Oxygen or compressed air should never be used because they contain moisture, and moisture reacts with oil in the system to for acids ( organic solids ) R12 R22 R502 R134a will hydrolyze ( a chemical reaction ) with water forming hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids and more water. Motor windings will deteriorate and metal corrosion and sludge can occur

Why does oxygen or compressed air never be used to pressurize a system?

Oxygen or compressed air should not be used to pressurize systems due to safety concerns, particularly the risk of combustion and explosion. Oxygen can significantly increase the flammability of materials, making even minor leaks hazardous. Additionally, compressed air can introduce moisture and contaminants into the system, potentially damaging equipment. Instead, inert gases like nitrogen are often used for safe pressurization.

When is a compressed oxygen delivery system recommended?

A compressed oxygen delivery system is recommended when a patient requires oxygen therapy for conditions such as hypoxemia, respiratory distress, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is often used when higher flow rates and concentrations of oxygen are needed to support the patient's respiratory function effectively.

When using nitrogen to pressurize a system you should?

Ensure that the system is rated for the pressure of the nitrogen being used, use the appropriate regulator to control the pressure, and always follow proper safety procedures to prevent over pressurization.


What do oxygen gauges read?

Oxygen gauges measure the pressure of oxygen in a compressed gas cylinder or system. The gauge indicates the level of oxygen available for use in medical, industrial, or scuba diving applications. It is important to monitor these levels to ensure safety and proper functioning of equipment.
