ULTRAOX SC Oil-Free PSA Medical Oxygen Plant

Q: Is ULTRAOX SC oil-free?

The air compressors are. ULTRAOX SC uses ULTRACECO SC oil-free scroll compressors. ULTRAOX ST uses ULTRASCREW oil lubricated screw compressors.

Q: What purity does it deliver?

93% ± 3%, conforming to European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) and United States Pharmacopeia (USP) specifications for medical oxygen.

Q: What capacity range is available?

16 models, from 3.10 Nm³/h on ULTRAOX 30 to 165.3 Nm³/h on ULTRAOX 1640.

Q: What happens if purity drops?

An alarm is raised at 90% purity. If purity falls below 90%, the oxygen flow is shut off and purged.

Q: What are the air and oxygen pressures?

Air inlet > 7.5 bar and oxygen outlet 5 to 6 bar.

Get the highlights.

The ULTRAOX SC plant produces medical oxygen at 93% ± 3% purity from compressed air, with ULTRACECO SC oil-free scroll compressors and an ULTRACON PSA generator. It is Medical CE marked (CE 1639) under Directive 93/42/EEC and compliant with EN ISO 7396-1 (Medical gas pipeline systems).

Oil-free scroll compression

ULTRACECO SC oil-free scroll air compressors, with belt drive for easier maintenance and automatic start-stop sequencing.

Purity under control

An ULTRACON dual-column PSA generator delivers continuous flow. Alarm threshold at 90% purity, with oxygen flow shut off and purge if purity falls below 90%.

Sized to the site

Factory integration and site-specific sizing take local climate and installation conditions into account, in three altitude bands up to 3,000 m.

Filtered oxygen

Precision media captures particles down to 0.01 µm, with autoclave-sterilisable media, integrity-tested to exceed HTM 02-01 (Medical gas pipeline systems).
