1.0 Introduction
1.1 GENERAL
This instruction manual provides a description of the AirSep Corporation PSA Oxygen
Generator Models AS-D+, AS-E, AS-G, AS-J, AS-K, AS-L, AS-N and AS-P, as well
as instructions for their installation, operation, and maintenance. The Appendix of
this instruction manual also includes pertinent drawings and component literature.
To ensure safe operation and proper maintenance of the oxygen generator, AirSep
Corporation recommends keeping this instruction manual readily available for
reference.
2.0 Safety
2.1 GENERAL
Oxygen, the most abundant of the elements, makes up approximately 50 percent
of the earth’s crust. In its free state, oxygen forms approximately one‑fifth of air by
volume. Although classified as a non‑flammable gas, oxygen supports combustion.
As an active element, it combines directly or indirectly with all the elements except
the rare gases. Oxygen is an invisible gas that is colorless, odorless, and tasteless.
To ensure your safety, thoroughly read and familiarize yourself with the entire section
of this instruction manual. In addition, AirSep Corporation strongly recommends
that you review this section periodically.
Take extreme care to keep all oxygen piping and vessels clean. To
avoid fire or explosion, oxygen clean all surfaces that can come in
contact with the product oxygen. Check all oxygen fittings for leaks
with an oxygen‑compatible, leak-detecting solution.
The oxygen generator uses, in its adsorber vessels, an inert ceramic material called
molecular sieve to separate compressed air into oxygen and the other gases. The
unique properties of molecular sieve allow it to attract, or adsorb, nitrogen physically
from air under pressure. This allows oxygen to exit the adsorbers as a product gas.
The process valves on the oxygen generator then direct the oxygen to the oxygen
receiver for storage until needed by your application.
While one adsorber produces oxygen, the other depressurizes to exhaust the
waste gases it adsorbed (collected) during the oxygen production cycle. The entire
oxygen generating process is completely regenerative, which makes it both reliable
and virtually maintenance-free. The molecular sieve does not normally require
replacement.
This instruction manual serves as the guidelines for the standard AS-D+ through
AS-P models. Refer to the illustrations, located in the Appendix A, for the detailed
flow diagram, electrical schematic, and the general arrangement drawings of the
oxygen generator models referenced in this instruction manual.

4.2 ADSORBERS
The adsorbers, or beds, are vessels that contain the molecular sieve used to adsorb
(attract) nitrogen from compressed air and allow oxygen to pass through as the
product gas.
4.3 CONNECTIONS
The oxygen generator provides the connections described below.
Air Inlet
The feed air inlet provides a connection for the feed air hose from the air compressor.
Oxygen Outlet
The oxygen outlet provides a connection for the oxygen hose to the oxygen receiver.
The condensate drain outlet provides a connection for a hose to drain condensate
from the oxygen generator filters (not applied for all the models).

Coalescing Filter
This manual valve controls the flow of feed air from the air compressor to the filter
assembly. It is named manual feed # 1 valve (V-1).
Particulate Filter
The particulate filter, or prefilter, removes particulates from the feed air before the
air enters the coalescing filter and then the adsorbers.
Coalescing Filter
The coalescing filter removes condensed water, oil vapor, and other contaminants
from the feed air before the air enters the adsorbers.
The feed air regulator is set at the AirSep Corporation factory. It controls the maximum
oxygen generator cycle pressure. The setting of the regulator is customized as per
the demand of oxygen for your application. Please ensure that the feed air regulator
setting is not changed before consulting AirSep Corporation.
Setting the feed air regulator to a value such that the maximum
oxygen generator cycle/bed pressure is 80 psig or more can cause
severe damage to the molecular sieve in the adsorbers which will
not be covered under AirSep’s warranty.
This automatic valve removes moisture from the filters through tubing connected to
an outlet of the filters.
This manual valve controls the flow of feed air from the feed air regulator after the
filters to the automatic feed air valves. It is named manual feed # 2 valve (V-2).
The automatic feed air valves control the flow of the feed air as the air enters the
adsorbers.
The automatic waste valves control the flow of waste gas as it exits the adsorbers.
