      If your Invacare medical equipment is alarming with short beeps followed by long pauses, and the concentrator isn't operating, here's what you should check: * First, ensure the power cord is properly plugged into the outlet. If it isn't, insert the plug securely. * Next, verify that the outlet has power by inspecting your house's circuit breakers or fuses. If the problem continues, try using a different outlet. For tripped circuit breaker, call Service Provider.

      Heather SchultzAug 7, 2025
      If the yellow or red light is illuminated (continuous alarm on red light only, applicable to 5LXO and 2 10LXO SensO2 models), it indicates a potential issue. Here's what you can check: * Start by cleaning or replacing the filters. * Inspect the tubing, cannula, or humidifier for any kinks or blockages. Correct, clean, or replace the item if necessary, then turn the power off for 60 seconds and back on. * Ensure the flowmeter is set correctly: check the flowmeter is set to 1.0 L/min. or more. * Check for blocked air intake: Remove and clean cabinet filters and move the concentrator at least three inches from walls, draperies, and furniture. * Avoid extension cords: Move to another electrical outlet or circuit.

      Charles NorrisAug 14, 2025
      If your Invacare medical equipment has a continuous alarm and the concentrator isn't working while the power switch is on, it could be due to several reasons: * The unit might be overheating because of a blocked air intake. Remove and clean the cabinet filters and ensure the oxygen concentrator is at least three inches away from walls, draperies, or furniture. * There might be insufficient power at the outlet. Avoid using extension cords and try moving to another electrical outlet or circuit.

    What to do if Invacare Medical Equipment alarm beeps rapidly?
    • K
      klarsonAug 21, 2025
      If your Invacare medical equipment is alarming with rapid beeps, it often indicates a low flow issue. Here’s how to troubleshoot: * Check for any kinks or blockages in the tubing, cannula, or humidifier. If you find any, correct, clean, or replace the affected item. After doing so, turn the power off for 60 seconds and then turn it back on. * Also, verify that the flowmeter is set to the prescribed flowrate. If the prescribed flowrate is below 0.5 L/min, use the Pediatric Flowmeter IRCPF16 (Only with Platinum 5 and XL).
