Keeping this in consideration, can oxygen and acetylene be transported together?
Use a well-ventilated vehicle to transport acetylene. Many acetylene cylinders are collected and transported in unventilated vehicles. If acetylene cylinders have been transported or stored horizontally, allow them to stand vertically for at least 30 minutes before use.
Additionally, what happens when you mix oxygen and grease? Oxygen under pressure and hydrocarbons (oil and grease) can react violently, resulting in explosions, fire, and injury to personnel and damage to property. Never allow oil or grease to come into contact with oxygen under pressure.
Subsequently, question is, what should my oxygen and acetylene be set at?
Check the manufacturer’s instructions, but generally the acetylene should be set to about 10 psi and the oxygen should be set to about 40 psi.
When using oxygen and acetylene cylinders open the valves?
Always keep cylinders in an upright position. Oxygen cylinder valves must be opened all the way. Do not open acetylene cylinder valves more than 1 turn (1/4 to 1/3 is usually enough). Turn pressures into gauges gradually.
