Safe Use of Oxygen
Warning：
• High-pressure oxygen and combustible (lubricating grease, engine oil,
alcohol, etc.) may give rise to an explosion when they meet each other.
• Supply of oxygen in high concentration to a patient for a long time may
generate toxic effect. Patients differ in bearing duration due to age,
physical condition, etc. So please adopt proper way of ventilation
according to a patient's condition.
• Keep equipment and all joints clean and free from any engine oil or
lubricating grease.
• Before operating oxygen supply device, please wear a clean pair of
medical gloves.
• No open flame nearby equipment and related supporting facilities
Caution：
• While installing and replacing an oxygen cylinder, please manually screw
down knob switches on the oxygen cylinder and reducing valve. Do not
use any tool to prevent overexerting yourself from damaging thread and
sealing materials and leading to leakage.
• Please take measures to prevent an oxygen cylinder from toppling and
falling. A toppling and falling oxygen cylinder may damage reducing
valve or oxygen valve and even lead to an explosion in serious condition.
• Slowly open oxygen cylinder valve because it may give rise to sharp rise of
pressure to impact valve parts and result in their damage by opening
oxygen cylinder valve too intensely and quickly.
• Do not completely use up oxygen in the oxygen cylinder to prevent humid
air in surrounding environment from flowing into the oxygen cylinder to
corrode the oxygen cylinder.
