3.3 Starting the Concentrator
NO SMOKING signs must be prominently displayed in the home
or wherever unit is in use. Patients and their contacts should be
informed about the dangers of smoking in the presence of
medical oxygen.
Do not use extension cords with this unit or connect too many
plugs into the same electrical outlet. This can result in an
overload to the electrical panel causing the breaker/fuse to
activate.
Position the unit away from curtains or drapes, hot air registers or
heaters. Be certain to place the unit on a flat surface and make
sure all sides are at least 1 foot (30 cm) away from a wall or
other obstruction. Do not place the unit in a confined area.
Choose a dust and smoke free-location away from direct
sunlight. Do not operate the unit outdoors.
1. Locate the unit near the electrical outlet in the room where you spend
most of your time.
2. Insert the power cord plug into the electrical outlet.
3. Set the I/0 power switch to the “I” position to turn the unit on. An audible
alarm will loudly sound for approximately 5 seconds.
4. The low oxygen concentration indicator remains on for a few minutes
and until the oxygen concentration reaches minimum concentration
requirements, (only pertains to unit equipped with an Oxygen Monitor)
5. To set the flow of supplemental oxygen, turn the flowmeter adjustment
knob left or right until the ball inside the flowmeter centers on the flow
line number prescribed by your physician. To view the flowmeter at the
proper angle, note that the back line and the front number line must give
appearance of one line.
6. The concentrator is now ready for use.
