AirSep® Corporation — An Organization with a Global Presence

Quality and long-term value are built into every AirSep product for total customer satisfaction. AirSep’s commitment to world leadershipin expertise, capabilities, and products inspires technologically advanced, innovative solutions for every aspect of oxygen supply needs.

Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) Systems

AirSep is the world leader in Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology. AirSep Oxygen Generators and Oxygen Plants use at least
two vessels filled with molecular sieve as adsorbers. As compressed air passes through one of the adsorbers, the molecular sieve
adsorbs the nitrogen. This allows the remaining oxygen to pass through and exit the adsorber as a product gas. Before the adsorberbecomes saturated with nitrogen, the inlet air flow switches to the second adsorber. The first adsorber is now regenerated by desorbing
the nitrogen through depressurization and purging it with oxygen. The complete cycle is then repeated. Under normal operating
conditions, the molecular sieve is completely regenerative and will last indefinitely.
AirSep PSA Medical Oxygen Systems Features:■ Oxygen-compatible components■ Produces oxygen from an independent compressed air source■ PLC process control■ Highest process efficiency and low operating cost
■ Automatic and unattended operation■ Touch-screen control panel with maintenance-free, solid-state purity monitor, 			
including alarm and shutdown capability			■ Automatic and fail-safe backup oxygen supply■ Easy to install and maintain

AirSep PSA Control Systems

AirSep Standard Generator models AS-D+ through AS-P may be equipped with an optional NEMA 4 touchscreen control panel withan integrated oxygen monitor. Standard equipment on models AS-Q to AS-Z, the touchscreen provides a normal start-up system,
monitors/controls the operation of the process valves, monitors signals coming from the pressure transducers, and provides an alarmsystem, as well as a fail-safe shutdown mode. This control panel also features diagnostic capabilities and Ethernet access for remotemonitoring of process parameters. The various color screens are easy to follow, as the user-friendly interface maintains a consistenttemplate design.

Advanced Features and Controls:
Control and Monitoring■ 5.7” multi-color touchscreen operation interface■ Oxygen concentration measured by ultrasonic technology,
which eliminates regular calibration or cell replacement■ Data logging■ Remote monitoring capability■ Multi-level secured access for supervisory control■ Multi-language option■ Alarm and process parameter notifications via email■ Visual recommended service maintenance reminders■ Parameters displayed in metric or imperial units■ Real time trends of process parameters■ General maintenance guidelines

Worldwide Installations — Serving Client Needs GloballyMore than 4,500 hospitals, in nearly 50 countries worldwide, currently rely on AirSep PSA Medical Oxygen Systems to meet theircentral pipeline and other oxygen needs. These generators and plants operate automatically to supply patient, surgical, and criticalcare units in medical facilities, military field hospitals, on-site emergency preparedness centers, and disaster-relief efforts.
AirSep supplies both portable and wall-mounted medical oxygen generators for smaller clinics ranging in capacity from 8 LPM to 15
LPM. For larger hospitals with central piping, AirSep stationary generators with capacities up to 5,500 SCFH (144.6 Nm³/hr or 2,596LPM) at 72.5 psig (500 kPa or 5.0 barg) are available as single train, duplex, or skidded turnkey systems. All HM Series systems aredesigned to deliver oxygen that meets the United States and European Pharmacopoeia Oxygen 93 Percent (93% ±3%) Monographand fully assembled and tested in AirSep facilities. Unskidded, high purity (99% ±0.5%), containerized, and cylinder refilling options areavailable upon customer request.
AirSep Medical Oxygen systems can be fabricated in accordance with all relevant local codes (e.g., ASME, ANSI, NEMA, CSA, CRN,CE/PED, TSG R0004-2009, HTM2022, ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 10083, and USPXXII Medical Oxygen Standards).

Self-Contained Generators

For unique applications, AirSep offers a range of completely selfcontained oxygen generators equipped with air compressors. With
the exception of the Centrox, these generators require no special
installation. Simply connect the oxygen outlet to your oxygen
distribution system and the power cord to a grounded electricaloutlet. Turn the unit on and set your oxygen flow rate.
Centrox

The Centrox and Reliant are ideal for use where relatively small
quantities of oxygen are needed. They supply sufficient oxygen flowfor veterinary medicine and other medical applications. The Centrox
and Reliant are specifically designed for applications that require
higher oxygen pressures up to 50 psig (345 kPa or 3.4 barg).

ReliantNote: The 220 V ~ ±10%, 50 Hz configurations for Centrox 				 and Reliant are available for medical applications 				 for export only outside of the USA.

Standard Generators

AirSep Oxygen Generators eliminate the expense, inconvenience,
hazardous handling, and storage problems often associated withpurchased liquid or high pressure cylinder oxygen. The standard
models AirSep offers are the most efficient and reliable generators
available today. With their proprietary mufflers, these units alsoachieve the lowest sound levels in the industry.
Fully automatic, the generators require no specialized operating
personnel. Simply connect an air compressor or central air supply
to the generator and your application or oxygen distribution
system to the generator’s oxygen receiver. Then connect thepower cord to a grounded electrical outlet, turn the unit on, andset your oxygen delivery pressure. That’s all there is to it. A simple
on-off switch supplies oxygen whenever you need it.

ATF, AS-J, and AS-K
Generators
Note: The 220 V ~ ±10%, 50 Hz configurations for AS-D+ – AS-L		 are available for medical applications for export only outside		 of the USA.

Packaged Systems

Skid-mounted or containerized, turnkey packaged oxygen systems are ideal for
locations where a compressed air supply is limited or unavailable. Containerizedunits used for military applications are built to ISO 1-C construction standards.
All AirSep Standard Oxygen Generators can be packaged using customerspecified or AirSep-recommended components.
The oxygen generator within a containerized unit produces oxygen from an
air compressor that’s included in the package. These rugged systems perform
in extreme temperatures, high humidity conditions, and at high elevations.
Applications include, mobile military/medical clinics, field hospitals, and disaster
response and recovery efforts.

Containerized Packaged Plant

The AS-D+ - PC-10 unit can supply Role 2 Enhanced (R2E) and Role 3
deployed health facilities with a constant 45 LPM supply of oxygen that meets
the United States and European Pharmacopoeia Oxygen 93 Percent (93%±3%) Monograph, for use in emergency rooms, operating theaters, postoperative care units, intensive care units, and patient wards.

Cylinder Refilling Systems

AirSep Oxygen Cylinder Refilling Plants enable customers to filloxygen cylinders for existing needs or to supply others. AirSep
manufacturers a complete line of turnkey oxygen cylinder refilling
plants — with capacities from 8-100s of cylinders per day.
Complete plants include a feed air compressor, refrigerated dryeror chiller, oxygen generator, oxygen compressor, and a cylinder
filling rack. The oxygen compressor delivers oxygen at up to
2,200 psig (15,169 kPa or 151.6 barg) to a high pressure manifold
capable of filling up to 10 cylinders at a time.
These cylinder refilling plants operate automatically andgenerate oxygen that meets the United States and European
Pharmacopoeia Oxygen 93 Percent (93% ±3%) Monograph. For
special applications, an optional high purity module can be added
to the plant, to increase oxygen concentration to 99% ±0.5%.
