OX-12 Oxygen Generator Manual
Oxygen Hook-up
The oxygen outlet connection is 1/8-inch female National Standard Pipe Thread (FPT)
and is located on the front of the Oxygen Generator. The hex-nut bulkhead fitting
should be stabilized with a 7/8-inch wrench to prevent rotation when making your
connection to the unit.
IMPORTANT: Oxygen is a powerful oxidizing agent; it can cause fire or explosion.
Observe strict cleanliness procedures when fabricating and connecting the oxygen
piping. It is imperative that oxygen systems be properly cleaned and inspected to
insure that no combustible materials remain in the connecting pipe and fittings.
If you are not familiar with oxygen cleaning procedures, refer to the Compressed Gas
Association documents G-4.1 "Cleaning Equipment for Oxygen Service" and G-4.4
"Industrial Practices for Gaseous Oxygen Transmission and Distribution Piping
Systems."
IMPORTANT: Do not allow the free flow of oxygen from the Oxygen Generator.
Ensure that the oxygen flow is measured and controlled to rates that do not exceed
rated capacity.
Operation
To start the Oxygen Generator, connect the unit to a grounded power source rated for
the voltage and current requirements stated on the label on the unit. Push the toggle
switch on the front panel to the up position.
Set the outlet oxygen flow to 12-SCFH (5.5-SLPM) or less.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the Oxygen Generator is in a well-ventilated area. If the
space is occupied, sufficient ventilation must be provided to prevent the accumulation
of low oxygen concentration waste gas in the space. Approximately 6 air changes per
hour are necessary.
IMPORTANT: The flow meter installed on the Generator is set to read accurately when
the discharge is to atmospheric pressure. If the actual discharge pressure is
substantially above atmospheric pressure, the reading can be adjusted to determine the
precise flow rate, according to the following formula (using psig):

Please contact Ozone Solutions if additional assistance is required.
Do not allow the oxygen product to vent freely. Do not exceed rated capacity.
