Reduce workplace risk with Compressed Gas Safety: For the Trades training focused on the three main types of compressed gases and their properties.
Compressed Gas Safety: For the Trades gives learners a practical foundation for making safer, more informed decisions. Key outcomes include the ability to describe the three main types of compressed gases and their properties, spot the hazards of compressed gas cylinders, and practice safe storage, transport, and use of gas cylinders. The material also helps learners describe the dangers of liquefied gases, cryogenic risks and asphyxiation. Practical examples connect the subject to routine tasks, expected procedures, and decisions employees may need to make on the job. Learners finish with a clearer understanding of what to look for, how to respond, and when to raise a concern or seek additional guidance.
The three types of compressed gases are liquefied gases, non-liquefied gases and dissolved gases.
Learners are taught that an unsecured cylinder that falls and has its valve snap off can become an unguided missile with enough force to launch through concrete walls, causing fatal injuries.
Liquefied gases can cause severe, deep-tissue frostbite almost instantly upon contact due to auto-refrigeration. They can also pose an asphyxiation hazard as they are often heavier than air and displace oxygen.
The cardinal rule is to keep all oil and grease away from oxygen fittings, as pressurized oxygen can cause these substances to spontaneously and violently combust.
The valve protection cap is designed to protect the delicate valve assembly, not to support the cylinder's weight. Lifting by the cap can cause it to break off, potentially dropping the cylinder and damaging the valve, which can turn it into a missile.
