prepare this guidance document for the appropriate selection, procurement, utilization and maintenance of oxygen concentrators. This document also focuses on guidance for the appropriate use and maintenance of oxygen concentrators in an effort to increase the availability, management and quality of oxygen concentrators and, ultimately, to
This document covers the technical specifications of the following products that make up medical oxygen systems: • Oxygen source-related: o oxygen generator plants (molecular sieve/swing adsorption technologies); o cylinder filling station (from on-site oxygen generator plants); o containerized housing for oxygen generation plant.
Nasal oxygen cannula with prongs: Plastic tubes shaped as two prongs used to deliver air/oxygen mixture into the nasal cavities, when connected to an oxygen source. This is a single-use, non-sterile device. Mask with reservoir bag: Face mask and tubing used to deliver medical oxygen directly to the upper airway of the patient.
This publication provides a guideline of the most important points of the medical oxygen supply system but does not include the pipeline distribution system in the healthcare facilities. This publication covers medical oxygen supply but does not include other gas supply systems.
The scope of this publication is for metal oxygen pipelines, distribution piping systems, and gaseous oxygen piping on an air separation plant external to the coldbox. The scope is limited to gaseous oxygen with a temperature range between –30 °C and 200 °C (–22 °F and 400 °F), pressures up to 21 MPa
• The main aim of this document is to set standards in practice to ensure that oxygen is administered, prescribed and stored safely. The principles apply to all medical gases, but for
• A cryogenic liquid oxygen tank which can be installed in a vertical or horizontal position. • Capacity typically ranges from 500 to 25,000 liters of liquid oxygen storage for health facility use. Larger capacity units can be custom built as needed. • The maximum allowable working pressure ranges from 1 to 37 atmospheres.
