Oil-less swing compressor development.

Number: pap. 1668

Author(s) : HUGENROTH J.

Summary

An overview of the development of an oil-less rotary swing compressor is presented. The compressor was developed for use in portable oxygen concentrators (POCs), which are used by patients that require supplemental oxygen. An extensive analytical and experimental program was conducted to develop the technology. Implementation of the oil-less swing compressor resulted in a POC system weight reduction of 24%, with a 24% reduction in power. In addition, the volume of the system was reduced by approximately 37% with a 2 dBA reduction in the noise level.
