*NOTE: The CGA (Compressed Gas Association), US Navy, UK’s HSE and the EIGA (European Industrial Gas Association) all recommend that breathing gasses with an oxygen content of 23.5% or higher should be treated as 100% oxygen. However, some technical training agencies still use 40% as the maximum percentage that is allowed for equipment that is not in oxygen service.
AP Diving advises to err on the side of safety, and to use the value of 23.5% as the cutoff percentage beyond which the equipment must be in oxygen service.
