Lesson 50 · Sterile Storage, Transport and Inventory Management
An empty gas cylinder still stands upright and chained, and a cylinder's color is not its label.
In this lesson
Store every compressed gas cylinder upright and chained, empty or full, move it with its protective cap in place and never rolled or dragged, keep medical grade gas apart from industrial grade where your facility receives medical gas deliveries, as FDA recommends, and name a medical gas from its label, treating a cryogenic container's fitting that will not connect as a safeguard that FDA says should not be changed.
