Safety Guidelines Unpacking DDITIONAL PACKAGING MATERIAL INSIDE THE UNIT MUST BE REMOVED AND THE AIR INLET FILTER MUST BE INSTALLED PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OXYGEN GENERATOR Ensure that the unit is NOT connected to an electrical outlet. Remove the six (6) screws with nylon washers located on the front and both sides of the unit. ...
Operating OGSI Oxygen Generators are self-contained systems for the production of high purity oxygen. Although oxygen itself is not combustible, it can be very dangerous. It greatly accelerates the burning of combustible materials. Precautions should be taken to avoid a fire in the area of the oxygen generator.
Built on a powder coated steel chassis, its anodized aluminum sieve beds are fitted with custom aluminum end caps for years of reliable service. Portable The OG-15 weighs 65 lb (29 kg) without cover and the OG-20 weighs 67 lb (30 kg) without cover. These units are industrial strength oxygen generators.
Page 12
Applications The OG-15 and OG-20 can be used in various applications. A few examples are given below. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Fish Farming and Aquaculture Ornamental Glass Manufacturing Jewelry Manufacturing Bottled Water Manufacturing Waste and Water Treatment Effective 07/2014...
Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) Technology An OGSI Oxygen Generator is an on-site oxygen generating machine capable of producing oxygen on demand in accordance with your requirements. In effect, it separates the oxygen (21%) from the air it is provided and returns the nitrogen (78%) to the atmosphere through a waste gas muffler.

This gauge indicates the pressure at which the oxygen is being delivered. The flow meter is calibrated at 12 psi (0.83 bar) for OG-15 and 20 psi (1.4 Oxygen Pressure Gauge bar) for OG-20 and the pressure must be adjusted to this level when reading the flow meter.

The exhaust muffler is used to silence the exhaust noise that occurs as a result of the sieve beds rapidly depressurizing to atmospheric pressure, releasing nitrogen. For Exhaust Muffler installations where a lower noise level is required, OGSI offers an optional alternative muffler system that can decrease the emitted noise even further. Air Regulator The air regulator controls the air pressure going into valve block.

Drawings. As you can see, once the incoming air is filtered and compressed in the OG-15/OG-20 unit or regulated to the proper pressure in the OG-15E/OG-20E (Compressor-less) unit, it is directed into one of the two sieve beds. As the air enters the bed, the nitrogen is adsorbed by the sieve and the oxygen passes through as product gas to the storage tank.

Safety Precautions It is very important that you read the precautions below and make yourself aware of the hazards of oxygen in general. While it can be handled and used very safely, it can also be mishandled or applied incorrectly causing dangerous situations. Oxygen is a fire hazard.
2) Space Available for the OG-15/OG-20: If the OG-15/OG-20 unit is going to be set up in a room that is small, (less than 1000 ft or 28.3 m ), that room should be well ventilated (at least 5 air changes in the room per hour).
This equates to approximately 700 W of power. It is required that a 10 A circuit be dedicated to each OG-15/OG-20 unit. Additionally, the unit must be connected to this circuit using only the supplied power cord, and without the use of additional extension cords.
10 LPM flow for OG-15 and OG-20 respectively. The oxygen pressure gauge should read 12 psi (0.83 bar) or 20 psi (1.4 bar) for OG-15 and OG-20 respectively. If it does not, turn the oxygen regulator either clockwise to increase the pressure or counter-clockwise to decrease it until it reaches 12 psi (0.83 bar) or 20 psi (1.4 bar) for OG-15 and OG-20 respectively.
After connecting it to an electrical outlet and pushing the switch on the machine to the ON position, wait for 2 minutes for the unit to come up to maximum purity. The oxygen delivery pressure should be set to 12 psi (0.83 bar) for OG-15 and 20 psi (1.4 bar) for OG-20.

Process Flow Chart The flow chart below describes oxygen cleaning and parts handling process. Rinse Purge and dry Parts Received and Initial Inspection Upon determining which parts need to be cleaned, the technician needs to perform an initial visual inspection (under white light). Check for the presence of visible residue on the parts including but not limited to oil, grease, dirt, dust, rust, weld slag or pre-existing thread sealant among others.
Page 53
Inspection Upon completion of the final rinse cycle, all parts should be removed from the parts washing machine and visually inspected with both a bright white light and an ultraviolet (“black”) light for any residual contamination. The item shall be observed to confirm the absence of any contaminants including any oil, grease, detergent, moisture, lint, or other foreign materials.