The pneumatic equalization valve enables the pressure in the adsorbers to equalize
after the product oxygen exits from one of the adsorbers.
The manual product valve controls the flow of product oxygen from the absorbers.
The check valves ensure that product gas does not flow back into the adsorbers.
The relief valves, one on each adsorber, ensure that the pressure in the adsorbers
does not exceed the rated maximum pressure of the adsorbers.
The flow controller ensures consistent flow of the delivered product oxygen.
The touch screen on the oxygen generator control panel uses a series of screen
pages to perform the following functions:
In order to make the software simple to use, the various screens follow a consistent
template design. Each screen consists of two components: the title bar and the
information display.
The title bar serves two purposes. It identifies the screen that is currently being
displayed. It also acts as the main navigational tool.
No matter which screen is being currently displayed, touching the AirSep logo will
display the Main System Control screen.
The Main System Control Screen is the primary source for information on the whole
unit. In the top left corner of the information display are the buttons that will start and
stop the oxygen generator.
The ‘Local Message Display’ icon displays the different status of the generator
namely Stopped, Running, Standby, and Alarm. This display will also show the
recent alarms if you push and hold.
This window will populate with the most recent, highest priority message of the
system. The priorities are listed here, from highest to lowest:
Priority List
2. Emergency Stop
3. Stopped
7. Standby
11. Running
The icons ‘Oxygen Generator’ and ‘Output Parameters’ take the user to dedicated
screens described later in this section. Lastly, by touching ‘Screen Cleaning’ icon
at the bottom right corner of the information display, a blank screen for cleaning
purposes is displayed and the ‘Maintenance’ icon will display a screen that provides
guidelines for the general maintenance of the unit. The ‘Silence Horn’ icon bypasses
the horn for 10 minutes during an alarm or shutdown condition.
Figure 4.4 below shows the layout of all the screens in HMI for easy navigation.
Oxygen Generator
Receiver Calibration
The ‘Oxygen Generator’ Screen (Figure 4.5) is the primary source of information
pertaining to the actual oxygen generation process. The adsorber vessels (also
called beds – Bed A is the bed on your left while facing the control panel and Bed B
is on your right while facing the control panel) are shown in the center of the screen
and the oxygen receiver vessel is shown on the right hand side of the screen.
The receiver has a numeric pressure display. Additionally, the diagram shown will
animate to indicate which valves are currently being actuated. The ‘AUTO/MAN’
icon selects the operating mode for the oxygen generator. In the AUTO position, the
oxygen generator cycles on and off to meet oxygen demand.
When the pressure in the product output manifold increases to approximately the
maximum pressure specified in the Appendix A, the oxygen generator stops oxygen
production after a timed delay and enters standby mode. To prevent short cycling
and maintain concentration, the oxygen generator continues to operate for five
additional cycles after increased pressure in the product output manifold. This five-
cycle delay to shutdown functions only in the AUTO mode.
When the pressure in the product output manifold decreases to approximately the
minimum pressure specified in the Appendix A, the oxygen production begins.
In the MANUAL position, the oxygen generator cycles continuously. The symbol ‘A’
at the right side of the ‘AUTO/MAN’ switch appears only when the oxygen generator
is in AUTO mode.
The ‘MANUAL DRAIN’ icon activates the drain valve when pressed.
The ‘Parameters and Output’ Screen (Figure 4.6) is the main location to observe the
several parameters of the oxygen generator. The bed pressures, oxygen receiver
pressure, oxygen concentration, and the number of working hours are all displayed
here via Message Displays.
The ‘Bed Pressure Graphs’ icon takes to the Bed Pressure Graphs Screen as
shown.
The ‘Output Parameter Graphs’ icon takes to the screen that displays the graphs
between oxygen pressure vs. time and the oxygen concentration vs. time. The
‘Next Pen’ icon changes the scale of the ordinate to suit the respective displayed
pressure.
The pressure transducers for the beds and the product oxygen pressure are factory
calibrated and should not require any calibration for a long period. However, if the
need arises, follow the procedure below for calibration.
