That's called "covering their asses" ANYTHING is fine up to 40% If it's not clean enough to use with 40%, it's not clean enough to use with air. If you will be using it with levels higher than 40%, then it needs special treatment and should be dedicated to nitrox, oxygen, and air service when the air is up to nitrox standards. --- Rich http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ |
