    How to use oxygen cylinders
    1 Be sure the flow regulator knob is set at zero
    2 Make sure the T-handle is tight.
    3 Place the cylinder wrench on the cylinder’s
    on/off valve, located at the top of the cylinder.
    4 Open the valve by turning it counterclockwise one full turn. As the valve opens,
    the gauge on the regulator will show the
    amount of pressure in the cylinder. A full
    cylinder will read about 2000 psi (pounds per
    square inch).
    5 Adjust the flow regulator knob to the flow
    rate your doctor prescribed.
    6 Attach tubing to the nipple adaptor on the
    regulator.

    Very helpful, thank you. Editorial note, the language you used to describe a fallen and busted open Oxygen tank was a bit soft. My Oxygen manual that they gave us describes as “it may become a deadly projectile”. Much clearer about the safety risks 😅

    You missed commenting on the most important part and that is the small brass in river washer that sits over the pin that connects to the oxygen tank. If you are missing that washer or it’s worn out all the oxygen will blow out past the valve you need to double check when you get the regular that you only have, the washer installed but spare and they always come in a bag when a regulator ships. I keep a small bag of those brass and rubber washers that I buy off Amazon close to our oxygen tanks and oxygen can be a lifesaver and an emergency.

    New to using oxygen and am still uncertain what the correct method is to Turn off the oxygen tank, I was told to do the following:
    1st turn off
    wait until there's no hissing sound
    Then turn dial to 0
    Is this correct? Thanks in advance

    • @RNScrub
      @RNScrub  Рік тому +1

      Correct but I believe it’s so the remaining oxygen gets expelled out and doesn’t force pressure inside the tank

      Did you rely on the regulator's standard? Or there is a reference that stipulates filling the cylinder In my opinion, the cylinder should be changed if the pressure reaches 1000 psi It is considered a waste because only 50% was used
