Summary of model CFZY-XX ozone generator 
CFZY  series  ozone  generators  consist  of  CFY  series  ozone  generator  units  and  FY  series 
oxygen generator units. The ozone generator unit install above, the other below. 
Using  air  as  gas  source,  the  fitting  working  and  detecting  environment  is 
temperature25,relative humidity70%. In case the condition is out of the range, the output of 
ozone will reduce 10-15%, but attain the range, the output will comeback at once. 
Due  to  installing  oxygen  generators  inside,  the  products  is  required  to  place  in  dry  and 
ventilated room worked, for reason one: if split oxygen by using air indoor and putout nitrogen in 
airtight condition long, the oxygen of air indoor will decline, and the concentration of ozone will 
also decline. The second reason: molecular screen of adsorption tin in oxygen generator works in 
humid condition will affect the nature life. 
Our  company  produces  three  common  series  of  CFZY  ozone  generators,  i.e.  CFZY-24B, 
CFZY-36B, and CFZY-50B. The main parameters are as following:

Part I Summary for ozone generating part of model CFZY-XX ozone 
generator   
I. Summary of model CFY ozone generator 
Ozone (O

 is its molecular formula), is allotrope of oxygen. Its molecular structure is easy to 
change  under  normal  temperature  and  normal  pressure,  swiftly  decomposing  to  be  oxygen  (O
2
) 
and  single  oxygen  atoms  (o)  automatically.  Ozone  is  a  high-effective  oxidant  without  secondary 
pollution, since it remains oxygen after it is applied. 
As  a  kind  of  strong  oxidant  and  disinfectant,  ozone  is  widely  applied  to  such  industries  as 
water  treatment  (pure  water,  medium  water  and  wastewater),  foodstuff,  pharmacy,  chemical 
oxygenation and edible fungus, etc. 
1. Working principle: 
Industrial  use  ozone  generator  usually  adopts  principle  of  effluvium  synthesizes  ozone  to 
produce ozone.   
 
As  drawing  shown,  when  oxygen  (or  air)  goes  through  alternation  electric  field  which  is 
excited by high frequency high voltage power supply, part of oxygen molecule decomposes to be 
two oxygen atoms through bombarded by high-speed electron. These oxygen atoms integrate with 
other  oxygen  molecules  to  be  ozone  molecules.  During  this  period,  oxygen  is  just  partially 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              6
translated to be ozone. 
 
 
Following figure is the principle block diagram of ozone generator 
 
As  figure  shows,  oxygen  flowing  through  flowmeter  is  excited  by  high  frequency  high 
voltage  electric  field  in  ozone  board  to  produce  ozone.  As  seen,  ozone  generator  mainly  is 
composed  of  ozone  generating  parts,  which  is  called  as  Ozone  board  and  high  frequency  high 
voltage power supply, which is called as Module. Gas route and circuit inside the equipment are 
being system by themselves, without mutual interference. 
2. Structure characteristic 
Our  company  produces  many  series  of  model  CFY-XX  ozone  generator,  such  as  CFY-3,
CFY-6,CFY-12,CFY-24,CFY-36,CFY-50,and CFY-75. 
All  these  model  ozone  generator  consist  of  ceramic  medium  air-cooled  and  board  shape 
ozone  generating  part  (named  as  ozone  plate),  and  high-frequency  &  high  voltage  power  (named 
as module); It takes oxygen as gas source and cooled by air instead of cooling water. 
From  the  principle  block  diagram,  we  can  know  that  Ozone  plate  and  module  are  the  core 
parts  of  various  specifications  of  ozone  generator.  It  is  special  for  Ozone  plate  and  module  of 
model CFY-3 and CFY-6 ozone generator, however, for model CFY-12 and above is composed of 
repeating CFY-12B ozone plate and CFY-12B module. 
For example: Ozone generating unit of model CFY-12 ozone generator consists of one piece 
of 12B ozone plate and one block of 12B module, and model CFY-24 consists of one piece of 24B 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              7
ozone  plate  which  composed  of  repeating  12B  ozone  plate  up  and  down,  and  two  blocks  of  12B 
module. 
This  kind  of  module  combination  type  structure  provides  clear  hiberarchy  and  function, 
which  is  not  only  easy  for  standardization  production  in  batch,  but  also  for  operation  and 
maintenance.

