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
Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss equipment provider should you have any questions.
WARNING
For your safety, the oxygen concentrator must be used according to the prescription
determined by your physician.
DANGER
Oxygen causes rapid burning. Do not smoke while your oxygen concentrator is operating, or when you are near a person utilizing oxygen therapy. Do not use within 5
feet (1.6m) of hot, sparking objects or naked sources of flame.
Why Your Physician Prescribed Supplemental Oxygen
Today, many people suffer from heart, lung, and other respiratory diseases. Many of these people can benefit from supplemental oxygen therapy. Your body requires a steady supply of oxy-
en to function properly. Your physician prescribed supplemental oxygen for you because you
g
are not getting enough oxygen from room air alone. Supplemental oxygen will increase the
ount of oxygen that your body receives.

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.

How Your DeVilbiss Oxygen Concentrator Works
Oxygen concentrators are the most reliable, efficient, and convenient source of supplemental
. The oxygen concentrator is electrically operated. The unit separates

oxygen from room air which allows high-purity supplemental oxygen to be delivered to you
ough the oxygen outlet. Although the concentrator filters the oxygen in a room, it will not

Operation
SETTING UP YOUR OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
1. Position your unit near an electrical outlet in the room where you spend most of your
time.
DANGER
Keep the oxygen concentrator at least 5 feet (1.6 m) from hot, sparking objects or
naked sources of flame.
NNOOTTEE––
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 flow 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 filter (located on the back
of your unit) is clean. Proper cleaning of this filter is discussed in the
Concentrator
2. Attach the appropriate oxygen accessories to the oxygen outlet.
OOxxyyggeenn TTuubbiinngg CCoonnnneeccttiioonn:
a. Thread the oxygen outlet connector onto the oxygen outlet.
b. Attach the oxygen tubing directly to the connector (
OOxxyyggeenn TTuubbiinngg CCoonnnneeccttiioonn WWiitthh HHuummiiddiiffiiccaattiioonn:
If your physician has prescribed an oxygen humidifier as part of your therapy,
follow these steps:
a. Fill the humidifier bottle with distilled water. Do not overfill. (If using a prefill, go
to letter b.)
b. Thread the wing nut located on the top of the humidifier bottle to the oxygen out-
let so that it is suspended (
c. Attach the oxygen tubing directly to the humidifier bottle outlet fitting (
3. Your physician has prescribed either a nasal cannula, catheter, 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.
NNOOTTEE––
(only 115 volt units) The plug on the DeVilbiss oxygen concentrator has one blade
der than the other. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit

DEVILBISS OXYGEN CONCENTRATORS WITH OSD ONLY
The OSD (Oxygen Sensing Device) is a device within your concentrator that monitors the oxygen produced by your unit. When the unit is turned “On,” all four lights (Power, Service
Required, Low Oxygen, and Normal Oxygen) on the front panel will illuminate briefly. After a
few seconds, only the Power and Normal Oxygen lights will remain lit.
The OSD lights on the front panel are defined as follows:
• Green Normal Oxygen light–acceptable oxygen level.
• Yellow Low Oxygen light– below an acceptable oxygen level.
If the oxygen purity falls below the acceptable level, the green Normal Oxygen light will shut
off and the yellow Low Oxygen light will illuminate. Switch to your reserve oxygen system.
Refer to the Minor OSD Troubleshooting section in this guide on page 8 and contact your
Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider.
As an added safety feature should the oxygen purity continue to drop, an intermittent audible
signal will sound. Contact your Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider immediately. Do not
attempt any other maintenance.
NNOOTTEE––
If the Service Required light illuminates and the audible signal alarms but the unit is
not operating, there is no power to the unit. Refer to the
on page 8 and contact your Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider if necessary.
NNOOTTEE––
If an audible low-frequency vibration sound is detected, the unit is not operating
properly. Refer to the
Medical/DeVilbiss provider if necessary.
2. Check the flow meter to make sure that the flow meter ball is centered on the line next
to the prescribed number of your flow rate.

It is very important to follow your oxygen prescription. Do not increase or
decrease the flow of oxygen– consult your physician.
Your Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider may have preset the flow meter so that it can
not be adjusted.
If the flow meter knob is turned clockwise, the flow decreases (and eventually will
shut off the oxygen flow). If the knob is turned counterclockwise, the flow increases.
The low-flow alarm will activate if the flow meter ball is set below 0.3 lpm. The unit
will continue to run; however, the Service Required light will come on accompanied by
an audible alarm. Adjust the flow meter to your prescribed flow.

RESERVE OXYGEN SYSTEM
As a precaution, your Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider may supply you with a reserve oxygen system. If your unit loses electrical power or fails to operate correctly, the Patient Alert
System will sound to signal you to switch to your reserve oxygen system (if provided) and
contact your Sunrise Medical/DeVilbiss provider.
