Minor and Oxygen 15 - Need help from the Oxy Doc!

[renee in nola]

Last night I was torching just fine. Today, not even candles. The propane is almost full, cleaned the torch head. I ran my M15 for a long time, cleaned the filters (inside and out) but I'm not getting enough quality O2 to my torch - at least not enough to get candles or anything remotely looking like candles. Is there any other place I should check or clean? Propane is not the problem.

Should I just call tomorrow?

Thanks
renee

So are you only getting the orange flame from the propane no noticable individual candles. If so only turn on the concentrator look at the flowmeter and see it its moving.
If not check the flowmeter is actualy open.
If its open and If you cant see anything visual get some fine paper or tissue paper and see if it moves in front of the torch.
If not can you here the rythmic noise from the compressor.
If you can hear the compressor but have no flow through the indicator. Then i would call the manufacturer. Could be the compressor or one of the isolating valves is not opening.
If you cant hear the compressor call as well.

Hope that helps and its not anything major.

Regards
Andrew.

How long have you had your concentrator ?
