Function of humidification bottle
Many consumers do not understand that the oxygen output from the oxygen concentrator needs to go through the humidification bottle, and even some people have raised the question of "it's better to inhale oxygen directly, why do we have to do more?". In fact, the seemingly "complex" operation contains a lot of knowledge.
Function of humidification bottle
1. Wet gas
Most of the oxygen coming out of the oxygen generator is dry, which will stimulate the nasal mucosa and bronchial mucosa and cause discomfort. Therefore, oxygen should be humidified before oxygen inhalation to avoid respiratory tract damage caused by dry oxygen.
2. Observe the oxygen flow rate through bubbles
The humidification bottle can allow users to observe the dynamic flow of oxygen generated by the oxygen concentrator in a real and intuitive way during oxygen absorption, which is convenient for adjustment and detection.
What kind of water is added in the humidification bottle？
Distilled water or purified water should be added into the humidification bottle of the oxygen concentrator. Remember not to add tap water directly. Because distilled water and purified water are treated, impurities are less and cleanliness can be guaranteed. However, the tap water contains many impurities, which will cause the blockage of the nasal oxygen tube, the failure of the oxygen concentrator to exhaust normally and the respiratory injury to the user after long-term use. In addition, the water in the humidification bottle should be replaced every day. Before oxygen absorption, make sure that the bottle cover is tightened.
How much water is added to the humidification bottle？
As for water volume, water should be between the maximum scale and the minimum scale. If there is too little water, oxygen may not be sufficiently wet; There is too much water. Some oxygen concentrators start up for a long time, and the fuselage heats up. Too much water will cause water to enter into the interior and damage the machine due to the high temperature of the fuselage! So how much water should be added according to the scale requirements of the water level!
Note: When connecting the humidification bottle, pay attention to the direction of the humidification bottle inlet and outlet, and do not connect it wrong!
How to clean the humidification bottle？
The humidification bottle itself is easy to contain dirt, so it should be disinfected and cleaned regularly. Remove the humidification bottle from the machine, clean it with neutral detergent and rinse it with clean water; Mix white vinegar and hot water in a ratio of 1:3, put the humidification bottle into the mixing solution and soak it for 30 minutes for disinfection, then rinse the humidification bottle thoroughly with warm water and dry it for standby.
