Oxygen Concentrator (10 LPM) in South Africa
Leading Oxygen Concentrator (10 LPM) Supplier

An Oxygen Concentrator (10 LPM) is a sophisticated medical device designed to deliver supplemental oxygen to patients who require higher flow rates than standard concentrators can provide. Unlike oxygen cylinders which store a finite amount of oxygen, a concentrator extracts nitrogen from the ambient air, leaving behind a concentrated stream of medical-grade oxygen. The '10 LPM' designation signifies that this particular unit can deliver a continuous flow of up to 10 litres of oxygen per minute, making it suitable for patients with moderate to severe respiratory conditions or those requiring oxygen during strenuous activity or sleep.

Its primary function is to increase the oxygen saturation levels in a patient's bloodstream, thereby improving respiratory function, reducing breathlessness, and supporting vital organ performance. The 10 LPM capacity is crucial for individuals who experience significant hypoxemia (low blood oxygen levels) and need a robust and consistent oxygen supply to maintain adequate oxygenation.

High-flow oxygen concentrators, such as the 10 LPM models, are essential for a range of healthcare settings and patient needs across South Africa. Their ability to deliver a consistent and high concentration of medical-grade oxygen makes them indispensable for critical care and advanced respiratory support. While smaller units are suitable for home use or basic clinics, the 10 LPM capacity is specifically designed for scenarios demanding a greater oxygen supply, catering to more severe respiratory conditions and a higher patient throughput.

Our dedicated installation process ensures your 10 LPM Oxygen Concentrator is set up efficiently and safely in your South African healthcare facility. We understand the critical nature of reliable oxygen supply, and our trained technicians follow a rigorous procedure to guarantee optimal performance from day one.

Site Preparation

Before delivery, ensure the designated installation area meets the following requirements:

• Ventilation: A well-ventilated space is crucial to prevent overheating. The concentrator should have at least 12 inches (30 cm) of clearance on all sides.

• Power Source: A stable, grounded electrical outlet conforming to South African standards (e.g., 220-240V, 50Hz) is required. Avoid using extension cords or multi-plugs.

• Environment: The area should be clean, dry, and free from excessive dust, humidity, or flammable gases. Maintain a temperature range of 10°C to 40°C.

• Accessibility: The installation site should be easily accessible for maintenance and servicing.

Delivery And Unpacking

Upon arrival, our logistics team will carefully transport the 10 LPM Oxygen Concentrator to your prepared site. The unit will be professionally unpacked, and all accessories and packaging materials will be removed. A visual inspection will be conducted to ensure no damage occurred during transit.

Installation Steps

• Positioning: The concentrator will be placed in its designated, prepared location, ensuring proper ventilation and stability.

• Power Connection: The power cord will be securely plugged into the grounded electrical outlet.

• Oxygen Outlet Connection: The provided oxygen tubing will be connected to the oxygen outlet port of the concentrator and to the patient interface (e.g., nasal cannula, mask) or distribution manifold as required. All connections will be checked for a secure seal.

• Filter Check: Internal and external air filters will be confirmed as correctly installed and clean.

Calibration And Testing

Once physically installed, our technicians will perform essential calibration and testing to verify the unit's performance:

• Power-On and Initialization: The concentrator will be powered on, allowing it to complete its self-diagnostic and initialization sequence.

• Oxygen Purity Measurement: Using a calibrated oxygen analyzer, the purity of the delivered oxygen will be measured to ensure it meets the specified standards (typically >90% at 10 LPM).

• Flow Rate Verification: The actual oxygen flow rate will be checked against the set 10 LPM to confirm accuracy.

• Alarm System Test: All audible and visual alarms (e.g., low oxygen purity, power failure) will be tested to ensure they are functioning correctly.

• Operational Run: The concentrator will run for a specified period to confirm stable operation and consistent oxygen delivery.

Upon successful completion of all installation and calibration steps, our technician will provide a brief handover, explaining basic operation and maintenance requirements.
