Joan-

I'm not saying anything about regulators for O2 service, but I have
personnaly (accidentally in grad school) melted titanium when pure
oxygen at only about 3000 psig came in contact with residual
hydrocarbons-so yes, oxygen can ignite at pressures below 10,000 psig,
if the conditions are right- not likely but I know it occurs because
I've seen it.