II. Requirement to user 
1. Gas source: Because of installing oxygen generator inside, CFZY series ozone generator can change 
air into oxygen with PSA principle, and then takes this oxygen as its source, therefore, the air around 
the  equipment  is  gas  source.  It  is  required  that  the  environment  of  equipment  should  be:  clean,  dry, 
ventilated 
2.  Power  supply:  230V50Hz  AC  is  required  by  ozone  generator,  distribution  panel  board  shall  be 
equipped  with  air  switch  (or  knife  switch)  and  three-hole  single-  phase  socket  which  rated  power 
consumption  shall  be  higher  than  that  of  relevant  different  ozone  generators  shown  as  Table  1. 
Grounding foundation of three-hole socket must be grounding, and connecting method of fire line and 
zero line must be correct. 
Note:  Required  power  supply  is  ' I ,    stabilized  voltage  power  supply  is 
additionally mounted for which is above 250V or below 210V, otherwise, it is easy to damage the 
power module for long-term running under super low voltage or high voltage. 
3.  It  is  required  that  machine  room  must  be  dry,  cool  with  good  ventilation  (moisture  room  easily 
causes  ozone  boards  high  voltage  power  crossing,  to  damage  the  ozone  board).  Using  condition: 
environment  temperature:  5~45;  relative  humidity>90%.Ozone  generator  can  run  continuously 
under the above condition. 
4.  Grounding:  Grounding  point  of  equipment  must  be  strictly  grounding  (Note:  zero  line  cant  be 
regarded as ground line).   
 
III. Warning 
1. Laypeople is prohibited to disassemble the machine shell without authorization, for ozone generator 
is under high voltage. 
2.  This  machine  is  metal  shell.  In  order  to  ensure  safety,  it  must  have  reliable  grounding  (absolutely 
prohibit from taking Zero line as Ground line). 
3. Power must be cut off when replacing fuse. 
4. It must strictly prevent water back flowing into ozone generator from the ozone outlet. 
5. The combustible (solid, liquid, and gas)is prohibited strictly be kept in machine room. 
6. It is strictly prohibited that using this machine to deal with any combustible liquid or gas, otherwise, 
possibility of explosion will occur. 
 
IV. Installation
It must read this instruction book carefully before installation and adjustment. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              9
1.  Place  the  machine  at  proper  position,  ventilation  sides  can  not  be  block  off,  above  50CM  space  is 
better to be kept for both sides. 
2. It must do preparation for electricity, grounding as per III requirement for userbefore installing the 
equipment. 
3. Take down the sealed nut of ozone outlet and screw down the underside door of machines face view, 
then  take  down  the  face  panel  of  oxygens  noiseproof  box,  take  out  the  bubble  shockproof  matthis 
shockproof is use for preventing intense shock of air  compressor in transportation. Ozone outlet hose 
shall be connected until the machine start up and produce ozone and be connected check valve (fitting 
followed with the equipment). 
 
V. Adjustment and operation
1. Start up the machine 
(1)Switch on the power using single phase three core power line. 
(2)Push  the  green  button,  the  green  indicating  lamp  turn  on,  and  ozone  generator  start  to  work. 
Check  if  the  indication  of  the  Ampere  meter  matches  corresponding  one  on  the  indicated  value  for 
ozone  generator  of  table  1  in  this  instruction  book.  If  they  basically  match  and  the  current  is  stable, 
and ozone can be smelt from the outlet, it shows the unit is working well. Record the current value for 
future reference. Please record the working initial current value of this unit is                  A. 
(3) That three seconds after pressing  green button is the prepareing phase  of ozone generator for 
reserve  gas.  After  this  three  seconds,  oxygen  generator  start  to  pressurize  and  discharge  pressure 
normally and periodically. Equipment start to run in normal. 
(4) Distinguish normal working sound of oxygen generator 
When oxygen generator runs in normal, it will send out two regular sounds after turned on: 
        sound of compressors motor and    cylinders piston runs is ululantin regular. 
  Recurrent switching sound: 
The switching sound is very regular in cycles. 
  Users  shall  be  familiar  with  the  normal  running  sound  of  oxygen  generator,  for  it  is  very 
important  to  distinguish  the  failure.  Every  day,  turn  on,  and  listen  silently  for  a  while.  After 
distinguish the sound is in normal, then read the value of flowmeter and working current value of 
ozone generator. If all are in normal, it can affirm that oxygen generator and ozone generator and 
ozone generator run in normal. 
(5)  Regulate  the  flowmeter  of  ozone  generator  panel,  so  that  the  float  of  flowmeter  reach  the 
requiring  number  of  rated  flow,  and  feel  at  the  ozone  outlet  by  hand,  it  can  be  felt  that  the  air  is 
blowing out. 
2. Turn off the machine 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              10
(1) Push the red button to stop ozone generator. 
(2) Close the air switch (knife switch) of the distribution panel board. 
3. Operation: 
The Operation procedure of ozone generator of daily using is the same as adjustment. 
Operation of turning on the machine: 
(1) Turn on the power and air switch. 
(2) Push the green start-up button, and the machine start to work. Check if the indicating lamp 
and current value of Ampere meter is normal, and listen if the oxygen generating part works as per 
normal working sounds, if not, stop it and check it at once. 
    Check if the output of ozone is normal, if so, user can start to run the machine.     
Operation of turn off the machine: 
It shall operate as per the counter-procedure of turning on the machine. 
 
