4 OPERATION AND INSTALLATION
Preparing the Concentrator
(refer to above picture)
1. Unscrew the humidier bottle cover, if so equipped (humidier bottle is optional).
2. Fill the humidier bottle with puried water (or distilled water) between the maximum and minimum water
level lines. If needed, add medication to the water, as
prescribed by physician.
3. Screw the cover back on the humidier bottle.
4. Screw the humidier bottle adapter into the humidier
bottle cover.
5. Insert the humidier bottle into the elastic belt on the
left side of the unit.
6. Connect the other end of the oxygen hose to the oxygen
outlet.
7. Ensure that the power switch is off; plug the concen-
11John Bunn O2 Premier Oxygen Concentrator
trator’s AC connector into a properly grounded power
outlet.
Turning the Concentrator On
1. Press the power switch to start the concentrator. There
will be a brief delay before the concentrator starts. The
alarm system emits a tone of one second duration, the
word HELLO appears on the hour meter LED panel, and
the green power indicator light illuminates.
ATTENTION: Every time the concentrator starts, the alarm
system performs a self test, and emits a brief tone. If
the alarm does anything other than emit a brief tone,
see Section 6, Troubleshooting Guide, and follow the
appropriate steps.
2. Turn the owmeter knob to the setting prescribed by
your physician or therapist.
Note: To properly read the flowmeter, locate the prescribed
flowrate line on the flowmeter.
3. Turn the owmeter knob until the owmeter ball rises
to the appropriate line.
4. Center the owmeter ball on the L/min line prescribed.
Damage: If the flowrate on the flowmeter ever falls below
s
0.5L/min, check tubing or accessories for blocked or
kinked tubing or for a defective humidifier bottle.
If using a humidier bottle, the oxygen comes from the
humidier bottle outlet.
5. Connect the oxygen tubing barb connector securely to
the humidier outlet; the other end of the oxygen tubing is used by the patient.
Note: Oxygenation times and the flowrate ranges are
established and prescribed by your physician.
Turning the Concentrator Off
Turn off the power switch and unplug the concentrator’s
AC connector from the power outlet.
12 John Bunn O2 Premier Oxygen Concentrator
5 MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Cabinet
Clean the cabinet at least once a month.
1. Turn off the power switch.
2. Clean the cabinet with a mild household cleaner and a
non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Do not spill liquid inside
the cabinet.
Cleaning or Replacing the Filters (3 Types)
Clean or replace the lters as often as specied in the
following paragraphs in order to protect the compressor
and extend the concentrator’s life. Replacement lters are
available from your Graham-Field equipment provider.
Bottom filter
The bottom lter does not typically require cleaning, but
it may if operated in extremely dirty conditions. Perform a
visual inspection of the bottom lter every 2 weeks; if the
lter is dirty, clean it. The bottom lter is located at the
bottom rear of the cabinet (see Figure 1). To clean:
1. Remove the bottom lter
from the squares carefully
with your ngers.
2. Inspect the lter; if any part
of it is cracked or broken,
replace it instead of cleaning it.
3. If cleaning, rinse lter well
with clear water until all dirt is removed.
4. Dry lter by squeezing between two absorbent towels.
Wait for filter to dry. When dry, install lter carefully as
shown in Figure 1.
Damage: Do not operate the concentrator without the
s
filters installed, or while filters are wet. These actions
could permanently damage the concentrator.
13John Bunn O2 Premier Oxygen Concentrator
Side filters
Note: For earlier models only, you will need a small blade
screwdriver to open the side filter access door. For later
models, the filter grill simply pulls out. If this operation
is too difficult for you to perform, please contact your
equipment provider to perform this for you.
Clean the side lters weekly. There are two side lters, one
located on each side of the concentrator cabinet. Perform
the following steps on both side lters.
1. Turn off the power switch and unplug the concentrator’s AC connector from the power outlet.
2. For earlier models, use a
small blade screwdriver
to open the air intake access door; for later models, open the lter grill
(see Figure 2).
3. Remove the side lter
carefully with your ngers.
4. Inspect the lter; if any
part of it is cracked or broken, replace it instead of
cleaning it.
5. If cleaning, rinse lter well with clear water until all dirt
is removed.
6. To dry lter, squeeze it carefully between two absorbent towels . Wait for filter to dry before installing it in concentrator. When dry, install lter carefully as
shown in Figure 2.
Damage: Do not operate the concentrator without the
s
filters installed, or while filters are wet. These actions
could permanently damage the concentrator.
Damage: Please note that the side filters may require
s
cleaning more often, especially if the concentrator is
operated where the following conditions exist:
14 John Bunn O2 Premier Oxygen Concentrator
• A wood stove is used
• Kerosene or oil is used
• Pets are present
• Tobacco is used
Intake filter
Note: Please have your Graham-Field equipment provider
replace the intake filter. This operation requires
opening the intake filter access door.
Replace, do not clean, the intake lter annually (or more
often, if the intake lter turns black). The frequency of replacement depends on usage and condition of the environment where the concentrator is used.
Cleaning the Optional Humidier Bottle
Change the water in the humidier bottle every day. Wash
the humidier bottle weekly with warm soapy water, rinse
with a solution of 1 part vinegar to 10 parts water, and
rinse thoroughly with hot water before relling.
Replacing the Battery
Note: Please have your Graham-Field equipment provider
replace the battery. This operation requires opening
the battery access door.
Note This device uses a 9V battery. If the concentrator will
not be used for an extended period, please have your
Graham-Field equipment provider remove the battery.
When the battery becomes weak, the alarm will sound.
Have your Graham-Field equipment provider change the
battery immediately.
ATTENTION: Without the battery, the alarm will not work.
ALWAYS change the battery when necessary.
