Mountaineers, miners, pilots, and astronomers – people in these professions attest to the irrefutable fact that high altitude affects a person’s physical and mental performances and quality of sleep. This results in impaired performance and productivity for those who work under such conditions. Oxygen enrichment via oxygen concentration is a cost-effective method of combating high-altitude conditions in working and sleeping quarters.

With PCI’s VSA (Vacuum Swing Adsorption) technology, our oxygen generators perform significantly better than other systems at high altitudes. The vacuum step of the cycle benefits from the lower partial pressure, which compensates for the extra energy needed in the air feed step of the cycle.
