The Oxus portable oxygen concentrator is a lightweight, supplemental oxygen system designed to give you the independence to live your life without worry about oxygen tank refills, home filling systems, or running out of oxygen while you are away from home. The Oxus portable concentrator was created with every feature important to oxygen dependent patients in mind. With Oxus, you can have a compact and portable POC without compromising on battery life, decibel level, or oxygen output.

The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator features one of the sleekest designs available on the market today. With a light gray molded plastic shell, the Oxus POC is a good looking solution for oxygen dependent patients seeking freedom to travel around town and even across the country. The Oxus has a sturdy carry handle made of dark gray molded plastic, contributing to the contemporary look of the unit with a modern two-toned design.

Standing at less than a foot tall, and just 7.6” wide and 5.6” deep, the Oxus is one of the most compact portable oxygen concentrators available on the market without compromising on battery life, oxygen delivery and output, and noise level.

Highlights:

  • Delivers up to 850 mL/minute of oxygen with a fixed bolus delivery system.
  • Quiet, Compact Lightweight Design.
  • FAA approved for travel on all US Airlines.

Appearance:

Dimensions: 7.6” Wide x 5.6” Deep x 11.9” High
Weight: 9.9 lbs

The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator has an easily accessible control panel and user friendly interface. A large, blue, one-touch power button quickly turns the unit on and off. Easy to read plus and minus buttons allow you to choose between oxygen output levels with the push of a button. A battery life button quickly displays the remaining battery life available to ensure that patients always know how much time they have between battery charges.

The display readout on the Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator delivers full text alerts and messages to eliminate confusion for patients when operating the POC.

Portability:

The Drive Oxus was designed to give patients needing supplemental oxygen the freedom to live their active lifestyles without concern about oxygen tanks and refills. With the Oxus portable oxygen concentrator, you are back in control of your life. Take your grandchildren to the park, pack up for a long road trip, and even fly across the country with the ease.

At less than 10 pounds with the battery installed and standing at less than a foot tall, the compact Oxus is ideal for travel and makes bringing oxygen with you when you are away from home a breeze. The Oxus features a sturdy carry handle made of molded plastic and comes with an included carrying case, shoulder strap and traveling cart.

The Oxus features an impressive four hours of battery life when used on the most common setting, and comes with an additional rechargeable battery to increase the amount of time patients can be away from home between charges. The Oxus also comes with both AC and DC adapters to allow battery operation and charging to take place at home and on the road. When the Oxus is in use at the highest setting, each battery takes approximately three hours to fully charge.

The Oxus is FAA approved for use on all US Airlines. With the two included, rechargeable batteries, you can enjoy up to eight hours of battery life between charges. This time table allows a patient requiring supplemental oxygen to travel on a typical flight from Florida to Seattle without worry about running out of oxygen or battery life. The Oxus operates in any position so that it can be stored beneath an airline seat while in use. It’s always a good idea to call your airline before travel to inform them that you will be traveling with a portable oxygen concentrator.

Oxygen Delivery:

The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator delivers a fixed bolus size of 30 BPM. This is a unique feature of the Oxus, as most portable oxygen concentrators deliver oxygen using a fixed volume per minute method. As your breath rate increases, volume per minute oxygen delivery methods begin to deliver less oxygen per breath. The Fixed Bolus delivery method ensures that the set flow rate is delivered regardless of how many breaths per minute you take.

A portable oxygen concentrator should be a reliable machine, and a patient’s safety is of the upmost importance. The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator features an oxygen sensor that alerts the user if something goes wrong with the machine. Pulse dose portable oxygen concentrators deliver oxygen when they sense breathing, making breath detection sensitivity one of the most important safety features on a POC. The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator is one of the most sensitive POCs available on the market to deliver consistent levels of oxygen while in use.

Cost:

The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator is delivered with everything you need to begin using your POC. The Oxus comes with two rechargeable batteries offering up to 8 hours of battery life. An AC power adapter for charging and operating the Oxus at home is included, as is a DC power supply that runs and charges the Oxus while in the car. Also included with the Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator are a custom carrying case, shoulder strap, handle strap and traveling cart.

The Oxus Portable Oxygen Concentrator is one of the only concentrators on the market that offers a streamlined, compact unit with the features and freedom that patients want. The Oxus delivers the equivalent of up to 5 liters per minute of oxygen with a fixed bolus delivery method to guarantee that the quantity of oxygen per breath is not compromised as breath rate increases. The Oxus runs at just 43 decibels to deliver oxygen quietly and inconspicuously. With up to 8 hours of battery life between the two included batteries, the Oxus is a great solution for use at home and away.
