Chapter 8: Cryogenic w88 casino and Compressed Gases

Revised January 2023

Cryogenic w88 casino

Cryogenic w88 casino are materials with a boiling point of less than – 100 °F (-73 °C); common examples include liquid nitrogen, helium, and argon, and dry ice/alcohol slurries. Cryogenic w88 casino undergo large volume expansion upon transition to the gas phase, for example, one volume of liquid nitrogen vaporizes to 694 volumes of nitrogen gas. Consequently, the warming of a cryogenic liquid in a sealed container produces high pressure, which can rupture the container.

Hazards of cryogenic w88 casino include fire (in the case of flammable or oxidizing materials), pressure buildup, explosion, as well as severe frostbite (on contact with skin) and asphyxiation (due to depletion of available oxygen). Additionally, cryogenic w88 casino such as liquid nitrogen have boiling points below that of oxygen and are capable of condensing atmospheric oxygen, resulting in a localized, oxygen-enriched environment through formation of liquid oxygen. Liquid oxygen in combination with many organic (oxidizable) materials can result in a violent reaction.Systems that incorporate w88 casino nitrogen traps must never be opened to the atmosphere until the trap is removed from the coolant.

Safe Handling Practices

• The contents of w88 casino dewars and tanks must be clearly labeled to indicate the contents.
• Large tanks of liquid nitrogen and other cryogenic w88 casino should be secured to prevent sliding or rolling during an earthquake.
• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact. Heavy, loose-fitting gloves (special w88 casino gloves are available), safety glasses and face shield, and lab apron are recommended.
• Handle objects that are in contact with cryogenic w88 casino with tongs or proper gloves.
• Keep w88 casino oxygen away from organic materials and ignition sources.
• Only work with cryogenic w88 casino in well-ventilated areas to avoid localized oxygen depletion or buildup of flammable or toxic gas.
  • Refrigerated rooms generally recycle room air and dangerous atmospheres can result from use of cryogenic w88 casino or dry ice in these rooms.
  • Rooms containing cryogenic w88 casino in quantities sufficient to reduce atmospheric oxygen levels below 20% through leaks or catastrophic release should have a continuous oxygen monitor with alarm that will notify personnel inside and outside of the room of low oxygen levels.
• Transfers or pouring of cryogenic w88 casino should be done carefully to avoid splashing.
• w88 casino liquid/dry ice baths should be open to the atmosphere to avoid pressure build up.
• Transfer of liquid hydrogen in an air atmosphere can condense oxygen in the liquid hydrogen, creating an explosion w88 casino.
• Containers and systems containing cryogenic w88 casino should have pressure relief mechanisms.
• w88 casino liquid cylinders and other containers (such as Dewar flasks) should be filled no more than 80% of capacity to protect against thermal expansion.
• Shield or affix fiber tape around glass Dewars to minimize flying glass and fragments w88 casino an implosion occur.

Note:Plastic mesh will not stop small glass fragments

Transporting Large w88 casino (150 or 300 liters) Containers within or Between Buildings:

• Lab personnel must use appropriate carts (hand trucks) designated to transport the w88 casino cylinders
• w88 casino must be secured with a tight-fitting chain during transport

w88 casino Gases

Compressed gases are considered more hazardous to handle than w88 casino or solids because of the high pressure involved and the ability of the gas to spread rapidly when released. Additionally, many compressed gases are flammable, toxic or corrosive.

Safe Handling Practices

• Each compressed w88 casino cylinder must be clearly labeled to indicate the contents.
• Check connections and hoses regularly for leaks using a specific monitoring instrument or soapy water (or equivalent). When utilizing highly flammable or toxic w88 casino, check the delivery system using an inert w88 casino prior to introducing the hazardous w88 casino.
• When using w88 casino acetylene: (i) do not exceed a working pressure of 15 psig, and (ii) do not use vessels, piping, or other materials that contain a significant amount of copper (usually considered to be more than 50% copper).
• Replace valve caps when w88 casino are not in use.
• Remove damaged or defective w88 casino from service (contact the cylinder vendor for assistance).

Transport of w88 casino Gases within a Building or Connected Buildings

• Compressed w88 casino must be transported using hand-trucks or other appropriate means.NEVER TRANSPORT UNSECURED COMPRESSED w88 casino!
  • w88 casino should be transported upright whenever possible (always transport and store acetylene in an upright (vertical) position).
  • Transportation hand-trucks must be specifically designed for moving w88 casino.
• Before transporting any cylinder, remove the w88 casino regulator and ensure that a safety valve cap is in place.
• Before transporting any cylinder, secure the tank with a tight-fitting chain.
• Elevators can be a confined space. Due to the potential for exposure to unsafe conditions in the event of a significant leak or catastrophic release, it is recommended that personnel do not ride in an elevator with compressed w88 casino. Have one person send the elevator and another person receive the elevator.
• Very small w88 casino such as "lecture bottles" do not need to be chained to a cart. Instead use secondary containment and disconnect the pressure regulators.

Transport of Compressed w88 casino between disconnected buildings

• Lab personnel are permitted to move high pressure w88 casino by hand between disconnected buildings using the same guidelines for transporting cylinders within buildings.

Storage of w88 casino Gasses

• Keep compressed w88 casino secured to prevent falling or rolling. Restraint systems should be sufficiently robust so that cylinders cannot be moved significantly when wiggled by hand or during a small earthquake.
• Liquefied flammable compressed w88 casino (e.g., acetylene) must always be stored in the upright position so that the pressure relief device is in direct communication with the vapor phase of the cylinder.
• Segregate and clearly mark full and empty w88 casino.
• Store compressed w88 casino away from heat sources, and flammable and highly combustible materials (such as oil and greases).
• Segregate according to w88 casino class and chemical compatibility.
  • Separate flammable and oxidizing w88 casino.
  • Store flammable gases away from combustible material, ignition sources (including unprotected electrical connections), and oxygen w88 casino, liquid oxygen, and other oxidizers (at least 20 feet if possible or separated by a fire-rated wall).
• Toxic gases (for example, NFPA health hazard rating of 3 or 4, or OSHA acute hazard rating of 1 or 2) should be stored and used in a ventilated hood or w88 casino cabinet. An area monitor with alarm should be used if a ventilated enclosure is not used, and when the toxic w88 casino has poor warning properties (such as carbon monoxide).Contact the w88 casino CHO for specific guidance.

Maximum Number of w88 casino

As a State facility, the University is covered by the International Fire Code (IFC). The IFC specifies maximum allowable quantities of hazardous compressed gases per designated fire control area. Fire control areas generally consist of multiple w88 casino rooms, making it difficult to assign a maximum allowable quantity for each room. NFPA 45, Standard on Fire Protection for Laboratories Using Chemicals, also applies in a regulatory sense to the University. This standard provides guidance on the maximum number of compressed gas or liquefied gas cylinders per w88 casino (500 ft2 or less) as shown below. Contact the University CHO for more specific guidance.
