Hapetinsäiliöt

Hapetinsäiliöt are a type of storage tank specifically designed for the safe containment of oxygen. The term originates from Finnish, where "happi" means oxygen and "säiliö" means tank or container. These tanks are crucial in various industries and medical settings where a reliable supply of oxygen is necessary.

The primary function of hapetinsäiliöt is to store oxygen under pressure, allowing for its efficient transport and use. They are constructed from materials that can withstand high pressure and are resistant to oxidation, ensuring the integrity of the stored oxygen. Common materials include steel alloys.

Hapetinsäiliöt can be found in different forms. Portable cylinders are used for medical applications, such as providing respiratory support to patients, and for industrial uses like welding and cutting. Larger, stationary tanks are employed in hospitals, manufacturing plants, and chemical facilities where substantial quantities of oxygen are required on a continuous basis.

Safety is paramount in the design and use of hapetinsäiliöt. They are equipped with safety features like pressure relief valves to prevent over-pressurization and are subject to strict regulations and standards governing their manufacturing, testing, and handling. Proper maintenance and inspection are essential to ensure their continued safe operation and to prevent leaks or accidents.
