How to prolong the service life of home oxygen concentrator
In modern medical homes, oxygen concentrators have become essential equipment for many patients who need long-term oxygen therapy. As a professional oxygen concentrator manufacturer, AERTI has won the trust of a large number of users with advanced technology, high-quality materials, and a strict quality control system. However, even such excellent equipment cannot be separated from the correct use and careful maintenance of the user. Next, let's explore how to further extend the service life of the home oxygen concentrator through the correct use method.
1. Choose a suitable use environment
The working environment of the oxygen concentrator has a direct impact on its performance and service life. It should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Stay away from water sources to prevent the machine from getting wet; at the same time, avoid direct sunlight or close to damp walls to prevent high temperature and humidity from damaging the internal parts of the machine. A suitable use environment is the basis for the long-term operation of the oxygen concentrator.
2. Clean regularly and keep the inside of the machine clean
The oxygen concentrator air intake filter cotton is the first line of defense to prevent dust and impurities from entering the machine, so it is crucial to clean and replace the air intake filter cotton regularly. If the filter cotton is not installed or is in a damp state, do not operate the oxygen concentrator, otherwise it may cause damage to the compressor and molecular sieve. Before starting the oxygen concentrator, make sure the filter cotton is completely dry and installed correctly. In addition, the high-efficiency filter should also be replaced on time.
3. Use the oxygen concentrator reasonably and pay attention to the running time
Although the oxygen concentrator is designed to work continuously, long-term uninterrupted operation may also cause the machine to overheat. Therefore, it is recommended to let the machine rest for 4-5 hours before use. This can help the machine dissipate heat in time and avoid shutdown due to overheating protection.
For oxygen concentrators with low frequency of use, the humidification bottle should be removed, the water inside should be emptied, and the humidification bottle should be put back in place after drying. At the same time, the machine should be sealed and stored in an undamaged plastic bag to ensure that all sealing and moisture-proof measures are intact.
In addition, even if the oxygen concentrator is not used for a long time, it is recommended to run the machine for about an hour every three days to maintain its stable performance. This is like the need to start the car regularly after being parked for a long time. It seems troublesome, but it is actually very helpful to maintain the performance of the machine.
In summary, it is not difficult to extend the service life of the home oxygen concentrator. The key lies in choosing a suitable use environment, regular cleaning and maintenance, and reasonable use. AERTI oxygen concentrator provides us with a solid foundation with its excellent quality, and our careful care is the key to the long-term continuation of this quality. Let us start from our daily life and protect the health of our family.
