Safety Features
The following information will acquaint you
with safety features of the NewLife Oxygen
Concentrator. Make sure you read and understand
all the information contained in this manual before
you operate your unit. Should you have any
questions, your Equipment Provider will be happy
to answer them for you.
• Compressor Motor: A
pressure relief valve is fitted
to the compressor outlet
and is calibrated to 360 kPa
(52 psig). Thermal safety is
ensured by a thermal safety
switch which will cause the
compressor to shut down
(65° C / 149° F).
• General Malfunction: If
any of the conditions listed
below occurs, the general
malfunction light (
illuminate and an audible
intermittent alarm will
activate. This includes:
• Obstruction to the flow of
oxygen such as a pinch
or kink in the delivery cannula, triggered by
high product tank pressure
Note: 10 LPM Single Flow Meter Only
• High device product tank pressure condition
of greater than 38 psig (±1)
• Low device product tank pressure condition
of less than 15 psig (±1)
• High device temperature of greater than
135° C (275° F), triggered by low product
tank pressure if the thermal switch located
within the compressor trips (shutting down
the compressor)
• Oxygen Monitor: In the event the oxygen monitor
detects an oxygen concentration below 82%, the
low oxygen concentration warning light (
will illuminate. If the low O2 condition persists,
an audible intermittent alarm will also activate.
• Power Failure: In the event the unit is operating
and a loss of power occurs, the power warning
light (
) will illuminate and an audible
intermittent alarm will activate.
• Product Filter: ≥ 10 μm filter
) will
Device warning label
and alarm display.
Note: New Life Elite and Dual Flow New Life
Intensity—Obstruction to the flow of oxygen such
as a pinch or kink in the delivery cannula will cause
the flow meter ball to drop to zero as an indicator
of no flow.
Oxygen Monitor
The oxygen monitor is a small electronic device
within the NewLife Oxygen Concentrator that
monitors the concentration of oxygen produced
by the unit. If oxygen concentration falls below
the acceptable therapeutic level, a yellow oxygen
monitor light on the Oxygen Concentrator turns on.
If the light remains on for more than 15 minutes, an
intermittent alarm sounds.
CAUTION: Contact your Equipment
Provider immediately if the yellow
oxygen monitor light remains on for
more than 15 minutes.
Note: When you turn the unit on, it is normal for the
yellow oxygen monitor light to turn on and remain
on for up to five minutes.
