AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual 11


AirSep Corporation

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.

2.2 POTENTIAL HAZARDS


Oxygen vigorously accelerates the burning of combustible
materials. In an oxygen‑enriched atmosphere, many materials that
do not burn in normal air require only a slight spark or moderate
heat to set them aflame.

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, keep gasoline, kerosene, oil,


grease, cotton fibers, wood, paint, and other combustible material
away from all parts of the oxygen generator.

Do not allow smoking, open flame, or usage of electronic devices


that may generate sparks (e.g., cellular telephones) near the
oxygen generator.

Post “NO SMOKING” or “OPEN FLAMES” signs conspicuously


near the location of the oxygen generator.

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.

To prevent fire or electrical shock, locate the oxygen generator


indoors, away from rain or any other type of moisture.

Before attempting to install, operate, or repair the oxygen


generator, read and thoroughly understand this instruction manual
and the component manuals located in the Appendix C of this
instruction manual. Improper installation, operation, or repairs can
result in severe bodily injury, damage to the oxygen generator, or
poor performance.

AirSep Corporation

3.0 System Description


3.1 GENERAL
Air Contains 21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen, 0.9% argon, and 0.1% other gases.
AirSep PSA Oxygen units separate oxygen from compressed air through a unique
Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) process. The compressed air flows through
a filter assembly before the air enters the adsorber vessels. A particulate filter
removes condensed water, oil, dirt, scale, etc. from the feed air and then a separate
coalescing filter (mounted on most of the models) removes additional oil and water
vapor.

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.

AirSep Corporation

Manual Air Inlet Valve (V-1)

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.

Feed Air Regulator

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.

Filter Drain Valve

This automatic valve removes moisture from the filters through tubing connected to
an outlet of the filters.

Manual Filter Outlet Valve (V-2)

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).

Automatic Feed Air Valves

The automatic feed air valves control the flow of the feed air as the air enters the
adsorbers.

Automatic Waste Valves

The automatic waste valves control the flow of waste gas as it exits the adsorbers.

Pneumatic Equalization Valve

The pneumatic equalization valve enables the pressure in the adsorbers to equalize
after the product oxygen exits from one of the adsorbers.

20 AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual



AirSep Corporation

Manual Product Valve (V-3)

The manual product valve controls the flow of product oxygen from the absorbers.

Check Valves – not available on AS-D+ models

The check valves ensure that product gas does not flow back into the adsorbers.

Relief Valves (not shown)

The relief valves, one on each adsorber, ensure that the pressure in the adsorbers
does not exceed the rated maximum pressure of the adsorbers.

Flow Controller (not shown) – available on AS-D+ models only

The flow controller ensures consistent flow of the delivered product oxygen.

4.5 CONTROL PANEL: EXTERNAL COMPONENTS

Schneider Electric Touch Screen

The touch screen on the oxygen generator control panel uses a series of screen
pages to perform the following functions:

■ Provides a normal start-up system

■ Monitors and controls the operation of the process valves

■ Monitors signals coming from pressure transducers

■ Provides an alarm system to indicate malfunctions in the PSA


Oxygen Generating System

■ Provides a fail-safe shutdown in the event of loss in product


concentration

The main Human/Machine Interface (HMI) consists of the Schneider Electric


Magelis Touch screen. The Magelis has a 5.7” screen, which is touch-sensitive.

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.

AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual 21


AirSep Corporation

Figure 4.3: Typical Main System Control Screen

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 “Information Display” changes depending on the screen currently displayed.


However, they all share three basic components: Monitoring Devices, Message
Displays, and Interface Mechanisms. Monitoring Devices are components that are
used to relay real-time information about the system, like pressure graphs. Message
Displays are used to relay information pertaining to the system in a text format.
These displays are also used to present help pages that can be used to better
understand the unit. Interface Mechanisms are screen items that can be used to
interface directly with the system. These are in the form of buttons, switches, or
icons.

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.

Every time an alarm or shutdown condition is displayed on the ‘Local Message


Display’ (Refer to Figure 4.3), rectify the cause and press the ‘Alarm Reset’ icon to
bring the system into normal mode before starting.

