Lianbang VSA Oxygen Generator saves 50%~70% compared with liquid oxygen, and an extra 30%~40% compared with conventional PSA.The longer the service life and the larger the consumption, the more obvious the advantages are, with a payback period of 1–2 years.

The Advantages Of X-Series Oxygen Concentrators


II. Unit Cost Comparison (RMB/Nm³, comprehensive cost)

Lianbang VSA Oxygen Generator: 0.28~0.42

Conventional PSA Oxygen Generator: 0.40~0.65

Purchased Liquid Oxygen: 0.70~1.40


III. Core Advantages of Union VSA (Technical & Cost)

Low-pressure Oil-free VSA Technology

Adsorption pressure < 0.1 MPa, power consumption 30%~40% lower than conventional PSA.

Oil-free air compressor, completely eliminating oil contamination and ensuring cleaner oxygen.

Extremely Low Maintenance Cost

Molecular sieve service life: 8–12 years (only 3–5 years for conventional PSA).

Oil-free design eliminates oil filters and lubricants, reducing annual maintenance cost by over 50%.

More Stable Operation

Oxygen concentration steadily maintained at 93%±3%.

Intelligent frequency conversion, adaptive load regulation, and remote operation & maintenance.

Single-tower structure with small footprint, low investment, and high reliability.

Optimal Comprehensive Cost

50%~70% cheaper than purchased liquid oxygen.

An extra 30%~40% cheaper than conventional PSA.

Payback within 1–2 years under continuous oxygen usage.


IV. Recommended Application Scenarios

Recommended: Union VSA Oxygen Generator

Daily oxygen consumption ≥ 200 Nm³ with continuous and stable usage.

Hospitals, healthcare centers, industrial oxygen use, and remote areas.

For users seeking long-term cost savings, low maintenance, high reliability, and unmanned operation.

 Liquid Oxygen Only for Short-term Use

Daily oxygen consumption < 1000 Nm³ with intermittent usage.

Short-term projects or planned relocation/closure within 3 years.
