What Is Medical Compressed Air ?

Apr 19, 2022

Medical gas systems, also known as life support systems, are used to maintain the lives of critically ill patients and promote their recovery.

Medical compressed air is one of the most important medical gases in the central air supply system, and it is the only "medicine" produced on-site by the hospital (except for some hospitals that use oxygen generators).

 

In the European Pharmacopoeia, compressed air is regarded as a medicine and its composition is specified in detail. Therefore, the management of gas supply equipment in each hospital has a heavy responsibility.

 

1. Solve the problem of oil in the air

After the outside air is processed by the old-fashioned oil-containing air compressor, it often contains a small amount of oil molecules. When the oil-containing medical gas is docked with oxygen and supplied to the interior of the ventilator, the combination of oxygen and oil will cause local explosion and combustion, which is extremely dangerous.

 

In western developed countries, it is clearly stipulated that the oil content in medical gas is less than 0.1mg/m3. Now we usually solve the oil problem in two ways.

 

One is to directly buy oil-free air compressors, but this still needs to be equipped with degreasing equipment;

 

The other is to use compressed air oil removal equipment to remove the oil in the oil-containing air compressor. If the oil compression system is used, the purchase cost is lower, but the back end must be equipped with stable oil removal equipment to ensure the stability and safety of oil-free compressed gas.

 

The gas quality is not up to the requirements, which affects the patient's health or damages the terminal equipment. Especially for hospitals with imperfect equipment management, it is recommended to determine the stability of the gas system.

 

Continuity and reliability of the gas supply are guaranteed throughout the year with minimal maintenance.

 

(2) Solve the problem of water content in the air

The moisture content of the air is often overlooked.

Some hospitals use small portable compressors to drive ventilators. Although this solves the hazard of water, the cost is relatively high, especially for large hospitals with many ventilators. The cost may far exceed the cost of centralized gas supply, and water is still bacteria. The breeding medium can easily cause cross-infection of patients.
