==Oxygen Flush==
 
The emergency oxygen flush receives oxygen directly from the oxygen source and thereby bypassing the vapouriser. It delivers oxygen at a high flowrate and so care should be taken when used e.g. should never be used when connected to a patient.

==Oxygen Failure Alarm==
 
==Oxygen Failure Alarm==
 
This alarm sounds when oxygen pressures fall, e.g. when a cylinder is empty indicating it's need to be changed over. It should ideally also prevent nitrous oxide delivery also if being used.
