Medical use liquid oxygen airgas tanks are typically 2.4 MPa (350 psi). [citation needed] All equipment coming into contact with high pressure oxygen must be "oxygen clean" and "oxygen compatible", to reduce the risk of fire. [3] [4] "Oxygen clean" means the removal of any substance that could act as a source of ignition. "Oxygen compatible ...
The cylinders used were dural light-alloy cylinders holding 800 litres or RAF steel wire-wound cylinders holding 1,400 litres of oxygen (both at 3,300 p.s.i.; 227.5 bar or 22.75 MPa). The expedition had 8 closed-circuit and 12 open-circuit sets; the open-circuit set used 1 RAF cylinder or 1, 2 or 3 dural cylinders; with total set weight 28 lb ...
An oxygen tank is especially dangerous because the gas is stored at a pressure of 21 MPa (3,000 psi; 210 atm)) when full. If the tank falls over and damages the valve, the tank can be jettisoned by the compressed oxygen escaping the cylinder at high speed. Tanks in this state are capable of breaking through a brick wall. [19]
The dress was a viral phenomenon, which was either seen as blue and black or as white and gold. Its true colours were eventually confirmed to be blue and black. [2] Ebbinghaus illusion: The Ebbinghaus illusion, or Titchener circles, is an optical illusion of relative size perception. The two orange circles are exactly the same size; however ...
This is a big advantage in mobile emergencies. The option to fill standard oxygen cylinders (e.g., 50 L at 200 bar = 10,000 L each) with high-pressure boosters, to ensure automatic failover to previously filled reserve cylinders and to ensure the oxygen supply chain, e.g., in case of power failure, is given with those systems.

When BOC was a global company, the head office of BOC was in Windlesham, a small village approximately 25 miles south-west of London.The office, built in the 1980s is a fine example of modern architecture and when seen from the air resembles the shape of an oxygen molecule.
