NASA/TM-104823, NASA TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM: GUIDE FOR OXYGEN HAZARDS ANALYSES ON COMPONENTS AND SYSTEMS (OCT 1996)

NASA/TM-104823, NASA TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM: GUIDE FOR OXYGEN HAZARDS ANALYSES ON COMPONENTS AND SYSTEMS (OCT 1996)., The objective of this test plan is to describe the White Sands Test Facility oxygen hazards analysis to be performed on components and systems before oxygen is introduced and is recommended before implementing the oxygen component qualification procedure. The plan describes the NASA Johnson Space Center White Sands Test Facility method consistent with the ASTM documents for analyzing the hazards of components and systems exposed to an oxygen-enriched environment. The oxygen hazards analysis is a useful tool for oxygen-system designers, system engineers, and facility managers. Problem areas can be pinpointed before oxygen is introduced into the system, preventing damage to hardware and possible injury or loss of life.
