The Use of an Oxygen Plant for Ampoules Production

All pharmaceutical companies need glass ampoules or vials for filling medicines that can be injected into the body of critical patients. These ampoules are made of thick glass to prevent spilling out of inner contents.

Oxygen is used in lighting the burner that melts glass to create ampoules. Thus, MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd provides an oxygen plant for the ampoules manufacturing process to its clients.

Special features of oxygen plant that helps manufacture ampoules

PSA oxygen plant is provided by MVS Engineering, which applies the latest version of Pressure Swing Adsorption technology for bulk production of pure oxygen. This technology makes the operation of this machine very simple so that no additional training is required for users to handle its operation.

● It can produce up to 95% pure oxygen that acts as fuel for a gas burner. This burner is essential for glass fusion in the formation of ampoules. The flame of the burner flares up with the help of oxygen and melts the tips of a glass ampoule, and seals it instantly, securing the medicine filled in it.

● The gas pressure of 5 Kg/cm2g is perfect for delivering oxygen via pipelines to all the burners in a production site.

● The dew point of oxygen produced from a PSA generator is (-) 40°C. It means this gas is extremely dry, which is beneficial for lighting a gas burner. Moist oxygen would be wasted as humid gas cannot burn properly.

Therefore, many pharmaceutical companies can be indirectly benefitted from the oxygen plant for ampoules production. It works with a simple technical process of absorbing nitrogen from the air, leaving pure oxygen for commercial use. It makes the sealing of ampoules much easier and risk-free.
