6 sie 2024 · To calculate the oxygen tank duration, follow the steps below: Note the size of the oxygen tank. Use a chart to determine its conversion factor. Multiply it by the pressure of the tank. Divide the result by the oxygen tank flow rate. The result is the duration the oxygen in the tank will last.
This chart helps healthcare providers, patients, and caregivers choose the right tank based on the required oxygen flow rate, duration of use, and portability needs. Below is an example of a comprehensive oxygen tank size chart:
Nominal duration versus selected flowrate. cylinder duration times are approximate and are to be used as guidance. The cylinder contents gauge should.
NOTE: All duration times are provided by the manufacturer, and are estimates only. The times represent the maximum expected time. All LOX stationary times are for continuous flow with no portable fills. The times will be less when a LOX portable is filled from the stationary tank.
Need a quick estimate for how long your oxygen cylinder will last? The O2 To Go online calculator and app is free tool for patients, caregivers and technicians to use to quickly calculate the amount of ambulatory oxygen available.
· Duration times for portables are shown in hours. Reservoir duration times are shown in days. · Duration times for Demand Mode are based on 20 bpm and are shown in italic.
