Functional Testing Leak-test the assembled component with oxygen-compatible leak-check solution while component is being pressurized with clean, dry air or nitrogen. Apply final operational tests as required at rated pressure and flow rate. ) Packaging Items cleaned for oxygen service are double-bagged as soon as possible after cleanliness verification is obtained. The inner bag protects the cleanliness of the part. The outer bag is used primarily as a vapor barrier and to protect the inner bag.

Avoid condensation on external surfaces because the cryogen can freeze water and other vapors and create falling ice or other hazards. 4. Avoid condensation on internal surfaces because the cryogen can freeze water and other vapors. a. Long-term storage of LOX and extended cyclic fill operations may concentrate low volatile impurities in the storage containerf as a result of the loss of oxygen by boiloff. Therefore, the oxygen used on the basis of the original specifications may not be satisfactory.

These safety shutoff valves should never be used for flow control. Manually operated main shut-off valves should also be used to isolate the trailers and to control flow, if required. Manual bypass valves should be provided around manual pipeline valves to equalize pressure in a controlled manner for configurations or systems where it is necessary to reduce adiabatic compression, pressure surge, or high flow velocity across controlling elements. Valves that, from a safety viewpoint, are suitable for high-pressure GOX service may also be suitable for highpressure LOX service.
