Maintaining your PCI DOCS Systems

DOCS Key Technical Service Tip!

A key advantage to PCI’s Deployable Oxygen Concentration System’s (DOCS) is the simplicity of preventive maintenance during the year. While maintenance for an oxygen generator DOCS unit is not difficult or time consuming to perform, it is critical to ensure reliable and efficient operation. By implementing a proper routine and performing the key inspection and maintenance steps outlined in your DOCS operation and maintenance technical manual, you will significantly increase the life of the blower, adsorber vessel and scroll booster compressor thus lowering overall power consumption.

If you have interest in obtaining further preventive maintenance or technical information, please email us at insidesales@pcigases.com or contact Tom Saari – Global Product Line Director – O2 Solutions at tsaari@pcigases.com.

VSA Technology

To produce oxygen from air, PCI uses a proprietary Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) process that eliminates many of the design problems associated with traditional on-site gas separation systems (PSA). Our innovative VSA system eliminates the need for process valves, feed air compressors, associated dryers and feed air filtering systems. Our robust VSA oxygen process extracts maximum sieve and power efficiencies = low cost (both CapX and OpX) high purity oxygen generation. Oxygen produced is 93% purity. Additional product/systems features include load following, remote monitoring and diagnostics along with an industry only 10-year warranty on the adsorber bed vessel. Average life span of our systems is 10-15+ years.
