Safety Manager's "Handling Compressed Gas Cylinders
in the Laboratory" Videotape Training Program examines
how gas cylinders "work", the hazards that are associated
with them and the need for caution when using or storing
a cylinder. The energy possessed by a compressed gas cylinder
can make it a virtual "missile" if it is not handled with
the utmost care. And a leaking cylinder or fitting can
lead to asphyxiation, a fire or even an explosion. Since
compressed gas cylinders are frequently used in many laboratories,
employees need to be familiar with the precautions that
should be taken when dealing with them.
