Abstract: Apparatus and method for managing an oxygen generating system configured for supplying a sustained flow of oxygen, which may include a control box. The control box may include an oil-less air compressor configured to pump the oxygen to an oxygen storage tank from at least two banks of at least one oxygen generator. The control box may include or be connected to a pressure sensor associated with the oxygen storage tank. The control box may further include one or more controller devices configured to control at least two circuits for providing power to the at least two banks of at least one oxygen generator. The one or more controller devices may be configured to switch on or off each bank of oxygen generators in response to particular threshold pressures associated with the storage tank. The one or more controller devices may also be configured to control the oil-less air compressor.

Abstract: A method for managing an oxygen generating system includes receiving a first pressure signal associated with a first pressure of a tank, and determining the first pressure to be less than or equal to a startup threshold pressure. The method includes sending a signal to switch a first circuit on, said first circuit for providing power to a bank of oxygen generators. The method includes sending a signal to switch a second circuit on, said second circuit for providing power to an air compressor. The method also includes receiving a second pressure signal associated with a second pressure. The method also includes determining the second pressure to be greater than or equal to a shutoff threshold pressure, said second pressure associated with a pressure of the tank. The method also includes sending a signal to switch the first circuit off, and sending a signal to switch the second circuit off.
