I'm looking for anyone that has experience or an opinion on this storage system.
I haven't seen it in person, but we have a Facility that wants to put this enclosure on their Helipad to fill a vessel incorporated in the helicopter to provide O2 to patients. The equipment inside the helicopter aside, I'm having a hard time finding relevant code sections for the storage and use in this instance. The system pictured is exactly the unit they are currently using at the airport. They are wanting to duplicate this here. The airport has not provided any info on compliance.
I'm assuming concrete is required in the area where they are using the oxygen container. But I can't find a code directly related to this process.
Here is where I have landed:

Transfilling - I'm assuming this is a good description of the process.
