Analysis of the cause of the explosion of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber

Hyperbaric oxygen chambers will not explode under normal use conditions, but if they are improperly operated or the equipment has safety hazards, accidents may occur. The specific cause of the accident in the United States is still under investigation, but it may involve the following key factors:
  • Excessive oxygen concentration:
Hyperbaric oxygen chambers usually provide a 100% pure oxygen environment. In a closed and pressurized environment, oxygen is easily absorbed and can support combustion.
  • Electrical equipment failure:
Non-explosion-proof electrical appliances may generate electric sparks and cause fires.
  • Aging or damage to the cabin:
If the airtightness of the oxygen chamber decreases or the material ages, the risk of explosion may increase.
  • Improper operation:
If the user carries flammable items (such as alcohol, perfume, and cosmetics) or uses electronic equipment in the cabin, it may also cause a fire.
