2. Oxygen tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_tank

   High pressure oxygen storage cylinder, colloquially referred to as an oxygen tank. Oxygen tanks are used to store gas for: medical breathing (oxygen therapy) at medical facilities and at home (high pressure cylinder) breathing at altitude in aviation, either in a decompression emergency, or constantly (as in unpressurized aircraft), usually in ...

3. Self-contained breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-contained_breathing...

   The air cylinder is commonly 4 liter, 6 liter, or 6.8 liter, but other sizes are also available. The endurance of the cylinder can be calculated from the volume, pressure and breathing rate of the user.

4. Medical gas supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_gas_supply

   Medical oxygen storage tanks at the Royal Women's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia. Oxygen may be used for patients requiring supplemental oxygen via mask. Usually accomplished by a large storage system of liquid oxygen at the hospital which is evaporated into a concentrated oxygen supply, pressures are usually around 345–380 kPa (50.0–55.1 psi), [1] [2] or in the UK and Europe, 4–5 bar ...

5. High altitude breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_altitude_breathing...

   Bottled oxygen, more broadly known as high pressure compressed oxygen, medical oxygen, and aviator's oxygen, is oxygen in small, portable, high-pressure storage cylinders. For aviation, the weight of the cylinder is usually not critical, and the choice of material may be affected by economic considerations such as purchase price and useful ...

6. Oxygen storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_storage

   Oxygen tanks containing pressures of up to 200 bar (3000 psi) are used for industrial processes including the manufacturing of steel and monel, welding and cutting, medical breathing gas, diving and as an emergency breathing gas in aircraft. A small steel tank of 16 litres water capacity with a working pressure of 139 bar (2015 psi), holds ...

7. Portable oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_oxygen_concentrator

   Portable oxygen concentrator used with bottle humidifier. POCs operate on the same principle as a home concentrator, pressure swing adsorption. [6] The basic set up of a POC is a miniaturized air compressor, a cylinder filled containing the sieve, a pressure equalizing reservoir and valves and tubes.
