Filters

Air enters the NewLife Elite unit through an air intake gross particle filter located on the
back off the oxygen concentrator. This filter removes dust particles and other large particles from
the air. Before you operate the NewLife Elite unit, make sure this filter is clean and positioned
correctly (Figure 4).
The supplemental oxygen produced by the NewLife Elite unit receives additional filtration
from a product filter located within the oxygen concentrator. Your Equipment Provider performs
maintenance on the product filter in addition to other maintenance on the unit.
The use of some oxygen administration accessories not specified for use
with this oxygen concentrator may impair its performance.
