The Devilbiss 525DS Oxygen Concentrator is a lightweight, convenient home oxygen concentrator that can deliver up to 5 liters per minute (LPM) of continuous flow oxygen. The 525DS oxygen concentrator includes smooth flow wheel bearings and easy access handles on both the sides and top of the unit for easy movement. The device also comes with a built-in shelf for the humidifier bottle and an easy-to-read flow meter with a control dial.
The DeVilbiss 525DS is low maintenance and can be used by anyone. The air filter and connector should be cleaned at least once a week. Clean the concentrator exterior cabinet weekly by using a damp cloth and then wiping dry. In addition to the concentrator, clean and replace the cannula/mask, tubing, and humidifier bottle according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The DeVilbiss 525DS provides a quiet operation compared to many other oxygen concentrators, so you can conduct oxygen therapy while watching TV or having a conversation with friends. At only 48 dBa, this oxygen concentrator can be used without disrupting your day, thus making oxygen therapy more tolerable and more peaceful.
The DeVilbiss 525DS provides continuous flow settings up to 5 liters of oxygen per minute (LPM). Continuous flow oxygen delivers flow without interruption from the cannula and only stops when the concentrator is turned off. This continuous flow feature ensures the same amount of oxygen through the cannula regardless of the patients' breathing patterns. Therefore, this type of oxygen delivery allows the flow rate to be measured at a constant volume.
Oxygen purity is very important for maintaining healthy oxygen therapy. Medical grade oxygen for an oxygen concentrator should be no less than 90.0% and no more than 96.0%. It’s also important to consider your altitude level when looking at ideal oxygen saturation levels. Therefore, the DeVilbiss 525DS provides 87% - 96% at all flow rates.
The easy-to-use control panel is ideal for anyone who is not tech-savvy, including older individuals or someone just beginning oxygen therapy for the first time. Intuitive alerts also keep users up to date on operations. Moreover, with minimized complex controls and a streamlined design, the DeVilbiss 525DS can provide a frustration-free performance.
The minimal design features of the DeVilbiss 525DS compared to other oxygen concentrators provide a compact, lightweight unit that can be easily moved from room to room. Therefore, people who live active lifestyles can still go about their days doing their normal activities around the house.