VI. Maintenance and nursing to the equipment 
Any  equipment  shall  have  periodical  maintenance  and  nursing.  Since  Model  CFY  ozone 
generator uses air-cooling, air from outside blows into inside of the equipment ceaselessly, as time 
passes,  a  mass  of  dust  must  be  carried  into  the  inside,  attaching  on  the  ozone  plate,  two  kinds  of 
hazard are brought about from the above as following: 
(1)  Lower  the  efficiency  of  heat  dissipation,  therefore,  affect  the  ozone  output  capacity  of 
ozone generator; 
(2)  Lower  the  isolating  power  of  each  insulating  layer,  without  nursing  for  long  time, 
possibility of coming out electric- crossing and breakdown insulating layer will occur. 
Therefore, the equipment must carry out periodical nursing. 
Method and content of nursing is as following: 
  (1) Cut off the power; 
  (2) Screw down the side panel of both side of machine with screwdriver, and unplug the inset 
of fan and take down the grounding nut of fan. 
  (3) Blow off dust in the machine with high-pressure air, especially the dust on ozone plate. For 
the  dust  cannot  be  blown  can  be  removed  by  dry  brush  (toothbrush),  then  blow.  Please  note  that 
ozone plate cannot be washed with water. 
(4) Wipe off accumulated dust on the fan blade with dry cloth, if it can not be removed, please 
use dry brush (toothbrush) to get rid of it;   
  (5)    Keep  record  of  nursing  content:  time,  period,  signature  of  personnel  who  does  nursing 
and person in charge carries out inspection and give signature. 
  (6) Periodical nursing shall be carried out one time per half year generally.   
                                                                                                                                                                                                              11
 
VII. Determination and Resolution of Failure 
Variety  of  current  value  of  each  ozone  generators  ammeter  is  the  main  means  to  find  and 
determine the failure. 
During  the  equipment  in  operation,  working  current  value  is  very  stable,  it  seldom  changes 
unless  power  supply  voltage  has  some  change.  In  case  working  current  value  of  Ampere  meter 
lowers exceed 0.5A, it shall check whether there is any failure on this machine. 
Please refer to the first chapter ofmaintenance manual)for the method of examination and 
resolution. 
 
VIII. Method to emergency of ozone generator occuring failure 
If  oxygen  generator  in  model  CFZY-XX  ozone  generator  occurs  failure,  which  can  not  be 
removed at short time, while ozone generator at upper side runs normally(working current value is 
normal)  and  users  requires  the  ozone  urgently,  thus,  oxygen  bottle  will  be  the  best  choice  to  this 
situation. The method is as following: 
(1)  Remove  back  cover  board,  pull  out  power  socket(white)  of  oxygen  generating  unit,  stop 
the oxygen generating part of ozone generator. 
  (2) Hire a industrial oxygen bottle(used for welding) from oxygen station, deploy a reducing 
valve,  and  connect  gas  outlet  of  reducing  valve  and  gas  inlet  of  flowmeter  of  ozone  generator 
using transparent PVC hose. 
(3)  Two  pieces  air  pressure  gauges  are  available  on  the  reducing  valve,  high  pressure 
gauges shows pressure in bottle, and low pressure gauges shows outlet pressure of reducing valve. 
Please note that general reducing valve used for welding which low pressure gauges full range is 
2.5Mpa,but this machine required oxygen low pressure  gauges indication only is 0.050.1Mpa, 
only 0.5~1 minor meter is shown.   
(4) Turn the screw of reducing valve counter-clockwise, then open the angle of oxygen bottle, now, the high 
pressure gauge of reducing valve shows the oxygen pressure inside of the bottle(the oxygen pressure in a newly 
filled  bottle  is  normally  12~14Mpa).Then  slowly  turn  the  screw  of  reducing  valve  clockwise  to  make  the 
indication of the low pressure gauges finger only 0.05~0.1Mpa(Note: only a small metre on low pressure gauge, 
and dont open too much).

