Medical clean air source air compressor

Medical clean air source air compressors are key equipment in the medical field and need to meet strict requirements such as high cleanliness, low noise, and stable pressure. The following is a detailed explanation from three aspects: characteristics, uses and technical requirements:

1. Core characteristics

  1. Oil-free lubrication technology
    Use water lubrication or nano-coating to replace traditional lubricants to ensure the absolute purity of the output gas and avoid oil contamination of medical equipment or contact with patients.

  2. quiet design
    The operating noise is less than 60 decibels (equivalent to indoor conversation), which meets the hospital’s requirements for a quiet environment.

  3. high-efficiency energy-saving
    The output is automatically adjusted through frequency conversion technology to reduce energy waste, and the energy-saving efficiency of some models is increased by 30%.

  4. Bacteriostatic treatment
    Built-in antibacterial coating (such as nano-silver ions) to effectively inhibit Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc. to ensure gas safety.

2. Main uses

  1. Gas supply to medical equipment

    • ventilator: Provide stable air source to drive piston movement to ensure patient respiratory support.
    • dental equipment: For example, grinding machines and sandblasting machines need to be driven by high-pressure gas to ensure treatment efficiency.
    • oxygen generator: Provide air source for oxygen concentration equipment to support patients ‘oxygen therapy needs.
  2. laboratory support
    Provide high-purity compressed air for gas chromatographs, mass spectrometers, etc. to meet experimental accuracy requirements.

  3. surgery assistance
    Drive precision instruments such as operating tables and shadowless lights to ensure smooth operation.

3. Technical requirements

  1. Gas Quality Standards
    • particulate matter: ≤0.05μm (requires a high-efficiency filter).
    • moisture content: ≤0.05ppm (requires installation of non-thermal regenerative dryer).
    • dew point: ≤-40℃ (some high-precision scenes need to reach-70℃).
  2. Pressure and stability
    • exhaust pressure: Stable output of 7-8 Bar is required and a safety valve is required (pressure relief pressure ≤8.8 Bar).
    • pressure fluctuations: ≤±0.1 Bar to avoid affecting the accuracy of medical equipment.
  3. safety design
    • explosion-proof structure: Comply with ATEX explosion-proof standards to prevent sparks from causing explosions.
    • temperature control: Exhaust temperature ≤ ambient temperature +15℃ to avoid high temperature damage to equipment.
  4. Materials and Certification
    • contact material: Made of 316L stainless steel or anodized aluminum, which is corrosion resistant.
    • industry certification: Need to pass ISO 10083 (Medical Gas System Standard), CE and other certifications.

4. Selection and maintenance suggestions

  1. equipment selection
    • Displacement matching: Select the displacement according to the total demand for gas equipment (for example, 0.5-1 m³/min is selected for a dental clinic).
    • redundancy design: It is recommended to reserve a 20% margin to deal with equipment expansion or sudden demand.
  2. regular maintenance
    • replace the filter element: Replace the air filter every 2000 hours and the oil-water separator every 5000 hours.
    • Dryer inspection: Check the dryer dew point quarterly to ensure gas dryness.
  3. environment adapting
    • installation position: Keep away from hot and humid areas and ensure good ventilation.
    • supply voltage: It is necessary to match the rated voltage of the equipment (e.g. 220V±10%) to avoid abnormal pressure.

V. Summary

Medical clean gas source air compressors need to combine the special needs of medical scenarios to ensure gas quality and safety throughout the entire process from design to maintenance. It is recommended to give priority to brands with oil-free lubrication, silent design and industry certification, and select scientifically based on actual gas consumption to ensure the stable operation of medical equipment and the health and safety of patients.
