How to Avoid Risk of Ignition When Oxygen is Present in Valve Applications
Download the White Paper
Manufacture of cryogenic valves where oxygen is present requires careful adherence to strict BAM and DIN standards to avoid ignition during use. It is well known that oils and grease can spontaneously ignite and burn explosively in atmospheres which are enriched with oxygen.
In this white paper, you'll learn:
- Precautions to take to prevent ignition.
- Recommendations for choosing cryogenic valves for use in applications where oxygen is present.
- Tips for inspecting valves before use.
- Suitable materials and parts.
- Valve cleaning procedures.
