CAIRE offers the OxySafe™ as an optional acces-
sory. This is intended to be used in conjunction
with the Companion 5 concentrator.
The OxySafe™ is a thermal fuse to stop the flow of
gas in the event that the downstream cannula or
oxygen tubing is ignited and burns to the OxySafe.
It is placed in-line with the nasal cannula or
oxygen tubing between the patient and the oxygen
outlet of the Companion 5.
For proper use of the OxySafe, always refer to the
manufacturer's instructions (included with each
OxySafe kit).
CAIRE offers an OxySafe™ kit that includes a
cannula headpiece, OxySafe™, and 7' tubing: PN
