Chapter 2 Principle

2.1 Basic principles

The device takes air as the material, adopts pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to generate the
oxygen (concentration 90 % ~ 96 %, oxygen 93 percent for short).

2.2 Oxygen swing absorbers(PSA)

Pressure swing adsorption, atmospheric pressure desorption. The compressed air passed the
air filter respectively enters the separated electromagnetic valve, then the nitrogen, carbon
dioxide, vapour in air is selectively adsorbed by the molecular sieve, and oxygen enrichment
passed the separation unit of nitrogen and oxygen to form product gas. When the molecular
sieve in the separation unit of nitrogen and oxygen adsorbs near the status of saturation, the
compressed air enters the other molecular sieve regenerated to continue adsorbing oxygen.
The saturated tower makes the molecular sieve desorb and regenerate by decompressing to
atmospheric pressure and introducing some oxygen for cleaning the beds of molecular sieve,
to prepare for next adsorption. The separation unit of nitrogen and oxygen consisted in series
or parallel achieves the purpose of getting continuous production of oxygen through the PLC
system controlling.
Sieve is a porous filtering material and is considered a wear item. Some factors that could
affect sieve material life include humidity, temperature, particulates, air contaminates, air
intake, vibration and other environmental conditions. The frequency or intensity of use may
also affect the effective service life.

Check the internal filter material by the plastic shell of the intake filter, it is recommended to
replace it when the black area reaches 80% or more. Press the filter cover by hand, open the
cover after unlocking, then unplug the intake filter to replace it.
It is recommended that the intake filter should be replaced once per 1000 hours at most. Or
the lifetime of the machine could be influenced to a certain degree, even the oxygen
concentration could be reduced when the filter is clogged severely.
The intake filter is a dissipative part which is not applicable for long-term use.
D. Replacement of nasal oxygen tube
The nasal oxygen tube is a sterile and disposable product, do not use it repeatedly or
crosswise, or it will be insanitary and may be harmful to your health. User can purchase the
nasal oxygen tube certificated by self.
To avoid cross-infection, it is recommended that each person uses the oxygen tube solely.
The oxygen tube is disposable, repeated use have a risk of infection.
The nasal oxygen tube is the only parts or accessories of the oxygen concentrator intend for
single use.
Cannula requirements: length of 4-25 ft including all oxygen tubing, with crush-proof and
single lumen tubing. For example, adult standard flow (rated for up to 6L/min continuous
flow) for lengths up to 7 ft.
Note: The nasal oxygen tube may become contaminated with body fluids or expired gases
during both NORMAL CONDITION and SINGLE FAULT CONDITION.
Note: Patients should use disposable nasal oxygen tubes of appropriate specificaations. The
following action is prohibited: Use of a paediatric cannula on an adult patient.

Audio characteristic for alarm:
High-level alarm: pulse burst composed of 10 pulses, interval: 3 s, fundamental frequency:
750 Hz.
Low-level alarm: single pulse, non-repetitive, fundamental frequency: 750 Hz.
Response frequency for buzzer in power interruption: about 0.32 Hz.
Verification of the functionality of the Alarm system:
Operator can verify the functionality of the Alarm system until oxygen concentrator
stabilizes(2 minutes or more after machine starts).
For example, to trigger the alarm for low flowrate, operator can adjust the flowrate of the
oxygen concentrator below 0.5 L/min, and this will cause a high-level alarm with “ELL”
display, as indicated above or in chapter 4.2. Another example, alarm for low oxygen
concentration can be triggered by setting the flowrate to maximum, the yellow indicator light
will illuminates after several seconds(low-level alarm), and it may become a high-level one if
the oxygen concentrate is low enough, that’s depend on the actual situation of the machine.
