To clean the filter on a 3B Medical Stratus 5 unit:

1. Unplug the device before cleaning.
2. Remove the air intake cover on the left side of the unit.
3. Take out the sponge mesh filter.
4. Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water.
5. Allow the filter to air dry completely.
6. Once dry, replace the filter and reattach the air intake cover.

Tip: Having a second filter allows for quicker replacement while the first one dries.

Do not use the filter if it is wet or damaged; replace it immediately. Clean the filter weekly, or more often if needed.

How do you get it to continuously give oxygen and not do the bursts of air making a hissing like sound every few seconds?

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
May 19, 2025

The 3B Medical Stratus 5 provides continuous flow oxygen by default and does not have a burst or pulse setting. It delivers a steady flow of oxygen based on the flow rate set on the flow meter. To adjust the flow, use the oxygen flow meter to set the prescribed liters per minute (LPM).

Low alarms beep after 5 minutes, even if O2 flow is increased have tried with and without humidity. Alarm continues to beep. Any suggestions.

The low alarms on the 3B Medical Stratus 5 could be caused by:

1. Low oxygen purity (less than 82%) — indicated by a red LED and continuous audible alarm.
2. Low flow rate — even if oxygen flow is increased, the output may still be too low due to a kinked cannula, blocked outlet, or loose humidifier cap.
3. Sensor failure — NTC temperature sensor error can trigger alarms.
4. Power supply issues — voltage below 85% of rated can cause malfunction.

Check for obstructions, tighten connections, and verify oxygen purity and power supply.

Low alarm comes on after 5 minutes and stays on even if O3 flow is increased.

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
April 15, 2025

The low alarm on a 3B Medical Stratus 5 could activate after 5 minutes, even when the O3 flow is increased, due to low oxygen output flow. This may be caused by:

- Blockage or restriction in the tubing or flow path
- Oxygen purity falling below 82%
- Sensor errors or malfunction
- High temperature or pressure abnormalities

Adjusting the flow-meter or checking for blockages may help. If the issue persists, contact a healthcare professional.

A low alarm beeping after 5 minutes on the 3B Medical Stratus 5 may indicate high temperature rise, high or low pressure, temperature sensor error, low flow, or low oxygen purity. The alarm is typically accompanied by a red or yellow LED and a sound level of 60–80 dB.
