You "crack" an oxygen tank by opening the cylinder's main valve briefly to blow out contaminants from the main valve before attaching the regulator. This is done because contaminants inside the valve or at the valve outlet (dust, dirt, organic material, bugs, fragments of plastic from valve seats, etc.) act to initiate regulator fires and explosions ignited by heat from adiabatic compression of oxygen into the regulator when the oxygen main valve is first opened. These fires ignite the brass regulator itself and are very dangerous. They are avoided by keeping oxygen equipment clean, by cracking a new oxygen cylinder prior to use, and by opening the main valve slowly when a regulator is attached.
Typically, the minimum amount of PSI recommended in an oxygen tank before needing to be exchanged is around 500 PSI. This ensures that there is enough oxygen for safe use and prevents running out unexpectedly.
Oxygen is captured into tanks through processes like cryogenic distillation, pressure swing adsorption, or membrane technology. These methods involve separating oxygen from the air and compressing it into the tank for storage and later use.
Depends on the size of the tank, and the temperature and pressure of the gas. One common atmospheric temperature tank has an internal volume of 1.2 cubic feet, and they are commonly delivered at pressures of 2600 psi (or so). This gas source has a bit of water in it too. Another common delivery method is as a liquid in a dewar, and these are delivered by the unit weight, and they use atmospheric heat to boil the liquid oxygen. This gas source is usually very dry.

Oxygen tanks in dental offices are commonly green or white in color for easy identification and safety compliance.
Oxygen tank!
The tank would have probably have been distressed in the past. A hairline crack may not be visible for a long time, then suddenly appear, as if the crack appeared for no reason.
oxygen tank
There is NO Oxygen Sensor in the Gas Tank.....
no
Yes, a tank of oxygen can be half full. The oxygen would be stuck in said tank meaning no more oxygen can get in unless refueld.
well you can control the pressure of it but by level, that depends on how much oxygen is in the tank. the easiest way to change the pressure of oxygen can be by heating or cooling the tank.

Oxygen in an airplane is not carried in a tank, it is the result of a chemical reaction. The oxygen will last for approximately ten to fifteen minutes.
The weight of oxygen in a tank can vary based on its size and pressure. A standard medical oxygen tank, such as an E cylinder, typically contains around 680 grams of oxygen when filled to its full working pressure.
Oxygen needs to be compressed in a diver's tank to increase the amount of oxygen that can be stored in the tank. Compressing the gas allows divers to carry enough oxygen to sustain them while underwater for a longer period of time without the tank becoming too large and unwieldy.
