properly. Yourphysician has prescribed supplemental oxygen therapy because your body is not able to get enough

FREESTYLE PORTABLE OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR

What Is the FreeStyle Portable Oxygen Concentrator?

Oxygenconcentrators were introduced in themid-1970sandhavebecome the most convenient, reliablesourceof

supplementaloxygen available today.Oxygenconcentratorsare the cost-effective,efficient,and safe alternativeto

usinghigh-pressure oxygen cylinders orliquidoxygen. Anoxygen concentrator provides all theoxygenyou need

withno cylinderorbottle deliveriesrequired.

Theair we breathe contains approximately 21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen,and1%othergases.In the FreeStyle unit,

roomairpasses through a regenerative, adsorbent material called "molecular sieve." This materialseparatesthe

oxygenfrom thenitrogen.The resultisa flowofhigh concentrationoxygendelivered tothepatient.

Thesize and weight of traditionaloxygenconcentratorshave limited their portability.Apersonwho needs oxygen

awayfrom home or a hospital has used high-pressure oxygencylindersand/orliquidoxygen.Oxygen conserving

devices(OCDs) have been used to increase the length oftimethatcylinderslast.OCDs deliver oxygen only at the

beginningofinhalation,whenoxygenis mostbeneficial. Using thistechnique, OCDsconserveoxygen.

combinationenablesasignificantreductioninthesizeoftheoxygen concentratorandmakesFreeStyleultra-portable.

Atypical oxygen concentrator weighs more than 50pounds.Incontrast,your FreeStyle concentrator weighs only

4.4lbs (2kg).

FreeStyledelivers aflowofoxygen uptoan equivalent flowof3 LPM (litersperminute) in thislightweightpackage

thatcanbe easily carried and used away from home.

FreeStyleoperates from four different power sources. (RefertothePower Supplies section of this manual.)
