require servicing and maintenance. Various procedures and requirements to perform these functions are covered in this section. Leak Testing Gaseous Oxygen Systems Leaks in a continuous-flow oxygen system may be difficult to detect because the system is open ... flow of oxygen allows pressure to build and leak check procedures can be followed that are similar to those used in the high-pressure sections of the systems. Detection of leaks should be performed with oxygen-safe leak check fluid…

flush new tubing. Tubing should be blown or baked dry before installation. Follow the manufacturer’s procedures for cleaning oxygen system components. Some oxygen components make use of tapered pipe fittings. This type of connection is usually sealed with ... This prevents any tape from coming loose and entering the oxygen system. Prevention of Oxygen Fires or Explosions Precautions must be observed when working with or around pure oxygen. It readily combines with other substances, some in a violent…

Figure 16-28. An oxygen blowout plug on the side of the fuselage indicates when pressure relief has occurred and should be investigated. Chemical oxygen systems are unique in that they do not produce the oxygen until it is time ... used. This allows safer transportation of the oxygen supply with less maintenance. Chemical oxygen-generating systems also require less space and weigh less than gaseous oxygen systems supplying the same number of people. Long runs of tubing, fittings, regulators…
