Most operations in laboratories today involve the use of increased (or decreased) temperatures and/or pressures. Both pressures above and below ambient values present a hazard potential in the laboratory. The hazard potentials include:

This course enables the student to better understand the considerations necessary for safe operation of pressurized or reduced pressure operations by examining the physical considerations of compressed gases, identifying laboratory pressure hazard operations. It also reviews handling, use and storage practices of compressed gases and considers vacuum work and apparatus. Common equipment designed to protect the user from the hazards of pressure and vacuum are reviewed in detail.

Photographs accompany each recommendation. Specific lists are given for each handling practice. Instructions are given in thorough detail.
