Do not use liquid directly on the unit. Clean the exterior of unit and power cord
only with a mild household cleaner applied with a damp cloth or sponge, and then
wipe all surfaces dry.
3.2 Patient, Provider, and Routine Maintenance
AirSep does not require any preventative or routine maintenance on the VisionAire concentrator.
VisionAire’s unique design and technology allows for a virtually maintenance-free oxygen
concentrator. You do not need to perform any maintenance as long as the VisionAire unit
remains within specifications at the desired flow rate.
The VisionAire does not incorporate an external air intake gross particle filter or
batteries that require replacement.
3.2.1 Product Filter – No Maintenance Required
The product filter is located internally within the unit’s product tank. There is no
requirement for replacement. It is designed to last for the life of the concentrator.
3.2.2 Preparing for New Patient Use/Method of Cleaning and Infection
Control
When you remove the VisionAire from a patient’s home or facility, always dispose of the
used cannula and humidifier bottle. Clean the exterior of the VisionAire with soapy
water solution or mild household cleaner applied with a damp cloth or sponge to remove
any gross debris. Do not use liquid directly on unit, and be careful not to get liquid into
the interior of the unit.
Next, following same guidelines above, clean the exterior with either a common
chemical disinfectant or bleach solution*, wear eye and skin protection. After using the
disinfecting solution, wipe entire unit with a cloth or sponge applied with water only,
then wipe dry. Make sure unit is completely dry and then retest it before you return it to
inventory.
*
The manufacturers of sodium hypochlorite products recommend various strengths
of a bleach solution for killing bacteria, etc., based on the type of germ to disinfect;
however, a generally recommended solution is ¾ cups of household bleach per
gallon of water.
