Abstract

This publication documents the minimum requirements for the safe preparation of compressed oxidant-fuel gas mixtures in cylinders by static methods (addition of one component after another in cylinders). The publication specifically addresses: • key principles for compressed oxidant-fuel gas mixture manufacture; • manufacturing feasibility studies; • gas mixing equipment, filling, and analysis; and • the audit of oxidant-fuel gas mixture manufacturing procedures and operations. This publication specifically describes the manufacture of compressed oxidant-fuel gas mixtures under the conditions of gas temperatures and pressures detailed within this publication. The manufacture of liquefied and liquid oxidant-fuel gas mixtures is outside of the scope of this publication. This publication shall be used in conjunction with the information and principles contained in CGA P-36, The Safe Preparation of Gas Mixtures [1].1 Purpose The purpose of the publication is to describe practices to be used for the safe preparation of compressed oxidant-fuel gas mixtures and to ensure that they are non-explosive at the end of the manufacture. • Safe formulation of compressed oxidant-fuel gas mixture by trained and competent personnel; • Defined safety considerations, which are applied and maintained during the manufacturing process; and • Overall quality system with formally approved documented procedures shall be used for manufacture and these procedures and practices shall be subject to the regular technical review and audit by technical experts independent of the routine production process. 1 References are shown by bracketed numbers and are listed in order of appearance in the reference section.
