The person in charge of the installation has overall responsibility of the product environment requirements.
He is also in charge of setting up methods of struggle against fire and to protect the oxygen concentrator against shocks, flooding,
earthquake and corrosion.
The technician or exploiting are responsible for building construction and civil engineering infrastructures or earthwork.
Outdoor deadline pressure (snow, wind, rain...) must be taken into account. Environmental constraints must be managed.
According to the standard NFS99-175 (§ 5-7-3), oxygen concentrator or air units must not be in the same room as gas bottles and
non-cryogenic liquid. The ISO 7396-1: 2016 only indicates that machines with electric motors such as air compressors must not be
installed in the same room as gas and non-cryogenic liquid cylinders. The risk of contamination or fire linked to neighbouring
equipment must be taken into account.
The oxygen concentrator should not be in the same room as air production system by compressor, medical vacuum production
system, supply system by bottle or frame of bottle and supply system by cryogenic or non-cryogenic, mobile or fixed bowls.
The installation must be carried out by a qualified personnel and must respect the requirements of the standards and
regulations in force (in particular ISO 7396-1: 2016 standards).
6.2
Concentrator room ventilation
The room must have an appropriated constant ventilation considering temperature level and eventually, ambient oxygen rate too.
Room is equipped with a control device of the oxygen content with sound warning and visual alarms. It is recommended to set these
alarms outside the premises.
Concerning the ventilation of the room, we recommend an air flow rate equal to the sum of the air consumption of the exhaust
concentrator (compressor flow) and the renewal of 6 times the volume of the room per hour.
Example
: For a concentrator PRO
2
XY OX13, air flow rate of the installed compressor is
188 m³/h
.
If the concentrator is installed in a room of 30 m² x (h=2.7 meters) = 81 m³, the renewal per hour corresponds to
486 m³/h
. The sum
of the two air flow rates corresponds to 188 + 486 = 674 m³/h. The ventilation must be equal to, at minimum,
674 m³/h.
The O
2
concentrator should be installed in an appropriate site that:
is ventilated, clean and without dust,
is temperate: temperature b5°C and +40°C,
has sufficient space so that maintenance can be carried out,
maximum altitude: 1000 m (in case of higher altitude, consult us)
maximum relative humidity:

Recommendations and precautions for installation
Further to the French NF S95-175 Standard, chapter 5.4.2, the emergency source of oxygen must consist in high pressure oxygen
cylinders (or bundle(s) of cylinders) or 93% oxygen or cryogenic vessels.
The outside or inside premises for oxygen production systems have to meet the following requirements:
when the premises are situated near a heat source like an oven, an incinerator or a heater, it is necessary that the building
allows the premises temperature not to exceed 40°C.
it is necessary to place the premises at more than 3 meters from an electrical transformer.
it is necessary to avoid placing the premises near fuel storage tanks.
it is necessary that premises have a concrete floor.
it is necessary that fences and walls be at a height of not less than 1.75 m.
it is necessary that a warning notice be placed on both sides of each door: for example:
Warning
–
Oxygen // Smoking prohibited // No open flame or sparks
No oil or grease // Never place any combustible material no closer than 5 m
Regarding the additional electrical consumption generated by the oxygen concentrator running operation, a modification of the
power supply may be necessary.
