Onsite Oxygen Generation: What You’ll Need to Get Started

Onsite Oxygen Generation - getting starting blog cover

With a broad range of applications across various industries in Western Australia, onsite oxygen generators are becoming increasingly popular for businesses seeking a dependable and continuous oxygen supply. Onsite oxygen production not only offers significant cost reductions but also enhances safety, ensures compliance, eliminates waste, and provides full control over your oxygen supply chain.

Selecting the appropriate equipment is vital for those considering the transition to onsite oxygen generation. A good understanding of each component’s role will help achieve optimal performance once your system is operational.

What does an onsite oxygen system look like?

A standard onsite oxygen generation setup typically includes an air compressor, oxygen generator, dryer air, air receiver, filters, oxygen buffer, and storage unit. The specifics of your setup can vary based on your facility’s oxygen needs.

Is compressed air necessary for oxygen generators?

Yes, oxygen generators require air compressors. These systems utilise clean, dry compressed air to ensure a steady supply of high-purity oxygen. By attaching an oxygen generator to an air compressor, the system efficiently isolates oxygen molecules from other gases in the air, thereby delivering purified oxygen. This process is achieved using either Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA), a technology that cyclically adsorbs and desorbs gases under pressure to isolate oxygen molecules from the compressed air.
