Oxygen tube trailers

High pressure cylinders, tube trailers, and tank cars often serve as the storage supply for gaseous oxygen. Larger amounts of oxygen are frequently stored more economically in liquid form at the user s site. Standards to ensure safety with oxygen systems at user sites are set forth in publications of NFPA [10, 11, 12]. 

Gaseous oxygen at pressures up to 2640 psig (18 200 kPa) is shipped in tube trailers with capacities that may exceed 40 000 (1133 m ). 

By Highway In cylinders on trucks and in tube trailers. Liquid oxygen in insulated cylinders on trucks and cargo tanks. 

At least one pressure relief device is required on any compressed gas cylinder or trailer tube offered for transport of oxygen. A pressure relief device must be selected in accordance with CGA S-1.1, Pressure Relief Device Standards—Part 1—Cylinders for Compressed Gases, [14]...
