Abstract

Systems and methods are provided that obtain the same or better level of performance by using lower operating flow rates, pressures and/or optimized flow distributions within the system. This extends the life of system components and lower energy consumption. In one embodiment, gas separation (or sieve) beds that are used to separate gaseous components are provided that have lower flow and pressure requirements compared to conventional beds. The sieve beds include, for example, a diffuser having low solid area in cross-section and maximum open area for flow while providing adequate mechanical properties to contain sieve material and support filter media. In another embodiment, systems and methods are provided having an indicator when a component has been serviced or repaired. This provides an indication whether the component has been tampered with in any manner. This allows the manufacturer to determine if the component was serviced, repaired, or tampered with outside the manufacturer's domain.

Claims (31)

1. An anti-tamper cap for a sieve bed comprising:

a body comprising:

an interior surface and an exterior surface;

the interior surface forming at least part of a gas receiving chamber; and

the exterior surface including:

at least first and second projecting members; and

a space partially enclosed by the first and second projecting members; and

wherein the second projecting member extends around the body and the first projecting member extends partially around the body.

2. The cap of claim 1 , wherein the first projecting member comprises at least one vertically oriented rib.

3. The cap of claim 1 , wherein the first projecting member comprises a plurality of vertically oriented ribs.

4. The cap of claim 1 , wherein the cap body comprises a revolved dome having the at least one projecting member.

5. The cap of claim 1 , wherein the cap body comprises a plurality of first projecting members and a plurality of spaces.

6. The cap of claim 1 , wherein the first projecting member comprises a vertically oriented tab.

7. An anti-tamper cap for a sieve bed comprising:

a body including an interior surface forming at least part of a gas receiving chamber and an exterior surface comprising at least first and second projecting members and a recess between the first and second projecting members;

wherein the second projecting member extends around a perimeter of the body and the first projecting member extends partially around the perimeter of the body.

8. The cap of claim 7 wherein the at least first projecting member comprises a vertically oriented rib extending outwardly from the body.

9. The cap of claim 7 wherein the at least first projecting member provides a visual tamper indication when damaged.

10. An anti-tamper cap for a sieve bed comprising:

a body including an interior surface forming at least part of a gas receiving chamber and an exterior surface comprising at least first and second projecting members and a recess formed by a space between the first and second projecting members;

wherein the second projecting member extends horizontally around the body and the first projecting member extends vertically from the body and partially around of the body.

11. The cap of claim 10 wherein the at least first projecting member comprises a vertically oriented rib extending outwardly from the body.

12. The cap of claim 10 wherein the at least first projecting member provides a visual tamper indication when damaged.

13. The cap of claim 1 wherein the body further comprises a gas flow port comprising a first opening in the interior surface and second opening in the exterior surface and a passageway between the first and second openings.

14. The cap of claim 7 wherein the body further comprises a gas flow port comprising a first opening in the interior surface and second opening in the exterior surface and a passageway between the first and second openings.

15. The cap of claim 10 wherein the body further comprises a gas flow port comprising a first opening in the interior surface and second opening in the exterior surface and a passageway between the first and second openings.

16. The cap of claim 1 wherein the first projecting member comprises an untampered state having a first geometry and a tampered state having a second geometry.

17. The cap of claim 7 wherein the first projecting member comprises an untampered state having a first geometry and a tampered state having a second geometry.

18. The cap of claim 10 wherein the first projecting member comprises an untampered state having a first geometry and a tampered state having a second geometry.

19. The cap of claim 1 wherein the first projecting member comprises an edge, an untampered state having the edge in a first geometry, and a tampered state having the edge in a second geometry.

20. The cap of claim 7 wherein the first projecting member comprises an edge, an untampered state having the edge in a first geometry, and a tampered state having the edge in a second geometry.
