What to do if the green filling light stays on for Invacare HomeFill II?
First, ensure the cylinder regulator is set to Off (O). Check the recommended fill times shown in the individual cylinder’s manual. Verify that the cylinder is connected properly by turning the compressor Off (O), removing the cylinder, and reinstalling it, then turning the compressor On (I). Examine the compressor/concentrator line for proper connection and any damage like leaks or kinks. Make sure the concentrator liter flow setting is at 2.5 L/min or less for Platinum 5 or Perfecto concentrators, or 5 L/min or less for 2 Platinum 9 concentrators. Adjust the liter flow setting if needed (refer to the concentrator user manual). If the green filling light remains on, the compressor and/or concentrator may need service.
How to fix Invacare Air Compressor when no indicator lights are on?
If no indicator lights are on when the compressor is turned on, first turn the compressor Off (O). Check that the power cord is properly plugged into both the compressor and the wall outlet. Then, turn the compressor On (I). Clean the air filters, referring to the Cleaning the Compressor Filter section in the Maintenance part of the manual. If the indicator lights still don't come on after these steps, the unit may need service.
Why does the yellow light stay on with my Invacare HomeFill II?
If the yellow light stays on, first ensure the concentrator has warmed up for at least 20 minutes. If it hasn't, turn the compressor off until it warms up. If the yellow light persists, inspect the connection between the compressor and concentrator for damage or pinching. Replace any damaged parts and straighten any pinched tubing. Turn the compressor Off (O) for at least 10 seconds, then turn it On (I). If the yellow light remains on after 10 minutes, the concentrator may require servicing.
What to do if the red light is on on Invacare HomeFill II?
If the red light is on, check the cylinder gauge to see if it is full. If the cylinder is full, remove it and turn the unit Off. Perform the Cylinder Prefill Inspection (refer to the Usage section of the manual) using a cylinder that is not full. If the cylinder is not full, check that it is connected properly by turning the compressor Off (O), removing the cylinder, and reinstalling it, then turning the compressor On (I). If the cylinder is not full and is connected properly, the compressor may have an internal failure.
Why is my Invacare Air Compressor cycling on and off?
If your compressor is cycling on and off, or if the yellow and green lights are alternating, check that the concentrator liter flow setting is at 2.5 L/min or less for Platinum 5 or Perfecto concentrators, or 5 L/min or less for 2 Platinum 9 concentrators. If needed, adjust the liter flow setting (refer to the concentrator user manual) and wait at least 20 minutes for the green light to appear. If it doesn't appear, the concentrator may need service.
