Aeromedical Oxygen Sample Clauses

Aeromedical Oxygen. The Aircraft must be fitted with a minimum of two (2) oxygen supply outlets, one that is to be located above each patient’s head, and one as a permanent attachment for the ventilator, with the installation location to be approved by NASO. Each of the outlets must have an oxygen flow meter (minimum, two outlets). The outlets must have standard oxygen self-sealing outlets and must be capable of delivering a minimum flow rate of 20 litres per minute with a pressure of 400 KPa, to facilitate usage of mechanical ventilators. The supply and ongoing maintenance of oxygen must be at least 1490 (one thousand four hundred and ninety) litres. If the system requires a decant mechanism, this must be supplied by the Provider, and can be undertaken at any time. The pressure reduction system for the oxygen must be at the bulk supply to ensure that only low-pressure oxygen is piped through the Aircraft. A low-pressure electric solenoid on/off valve or manual on/off valve must be connected to the oxygen regulator, and be operated from the rear cabin. Oxygen fittings must be manufactured from stainless steel to U.S. MIL-T- 6845 standard or Inconel material with stainless steel fittings. A low-pressure alarm should be run through ICS or loud enough to be heard during normal aircraft operations as well as a visual alert that is located in an ergonomic position. A backup oxygen supply must be available in the cabin with a separate regulation system supplementing the normal Aircraft medical supply and be portable. Suitable stowage must be provided within the patient cabin area in a position approved by NASO. The supply and refilling of the backup medical oxygen supply will be the responsibility of the Provider. The Provider must provide a removable bracket for the provision of the ‘D’ oxygen cylinder and/or medical air. The design, installation and testing of the medical oxygen system must conform to ISO 7396-1:2016 or higher airworthiness standards as applicable. The oxygen fittings should be recessed where possible and positioned to preclude head-strike. The oxygen fittings must be recessed where possible and sealed against the trim in such a manner as to ensure no gaps that preclude adequate cleaning exist. An oxygen contents gauge and low-pressure oxygen alarm must be installed within the Aircraft cabin at a location easily visible to the medical seating positions.
