INTRODUCTION
Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use in the home. 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 owners manual will tell you about your
concentrator and will serve as a reference as you use your concentrator.
