INTRODUCTION
This instruction guide will acquaint you with the DeVilbiss oxygen concentrator. Make sure that you read and understand this guide before operating your unit. Important
safeguards are indicated throughout this guide; pay special attention to all safety information. Contact your DeVilbiss equipment provider should you have any questions.
Why Your Physician Prescribed Supplemental Oxygen
Today, many people suffer from heart, lung, and other respiratory diseases. Many of these people can benet from supplemental oxygen therapy. Your body requires a steady
supply of oxygen to function properly. Your physician prescribed supplemental oxygen for you because you are not getting enough oxygen from room air alone. Supplemental
oxygen will increase the amount of oxygen that your body receives.
Supplemental oxygen is not addictive. Your physician prescribed a specic oxygen ow to improve symptoms such as headaches, drowsiness, confusion, fatigue, or increased
irritability. If these symptoms persist after you begin your supplemental oxygen program, consult your physician.
The oxygen delivery setting has to be determined for each patient individually with the conguration of the equipment to be used, including accessories.
The proper placement and positioning of the prongs of the nasal cannula in the nose is critical to the amount of oxygen delivered to the respiratory system of the patient.
Your Delivery settings of the oxygen concentrator should be periodically reassessed for the effectiveness of therapy.
How Your DeVilbiss Oxygen Concentrator Works
Oxygen concentrators are the most reliable, efcient, and convenient source of supplemental oxygen available today. The oxygen concentrator is electrically operated. The unit
separates oxygen from room air which allows high-purity supplemental oxygen to be delivered to you through the oxygen outlet. Although the concentrator lters the oxygen in
a room, it will not affect the normal amount of oxygen in your room.

NOTE– A maximum of 50 feet (15 meters) of crush-proof oxygen tubing plus 7 feet (2.1 meters) of cannula plus a bubble humidier is allowed between the concentrator and
the patient.
NOTE– The oxygen supply accessory (patient tubing) shall be equipped with a means that in case of re stops the delivery of
oxygen to the patient. This means of protection should be located as close to the patient as practicable.
SETTING UP YOUR OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
1. Position your unit near an electrical outlet in the room where you spend most of your time.
WARNING
Oxygen causes rapid burning. Do not smoke while your oxygen concentrator is operating, or when you are near a person utilizing
oxygen therapy. Keep the oxygen concentrator and cannula at least 2 m (6.5 feet) from hot, sparking objects or naked sources of
ame.
NOTE– Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch. No other appliances should be plugged into the wall outlet.
2. Position your unit at least 6 inches (16 cm) from walls, draperies, or any other objects that might prevent the proper ow of air in and
out of your oxygen concentrator. The oxygen concentrator should be located so as to avoid pollutants or fumes.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
1. Before operating your unit, always check to be sure the air lter (located on the back of your unit) is clean. Proper cleaning of this lter
is discussed in the Caring For Your Concentrator section on page 6.
2. Attach the appropriate oxygen accessories to the oxygen outlet.
Oxygen Tubing Connection:
a. Thread the oxygen outlet connector onto the oxygen outlet.
b. Attach the oxygen tubing directly to the connector (Figure 1).
Oxygen Tubing Connection With Humidication:
If your physician has prescribed an oxygen humidier as part of your therapy, follow these steps (If using a prell, go to step b.):
a. Fill the humidier bottle with distilled water. Do not overll.
b. Thread the wing nut located on the top of the humidier bottle to the oxygen outlet so that it is suspended (Figure 2). Make sure it
is securely tightened.
c. Attach the oxygen tubing directly to the humidier bottle outlet tting (Figure 3).
3. Your physician has prescribed either a nasal cannula or face mask. In most cases, they are already attached to the oxygen tubing. If
not, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for attachment.
4. Remove the power cord completely from the line cord strap. Make sure the power switch is in the “Off” position, and insert the plug into
the wall outlet. The unit is double insulated to guard against electric shock.
NOTE– (only 115 volt units) The plug on the DeVilbiss oxygen concentrator has one blade wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to t in a wall outlet only one way. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
WARNING
Improper use of the power cord and plugs can cause a burn, re, or other electric shock hazards. Do not use the unit if the power
cord is damaged.
OPERATING YOUR DEVILBISS OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
WARNING
Oxygen causes rapid burning. Do not smoke while your oxygen concentrator is operating, or when you are near a person utilizing oxygen therapy. Keep the
oxygen concentrator and cannula at least 2 m (6.5 feet) from hot, sparking objects or naked sources of ame.
The DeVilbiss oxygen concentrators manufactured since July 1, 2012 are equipped with a re mitigating outlet tting that
