| Question | Answer |

| The primary difference between aviation breathing oxygen and other types of commercially available compressed oxygen is that? | aviation breathing oxygen has had all the water vapor removed. |

| For use in pressurized aircraft, which is generally the least complicated and requires the least maintenance? | Chemical oxygen generator systems. |
| Which of the following are characteristics of a chemical or solid-state oxygen system? | A volume storage capacity about three times that of compressed oxygen and system generators that are inert below 400°F, even under severe impact. |
| If a high-pressure oxygen cylinder is to be installed in an airplane, it must meet the specifications of the? | Department of Transportation. |
| What test is used to determine the serviceability of an oxygen cylinder? | Pressure test with water. |
| Which oxygen system employs a regulator that operates only when the user inhales? | Demand-flow system. |
| How often should standard weight high-pressure oxygen cylinders be hydrostatically tested? | Every 5 years. |
| To be eligible for recharging, a DOT 3HT oxygen cylinder must have been hydrostatically tested every three years and be retired from service after? | 24 years or 4,380 filling cycles. |
| An aircraft oxygen bottle may be considered airworthy if it has been hydrostatically tested and identified? | with the test date, DOT number, and serial number stamped on the cylinder near the neck. |
