Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1)
Definitions.
As used in this section: A bulk oxygen system is an
				  assembly of equipment, such as oxygen storage containers, pressure regulators,
				  safety devices, vaporizers, manifolds, and interconnecting piping, which has
				  storage capacity of more than 13,000 cubic feet of oxygen, normal temperature
				  and pressure (NTP), connected in service or ready for service, or more than
				  25,000 cubic feet of oxygen (NTP) including unconnected reserves on hand at the
				  site. The bulk oxygen system terminates at the point where oxygen at service
				  pressure first enters the supply line. The oxygen containers may be stationary
				  or movable, and the oxygen may be stored as gas or liquid.
(2)
Location.
(a)
General.
You must locate
				  bulk oxygen storage systems shall be located above ground out of doors, or in a
				  building of noncombustible construction, adequately vented, and used for that
				  purpose exclusively. The location selected must be such that containers and
				  associated equipment must not be exposed by electric power lines, flammable
				  liquid or gas lines.
(b)
Accessibility.
The system must be located so that it is readily
				  accessible to mobile supply equipment at ground level and to authorized
				  personnel.
(c)
Leakage.
Where oxygen is stored as a liquid, you must provide
				  noncombustible surfacing in an area in which any leakage of liquid oxygen might
				  fall during operation of the system and filling of a storage container. For
				  purposes of these standards, asphaltic or bituminous paving is considered to be
				  combustible.
(d)
Elevation.
When locating bulk oxygen systems near above ground flammable
				  liquid storage which may be either indoors or outdoors, it is advisable to
				  locate the system on ground higher than the flammable liquid storage.
(e)
Dikes.
Where it is necessary
				  to locate a bulk oxygen system on ground lower than adjacent flammable liquid
				  storage you must take suitable means (such as by diking, diversion curbs, or
				  grading) with respect to the adjacent flammable liquid storage to prevent
				  accumulation of liquids under the bulk oxygen system.
