Laboratory Test and Evaluation of the Litton Model F15E Molecular Sieve Oxygen Generating System

Abstract

The Litton Model F15E Molecular Sieve Oxygen Generating System, was tested for environmental and electromagnetic interference/compatibility in the UH-60A helicopter under the U.S. Army Program for Testing and Evaluation of Equipment for Aeromedical Operations. The tests were conducted using current military and industrial standards and procedures for environmental tests and electromagnetic interference/compatibility and human factors. The Litton Model F15E performed properly in the test environments. It consistently produced high concentration (greater than 90%) oxygen at an output flow of 27 lpm. The unit produces a significant amount of noise while operating. The unit is susceptible to radio frequency interference from 40-41 MHz and some broadband emissions exceeded the test criteria.
