Do not store oxygen with any other gases except gaseous nitrogen or gaseous carbon dioxide. Do not store liquid nitrogen with helium, hydrogen or oxygen. Gloves should be loose fitting, so that they can be removed quickly if liquids are spilled into them. Wear safety glasses, if spraying or splashing is likely a face shield should be worn. Cuffless trousers should cover the top of and remain outside of boots or work shoes.
Cryogenic gases are capable of displacing air necessary for respiration and causing asphyxiation.
Never allow any unprotected part of the body to touch uninsulated pipes or vessels that contain cryogenic fluids. Use tongs to withdraw objects immersed in a cryogenic liquid. Perform operations slowly to minimize boiling and splashing when charging a warm condenser or when inserting objects into a cryogenic liquid. Remove all combustible materials from the area, especially oil or gasses when handling liquid oxygen. Change and air all clothing that has been splashed with liquid oxygen immediately.
