With oxygen, cleanliness is part of safety.
High-pressure oxygen — cleanliness and safety
Oxygen is not a fuel, but it accelerates combustion. Haskel's article explains how oil residue, particles and compression heating can contribute to ignition. Dedicated cleaning and maintaining cleanliness during assembly and transport are part of oxygen-system design.
