Description

Oxygen Concentrator An oxygen concentrator is a medical device that separates nitrogen from the air around you so you can breathe up to 95% pure oxygen. You may need an oxygen concentrator if you have a condition that affects your breathing. Some oxygen concentrators are stationary and run on electricity. Oxygen concentrators takes air from your surroundings, extract oxygen and filter it into purified oxygen for you to breathe. Oxygen can be drying to your nose so some patients use a humidifier bottle that can be attached to your home unit to help moisten the oxygen you inhale. Which is better, a 5 litre or 10 litre oxygen concentrator? While the 5L concentrator is suitable for mild symptoms and basic needs, opting for the 10L concentrator is recommended for better efficiency. The 10L concentrator provides a higher flow rate of oxygen per minute, ensuring an ample supply for patients with more significant oxygen needs.
