Different types of gas bottles are used within medical centers, laboratories, construction sites, etc. But the use and storage of gas bottles is associated with certain safety hazards. HCM guarantees that not only quality oxygen and nitrogen bottles are supplied but also the customers are educated on how to handle the bottles safely.
1. Safe Storage of Gas Bottles
Gas bottles have to be stored in an upright position at all times, in a dry and cool, and well ventilated location. Make sure that gas cylinders do not fall over, and remove them from heat sources. HCM suggests using strong racks to prevent bottles from rolling or falling.
2. Temperature limitations.
Low and high temperatures may be harmful by causing gas expansion and increasing pressure. HCM gas bottles may be exposed to extreme temperatures normally encountered in industries but great care should be taken not to expose gas bottles to direct sunlight in the storage places.
3. Safe Handling Instructions
Gas bottles should not be dropped or tilted during transportation. Aggravation of containers can be avoided by using a cart or a trolley. Recommended practices for heavy bottle lifting or lifting devices should be done. HCM gas bottles are equipped with tough cradle handles for safe transport and installation purposes.
4. Routine Check-ups and Maintenance
It is necessary to carry out routine checks on gas bottles every now and then to see if there are leaks, corrosion, or any signs of physical damage. It is also important to check the regulator, the valve, and the pressure gauge for its working condition. Further, HCM recommends timely maintenance according to the established practices of the industry to facilitate safe gases in use.
5. Compliance with the Instructions and Use of the Equipment Properly
All HCM gas bottles are labeled with an indication of the composition of gas and rules of its application. It is important that there is trained personnel that can interpret these labels and avoid errors in the application of gas, thereby reducing risks and increasing efficiency in gas application.
With the required education and proper procedures for dealing with gas bottles, storage and transportation of the bottles is effective and abuse free. HCM aims at giving high standards and reliable gas bottles, and always partners with clients to practice the best gas safety principles at the workplace.