1. The three-way valve (V-A) (Figure 4.9) handle shows the direction of
flow path. In Figure 4.9, direction of flow path is from oxygen generator
to pressure transducer. Close this manual three-way valve (V-A), so
that the flow path is from the atmosphere to the pressure transducer.
2. Take out the plug, if any, from port A (Figure 4.9) and attach a manual
air pump having an accurate pressure gauge.
3. Press the ‘Calibrate 0 psig’ icon when the gauge on the manual air
pump reads 0 psig.
4. Manually pump the air so that the pressure reading on the gauge is
100 psig.
5. At this point, press the ‘Calibrate 100 psig’ icon on the calibration
screen to finish the calibration procedure.
6. Press and hold the “SET” button until it pops back out. This will save
the calibration.
7. Release pressure and check a few points in the range and ensure the
reading is close. If it is off return to step 3.

8. Disconnect the manual air pump from port A and put the plug, if any,
back to port A.
9. Open the manual three-way valve (V-A), so that the flow path is from
the oxygen generator to the pressure transducer as shown in Figure
4.9.
Press the ‘NEXT’ icon to navigate the calibration screen for Bed B and the oxygen
receiver pressure transducer.
4.6 CONTROL PANEL: INTERNAL COMPONENTS
The internal layout of the control panel mainly consists of the programmable logic
controller (PLC), oxygen concentration board (optional), HMI, circuit breakers,
transformers, and an alarm horn.
The programmable logic controller contains the logic for the oxygen generator
operation.
This board monitors the concentration of the product oxygen. A sample of product
oxygen flows from the oxygen receiver to this board through a regulator. Ensure
that the regulator is set for ~1 psig for accurate readings. Refer to Figure 4.1 for the
location of the regulator.
The HMI acts as an interface between the operator and the oxygen generator.
A starter kit is available for each oxygen generator. The table below contains a list

3. Unpack the unit and remove any protective wrapping and packaging.
Retain the carton and packaging to facilitate the future shipping and
transporting of the unit.
5. Open the control panel and inspect the interior for loose or damaged
parts.
6. Inspect all the wiring to ensure that no wires are broken and no push-
on connector is off its terminal. If a wire is disconnected, reconnect the
wire according to the electrical schematic.
7. After inspecting the interior, close the control panel on the unit.
8. Locate the instruction manual inside the accessory box. Read the
entire manual before installing and operating the unit.
Make sure the area that surrounds the oxygen generator is well
ventilated, and provide sufficient space around the unit (at least one
meter (three feet)) to allow for cool air flow as well as to allow safe
operation and maintenance.
2. Connect the red air hose provided with the oxygen generator
accessories, if ordered, from the on-site air supply to the feed air inlet
connection on the oxygen generator. Refer to Table 5.1 to determine
the proper size for the feed air inlet connection and feed air hose for
your model.

a. Connect the relief valve assembly to the oxygen inlet port on the
oxygen receiver. Tighten the connection fully.
b. Connect the regulator kit at the oxygen outlet port on the oxygen
receiver. Refer to Figure A.2 for the location of regulator kit installation.
Tighten the connection fully.
If AirSep Corporation did not provide your oxygen receiver, make sure your oxygen
receiver is sized properly to meet the requirements of your oxygen generator
model. In addition, AirSep Corporation recommends that the oxygen inlet on the
oxygen receiver contain a relief valve and that the oxygen outlet on the oxygen
receiver contain a pressure regulator and pressure gauge or a manual ball valve
and pressure gauge.
3. Connect the oxygen clean hose provided with the oxygen generator
accessories from the oxygen outlet connection on the oxygen
generator to the relief valve assembly at the oxygen inlet port on the
oxygen receiver. Refer to the following table to determine the proper
size for the oxygen outlet connection. If AirSep Corporation did not
provide the hose then ensure that the hose used is properly sized and
is compatible for use with oxygen.

The oxygen generator is now ready for operation. Refer to Chapter 6 of this
instruction manual before you operate the oxygen generator.
Operation
When you complete installation as described in the previous section, the oxygen
generator is ready for easy start-up and operation. This section of this instruction
manual provides the procedures for start-up and shutdown of the oxygen generator.
