5. Insert the quick disconnect element on the mask or cannula into an open
port (6) on the regulator head. Oxygen will not flow until the fitting on the
breathing devices are securely connected. The oxygen flow will stop when
the cannula or mask is disconnected from the port. It does not matter
whether one, two, three or four cannula are connected because only those
connected will dispense oxygen.
6. If you are using the Oxysaver
rate indicated by your altitude on the flowmeter. Note – if you are wearing
cannulas, the flow indicator ball should be read using the lower (left) scale.
If you are using a mask, the flow indicator ball should be read using the
upper scale.
A cannula (either a pendent or a mustache style) can be used only
NOTE:
up to 18,000 ft. Above 18,000 ft., you must switch over to a mask.
The FAA recommends that supplemental oxygen be used at altitudes
above 10,000 ft. MSL [5,000 ft. at night]. Recommended flow rates are
approximations due to individual variation. Since each outlet of your
system is adjustable, each user can increase or decrease flow
according to need. Be aware that flow rates are based on averages -
older people, smokers, sedentary people and those in poor health may
require more than the recommended amount of oxygen.
