Mikropor Oxygen Generators are a Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) system supplying pure oxygen to the airline. Zeolite molecular sieve (ZMS), an effective adsorbent, separates oxygen and other molecules like nitrogen and argon gas in the dry air. Non-oxygen molecules are adsorbed by ZMS under constant pressure, so oxygen is produced.
Working Principle
Mikropor Oxygen Generators are two-bed PSA systems filled with ZMS adsorbers. Including
filters, a pressure regulator, valves and assemblies; the oxygen generation process is mainly the separation of oxygen and nitrogen from the clean and dry air. In a bed, zeolite adsorbs non-oxygen molecules such as nitrogen, argon gas,oil aerosol in the dry air and, at that moment, the regeneration cycle begins in an other bed.
Pure oxygen is stored in the special buffer tank. The system provides to the user uninterruptibleoxygen up to 95% purity.