B. Instruction of starting up and debugging 
a.Place  the  oxygen  generator  on  the  flat  ground,  keeping  above  0.5m  space  by  all 
around. Turn on power and switch, oxygen as required will come out continuously. Before 
operating, adjust the floating ball to the rated oxygen flow rate listed on the Table 1, and 
please note the conversion as: Unit for rated flow rate listed on the Table 1 is NL/min, while 
unit of flow meter of ozone generator is NL/h. 
b.Distinguish to the sound from normal running of oxygen generator 
When the  oxygen  generator  works  normally,  there are  two  kinds of  sound  when  it  starts 
running: 
Sound from motor of compressor and piston of cylinder,  which is regular sound as 
Woo  . 
Periodic switch sound as Woo bo qi 
 
It  is  very  important  to  distinguish  the  fault  through  checking  the  sound  of  normal 
running, users shall note whether the sound is normal or not after turning on the machine. 
  (2) Automatic alarm function 
Normal  working  voltage  of  oxygen  generator  is  200~240V,  when  the  voltage  is  above 
240V or less 200V, the compressor will not work normally, and the machine will send alarm 
as buzzing automatically, at this time, user must turn off machine immediately. Where the 
voltage is unstable, manostat is required to be fixed to ensure the oxygen generator work 
normally. 
  (3) Notice 
Room  for  the  oxygen  generator  located  shall  be  kept  ventilation,  clean  and  dry, 
inflammable goods are not allowed to be placed. 
Layman is not allowed to disassemble the machine without permission. If change 
the fuse or maintain the machine, it must cut off the power supply. 
The machine shall be grounded correctly and reliably. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              16
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Chapter Two    Principle, Structure and FunctionalSpecification 
of FY Oxygen Generator 
I. Principle and Flow Chart 
FY-XB  oxygen  generator  adopt  advanced  physical  oxygen  generating  principle, 
separate  oxygen  and  nitrogen  of  air  directly  through  the  function  of  molecular  sieves 
pressure  swing  adsorption  (PSA),  to  get  high  concentration  oxygen  and  provide  oxygen 
persistently. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              17
 
Flow Chart of FY-6B/8B PSA Oxygen Generator 
 
Principle  of  pressure  swing  adsorption:  when  pressuring,  molecular  sieve  adsorb 
Nitrogen  (Nitrogen  molecular  is  adsorbed  in  the  micropore  of  molecular  sieve),  while 
oxygen  molecular  is  few  adsorbed,  most  of  oxygen  molecular  pass  through  the  particle 
surface of molecular sieve; under normal pressure, desorb (exhaust the nitrogen from the 
micropore of molecular sieve) and backlash it to the air with part of oxygen. Run in cycle, it 
can  reach  the  purpose  of  separating  the  oxygen  from  the  air  continuously.  In  order  to 
separate  the  oxygen  continuously,  two  adsorption  tin  are  usually  used,  one  is  for 
pressuring,  adsorbing  and  generating  oxygen,  the  other  is  releasing,  desorbing  and 
exhausting nitrogen. With such cycle running, continuously come out oxygen with above 
90% oxygen concentration. (See page 10 for details of outline structure )

Outline and structure figure of FY-6B/8B oxygen generator 
   
Note: Except for the adsorption tin is different, external and internal structure of FY-6B is 
totally same as that of FY-8B. 
 
