    Default concentrator beeping

    Visionaire V oxygen conc beeping after half hour. Measured pressure. 8psi constant. Not sure about oxygen level but it is low . flow rate still ok.
    Any help on possible causes?
    Help greatly appreciated. Its driving me crazy thinking about if I have to replace the zeolite. Why 1/2 hr later it acts up ?

    If I'm not mistaken, that beep is a low purity warning.

    Mine did that and after trouble shooting it unsuccessfully, I took it to a place that had a warehouse of concentrators, so many it was mind boggling. Like concentrator heaven. They changed out the zeolite? medium and it fixed the problem. I know people say that's expensive, but they thought it was cool that it was for Glassblowing instead of breathing and they did it for $20. Cash.

    If you can look up the spec sheets on the zeolite it should have temperature ranges and times to heat the zeolite at to refurbish it. As long as the zeolite isn't crushed or powdery they can be rejuvenated.
    don't wash your hands with your sammich.

    Yea I was lucky to find the concentrator repair place. It was in Richmond , VA . I found it by calling company listed on the machine and they steered me to a place closest to me. I hope that could work to help you.
