What do you usually use as gaskets in your quick connectors when filling with liquid?
Thread Content
I have a question for everyone: when filling, do you usually use copper gaskets for the filling connectors? Recently I’ve seen some drivers using pads; perhaps to achieve a better seal, they wrap electrical tape (the old type) around those pads, or sometimes Teflon tape. I’m not sure if this could pose any risks, especially when oxygen is being supplied. I usually don’t dare ask them to use it. I usually give them our own cushions. I hope everyone will discuss it.
A ring seal made of copper-based alloy is sufficient! ! There’s no need to use anything else! ! The sealing effect is great!
I want to know if electrical tape can react with liquid oxygen. Or it may explode or catch fire under specific conditions. I want to know what the level of risk is if it is used.
I don’t know either; please help out by replying
The old-style electrical wiring uses \"black tape\" and tetrafluoroethylene, both of which are flammable materials; combustion and explosions have occurred during the filling of liquid oxygen, and this can be verified. There is a risk involved; it must be used under certain conditions, and its use is generally not recommended. Problems are not inevitable.
When filling with liquid oxygen, it is best to use the specified gaskets; other homemade gaskets should be used with caution.
I didn’t know that yet! Could everyone please share their thoughts? Hehe
Ring seals made of copper-based alloys – the second floor is the correct choice!
It should be fine to wrap it with PTFE tape for night vision use; many gaskets at the inlet of oxygen pumps are made of asbestos board wrapped with PTFE tape, and there’s no problem with that
