preset at 50 psi. Outlet is a DISS male connection. "Carrier
gas," usually oxygen, is supplied from a cylinder, large or small, in the
procedure room, on the anesthesia cart, or piped through the walls.
If you facility has "piped in" oxygen, you
will see either wall plate outlets, gas faucets or drop lines in your procedure
area.
If you do not have piped in oxygen, you will need to
have a cylinder in your procedure area. Standard sizes are "E" and
"H" Most facilities do not own the cylinders, they rent them from a
gas supplier
