What should be paid attention to when using helium tank

There are many aspects in the use of helium tanks that need our attention. What about this? Because this is a low-temperature cold source gas, it is very likely to be dangerous to inhale helium during use. Once inhaled in our human body, the oxygen will be absorbed by helium immediately, which constitutes the human body’s hypoxia. These are common occurrences. , So be careful when using helium tanks!

Assuming that a lot of helium is inhaled, the oxygen in the body is replaced by helium, and then hypoxia occurs (that is, the respiratory reflex is driven by the excessive carbon dioxide in the receptor, and it is not active for hypoxia). The phenomenon is severe. The words will even show the circumstances of death. In addition, assuming that helium is directly inhaled from a high-pressure gas cylinder, its high flow rate will severely damage the arrangement of the lungs. Many high-pressure helium and oxygen can cause symptoms of high-pressure stress, but a small amount of nitrogen can deal with this problem. Many and prolonged inhalation of helium can cause brain damage and even death. There is also a small amount of helium in most French fries packaging bags, but don't worry, this is not harmful.

Emergency treatment for helium leak:

Assuming a leak occurs, the personnel in the leaked contaminated area should be quickly evacuated to the advantage, and blocked, and the income and expenditure should be severely tied up. It is recommended that emergency response personnel wear self-contained positive pressure respirators and work clothes for general operations. Stop the leak as much as possible. Properly ventilate to accelerate the dispersion. If possible, use it immediately. Leaking containers must be properly handled and can be used again after modification and inspection.
