Refurbishing AV-8 On-Board Oxygen Generation System Beds

Abstract

The Crew Systems Branch, Crew Technology Div, USAF SAM, has carefully prepared specific procedures and instructions to provide users of the AV-8 On- Board Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS) with detailed information and requirements on refurbishing OBOGS beds. Included in the instructions on disassembling, repacking, and assembling the OBOGS beds, are specific procedures for determining the activity and, if necessary, activating the molecular sieve before the beds are repacked. In addition, technics and procedures are detailed for testing the repacked beds prior to reassembly of the concentrator to ensure efficient air separation.
