Common Mistakes When Buying an Oxygen Booster
Five costly mistakes hospitals and plants make when purchasing oxygen boosters, and how to avoid them.

Buying an oxygen booster seems straightforward until problems appear months later. After helping many customers, we have seen the same costly errors repeated.

Key Selection Factors

  • True oil-free design ensures zero contamination
  • Stainless steel parts are critical for oxygen safety
  • Multi-stage configuration controls heat and improves efficiency
  • Temperature monitoring and automatic protection are vital

Five Common Mistakes

1. Buying the cheapest without checking oxygen compatibility

2. Undersizing stages - calculate peak demand and add 20% buffer

3. Skipping proper inlet treatment - install dryers and filters upstream

4. Ignoring after-sales support - choose suppliers with local parts

5. Overlooking cooling needs - ensure ventilation or choose water-cooled
