SECTION 5 — OPERATING 

INSTRUCTIONS

Introduction

Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use in the 

home. It is an electronically operated device that separates 

oxygen from room air. It provides high concentration of 

oxygen directly to you through a nasal cannula. Clinical 

studies have documented that oxygen concentrators are 

therapeutically equivalent to other types of oxygen delivery 

systems.
Your provider will show you how to use your oxygen 

concentrator. He/She should be contacted with any questions 

or problems regarding your oxygen concentrator. This 

owner’s manual will tell you about your concentrator and will 

serve as a reference as you use your concentrator.

Select a Location

You may select a room in your house where using your 

oxygen concentrator would be most convenient. Your 

concentrator can be easily rolled from room to room on its 

casters.
Your oxygen concentrator will perform best when operated 

under the following conditions. Usage in environments other 

than those described may result in the need for increased 

equipment maintenance. The air intake of the unit should be 

located in a well ventilated area to avoid airborne pollutants 

and/or fumes.