Before you start the oxygen generator, read and thoroughly understand any
literature or instruction manuals for the air compressor that will provide the feed air
to the oxygen generator.
5.4 INITIAL START-UP
To start the oxygen generator for the first time or after an extended or unexpected
shutdown, follow the steps below:
If the power is turned off unexpectedly, the unit will stop cycling. If
your application is using oxygen when the power is off, the oxygen
receiver will depressurize.
3. Provide feed air to the oxygen generator that meets the specification
for your model.
The low concentration shut-off valve (if installed on the oxygen receiver) will only
open when the oxygen concentration is above the shutdown set point to allow
the product oxygen to flow to your application. This valve assembly comes as an
optional feature with the oxygen generator.
8. Slowly open the manual feed #2 valve (V-2) until it is open completely.
9. Close the manual product valve (V-3) (refer to Figure 4.2 for location of
valve). The manual product valve on these units has been configured
to enable a predetermined amount of flow through the valve when
closed. This allows the product pressure to build up even when the
valve is closed.
10. Press the manual drain button and make sure the exhaust from the
filter drain does not contain water or oil. If the exhaust contains water
or oil, press and hold the manual drain button on the control panel until
the exhaust no longer contains liquid.
11. Allow the oxygen generator to operate until the oxygen receiver
pressure on the ‘Output Parameters’ screen (Figure 4.6) registers
approximately 276-310 kPa (40-45 psig) and then fully open the
manual product valve (V-3).
12. To purge oxygen at less than design concentration from the oxygen
receiver, open the manual vent valve on the oxygen receiver to vent
gas while the oxygen generator is running in manual mode. Manual
valve should be open slightly so that pressure will still build up in the
oxygen receiver tank.
13. Allow the oxygen generator to operate until the designed concentration
level is reached. Fully close the manual vent valve if the low
concentration oxygen gas no longer discharges from the receiver.
14. Set the AUTO/MANUAL icon on the ‘Oxygen Generator’ screen to auto
mode.
15. Observe the oxygen receiver pressure on the ‘Output and Parameters’
screen (Figure 4.6). When the pressure in the oxygen receiver
increases to approximately the auto-standby upper setpoint pressure,
the oxygen generator runs for five more cycles (approx. 15 min.) and
then enters standby. When delivery of product oxygen reduces the
pressure in the oxygen receiver below auto standby lower setpoint
pressure, the oxygen generator begins to cycle.
16. After the oxygen receiver pressurizes and the oxygen generator
enters the standby mode, the generator is ready to deliver oxygen to
your application. When using the product oxygen, adjust the pressure
regulator at the outlet of the oxygen receiver until the pressure of the
product oxygen meets the needs of your application.
5.5 OPERATION
The oxygen generator can be operated in AUTO or MANUAL mode depending
on the requirements of your application. To use product oxygen that meets the
specifications for your model listed in the Appendix A of this instruction manual, set
the AUTO/MANUAL icon on the ‘Oxygen Generator Screen’ to AUTO to produce
oxygen only during times of the oxygen demand.
5.6 SHUTDOWN
1. Stop the flow of product oxygen from the oxygen receiver to your
application by fully closing all manual valves between the outlet of the
oxygen receiver and the inlet to your application.
4. Press the STOP icon on the ‘Main System Control Screen’ or switch
off the remote on/off switch depending on the mode of the oxygen
generator to stop it.
5. Close the manual valve for the oxygen sample to the oxygen
concentration monitoring board.
1. Fully close all manual valves on the oxygen receiver to isolate the
oxygen in the oxygen receiver, to prevent the loss of pressure in the
oxygen receiver and enable a normal start-up.
Using the oxygen generator at flows higher than 15% above those
specified in Appendix A of this manual, will result in the likely
contamination of the molecular sieve beds. This damage is not
covered under the standard warranty.
6.0 Maintenance
The most important maintenance you can perform on the oxygen generator is to
make sure the automatic drain valve for the filters functions properly. Routinely
monitor the operation of this drain valve to ensure the long life of the oxygen
generator. Follow the procedures described in this section of the instruction manual
for daily, semi-annual, and annual maintenance. It should be noted that a few
procedural steps in the sub-sections may apply to a specific model.
