3.2. Maintenance by the Patient
3.2.1. Cannula Replacement
The nasal cannula should be replaced on a regular basis. A single lumen cannula of 4 to
25 feet in length must be used. Inogen has certified its performance data with the Salter
Laboratories 16SOFT cannula.
CAUTION
Do not use total cannula tubing length exceeding 25 feet with the Inogen One
G5 unless proper saturation has been verified by a clinician.
3.2.2. Particle Filter Cleaning and Replacement
On the sides of the Inogen One G5, ambient air passes through two particle filters that
remove dust fragments. These particle filters must be cleaned on a weekly basis to ensure
adequate air flow through the device. If the particle screens are not cleaned frequently, the
life expectancy of the concentrator will be shortened due to higher internal operating
temperatures.
Particle filters should be cleaned using a mild liquid detergent (such as Dawn
TM
) and water
solution; be sure the filters are rinsed in water and allowed to air dry before reuse.
Additional replacement filters may be obtained from Inogen. There are other types of filters
inside the Inogen One G5 that provide additional filtration. Maintenance of these filters is
not required under normal operating conditions.
3.2.3. Column Change Procedure
There are two columns in the concentrator as a single metal assembly that can be seen
on the underside of the device. These columns should be removed and replaced when
column service is required (indicated by “Change Columns” message). Ensure adequate
time is allotted to complete all steps without disruption when performing this
maintenance.
1. Turn off the concentrator by pressing the power button.
2. Remove the battery from the concentrator.
3. Lay the concentrator down on its side so that the underside is visible.
4. Press the latch button away from the columns to unlock the column assembly.
5. While holding the latch open, slide the column assembly out of the device by
pulling on the column pull handle.
6. Remove the columns completely from the concentrator.
Installation of the new columns:
