Yes, scuba cylinders can be cleaned and they are if they are going to be used with oxygen enriched air (i.e. nitrox). There is a debate whether they need to be cleaned if used for "low" oxygen nitrox if the nitrox is premixed.
Yes, nitrox is an oxidizer. It contains a higher percentage of oxygen than normal air, which can increase the risk of oxygen toxicity if not used properly. Nitrox is commonly used in scuba diving to extend bottom time and reduce the risk of decompression sickness.
Nitrox is just oxygen enriched air.If you used pure oxygen, it would be toxic past a depth of 20 feet / 6 meters.
get a 6oz or 12oz or bigger bottle of NOS(nitrox)
The gas commonly mixed with oxygen for diving is nitrogen. This mixture is called Nitrox or Enriched Air Nitrox, and it helps reduce the risk of decompression sickness when diving at certain depths.
Yes, the ScubaPro MK16 first stage and S550 second stage can be used with Nitrox up to 40% oxygen. However, it is recommended to have the equipment cleaned and serviced regularly to ensure safe use with high oxygen content mixes. Be sure to follow all manufacturer guidelines and recommendations for use with Nitrox.
They usually do not need to be cleaned unless you are using a cylinder for nitrox.
depends on if you're using a NITROX mix or a HELIOX mix.
Depends on the area - in the Florida Keys/anywhere exotic, expect $10-$15 for air and $15-up for Nitrox. In Daytona Beach, which is the cheapest I have seen, it's $5 for air and $7 for Nitrox. Most major cities are around $10 for air and $15 for Nitrox.
There are various mixes of gases which can be used in diving tanks. The most commonly used one for recreational diving is normal air which consists of 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen (and a small amount of carbon dioxide, argon and other gases) Sometimes the proportion of nitrogen - oxygen is change as follows: Air (80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen) Nitrox-28 (72% nitrogen and 28% oxygen) Nitrox-30 (70% nitrogen and 30% oxygen) Nitrox-32 (68% nitrogen and 32% oxygen) Nitrox-34 (66% nitrogen and 34% oxygen) These are just examples but different mixes can be made You can also use mixes of nitrogen, oxygen and helium. this mix is called trimix. Hope that helps

This question makes about as much sense as asking how far you can run after drinking a liter of water.
