OPERATING PRINCIPALS

This device works by separating oxygen from air using a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process. Normal air consists of 21% oxygen; this device increases the amount of oxygen up to 96% by removing the nitrogen and concentrating the output of oxygen. To accomplish this, air is pulled into the device through a small air compressor, nitrogen is separated from the oxygen and finally, the oxygen is collected and delivered to the patient on each breath.

Because the oxygen you breathe comes from your immediate environment, it is very important to keep your device clean. Although there are many filters built into the device, exposing your device to dirty and dusty environments will reduce the life of the filters causing them to need to be replaced more often.

The device maintains the following as essential performance requirements without the need for recurrent testing:

1. Alarm condition when the delivery of oxygen, in both normal and single fault conditions, is not within the performance levels as indicated in this manual.
2. Technical alarm condition when there is a power supply failure.
3. Technical alarm condition when the battery nears depletion.
4. Technical alarm condition when the oxygen concentration is below 82% volume fraction.
5. Malfunction technical alarm condition.
6. The delivery of an oxygen dose, in normal condition or an indication of abnormal operation.

PREPARING YOUR CONCENTRATOR FOR USE

Make sure you have a backup oxygen supply in addition to this portable oxygen concentrator.

What is your back up oxygen supply?
DO NOT USE with a humidifier, nebulizer, CPAP or in series or parallel with any other device. DO NOT USE near flames, smoke or anything flammable
DO NOT USE near pollutants, smoke, fumes, flammable anesthetics, cleaning agents or chemical vapors.
DO NOT USE in environments where your concentrator could become submerged in water.
DO NOT USE near oil, grease or petroleum-based products.

1. Ensure your concentrator is in a well-ventilated location

   • Always operate in an upright position.
   • Ensure particle filters are in place on both sides of the device.
   • Ensure you are in a location where you can hear and/or see any alarms that may occur.
     
2. Install the Battery
   
   Using the wrong cords can lead to a fire. Only use compatible cords from the manufacturer.
   A battery should always be installed on the device for power back up and to allow the battery to charge when the concentrator is plugged into external power. To install a battery:
   • Align the battery with the bottom housing of the device.
   • Slide the battery into place until you hear an audible click, and the latch has returned to the upper position.
   • You will hear a single beep and you will see the indicator lights and display light up briefly before shutting off. This means the battery has been successfully connected to your concentrator.
     
     DO NOT use a battery other than those specified in this manual.
3. Connect the Power Supply:
   1. Connect the AC power brick to the power supply cable and plug the power supply cable into a standard wall outlet.
      
   2. Connect the power supply output plug to the concentrator by inserting it into the power port located at the front of the concentrator.
      
   3. You will hear a single beep and you will see the indicator lights and display screen light up briefly before shutting off. This means the power supply has successfully been connected to your concentrator.
      DO NOT use a power supply other than those specified in this manual.
      DO NOT use power cables, or accessories other than those specified in this manual.

4. Connect an appropriate cannula to your concentrator
   
   • Using a single lumen cannula up to 7,62 meters (25 feet) in length is recommended. This ensures proper breath detection and oxygen delivery.
     
     Consult your physician if additional titration may be needed to ensure proper oxygen delivery when using a particular cannula.
     DO NOT lubricate fittings, connections, tubing, or other accessories of your concentrator.
   • Connect the nasal cannula tubing by inserting it onto the metal cannula barb on the top of the device.
   • Replace your cannula routinely to avoid contamination or poor cannula performance. See 'Cannula Replacement' (section CANNULA REPLACEMENT) for more details.

USING YOUR CONCENTRATOR

1. Turn on your concentrator by pressing the ON/OFF button
   
   • Press and hold the Power button until you hear a single short beep.
   • The display will light up and the Inogen logo will appear on the display.
     
     If the display light immediately turns off after the Inogen logo appears, you have not held the power button long enough. Retry by pressing and holding the power button down longer, until you hear a single short beep.
   • The 'please wait' icon () will appear while the concentrator powers up.
   • The display will indicate the current flow setting and power condition.
   • Following a brief start-up sequence, a warmup period up to 2 minutes will initiate. During this time-period the oxygen concentration is building to but may not have reached specification. Additional warm up time may be needed if your device has been stored in extremely cold temperatures.
2. Check your concentrator's battery level
   • Once your concentrator has started up fully, the display light will turn off.
   • At this time, you will see a battery percentage appear on the screen where the 'please wait' icon () was previously.
   • If the battery is low, connect your concentrator to an external power supply, as described in PREPARING YOUR CONCENTRATOR FOR USEstep 3 or switch it out for a fully charged battery.
   • If the battery has been removed, go back to PREPARING YOUR CONCENTRATOR FOR USE, step 2, "Install the Battery" for steps to re-install the battery.
3. Set your concentrator's flow setting
   • Set the flow setting as prescribed by your physician or clinician.
   • Use the + or – setting buttons to adjust to the desired setting.
     
