What is industrial oxygen?
Industrial-grade oxygen (O₂) filled in high-pressure cylinders, used for gas cutting and welding of metals, boosting combustion and heat, and factory processes. It is not for use on patients.
What are “1.5 m³” and “6 m³” oxygen cylinders?
They are the approximate gas contents of 1.5 and 6 cubic metres (1,500 and 6,000 litres) at filling pressure.
Which gas is used for TIG welding?
Mainly pure argon, suitable for stainless steel, aluminium and copper.
Which gas is used for MAG welding of carbon steel?
100% CO₂ or an argon+CO₂ mixture (a popular mix is Ar 80% / CO₂ 20%). Mixed gas usually gives less spatter and a neater bead, but costs more than pure CO₂.
What is dry ice?
It is carbon dioxide (CO₂) in solid form, at about −78.5 °C. When it warms up it sublimates directly into gas without becoming water.
What is dry ice used for?
To keep seafood, fresh produce, ice cream and frozen food cold in transit, and to create white fog at events and shows.
How should gas cylinders be stored?
Upright and firmly secured to a wall or rack, with the valve cap on when not in use, away from heat and direct sun, in a well-ventilated place.
Why must oil or grease never be used on oxygen cylinders?
Because oxygen makes oil and grease ignite or explode far more easily.
