ION Oxygen Generator
Ultra-pure oxygen produced in-houseRequest a quote
A revolution in on-site oxygen generation.
A compact, quiet, reliable ionic oxygen generator developed using ceramic technology to produce high purity oxygen directly from the limitless air we breathe. It's a tremendous technological breakthrough in the air gas industry!
The atmosphere is virtually an endless source of free oxygen. Using a specialized non-porous ceramic membrane, with technology developed jointly with NASA scientists for the Space Station, ION’s electrochemical process selectively converts gaseous molecular oxygen into atoms of ionized oxygen. These atoms are immediately drawn into the front-side of a solid ceramic crystal which only accepts oxygen ions. A small, applied DC voltage, (smaller than 1 volt), forces oxygen ions to migrate through the ceramic crystal until they emerge on the backside of the ceramic membrane and are immediately converted back into molecular oxygen.

Revolutionary Ionic Technology
ION’s electrochemical process selectively converts gaseous molecular oxygen into atoms of ionized oxygen using a specialized non-porous ceramic membrane. With a small applied DC voltage, oxygen ions migrate through ceramic crystal until they emerge on the other side of the membrane and are immediately converted back into molecular oxygen.ION FAQ's
