Frequently Asked Questions
How loud is a Stage 2 system?
We make the quietest oxygen compression system on the market! The Stage 2 reaches a very mild 60db at peak which is comparable to the average noise level of a conversation!
How long can I work continuously on a Stage 2 system?
You can use our Oxygen Runtime Calculator to see how different tank sizes and fill rates affect the runtime for different torches. If you don’t know your torch’s flow rate, you can check our list of the most common lampworking torch flow rates here to see if yours is listed.
What purity of oxygen is produced?
Like all PSA oxygen systems, the maximum purity is 96.3%. The remaining impurities consist almost entirely of Argon, an inert gas. To test your purity and ensure it remains within spec, check out our FlameSpec Oxygen Meter and Maintenance Guides.
What oxygen pressures can be achieved?
The system reaches a maximum pressure of 125 PSI however we recommend running it in the base configuration with a maximum pressure of 110 PSI to extend compressor life.
How can I find out how much oxygen I need?
Check out our article on Glass Artist Oxygen Usage to get a better idea of your specific oxygen needs and costs.
What is the maximum throughput of the compressor?
The Stage 2 compressor delivers 3.3 CFM at 40 PSI and 2.4 CFM at 90 PSI. That’s more than enough to run six 10 LPM concentrators while at pressure.
What are the power requirements for a Stage 2?
The Stage 2 PRO requires 3 separate dedicated 15A circuits.
The Stage 2 DUO requires 2 separate dedicated 15A circuits.
The Stage 2 SOLO only requires 1 dedicated 15A circuit.
Can I use 5 LPM and 10 LPM Concentrators together?
Absolutely, with the Stage 2 DUO or Stage 2 Pro any collection of oxygen concentrators can be used together. Different flow rates and/or different oxygen supply pressures will not affect the functionality of the system.
What is the most affordable ready-to-use package?
A Stage 2 SOLO 5-114 is the lowest price full system available. That is a Stage 2 SOLO paired with one 5 LPM Stage 1 oxygen concentrator, and a 30 gallon (114 litre) storage tank. This compact system comes plug-and-play ready to get any hobbyist operating.
Will the Stage 2 work with other brands of oxygen concentrators?
Yes, the Stage 2 has been designed to seamlessly integrate with any of the available oxygen concentrators on the market such as Invacare, DeVilbiss, Airsep and more. Though we strongly recommend bundling the Stage 2 with our Stage 1 Oxygen Concentrators to take advantage of our warranties, replacement parts and service guides.