   • The current setting can be viewed on the display next to the settings symbol .
     
     It is normal to hear a difference in sound as you change the flow setting.
     Set your concentrator to flow settings prescribed by your doctor. The flow rate is prescribed by your physician; it is a "dose" of oxygen. Too high or too low a rate may eventually lead to harm.
4. Use your concentrator
   • Position the nasal cannula below your nose with the small tubes directed upward into your nose and loop the tubing snuggly around your ears per the cannula manufacturer's instructions.
     
   • Breathe through your nose. Your concentrator will sense the onset of inhalation and deliver a burst of oxygen at a precise time when you inhale. The device will sense each breath and continue to deliver oxygen in this manner. As your breathing rate changes, it will sense these changes and deliver oxygen as you need it.
   • A green light will flash each time a breath is detected.
     Continue to make certain the nasal cannula is properly aligned on your face and you are breathing through your nose.
     DO NOT use your concentrator if you feel ill or uncomfortable.
     DO NOT use your concentrator if the concentrator does not signal an oxygen pulse.
     DO NOT use your concentrator if you are unable to hear and/or feel the oxygen pulse.
     DO NOT use your concentrator if you cannot hear the audible alarms.
     DO NOT allow smoking or open flames within 6.56 ft / 2 m of your concentrator.
     DO NOT actively smoke while using your concentrator.
   • If you smoke, you must always turn your concentrator off, remove the cannula, and leave the room where either the cannula or your concentrator are located. If unable to leave the room, you must wait 10 minutes after the flow of oxygen has been stopped.
     DO NOT leave the nasal cannula on bed coverings or chair cushions when POC is turned on but not in use.
     
     For maintenance of the cannula, refer to the cannula manufacturer's instructions or follow the advice of your healthcare professional. If you inhale very quickly between breaths, the device may ignore one of the breaths, giving the appearance of a missed breath. This is normal, as the device senses and monitors the changes in your breathing pattern. The device will normally sense the next breath and deliver oxygen accordingly.
5. Carry Accessories Carry Bag:
   • To use the Carry Bag (CA-500) if desired, attach a battery. Insert the device into the Carry Bag through the bottom zippered opening with the cannula barb facing up on the right front side.
   • Zip up the bottom flap Vent
     
     
     Make sure both intake vents are visible through the open mesh panels on the sides of the bag and that the exhaust vent is visible from the open mesh panel on the front of the bag.

The device is operating from an external power source with no battery present.

When starting to charge a fully drained battery, the charging process may start and stop during the first few minutes. This is normal.

Leaving your device plugged in past the full charge time will not harm the device or the battery. If using multiple batteries, make sure that each battery is labeled (1, 2, 3 or A, B, C, etc.) and rotate on a regular basis.

BATTERY LIFETIME AND CARE

The device's batteries are designed to last 500 charge/discharge cycles.

Always keep liquids away from batteries. If batteries become wet, discontinue use immediately and dispose of battery properly.
To extend the run-time of your battery, avoid running in temperatures less than 5˚C (41˚F ) or higher than 35˚C (95˚F) for extended periods of time. Store battery in a cool, dry place. Store with a charge of 40-50%.

Batteries should be charged up to a full charge and discharged down to 0% at least once every 90 days to maintain maximum life.

NASAL CANNULA

The proper placement and positioning of the prongs of the nasal cannula in the nose is critical for oxygen to be delivered. Make sure the nasal cannula is properly connected to the nozzle fitting and that the tubing is not kinked or pinched in any way. Replace the nasal cannula on a regular basis.

Nasal cannula should be rated up to 6 liters per minute to ensure proper oxygen delivery. Note that cannulas may be rated in "liters per minute" even though your prescribed pulse dose setting number does not represent a constant flow in liters per minute.