22 AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual



AirSep Corporation

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

1. Runtime Power Loss

2. Emergency Stop

3. Stopped

4. Shutdown: High Bed Pressure

5. Shutdown: Low Instrument Air

6. Shutdown: Low Oxygen

7. Standby

8. Stop Sequence Activated

9. Alarm: High Bed Pressure

10. Alarm: Low Oxygen Concentration

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: HMI Navigation Layout

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 ‘Calibrate Pressure Transducers’ icon displays a screen dedicated to the


pressure transducers calibration and settings as shown below.

Figure 4.8: Typical Bed Pressure Calibration Screen

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.

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.

Programmable Logic Controller

The programmable logic controller contains the logic for the oxygen generator
operation.

Oxygen Concentration Monitoring Board

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.

Human Machine Interface (HMI)

The HMI acts as an interface between the operator and the oxygen generator.

5.2 PRE-INSTALLATION GUIDELINES


Before you install the oxygen generator and the oxygen receiver, if supplied, refer
to the Specifications section in the Appendix of this instruction manual to determine
the applicable floor space, feed air, and the power requirements for your particular
model.

The oxygen generator may use feed air at specifications outside


those shown in the Appendix of this instruction manual; however,
use of such feed air may require modification of the oxygen
generator at the AirSep Corporation factory to ensure the product
oxygen meets the specifications. Consult your sales representative
to determine whether your oxygen generator requires modifications
for your application.

Locate the oxygen generator in an area where the ambient air


temperature remains between 4°C (40°F) and 44°C (112°F) to
prevent damage not covered under the AirSep Corporation Product
Warranty.

To prevent fire or electrical shock, locate the oxygen generator away


from rain or any other type of moisture.

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.

AirSep oxygen generators/systems are not intended to be used for


or with any life-supporting applications

Do not disconnect protective earth:

Airsep oxygen generators are intended to be secured to the floor.


Failure to do so can result in the unit tipping over. An example of
securing to the floor would be bolting the unit down.

instruction manual before you operate the oxygen generator.

AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual 37


AirSep Corporation

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:

1. Connect the grounded power cord to a grounded electrical outlet. Make


sure the power circuit cannot be turned off accidentally.

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.

2. Fully close the manual feed #2 valve (V-2).

3. Provide feed air to the oxygen generator that meets the specification
for your model.

4. If the oxygen concentration monitoring board is provided, ensure that


all the manual valves on the oxygen sample line are open and the
pressure regulator at the inlet of the concentration monitoring board
(refer to Figure 4.1) is set at 1 psig. If the oxygen receiver does not
have enough pressure to set the pressure regulator, this step can be
performed after step 11. The oxygen sample is typically taken from the
oxygen receiver.

5. Press the ‘ALARM RESET’ icon on the Oxygen Generator Control


Screen (if visible). The generator will only start if there no shutdown
condition exists. However, during start-up, a low concentration alarm
may exist. If a shutdown condition exists, pressing the ‘ALARM
RESET’ will not reset the system. The ‘ALARM RESET’ icon
disappears once all the alarm and shutdown conditions have been
rectified.

38 AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual



AirSep Corporation

During initial start-up or start-up after a long period, the oxygen


concentration can be lower than the low concentration alarm and/
or shutdown setpoint and a ‘low concentration’ alarm may exist.
However, the oxygen generator ignores the oxygen concentration
shutdown setpoint for the first 60 minutes after start-up. If the
oxygen concentration after 60 minutes of operation is still below the
low concentration shutdown setpoint, the oxygen generator shuts
down.

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.

6. Set the AUTO/MAN icon on the ‘Oxygen Generator Screen’ to manual


mode.

7. Press the ‘START’ icon on the ‘Main System Control Screen’.

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.

While venting oxygen, do not allow smoking or open flame. Do


not allow venting oxygen to come in contact with clothing or
hydrocarbon-based materials.

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.

AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual 39


AirSep Corporation

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.

2. Make sure the AUTO/MANUAL icon on the HMI is set to AUTO.

3. Allow the oxygen receiver to repressurize fully. When the oxygen


receiver repressurizes, after a time delay of five cycles (approx. 15
min.), the oxygen generator stops cycling and enters the standby
mode.

