The Inogen One G3 weighs about 5 lbs, which makes it perfect for traveling. For additional portability, the Inogen One G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator includes a carrying bag or backpack. 

Like the majority of oxygen concentrators, the G3 comes with a pulse dose for oxygen delivery. With the pulse dose delivery method, the oxygen concentrator provides oxygen only during inhalation. When it detects an exhale, oxygen delivery is paused. The G3 has five varied pulse dose settings that can be interchanged with the help of the flow control buttons on the oxygen concentrator. Consult with your physician if there is any need to change your oxygen delivery settings. 

The Inogen One G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator is among the lightest and most portable oxygen concentrators available. If you require additional battery life, then you can upgrade your battery to the 16-cell battery providing 9 hours of extra usage and adding less than 1lb of weight.

The 8-cell or upgraded 16-cell batteries can be recharged quickly for about 4 hours and 6 hours respectively. The Inogen One G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator has five varied settings for pulse oxygen flow to preserve both the time and energy between charges. 

Portable oxygen concentrators filter out room air to deliver a concentrated dose of oxygen to individuals. You do not need to worry about refilling oxygen tanks. Just simply switch on the oxygen concentrator and breathe.

To replace the battery, just slide the battery back into place until the latch clicks. 

Adaptive Response - Inogen One G3 Oxygen Concentrator

The Inogen One G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator features an adaptive response technology, which regulates oxygen delivery based on your breathing rate. The pulse dose setting of oxygen flow reduces with an increase in the rate of breathing, which ensures there is no unnecessary waste of oxygen during exhalation. While resting, you tend to inhale at a slower pace, so the pulse dose increases in response. 

The Inogen One G3 portable oxygen concentrator also has an Advanced Breath Mode. If it does not detect breathing within a minute, it will start providing automated oxygen pulses. After the unit has detected breath again, the concentrator will go back to its flow setting. The alarm of the Advanced Breath Mode detection can be turned off or on.  

Intelligent Delivery System - Inogen One G3 POC

This oxygen concentrator comes with an intelligent oxygen delivery system suitable to provide oxygen irrespective of whether the oxygen concentrator is active or not. The traditional oxygen delivery systems repeatedly monitor your breathing changes and pattern to assure proper use of the oxygen delivery doses. 

The majority of users need an increased dose of oxygen while they are asleep, which ensures that you get a suitable dose of oxygen all night. The Inogen G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator achieves this by increasing and decreasing the pulse size. 

This Intelligent Delivery System of the Inogen G3 Portable Oxygen Concentrator identifies shallow mouth breathing while delivering a minute volume of oxygen with each dose. 

Breath Detection Alert Mode - Inogen One G3 Oxygen Concentrator

Inogen One G3 features a breath detection alert mode that repeatedly monitors the user’s breathing pattern. If the oxygen concentrator is unable to identify the breathing pattern after a minute, then it will alert the user through audible and visual signals and enter “Auto Pulse Mode”. The oxygen concentrator will come back to its previous oxygen pulse setting during inhalation and will exit Auto Pulse Mode after it identifies a breath. Consider watching the mode indication area on display to know whether the alert mode is off or on. The indication area will display a bell icon and the red light will be flashing with a message.
