The cylinder data card indicates the water capacity, dimensions, empty weight, gas capacity and valve type. The indicated cylinder colours are those specified in BS EN 1089-3 and ISO 32. Other countries do not necessarily use the same colours and care should be taken to identify correctly gas cylinders brought into the UK from overseas. All BOC cylinders are fitted with a colour coded and date marked test ring under the cylinder valve. This allows BOC to identify cylinders requiring internal inspection or hydraulic testing before refilling.
BOC Medical is a trading name used by operating companies within The BOC Group, the parent company of which is The BOC Group PLC.
Suitable for use in MRI environment. Most common cylinders used within the hospital. Specialist use cylinders used within the hospital. Other medical cylinders used within the hospital.
(1) Domicillary use only.
The stripe symbol and the words BOC and Entonox are registered BOC Group trademarks.
NOTES:
* The indicated cylinder is for specialised applications and availability is restricted. ** Vapour pressure of liquified gas at 15 degrees celcius. *** Integral valve features a live content gauge, on/off handwheel, built-in flowmeter and regulator. Schraeder outlets are product specific to accept probes to BS 5682. **** Always identify the cylinder content by the information on the label.
