How Does the Nuvo Mark 5 Nuvo Nidek Mark 5 Stationary O2 Concentrator Work?

The air that enters the Mark 5 Nuvo Lite Oxygen Concentrator is filtered by an external cabinet air filter and then passes through the suction tube and fine filter. The suction sound of the compressor is silenced by the suction tube. The pressurized air coming from the compressor goes to a pair of 3-way solenoid valves through a heat exchanger. The purpose of the heat exchanger is to reduce the temperature of the compressed air. The nitrogen is then extracted from the air so that the device can deliver only the high purity oxygen by passing the air through the sieve beds that contain molecular sieve.

Starting Up/Installation of Nidek Mark 5 Nuvo Lite Oxygen Concentrator

• Use oxygen treatment that is delivered indirectly. Check to see whether the switch is turned off.
• For usage in the absence of a humidifier The cannula is connected directly to the concentrator oxygen product output through the bottle.

• Remove the lid from the humidifier bottle and fill it with water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Connect the oxygen concentrator to the bottle and reattach the cover. Attach the bottle to the concentrator using the connection straps as directed.
