METABOLIC SIMULATOR TESTING SYSTEMS FOR AVIATION BREATHING EQUIPMENT

1991-04-01
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.

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.

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.

Minimum Standard for Gaseous Oxygen Pressure Reducers

2017-11-07
HISTORICAL
AS1248A
This standard applies to pressure reducers for gaseous breathing oxygen systems and for all performance profiles without regard to particular inlet or outlet pressures. Attention is given, however, to construction requirements for reducers with maximum supply pressures to 2250 psig (155 bar) and reduced pressures of 50 to 150 psig (3.4 to 10.5 bar).

HISTORICAL
AS1248
This standard is designed to cover all types of pressure reducers required for oxygen systems and for all performance profiles without regard for a particular inlet pressure or outlet pressure performance curve. Special attention will be given, however, to construction requirements essential in reducers where critical high initial oxygen pressures such as 1850 to 2250 psig (12.76 to 15.51 MN/m2 gauge) at 70° F (21.1° C) are involved.

HISTORICAL
AS1303A
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) applies to a portable chemical oxygen generator assembly intended for the following uses: a First aid treatment of aircraft occupants after an emergency descent following a decompression or other emergency condition. b Use by cabin attendants to maintain their mobility after a decompression.
