Introduction
Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use
indoors. 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.
