✦ Synopsis

The purpose of this manual is to provide a practical set of guidelines for safe oxygen system design, storage, handling, and usage. The intent of the book is to provide enough information so that it can be used alone but, at the same time, to reference data sources that can provide much more detail if required. Designers, users, operators, maintainers, quality assurance personnel, insurance and safety inspectors, and project managers will find guidelines in this manual for incorporation into their projects or facilities.