2.    Name and Function of Each Spare Parts of FY-XB Oxygen Generator 
Please refer to the photos and flow chart to know each parts name and function of this 
series oxygen generator. 
Take FY-8B as example, carry out description from airflow direction. Other FY-XB series 
oxygen  generator  is  connected  in  parallel  based  on  FY-6B/8B  oxygen  generator,  with 
same principle and maintenance, no more comments hereafter. 
  (1)Filtrating cup 
A  high-effective  filtrating  cup  is  fixed  on  the  FY-8B  oxygen  generator,  which  can  filter 
dust  in  air,  to  keep  the  molecular  sieve  of  adsorption  tin.  It  shall  be  changed  termly  as 
working environment required. 
  (2)Air compressor 
It is the main parts of FY-XB oxygen generator, which function is to compress the filtered 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              20
air to be 0.20.01Mpa compressed air. 
  (3)Air tube 
The material of air tube is silicon rubber.    Since oxygen generator vibrates 
during  running,  there  will  be  crack  and  air  leakage  occurs  when  air  tube 
bumps  against  other  objects.  Please choose spare  parts  from  our  company 
or heat resisting silicon rubber tube when change the air tube. 
  (4)Condenser 
  It  carries  out  cooling  down  the  high-temperature  compressed  air  output  from  the 
compressor, which shall be cleaned dirt retention termly. 
  (5) Fan 
It is applied to cool down condenser and compressor. 
  (6) Air-water separator 
It is applied to separate compressed air and condensate water. 
(7)Control board 
Control board comes out timing signal of adsorption switch. There are two luminotrons 
with green color and red color on the board turning on and off alternately and continuously, 
indicating  switchover  timing.  Its  output  controls  two  2-3  solenoids  on  and  off,  so  as  to 
control adsorption tins  adsorption  and  desorption. The  board also has function of  alarm 
for over voltage and under voltage.   
  (8) Transformer 
It supplies power to thecontrol board. 
  (9) Adsorption tin A and B 
Adsorption  A  and  B  are  the  core  parts  of  this  machine,  inside  of  them  are  molecular 
sieves.  When  2-3  solenoid  A  turns  on,  compressed  air  carries  out  pressurizing  the 
adsorption tin A and adsorbing nitrogen to generate oxygen through the 2-3 solenoid A. At 
the same time, adsorption tin B carries out releasing, desorbing and exhausting nitrogen 
through  2-3  solenoid  B.  During  this  period,  high-concentration  oxygen  is  come  out 
continuously. 
  (10) Two position threeway(2-3) solenoid A and B 
2-3 solenoid A and B carry out pressuring, adsorbing nitrogen to the adsorption tin under 
the control of control board, so that the oxygen flows the adsorption tin smoothly, at this 
time, 2-3 solenoid B carries out reducing pressure, desorbing and exhausting nitrogen to 
the adsorption tin under the function of spring since there is no signal from control board. 
 
 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              21
 
 
 
Timing chart from control board to 2-3 solenoid A and B is as below: 
 
(11) One-way valve 
Its function is to prevent the oxygen in the oxygen tank not backflow to the adsorption tin 
when the adsorption tin reduces pressure. 
  (12) Oxygen storage tank 
Its function is to accumulate oxygen and stabilize the output pressure of oxygen. 
  (13) Bridging 
It is a transparent hosepipe, restriction chock is built in. Little oxygen from the adsorption 
tin A flow into adsorption tin B through the bridging to backlashes nitrogen. 
  (14) Pressure regulating valve 
Pressure  regulating  valve  and  oxygen  store  tank  are  connected  by  the  screw  thread  with  silicon 
rubber  sealing  ring  in  the  middle.  The  valve  can  regulate  the  pressure  of  output  of    oxygen,  which 
regulating  range  is  0.06-0.08Mpa.  Pressure  increases  by  clockwise,  while  decreases  by 
anticlockwise. Value of output pressure is relative with the oxygen concentration, normally 
it is not regulated by large range. 
 
Chapter  Three    Maintaining  and  Trouble  Shooting  of  FY 
Oxygen Generator 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              22
I. Maintaining 
1. Room where oxygen generate is located shall be kept ventilation, clean and dry. 
2. Clean each parts termly, such as compressor and condenser, etc. 
3. Replace filtering cup termly. When carrying out replace, draw out the inside filtrating cup 
by force, and replace with new cup. The period of replacing cup is fixed as per operating 
environment; normally it is 2-12 months.   
II. Trouble Shooting 
There are three kinds of troubles may occurs on the oxygen generator, which is stated as 
following one by one. 
1. Abnormal indication of flow meter 
  (1)Non flowrate indication 
The floater of flow meter does not floating up after normal starting up. 
Refer to Table 3 for Trouble phenomenon, trouble reason and trouble shooting. 
Table 3 
Trouble 
phenomenon 
Trouble reason  Trouble shooting 
 
Air  compressor 
does  not  work(no 
running  sound  of 
compressor) 
Source  jack  socket  of 
compressor  is  not  contact 
well, no power supplied. 
(1)Repair  or  replace  jack  socket 
or supply power directly. 
(2)Check the fuse. 
Capacitance is damaged.  Replace the capacitance. 
Compressor is damaged.  Replace the compressor. 
 
