Description
Key Features
- Flow Rate: Adjustable 1–10 LPM (continuous flow).
- Oxygen Purity: 90–96% (purity decreases slightly at maximum flow).
- PSA Technology: Pressure Swing Adsorption ensures efficient oxygen generation.
- Built-in Humidifier: Optional water bottle attachment to moisten oxygen (reduces dryness).
- Alarms: Audible/visual alerts for:
- Low oxygen purity (<82%).
- Power failure.
- Overheating or high pressure.
- Robust Design: Heavy-duty compressor for 24/7 operation.
- Portability: Equipped with wheels and handles for mobility within hospitals or homes.
- Noise Level: ≤ 55 dB (slightly louder than 5LPM models).
Technical Specifications

Applications
- Severe COPD/Emphysema: Patients needing high-flow oxygen therapy.
- Post-ICU Recovery: Critical care patients transitioning to home care.
- Pneumonia/COVID-19: Acute respiratory support during recovery.
- Palliative Care: Comfort for patients with advanced lung diseases.
- Hospital/Clinic Use: Emergency oxygen backup in medical facilities.
Safety & Maintenance
- Auto Shut-Off: Activates if oxygen purity drops or system overheats.
- Filter Maintenance:
- Pre-Filter: Clean weekly with water.
- Bacterial Filter: Replace every 3–6 months (due to high usage).
- Annual Servicing: Mandatory for sieve bed, compressor, and valve checks.
Setup & Usage
- Positioning: Place in a well-ventilated area, away from walls/furniture.
- Humidifier Setup (Optional): Attach water bottle with distilled water.
- Flow Adjustment: Set to the prescribed rate (e.g., 6–8 LPM for severe hypoxia).
- Delivery: Use a non-rebreather mask or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) for optimal delivery.
The Oxymed 10LPM Oxygen Concentrator is ideal for:
- Critical care patients needing high-flow oxygen therapy.
- Hospitals/clinics requiring reliable, heavy-duty equipment.
Home use for severe chronic respiratory conditions (under medical supervision).
