Philips SimplyGo Portable Oxygen Concentrator - Oxygen Delivery Mode
The Philips SimplyGo portable oxygen concentrator offers three delivery modes
Continuous Flow Mode
In continuous flow mode, the POC delivers a constant flow of oxygen up to 2 liters per minute. Some patients may also have sleep apnea and require CPAP therapy in addition to supplemental oxygen. For those patients, a CPAP machine can be connected and used with the SimplyGo while in continuous flow mode.
Pulse Mode
In pulse mode, the POC detects when the user begins to take a breath and delivers a pulsed volume of oxygen on inhalation based on the settings. Oxygen does not flow upon exhalation. This requires less effort from the motor, which extends the battery duration. The system automatically delivers the pulsed volume of oxygen at 12 breaths per minute if the Respironics SimplyGo portable oxygen concentrator doesn’t detect any breath for a period of time. Similarly, if the device is unable to detect any breath for 2 minutes then it signals an alarm. The oxygen concentrator will wait for 30 minutes for a breath before automatically shutting down.
Bleep Mode
In this mode, the Respironics SimplyGo portable oxygen concentrator delivers the pulse volume of prescribed oxygen only after a breach is detected. The device delivers a softer pulse and provides increased sensitivity so that the patient doesn’t feel overwhelmed and can comfortably undergo therapy. The device switches back to previously used continuous flow mode settings if it doesn’t detect breath and automatically starts delivering a continuous flow of oxygen.
SimplyGo Is A Durable Portable Oxygen Concentrator
To ensure dependable operation every day, the SimplyGo portable oxygen machine underwent extensive testing and was put through harsh situations including shocks, vibrations, and temperatures.

FAQs
What is the Battery Power of a Respironics SimplyGo Portable Oxygen Concentrator?
A notable feature of SimplyGo is how accessible the battery is, making it easy for patients to change. No more internal batteries built into the device, and no more battery belts or connectors.
As seen in the chart, the Philips Respironics SimplyGo delivers between 1 to 3.4 hours of battery life, depending on your oxygen settings. Whether you are going on a road trip or a quick trip to the grocery store, SimplyGo will help you get there.
In addition to the battery, the Respironics SimplyGo portable oxygen concentrator comes with an AC power supply and a DC power cord. Both will charge the battery while the device is plugged in, but charging time will vary depending on the concentrator’s settings. While using DC power, some device settings may prevent the battery from charging at all.
What are the Oxygen Settings of a Respironics SimplyGo Portable Oxygen Concentrator?
As mentioned, the Respironics SimplyGo Portable Oxygen Concentrator is one of the few POCs that offers both continuous flow and pulse dose modes.
