						pressure and equivalent safety is provided. The use of regulators or automatic
						pressure-reducing valves shall be limited to the pressures and the types of
						gases for which they were designed. Regulators are required for installations
						where a fuel gas hose is between fuel source and burner.

(a) Fuel gas hose and oxygen hose shall be
					 easily distinguished from each other. Note: The contrast may be made by
					 different colors or by surface characteristics readily distinguishable by the
					 sense of touch.
(b) A single hose
					 having more than 1 gas passage shall not be used as a connection between torch
					 and gas outlet if a wall failure would permit the flow of either gas into the
					 other passage.
(c) Hoses used for
					 liquefied petroleum gas, such as butane or propane, shall be of, or lined with,
					 materials that are resistant to the action of LP-Gas. They shall be designed
					 for a bursting pressure of at least 1,250 psi, and shall be marked every 5 feet
					 with the letters "LPG." Hoses over ½ inch diameter shall also be marked
					 with the manufacturer's name.
(d)
					 The connection between fuel source and burner shall be with extra heavy steel
					 pipe (Schedule 80), flexible metallic tubing or hose suitable for the service,
					 and where exposed shall be protected against physical damage.
(e) When not in use, manifold and header hose
					 connections shall be capped. As used in this subsection, "manifold" means a
					 device used to connect the outlets of one or more gas cylinders to a central
					 piping system, and "header" means a pipe or duct through which liquid or gas is
					 conveyed and supplied to or received from multiple branches.
(f) When parallel sections or oxygen and fuel
					 gas hose are taped together, not more than 4 inches out of 12 inches shall be
					 covered by tape.
(g) Hose couplings
					 shall be of the type that cannot be unlocked or disconnected by means of a
					 straight pull without rotary motion.

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) No device or attachment facilitating or
					 permitting mixture of air or oxygen with combustible gases prior to
					 consumption, except at the burner or in a standard torch or blowpipe, shall be
					 allowed unless approved for the purpose.
(b) Acetylene shall not be generated or
					 utilized at a pressure in excess of 15 pounds per square inch gauge pressure.
EXCEPTION: Acetylene dissolved in suitable solvent and
						stored in cylinders manufactured according to Interstate Commerce Commission
						requirements.
(c) Oxygen
					 cylinders and fittings shall be kept away from oil or grease. Cylinders,
					 cylinder caps and valves, couplings, regulators, hose, and apparatus shall be
					 kept free from oil or greasy substances and shall not be handled with oily
					 hands or gloves. Oxygen shall not be directed at oily surfaces, greasy clothes,
					 or within a fuel oil or other storage tank or vessel.
(d) Hose piping systems, apparatus, and
					 fittings shall not be used.
(e)
					 Oxygen shall never be used from a cylinder or cylinder manifold unless a
					 pressure-reducing device intended for use with oxygen, and so marked, is
					 provided.
(f) Acetylene shall never
					 be brought into contact with unalloyed copper except in a blowpipe or
					 torch.
(g) Cylinders not having
					 fixed hand wheels shall have keys, handles or nonadjustable wrenches on valve
					 stems while these cylinders are in service. In multiple cylinder installations
					 only one key or handle is required for each manifold.
(h) Cylinders shall never be used as rollers
					 or supports whether full or empty.
(i) Compressed oxygen shall not be used for
					 ventilation, testing, or similar purposes different from its intended function
					 in welding and burning.
(j) A dry
					 chemical or carbon dioxide fire extinguisher rated at least 10 B:C shall be
					 kept near operations where bottled fuel gases are being used.
(k) LP-Gas vessels shall be kept in a
					 position so that the safety relief valve is in direct contact with the vapor
					 space in the vessel at all times.
(l) When operations are suspended for any
					 substantial period of time, such as during lunch or overnight, gas cylinders
					 shall be shut off. The torch and hose shall be removed from the confined space.
					 Upon completion or discontinuance of welding operations, the welder shall warn