Allow the oxygen generator to enter standby during shutdown


to ensure that the oxygen receiver contains oxygen at design
concentration during the subsequent restart and also ensure that
the unit shuts down at the proper point in the cycle. Failure to wait
until the oxygen generator enters standby results in temporarily
reduced concentration oxygen during the subsequent restart.

40 AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual



AirSep Corporation

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.

5.7 EXTENDED SHUTDOWN


To shutdown the oxygen generator for 24 hours or longer, complete all the steps in
Section 5.6 — Shutdown. In addition, perform the following steps:

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.

2. Disconnect the power supply.

5.8 START-UP AFTER AN EXTENDED SHUTDOWN


After an extended shutdown or an unexpected shutdown, such as a loss of electrical
power, you must purge the oxygen receiver of any low concentration oxygen before
the oxygen generator can supply oxygen within concentration specifications. To
purge the oxygen receiver, follow all the steps in Section 5.4 — Initial 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.

AS-D+—AS-P Series Instruction Manual 41

6.4 CHANGING FILTER ELEMENTS


The time period to change the filter element depends upon the feed air conditions.
If the feed air is highly contaminated with dust, oil, etc., the filter element must be
changed more frequently than the specified time interval in the manual.

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.

5. Gently unscrew the old filter element and discard it.

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.

7. If you are replacing a coalescing filter element, make sure a black


gasket is attached to the top of the new element.

option, to the repair, replacement or refunding the purchase price of any such unit of
equipment (or part thereof) found by AirSep to be defective in parts or workmanship;
provided, however, that AirSep shall have no obligation hereunder with respect to a
defective part unless it receives written notice of such defect prior to the expiration
of the applicable warranty period as referenced above.

Each unit of equipment for which a warranty claim is asserted shall, at the request
of AirSep, be returned on a prepaid basis with proof of purchase date to the AirSep
factory specified by AirSep at the expense of the original purchaser. Replacement
parts shall be warranted as stated above for the unexpired portion of the original
warranty. This warranty does not extend to any unit or part subjected to misuse

which has been repaired or altered outside of the AirSep factory without the express
prior written authorization of AirSep.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the applicable


warranty period, as specified above, AirSep will pay the cost of return freight charges
to the original purchaser, provided an authorized AirSep representative approved
return of the unit or parts, for any equipment found by AirSep to be defective. For
warranty repairs performed during the first 90 days from the date of invoice, AirSep
will pay freight both ways. After the applicable parts warranty period has expired,
the original purchaser is responsible for freight both ways.

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)

Preventive Maintenance
S Keep medium flowing through the valve as free from dirt and
foreign material as possible.
S Periodic exercise of the valve should be considered if ambient or
fluid conditions are such that corrosion, elastomer degradation,
fluid contamination build up, or other conditions that could
impede solenoid valve shifting are possible. The actual frequency
of exercise necessary will depend on specific operating conditions.
A successful operating history is the best indication of a proper
interval between exercise cycles. Normally Open Pilot (entry under disc)

D.1 OXYGEN GENERATOR DECOMMISSIONING AND DISPOSAL
GUIDELINE

Introduction:

Oxygen generator must be assessed for its redundancy and thereby managed
according to the owner’s existing policies for proper decommissioning and disposal.
In situations where policies are not well defined, this guideline may be used to
decommission and dispose the oxygen generator.

This guideline describes typical process to ensure effective decommissioning and


disposal of the oxygen generator.

Definitions:

Decommission - Process of removing oxygen generator from service.

Reuse – Using the oxygen generator at a different location after decommissioning


it from its current location.

Scrapping – Disposing the oxygen generator following all local governing ordinances
and recycling plans.

Procedure:

1. Identify the status of the redundant oxygen generator, i.e.

■ Fully Functional

■ Partially Functional/Repairable

■ Damaged/Non-repairable

2. Decommission
Decommissioning of the oxygen generator shall be performed in
accordance to the owner’s quality assurance procedures. A typical
decommissioning includes the following:

■ Updating the equipment database

■ Removal of maintenance contracts and/or service schedules

■ If the oxygen generator is fully functional or can be repaired for


reuse, an assessment should be done for the current value. An
assessment report on type and cost of repairs (if required) should
also be prepared. Also, probable future owners should be identified
and advised of the availability of the device
