Fantastic!! Thank you , Thank You, Thank you!!!! I will be building at least one of these to supply my surface mix torches for repairing glassware. Thank you agin for the clear instructions and list of materials.
Thanks brother you are doing great👍
Could you link us to the PDF of the diagram in the video ?

Good work dude. You should add paypal to you website pay options for the kit. Paypal is so ubiquitous right now that now having it spells loss in sales. I almost bought!
Subscribed! What type of molecular sieves are you using? The method I know of to concentrate O2 using sieves uses high pressure (pressure swing absorption), and due to the pressures involved, usually the sieve canisters are made out of metal. Are you not using high pressures? Or are the pressures low enough that the PVC can handle it?
I believe he said in an earlier video that he's running the compressor at 30 psi.

I know this is a little late and I don't know if anyone keeps up with this youtube account but I wanted to ask... Has anyone taken into account the flamability of pvc (I.E. it being fuel in a oxygen saturated enviroment). I'm not asking this to diminish the work you guys did coming up with this amazing solution to a problem. I am asking as I am not an engineer but I do love this sort of thing. I have been reading research papers involving temperature and pressure variables and how they effect molecular sievs. I have had a few knowlegable old timers warn me about oily rags or even using lubricants on oxygen equipment. I remember the accident during the apollo program that I won't elaborate on. I want to say I have even seen liquid fuel rockets using pvc or some sort of acrylic as the fuel.
Is this a non issue due to the working pressure of the oxikit design? If pressure were increased would this need to be considered? I understand there generally needs to be a ignition source but that can come in any number of ways. Anyways, I am just asking to better understand when it becomes a dangerous concern (I.E. all the variables align to where it could ignite). I think people who work with high purity oxygen (no matter the field) get too complacent or simply forget how dangerous it can be given certain circumstances.
Lastly, thanks for the efforts from all the people that worked on this. It showcases the better aspects of human nature and gives me some much needed faith in humanity.
Even steel is a consumable fuel in the presence of oxygen. We just try to never light our generators on fire🔥 or expose them to heat
The Apollo oxygen fire was no accident. A few days before the head astronaut said the lunar mission would be a failure and hung a lemon on a coat hanger and hung it on the capsule as to say it's a lemon. A few days later he was incinerated
Where to get this parts some of them i never saw before. Like thoose plastic mesh like canister ends. The pdf you need is on Github but its not in order. I Need to convert all meassurments into European standards . Knowing the order of assembly was abit tricky fallowing the pdf so greatfull for this videos but where to find the parts? Other than that this concentrator performs wery well indeed .
How many liters will the zeolite last? Can it be consistently reused or does one have to buy new zeolite every X liters of O2 produced ?
ive seen guys refurb machines 5+ years old with the same zeolite.. ive broken up and resifted mine and refilled my sieves with it and increased purity by 20%
@@brandonevil9416 There is a way to make used zeolite clean again. I don't know off hand.
@@johnkoury1116are you talking about baking it off to rid the N and CO². To my knowledge, that's like 900°-1000° for a few hours, then ramp down the heat gradually, essentially annealing it.
I put steel plate on a thick walled steel pipe (base, lid), a crucible essentially (you can get as fancy as you want; weld it, hinge/mending plate, tap it, down to using hose clamps you took off your roommates air filter on their car - you are your own limitation) and throw it in my wood stove for most of a night, pull it out, let it 'cool' on the stove top for a half hour, then move it up to my drying rack to round out the night. It's not exact science this way, but it's effective, mindless and quick enough.
please can i get those diagrams of fittings?
please can you help me on how to get this kind of sieve, am in ghana and really need it
and if you really want people to make these things and you help to world you should be answering the question people are asking below
It's literally taking this guy 3 minutes to glue the first fitting on wait I'm sorry it's 11 minutes in and he's finally got the first piece glued