A nasal cannula must be used with the device to provide oxygen from the concentrator. A single lumen cannula up to 7.62 meters (25 feet) in length is recommended to ensure proper breath detection and oxygen delivery.

Bring enough charged batteries with you to power your concentrator for no less than 150% of the expected duration of your flight, ground time before and after the flight, security screenings, connections and a conservative estimate for unanticipated delays. Note that per FAA regulations, all extra batteries are to be individually wrapped and protected to prevent short circuits and carried in carry-on baggage onboard aircraft only.

The AC Power Supply cannot be used to charge the device battery when onboard aircraft. If traveling by bus, train or boat, contact your carrier to find out about power port availability.

STORING YOUR CONCENTRATOR

Store your concentrator

• Remove the battery from the concentrator.
• Store concentrator, battery and power accessories in a cool, dry place.
• Store your battery with a charge of 40-50%.

DO NOT store in temperatures less than 5˚C (41˚F) or higher than 35˚C (95˚F) for extended periods of time.
DO NOT place objects on top of the concentrator or packaged concentrator.

RESPONDING TO ALARMS

If you are unable to hear or see alarms, do not have normal tactile sensitivity, or cannot communicate discomfort, consult your clinician before using this device.

Pressing the bell button will enable (turn on) and disable (turn off) the no-breath-detect alarm. When the audible no-breath-detect alarm is ON (because the concentrator has not detected a breath for 60 seconds, see ALARM INDICATORS & DEVICE ICON GLOSSARY Section: alarms for no-breath-detect alarm conditions), the concentrator will emit three beeps, repeated every 25 seconds and will have a flashing yellow light. When this alarm is triggered, the concentrator will begin to deliver pulses of oxygen at a rate of 20 boluses per minute. When the audible no-breath-detect alarm is OFF, the concentrator will respond the same way when no breath is detected for 60 seconds BUT the repeating 3 beeps will not be produced. Whether the no-breath-detect mode is on or off, it does not impact the alarm functionality of any other device alarms or notifications.

The alarm system is tested during the startup sequence. You should see all alarm lights briefly turn on and the audible alarm indicator chirp. If alarms are suspected of misoperating, contact your distributor for verification that alarms are working correctly.

INFORMATIONAL ICONS

The following displayed icons are not accompanied by any audible feedback or any visual change in the indicator lights.

ALARMS

The device monitors various parameters during operation and utilizes an intelligent alarm system to indicate a malfunction of the concentrator. Mathematical algorithms and time delays are used to reduce the probability of false alarms while still ensuring proper notification of an alarm condition. If multiple alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority alarm will be displayed. Note that failure to respond to the cause of an alarm condition potentially will result in discomfort or reversible minor injury only (e.g., reduced oxygen supply or a burn). In case of an alarm, seek to address the issue and/or switch to a backup source of oxygen.

Audible alarms are to warn the user of problems. To ensure that audible alarms may be heard, the maximum distance that the user can move away from it must be determined based on the surrounding noise level. Make sure the device is in a location where the alarms can be heard or seen if they occur.

The following section provides a listing and description of every possible alarm condition. The alarm system is intended to notify an operator while wearing the device in a shoulder bag or while the device is set down within range of an acceptable nasal cannula.

If the power plug is removed when a battery is connected, the alarms will work normally. If there is no battery or the device is not connected to AC or DC power, the alarms will not activate because there is no power. With the battery connected, a power loss lasting less than 30 seconds will have no effect on the alarm system.

If multiple alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority alarm will be displayed.

Failure to respond to the cause of an alarm will result in discomfort or reversible injury only (e.g. reduced oxygen supply or a burn). In case of an alarm, seek to address the issue and/or switch to a backup source of oxygen.

ALARM LOG

The device maintains a patient accessible alarm log that allows for the last alarm to be accessed and viewed on the LCD (except for the no-breath-detect, check cannula, battery low / attach plug and battery empty / attach plug alarms). The alarm log is retained in memory after the device experiences a total loss of power. To access the alarm log, ensure the concentrator is plugged and turned off. Then hold the plus (+) button for 5 seconds. Alternatively, the alarm log can be found in the Advanced Tab of the Inogen Connect App under Error Recall.

Once a new alarm is activated the new alarm overwrites the previous alarm. The alarm log is retained in memory after the device is powered down. The time elapsed since the error occurred is displayed with the last alarm on the alarm log. The device also maintains a service and repair alarm log that is not accessible by the patient.
