Medical Gas Cylinder Storage

Medical Gas Cylinder Storage

The storage of oxygen cylinders is an important issue in a range of workplaces, including the medical industry.

Oxygen cylinders are used for a range of applications including medical assistance and first aid. However, oxygen is a very reactive gas and may cause or intensify fires when in contact with incompatible substances or heat.

Compliant Medical Gas Storage

The medical oxygen storage requirements may be found in the Australian Standard AS 4332 - The storage and handling of gases in cylinders. Storage of medial oxygen cylinders must control the risks of oxygen cylinders falling over, becoming airborne, suffering impact damage or leaking gas.

Choosing the appropriate Medical Gas Cylinder Storage is important for the safety of your staff, patients and community. According to the Australian Standard, it's essential to store cylinders upright with attachments removed and valves closed. Medical oxygen cylinders must also be individually restrained with chains or safety straps to ensure safety.
