NewLife® Oxygen
Concentrator
This User Manual will acquaint you with the
NewLife Oxygen Concentrator (5-liter and 10-liter
models). Make sure you read and understand all the
information contained in this manual before you
operate your unit. Should you have any questions,
your Equipment Provider will be happy to answer
them for you.
What is the Oxygen
Concentrator
The air we breathe contains approximately 21%
oxygen, 78% nitrogen, and 1% other gasses. In the
NewLife oxygen concentrator, room air is drawn
into the machine through the air intakes. It then
passes through an adsorbent material called molecular sieve. This material separates the oxygen from
the nitrogen and allows only the oxygen to pass
through. The result is a ow of high-concentration
oxygen delivered to the user.
Note: There is never a danger of depleting the
oxygen in a room when you use your Oxygen
Concentrator unit.
Why Your Physician
Prescribed Oxygen
Many people suffer from a variety of heart, lung,
and other respiratory diseases. A signicant number
of these people can benet from supplemental
oxygen therapy at home, when traveling, or while
participating in daily activities away from home.
Oxygen is a gas that makes up 21% of the room air
we breathe. Our bodies depend on a steady supply
to function properly. Your physician prescribed a
ow or setting to address your particular respiratory
condition.
Although oxygen is a non-addictive drug, unauthorized oxygen therapy can be dangerous. You must
seek medical advice before you use this oxygen
concentrator. The Equipment Provider who supplies
your oxygen equipment will demonstrate how to set
the prescribed ow rate.
WEEE
This symbol is to remind the equipment owners to return it to a recycling
facility at the end of its life, per Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Directive.
Our products will comply with the
restriction of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS) directive. They will not contain more than trace amounts of lead
or other hazardous material content.

WARNING: “NO SMOKING – OXYGEN
IN USE” SIGNS MUST BE PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED IN THE HOME,
OR WHERE OXYGEN IS IN USE. USERS
AND THEIR CAREGIVERS MUST BE
INFORMED ABOUT THE DANGERS OF
SMOKING IN THE PRESENCE OF, OR
WHILE USING, MEDICAL OXYGEN.
CAUTION: The Manufacturer recommends an alternate source of
supplemental oxygen in the event
of a power outage, alarm condition,
or mechanical failure. Consult your
physician or Equipment Provider for
the type of reserve system required.
It is very important to select only the prescribed level of oxygen. Do not change the
flow selection unless you have been directed
to do so by a licensed clinician.
The Oxygen Concentrator may be used during
sleep under the recommendation of a licensed
clinician.
Operator Profile
Concentrators are intended to supply supplemental
oxygen to users suffering from discomfort due to
ailments which effect the efciency of one’s lungs
to transfer oxygen in the air to their bloodstream.
Stationary oxygen concentrators (SOCs) do not
store or contain oxygen. They do not need to be re-
lled, and can recharge anywhere AC or DC power.
Oxygen concentrator use requires a physician’s
prescription and is not intended for life support use.
Although oxygen therapy can be prescribed for
users of all ages, the typical oxygen therapy user
is older than 65 years of age and suffers from a
variety of respiratory diseases, including Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD). Users
typically have good cognitive abilities and must
be able to communicate discomfort. If the user is
unable to communicate discomfort, or unable to
read and understand the concentrator labeling and
instructions for use, then use is recommended only
under the supervision of one who can. If any discomfort is felt while using the concentrator, users
are advised to contact their healthcare provider.
Users are also advised to have back-up oxygen
available (i.e. cylinder oxygen) in the event of a
power outage or concentrator failure. There are
no other unique skills or user abilities required for
concentrator use.
Unpacking Your NewLife
Verify that all of the components listed and shown
below are included in the package. If any items are
missing, contact your oxygen provider immediately.
