An air compressor is a device powered by a motor taking in ambient air and converting it into pressurized air. Air compressors are indispensable components of the hyperbaric chamber system, as they maintain the internal air pressure that is essential for providing patients with continuous pressurized oxygen treatment. Different hyperbaric chamber manufacturers tend to produce air compressors designed specifically for their products. OxyHealth, for example, sells its chambers with an oil-less air compressor that focuses on a robust filtration system, while Summit-to-Sea’s air compressors feature patented sound suppression and are sold in pairs as part of the company’s redundancy protocol (i.e., if one compressor fails, the other remains active while the chamber safely deflates).
