Medical gas supply systems are a critical part of patient care in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Among medical gases, oxygen is one of the most widely used. Sourced from very large holding tanks installed outside of the hospital, oxygen is generally piped into patient rooms and other areas where it is needed on a regular basis.
When tanks need to be maintained, repaired, tested, replaced, or relocated due to construction, keeping a constant flow of oxygen into supply systems can be challenging. Until recently, to maintain oxygen supply during maintenance or construction, hospitals had to accept whatever equipment their gas supplier could patch together.
To address this situation proactively, Chart Industries has introduced a mobile hospital trailer to its product suite of engineered application solutions. Designed to provide an uninterrupted supply of liquid oxygen (LOX) to a medical facility, the mobile hospital trailer is a cost-effective solution for facilities that are switching over to a new LOX system due to construction, changing their gas supplier, or undergoing maintenance of their current LOX equipment. The system comprises a primary horizontal 3,000-gallon bulk tank, a reserve horizontal 900-gallon bulk tank, a three-circuit ambient vaporizer, a pressure control manifold, and full LED lighting — all mounted/loaded on a flatbed trailer.
