FreeStyle Comfort

Description of Operation

The air we breathe contains approximately 21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen, and 1% other gasses. In the
FreeStyle Comfort, room air is drawn into the machine through the air intakes. It then passes through
an adsorbent material called molecular sieve. This material separates the oxygen from the nitrogen and
allows only the oxygen to pass through. The result is a flow of high-concentration oxygen delivered to
the user.
The FreeStyle Comfort combines advanced oxygen concentrator and oxygen conserving technologies
to create a portable device that allows for maximum portability and ambulation. The advanced pulse
flow delivery quickly senses when the user breathes in and delivers a pulse of oxygen at the beginning
of each inhalation. Pulse flow delivery is ideal for activities and time away from home. It conserves
oxygen and extends battery life as opposed to continuous flow. The FreeStyle Comfort is lightweight
enough to be carried via the handle, shoulder strap, or backpack. It can be operated on AC, DC (vehicle)
or battery power.
