6.1 Introduction

Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use
indoors. It is an electronically operated device that separates
oxygen from room air. It provides high concentration of
oxygen directly to you through a nasal cannula. Clinical
studies have documented that oxygen concentrators are
therapeutically equivalent to other types of oxygen delivery
systems.
Your supplier will show you how to use your oxygen
concentrator. He/She should be contacted with any
questions or problems regarding your oxygen concentrator.
This user manual will tell you about your concentrator and
will serve as a reference as you use your concentrator.
