Can Private Cars Carry Medical Oxygen?
1 Answers
According to regulations, private cars are not allowed to carry oxygen cylinders of any type. Traffic laws stipulate that regardless of the purpose, oxygen cylinders are not permitted in vehicles. If traffic police find them during inspections, fines may be imposed. It is best not to carry them. If there is a genuine urgent need, it is advisable to obtain a certificate from a formal hospital to explain to the traffic police when necessary. Otherwise, this would be considered as carrying hazardous materials. Below is additional information: 1. Introduction to Medical Oxygen Cylinders: Medical oxygen refers to oxygen with a concentration reaching 99.5%, meeting quality requirements. 2. Principle: By opening the oxygen supply switch, the high-pressure oxygen in the cylinder passes through a pressure reducing valve and is finely adjusted via a flow control switch to output the required flow rate. Connecting the oxygen tube, humidifier, oxygen tube, and nasal cannula allows for oxygen delivery.
