High Standard Cleaning For Oxygen Service
Oxygen cleaning plays a vital role in the delivery of oxygen for the medical, pharmaceutical, and aerospace industry. Oxygen cleaning removes all traces of potentially hazardous contaminations, such as:
- Organic Residue (Dried Skin, Hair Follicles, Etc.)
- Grease & Oil
- Paper
- Fibers
- Dirt & Dust
- Solvents
- Rust
- Sand
- Weld Slag
Many of these contaminates are combustible or otherwise pose unacceptable risk to anyone utilizing an oxygen feed.

Why Would You Need Oxygen Cleaning?
While oxygen is in-and-of itself not flammable or explosive (except under compression), it acts as a combustion accelerator – meaning that it can turn even a tiny spark into a raging inferno. For obvious reasons, this is an unacceptable risk in the medical and pharmaceutical industries.
Other non-flammable materials, such as metal shavings or rust, risk causing injury or irritation to persons utilizing an oxygen feed as will likely aspirate any materials stirred up from a decompressing oxygen tank.
In the aerospace industry, improperly cleaned oxygen systems are even more dangerous. In a pressurized environment, such as the cabin of an airplane, a small spark resulting from poor oxygen cleaning can have instantaneous and catastrophic effect, putting the entire aircraft in jeopardy.
For these reasons, it is always suggested any and all oxygen system components be properly maintained including:
- Valves & Fittings
- Pipes, Tubes, & Hoses
- Assemblies
- Heater Coils
- Tanks & Vessels
- Housings
- Gages
Sub-par oxygen cleaning is never worth the very real and imminent danger it poses to life and health.