Control  board  is 
damaged.  (can 
hear  compressors 
running  sound,  but 
no  switching 
sound) 
Power  light  on  the  board  is 
off. 
(1)Check  whether  the  15V 
transformer is normal or not. 
(2)Replace the control board. 
Switching  light  on  the  board 
is off. 
Replace the control board. 
Main pipeline inside 
the  oxygen 
generator  is  crack 
seriously. (can hear 
running  sound, 
while other leakage 
noise also exist) 
Main  pipeline  inside  the 
oxygen  generator  broke 
seriously,  and  the 
compressor leaks air largely. 
Replace  the  main  pipeline,  use 
silicon rubber as material. 
 
  (2)Over fluctuation of flow rate 
When the oxygen generator works normally, the indication fluctuation of flow meter is 
very  small  as  normally  is  10%.  When  the  fluctuation  value  is  30%~50%  of  the  normal 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              23
value, it shall be judged as trouble occurs on the oxygen generator. 
 
Refer to Table 4 for Trouble phenomenon, trouble reason and trouble shooting. 
Table 4 
Trouble phenomenon  Trouble reason  Trouble shooting 
Abnormal  switching 
sound  (can  hear 
compressors  running 
sound,  but  switching 
sound is abnormal) 
 
Control  board  is 
damaged,  one  switching 
light  is  on,  the  other  is 
off. 
Replace  the  control 
board. 
2-3  solenoid  is 
damaged. 
Replace  the  2-3 
solenoid. 
Above  part  of  the 
adsorption  tin  leaks. 
(switching  sound  and 
compressors  running 
sound are both normal) 
Pressure  regulating 
valve  leaks  or  the 
diaphragm  inside  valve  is 
damaged. 
Replace  the  pressure 
regulating  valve  or 
replace the diaphragm. 
Oxygen  storage  tank 
breaks and leaks. 
Replace  the  oxygen 
storage    tank. 
The bridging leaks.  Replace  the  bridging  or 
remove  the  leakage 
pipe. 
 
  (3) Alarm of voltage abnormal 
On the control board, there is set supply voltage alarm line. When the AC voltage value 
is higher than 240V or lower than 200V, the alarm send out harsh sound as screech 
When hearing the alarm, user shall check the supply voltage, if the voltage is unstable, 
the user shall equip a manostat. 
2. Oxygen concentration lowers obviously. 
Oxygen  concentration  of  the  oxygen  generator  under  normal  going  shall  be  equal  or 
greater than 90%. 
  (1) Detecting method 
Adjust  the  flow  meter  to  the  rated  oxygen  flow  rate,  so  that  the  outlet  of  oxygen 
generator  has  oxygen  output,  at  this  time,  take  a  oxygen  analyzer  to  test  whether  the 
oxygen concentration meets the required standard or not. 
  (2) Reason and maintenance of oxygen concentration decreasing 
Air leakage 
Any section of air circuit of the oxygen generator occurs leakage will result in under 
pressure when the adsorption tin pressurizing, bringing decrease of oxygen concentration. 
Check the leakage point and remove it. 
Abnormal switchover 
                                                                                                                                                                                                              24
When  the  switchover  is  abnormal,  though  the  change  of  air  flow  rate  is  not  large
15%20%_, oxygen concentration may also lowers. Check the control board and 2-3 
solenoid whether sometimes is normal and sometimes is abnormal, so as to replace the 
damaged accessories. 
Compressor ageing 
The pressure always cannot be up, normal output pressure of air compressor is about 
0.180.22Mpa, since the compressor is aged, the pressure cannot be raised even if the 
pistons snap ring looses. Replace the compressor after confirmation.   
Molecular sieve inside adsorption tin ageing 
Service-life of molecular sieve is about above 5000 hours. After two years operation, 
if the oxygen concentration lowers, it shall replace the adsorption tin. 
Pressure regulating valve is damaged 
If  air  pressure  is  regulated  incorrectly,  the  produced  oxygen  concentration  will  not 
meet the standard. If sealing silicon rubber ring inclines, it shall align and screw it; if the 
sealing ring ages and breaks, it shall be replaced.
