Passenger Hypoxia Protection Utilizing Oxygen Enriched Gas Mixtures
2018-10-18
CURRENT
AIR6036
Currently, existing civil aviation standards address the design and certification of oxygen dispensing devices that utilize oxygen sources supplying at least 99.5% oxygen. This Aerospace Information Report discusses issues relating to the use in the passenger cabin of oxygen enriched breathing gas mixtures having an oxygen content of less than 99.5% and describes one method of showing that passenger oxygen dispensing devices provide suitable hypoxia protection when used with such mixtures.

HISTORICAL
ARP4259
This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) describes test equipment and methods used for testing closed cycle or semi closed cycle breathing devices of short duration that are designed to operate with a high partial pressure of oxygen in the breathing circuit. It is intended to supplement ARP1109 and ARP1398 for applications involving closed cycle or semiclosed cycle breathing equipment which may be evaluated to the requirements of AS8031 and/or AS8047.

Regulator Oxygen Diluter Demand, Automatic Pressure Breathing
1997-10-01
CURRENT
AS1194
To define optimum standards of design, construction and performance for Diluter Demand, Automatic Pressure Breathing, Oxygen Regulators. AS 861, 'Minimum General Standards for Oxygen Systems,' is applicable as supplemented by this specification. This document supersedes in part AS 463, 12-15-56, which is cancelled. This specification covers two types of Diluter Demand, Automatic Pressure Breathing, Oxygen Regulators for use in civil type aircraft. The intent is that the regulators be of two configurations, operable at inlet pressures of 40 to 90 psig and 50 to 150 psig.

Oxygen Considerations for High Elevation Airport Operations (HEAO)
2021-08-26
CURRENT
AIR6829
This document covers information concerning the use of oxygen when flying into and out of high elevation airports for both pressurized and non-pressurized aircraft. Oxygen requirements for pressurized aircraft operating at high altitudes have for decades emphasized the potential failures that could lead to a loss of cabin pressurization coupled with the potential severe hypoxic hazard that decompressions represent. This document is intended to address the case where the relationship between cabin and ambient pressures are complicated by operations at high terrestrial altitudes. Operators who fly into these high-altitude airports should address the issues related to this environment because it carries the potential for insidious hypoxia and other conditions which can affect safety. It provides information to consider in developing operational procedures to address hypoxia concerns consistent with regulatory mandates.

Oxygen Sensor Technologies
2020-12-18
CURRENT
AIR5933
AIR5933 provides an overview of contemporary technologies (i.e., sensors) that measure the proportion of oxygen in a gas. The use of these sensors in the aerospace environment, with its special constraints, is discussed and papers/reports with detailed information are summarized and referenced. The sensors are divided into expendable and non-expendable sensors. Expendable sensors are based on electrochemical properties, whereas non-expendable sensors rely on paramagnetic, photo-acoustic, electromagnetic, and laser spectroscopy properties.

Determination of Chlorine in Oxygen from Solid Chemical Oxygen Generators
2011-06-21
HISTORICAL
ARP1320A
This ARP covers a procedure to be used in the determination of 0.05 to 0.3 ppm of chlorine in oxygen from any type of generator used for emergency or other life-support systems. The methyl orange method described can be considered as a referee technique. Instrumental analysis is also given in Section 8.

Chemical Oxygen Supplies
2012-10-08
HISTORICAL
AIR1133A
Solid chemical oxygen supplies of interest to aircraft operations are "chlorate candles" and potassium superoxide (KO2). Chlorate candles are used in passenger oxygen supply units and other emergency oxygen systems, such as submarines and escape devices. Potassium superoxide is not used in aircraft operations but is used in closed-cycle breathing apparatus. Characteristics and applications of both are discussed, with emphasis on chlorate candles.

Provisions of Medical Oxygen for Aircraft Occupants
2017-01-18
WIP
AIR6190A
This document provides information on provisions for passengers with disabilities on board commercial aircraft. In this context the term "provision of medical oxygen" shall be understood as application of oxygen on board an aircraft not linked to (post) decompression in the sense of Airworthiness Requirements FAR/CS 25 and Operational Regulations of FAR 121/135. Information about available equipment and physiological treatment in clinical practice will be provided in this document. It covers the use of oxygen concentrators according to guidance of FAR Advisory Circular AC120-95.