2. Press the MANUAL DRAIN button on the control panel and observe
the discharge. The discharge should flow freely and be clear of oil and
water within five seconds.
4. Re-install the filter bowls, making sure the bowls lock firmly into place.
5. Slowly open fully the manual inlet valve to pressurize the filter bowls.
6. While observing the drain tubing, press the ‘START’ icon on the ‘Main
System Control Screen’ and determine whether the automatic drain
valve discharges moisture.
7. Fully close the manual inlet valve and depressurize the unit as
described below. (See Section 6.3, Depressurizing the Filters.)
If the filter bowls still contain water, refer to the troubleshooting chapter
of this instruction manual. If the bowls do not contain water, re-install the
bowls and re-pressurize the system. (See Section 6.4, Changing Filter
Elements.)
1. Allow the oxygen generator to stop cycling in AUTO mode when the
oxygen receiver pressurizes fully.
4. Fully close the manual inlet valve (V-1) and manual filter outlet valve
(V-2).
5. Shut off the feed air supply at the air compressor or air header.
7. Press the MANUAL DRAIN button on the HMI until the air no longer
exits from the drain tubing.
If the pressure gauge does not decrease to zero, shut down the unit
and call the AirSep Corporation Commercial Products Division.
The following procedure describes how to change the filter elements for either the
particulate filter semi-annually or the coalescing filter annually.
1. Shut down the oxygen generator and depressurize the filters. (See
Section 6.3, Depressurizing the Filters.)
Do not attempt to remove the filter bowls until the filter assembly
fully depressurizes as described in Section 6.3.
2. To remove the bowl from either filter, push down the bowl latch and
rotate the bowl slightly right or left while pulling down on the bowl. If the
filter has screws, loosen them up.
3. When the bowl is free, disconnect the drain tubing from the bottom of
the bowl. There may be a retainer nut which has to be disconnected to
remove the filter element for the filter models with screws.
4. Wash the bowl in warm, soapy water, and then rinse the bowl.
6. If you are replacing a coalescing filter element, remove and discard the
black gasket where the top of the filter element connects to the filter
housing.
8. Taking care not to touch the filter portion of the new filter element,
screw it into the position from which the old filter was removed.
10. Re-install the filter bowl, making sure the bowl locks firmly into place.
11. Slowly open fully the manual inlet valve and manual filter outlet valve.
12. Turn on the feed air at the air compressor or air header.
1. Shut down the oxygen generator and disconnect the power supply.
(See Section 5.6 – Shutdown.)
2. Fully close the manual feed # 2 valve (V-2) and the manual product
valve (V- 3).
6. Allow the unit to operate until gas no longer exhausts from the muffler
and ‘Parameters and Output Screen’ indicate approx. zero pressure.
Setting the feed air regulator to a value such that the maximum
oxygen generator bed pressure is 80 psig or more can cause severe
damage to the molecular sieve in the adsorbers which will not be
covered under AirSep’s warranty.
If the feed air regulator requires adjustment, perform the following procedure:
The numbers on the dial of the feed air regulator do not always
directly correspond to the actual cycle/bed pressure in the system.
Check on the ‘Parameters and Output Screen’ for the max. bed
pressures.
Make slight adjustments and allow the unit to run through at least
one cycle before making another adjustment. If pressure readings
remain incorrect after the cycle completes, continue making slight
adjustments and cycling the unit until the pressure is within the
specifications.

4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 General
Figure 1
Although Metso’s Jamesbury valves are designed to work
under severe conditions, proper preventative maintenance
can significantly help to prevent unplanned downtime and
in real terms reduce the total cost of ownership. Metso
recommends inspecting valves at least every five (5) years.
The inspection and maintenance frequency depends on the
actual application and process condition. Routine mainte-
nance consists of tightening the lower stem nut (16) 1/4
turn periodically to compensate for wear caused by the
stem turning against the seal. Loosen the upper stem nut Figure 2A Figure 2B
(16) on top of the handle (17) before tightening the lower
stem nut. Retighten the upper stem nut after tightening the
lower stem nut. (See Figure 4)
