Types of Piping for Medical Gas Systems‌
Medical gas piping systems require specialized materials and designs to ensure safety, hygiene, and reliability. Key specifications include:

Material Standards‌

Copper Alloy Pipes‌: Widely used due to corrosion resistance and compliance with standards like ‌GB (China)‌ and ‌DIN (Germany)‌ for high-pressure gas delivery‌.
Seamless Copper/Stainless Steel Pipes‌: Required for central oxygen supply and vacuum systems, adhering to ‌BS EN 737-3‌ and ‌JIS T7101-2006‌ for compressed medical gases‌.

Design Parameters‌

Pressure Classification‌: Designed for ‌high-pressure (≥10 MPa)‌ applications to maintain gas purity and flow stability‌.
Cross-Section Shape‌: Circular pipes ensure uniform gas distribution and minimize contamination risks‌.

Connection and Installation‌

Threaded Connections‌: Ensure leak-proof joints, critical for maintaining system integrity‌.
Modular Components‌: Prefabricated manifolds and terminal units simplify installation and maintenance‌.

Safety and Compliance‌

Systems must meet ‌ISO 7396-1‌ standards for pipeline networks, with rigorous testing for leaks and pressure stability‌.

These specifications ensure medical gas systems deliver oxygen, nitrogen, and other therapeutic gases safely and efficiently in hospitals and clinics.
