Portable Oxygen Concentrator
A portable oxygen concentrator is a device that allows you to get oxygen from the air. The purity of such oxygen reaches 95 percent. This device uses the technology of Preserve Swing Absorption (PSA). Translated into Russian is a heatless adsorption of a short cycle. Portable oxygen concentrator is often used in medicine, as it allows you to easily get medical oxygen wherever it is needed. The device is supplied with capacious batteries, allowing the concentrator to function from forty minutes to eight hours, while not tied to the power network. Also, portable oxygen concentrators are characterized by low mass and very low noise. A small weight and quiet operation are also those parameters that allow the use of an oxygen concentrator in medicine:
- In operating
- In ambulances
- In intensive care and intensive care units
- In therapeutic rooms
- In maternity hospitals and hospitals for children
- In the physiotherapy room
- In holiday homes and also dispensaries
- On harmful production and rescue service units
Basically, in such a device, patients who are in serious condition and with great difficulty in respiratory function need to be transported for a certain, long enough period of time. Also, an oxygen concentrator is necessary for those patients who are prescribed walks or need periodic movements, trips, and also to working, physically active patients observing bed rest. This device is also useful for people who are carrying sports load during the recovery stage.
Externally, the hub looks like a bag. Oxygen concentrators are allowed to take in the aircraft cabin in accordance with the rules of most airlines.
The basic advantages of a portable kilo-concentrator
The oxygen concentration and oxygen flow are not inferior to stationary oxygen concentrators in their characteristics.
Autonomous operation of the device from the batteries is quite long - eight hours without recharging. This allows you to carry out many important operations and therapeutic procedures.
How Portable Kilow Concentrator Works
During the exhalation of the patient, the device accumulates the amount of oxygen necessary for inspiration in the inner reservoir, and at the moment of inspiration, the stored oxygen enters the airway of the patient under the influence of pneumatic valves.
