Inspection
Upon completion of the final rinse cycle, all parts should be removed from the parts
washing machine and visually inspected with both a bright white light and an ultraviolet
(“black”) light for any residual contamination. The item shall be observed to confirm the
absence of any contaminants including any oil, grease, detergent, moisture, lint, or other
foreign materials. If any material remains on the part after the final cleaning cycle, the part
shall be returned for a second round of pre-cleaning, final cleaning, and rinse.
If a part is processed through this cycle twice and continues to exhibit signs of
contamination, the part shall be noted as non-conforming and processed per the company
Control of Non-Conforming Material (QP-03).
Assembly, Handling, and Packaging
Once a part or assembly has been cleaned for oxygen service, it should be either
immediately assembled into the final assembly, or protected to prevent recontamination if
it will be put into storage.
Personnel handling O2 cleaned parts shall wear powder free Nitrile examination gloves.
When practical, internal cavities of assemblies and machines in process shall be capped,
closed or otherwise protected to prevent the introduction of contamination during the
assembly process.
If immediate use is not intended or is impractical, the O2 cleaned part will be packed in a
manner to prevent recontamination. Small to medium sized parts will be packaged in
sealed plastic bags. Larger assemblies will be bubble-wrapped or wrapped in foam
material, openings protected with caps and/or plugs, and then moved to final packaging in
boxes and/or crates.
When servicing O2 parts outside of the factory, field technicians must take care to handle
parts with nitrile gloves, and to thoroughly flush and degrease the parts prior to use.
Whenever practical, the parts should be cleaned and packaged following this process prior
to departure from the factory. A mechanical brush cleaning, followed by a flush with
copious amounts of isopropyl alcohol may be substituted for simple parts with no hidden
cavities. A visual inspection using a bright white and ultraviolet (“black”) must be
performed. Removal/purging of any residual IPA can be considered complete when the
solvent cannot be detected by appropriate methods
Labeling
Once a part or an assembly has been cleaned and packaged for oxygen service, it should
be labeled per the customer’s instructions, but at a minimum;

contain the statement “
Cleaned for Oxygen Service per EP002 Do
Not Open Until Ready to Use
”

Part Number

Date of cleaning or packaging

Date of Inspection with inspector’s mark
