Assured Automation now offers an oxygen-cleaned nickel-plated brass coaxial valve for OEM’s of Oxygen pressure swing adsorption (PSA) generators. This compact, high-cycle, low-cost VA Series valve is ideal for saving space. Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is a technology used to separate a specific gas from a mixture of gases under pressure according to the species’ molecular characteristics and affinity for an adsorbent material.
The VA Series is currently being used successfully by several large OEMs in Europe. The VA Series combines a pneumatic actuator and fast on-off control valve into one body, eliminating packing glands, actuators and mounting kits. There are no exposed moving parts, eliminating pinch points and increasing operator safety. Since the actuator is part of the valve, costs are greatly reduced when compared to standard actuated valves. The valve’s operating life has been tested to well over 1,000,000 cycles.