You use lithiun or sodium zeolite?? And what the size of tour siwvw bwd canister??
Hi whats the specification for air compressor? Can i use compressor used to filling moto bike air?
I know it has been a while but I just got here and yes you can use a regular shop compressor.
Where i can get that filter ? Please tell me
does the material INSIDE-- ever need to be REPLACED-- does it wear out??
Yes it gets contaminated. There are specs on how hot you need to heat it to drive off excess moisture that may build up even with a prefilter. This way they spheres can be rejuvenated. The beds do need to be replaced but last many cycles and longer if the material is heat dried when it's effectiveness decreases.
Which PVC it is? Is it UPVC, CPVC or any other medical grade?
how far is your machine? Thanks..
Regular PVC.
Where can I get one
Do you sell the kits and how to get one?
please show the drawing of them ,thannks
What Zeolite are you using?
he has mentioned in his post on web page, that is "lithium x zeolite"
Sodium 13x. See zeolite info on www.oxikit.com
@@OxiKit what size that you use
Hello, Where do you buy white plastic zeolite tubes?
These are just PVC drain pipes that are from the hardware store. They are filled with zeolite spheres x-13 and doped with lithium if you can get it. Oh wait he said he lists it on his website- sodium doped.
I try to make the tutorial as Vidio, but the result of oxygen concentratiom only about 50%,can you give suggestion
Purity is affected strongly by two things: temperature and pressure. Get the air from the compressor as dry and cool as you can before sending into the sieves. Also make sure the pressure is maintained. Pressure drops might be from a leak in the plumbing. (Lots of places you can spring a leak)
Sir can I purchase this kit from you ?
Sir can you please guide me how much zeolite is needed for oxygen flow rate of 25lpm
how far is your machine ? Thanks
6 pounds. three pounds in each tank.
This may be totally legit but 100% of fake videos on youtube always drag out tedious construction details and this one takes that to an extreme. I've wasted countless hours on other youtube videos waiting for the final "product" only to realize the whole thing is a scam. I'm not saying this is a scam, but what takes 21 min in this video could have been accomplished in about 4min with a diagram and demonstration. That make me suspicious.
Where do I get zeolite? I need about 1000 grams
And actually give the name of the fittings even though I'm a plumber and I know what they are most people will not
Where can i get this zeolite? Pls
we ship zeolite internationally on www.oxikit.com
People seriously Google it it's everywhere you can get it at aquarium stores you can get it at just about any kind of place with pet supplies
Sir purchase to oxy kitt and pay to shop link has given by oxykit website but after payment didn't get any shipping tracking number
It absorbs impurities like water and you can refresh it by drying it in an oven and repacking it.
how to get oxygen more oxygen using zioelite
Can you send me pdf link, diagrams in this pandemic situation?
Visit oxikit.com
And you take entirely too long explaining how to put this thing together
Yeah you're not getting a full view buddy
Why is Norton SafeWeb classifying oxikit.com as a "known dangerous webpage"? Has your website been hacked or infected with malware?
It's just has outdated website certification., ignore that and you can open.

what would be great is if you didn't explain doing the same thing 3 times in a row
First, normal PVC glue dries odorless, so won't affect the sieve. Second, you should be using plumber's sandpaper to smooth the cut edges, inside and out. Third, slowly twist pieces until it's hard to twist them, that sets and dries the glue. That tool you bought to open cans, most people use pliers or a pipe wrench.. Twist until it's hard to twist, you will get less leaks. We need to know the pound or kilogram rating for spring... Instead of trying to guess what 2 inches is, use a pencil or tape and mark it at just a hair past 2 inches. Use a rag to immediately wipe off excess to make it look perfect. Is this 3inch PVC or 4? How long was pipe cut??? AND WHERE IS THE SECOND HALF OF THIS DUDE????
Isn't this the second half? ua-cam.com/video/kibjku2GYq0/v-deo.html
You must be a plumber like me and thinking this guy takes too long to explain one simple little thing when he's not giving any real measurements or information
It's 3in PVC, he said so in the first video
