Why do you let the extra oxygen bleed out of a tank?

When "bleeding" an oxygen tank, you are releasing excess pressure stored in the regulator, not the tank itself. If the excess pressure remains, it can damage the regulator, and the guage needle can get stuck, giving an inaccurate reading of how much oxygen remains in the tank.


When is A Medical oxygen tank empty?

In general any pressurized gas container is "empty" when the pressure inside is equal to ambient air pressure. There is still gas in the container, but not enough pressure to expell the gas. Medical oxygen tanks should never be allowed to go below 200psi. The tank is considered empty at this point and should be replaced.
