O2 generator turning off?? Help!
My O2 generator which has faithfully served me for more than a couple of years has started acting like this:
I run a Carlisle MiniCC on propane with a 5 lpm generator/concentrator. When I light the propane I get a good stong flame, tank is 3/4 full.
I turn on the generator and get a dancing blue design, try to adjust, get an alarm and the generator shuts down.
Anybody know why? (I cleaned the external filter already). If I need new sieve (?) material where do I get it? how is it installed? Any/all help is appreciated. Thank goodness I have another in the barn so I can switch it out while I figure this out.
Susan

I'm having the same issue with my invacare 5lpm machine, a tech said it could be a clogged internal hose so fingers crossed for us both!

There is a thread on TMP about how to troubleshoot and most times fix it for little or no $. Need to remove the cover and look around.
Sometimes the check valves get stuck and need to be gently tapped loose. Very simple to do...
Or maybe a broken drive belt.
