Optimal humidity: 40%-60%RH, max acceptable 70%RH, avoid over 80%RH

Reasons For The Better Performance Of Lianbang Low-Pressure Oil-Free Oxygen Generators

High Humidity (>70%RH)

Molecular sieve absorbs moisture, oxygen concentration drops permanently.

Condensation causes circuit short circuit, sensor failure and metal corrosion.

Mold breeds in pipelines and filters, triggering air contamination.

Condensed water backflow damages internal components.

Low Humidity (<40%RH)

Dry oxygen irritates respiratory tract, causing dry nose and sore throat.

Static electricity disturbs electric parts; rubber seals age and leak air.

Compressor abrasion intensifies, shortening service life.

Maintenance Tips

Place the unit in dry ventilated area, away from bathroom and kitchen.

Use dehumidifier or humidifier to keep proper humidity.

Replace and clean filters regularly; use distilled water in humidifier bottle.

Run the machine periodically to remove internal moisture.
