Oxygen Concentrators in Tanzania
Available Oxygen Concentrators Models

An oxygen concentrator is a medical device that delivers oxygen therapy to individuals who require supplemental oxygen. Unlike oxygen tanks, which store a finite amount of compressed oxygen, concentrators work by extracting oxygen from the ambient air. They utilize a process called pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to separate nitrogen from the air, leaving behind a higher concentration of oxygen (typically 90-95%) which is then delivered to the patient via a nasal cannula or mask.

This continuous supply of medical-grade oxygen is crucial for patients experiencing respiratory distress or conditions that impair their lungs' ability to absorb sufficient oxygen from the atmosphere. For healthcare providers and patients in Tanzania, oxygen concentrators offer a reliable, on-demand, and generally more cost-effective solution compared to the logistics and recurring costs of traditional oxygen cylinders.

Oxygen concentrators are vital medical devices with broad applications across Tanzania's healthcare landscape. Their demand spans various facility types and specialized departments, ensuring critical respiratory support is available where it's needed most. From large-scale tertiary care centers to smaller, community-focused clinics, reliable oxygen supply is paramount for patient well-being and effective treatment.

Ensuring your oxygen concentrator is optimally set up is crucial for reliable performance and patient well-being. We offer a comprehensive installation service designed for the Tanzanian context, addressing local infrastructure and environmental considerations.

Site Preparation

Before delivery, a suitable installation site needs to be identified. Key considerations include:

• Ventilation: The area must be well-ventilated to prevent overheating and ensure efficient operation. Avoid enclosed spaces or areas with poor airflow.

• Power Supply: A stable and reliable power source is essential. Our team will assess your electrical setup to ensure it meets the concentrator's requirements, including proper grounding and surge protection to safeguard against power fluctuations common in some regions.

• Cleanliness: The installation area should be clean and free from excessive dust, humidity, or potential contaminants that could affect the machine's lifespan and the purity of the oxygen produced.

• Accessibility: The site should allow for easy access for operation, maintenance, and potential servicing.

Delivery And Unpacking

Our logistics team will arrange for the safe and timely delivery of your oxygen concentrator to your facility in Tanzania. Upon arrival, the unit will be carefully unpacked, and a thorough visual inspection will be conducted to ensure no damage occurred during transit. All accessories and user manuals will be accounted for.

Installation Steps

Our certified technicians will follow a rigorous installation procedure:

• Placement: The concentrator will be positioned in the prepared site, ensuring it is on a stable, level surface and adheres to required clearance for ventilation.

• Connection: Power cords will be securely connected to a suitable power outlet. If applicable, tubing and cannulas will be attached according to manufacturer specifications.

• Initial Power-Up: The unit will be powered on for the first time under technician supervision to confirm proper function and detect any immediate operational issues.

Calibration And Testing

Crucially, upon installation, each oxygen concentrator undergoes a detailed calibration and testing phase:

• Oxygen Purity Check: Using specialized equipment, technicians will verify that the oxygen output meets the manufacturer's purity standards (typically 90% or higher).

• Flow Rate Verification: The delivered oxygen flow rate will be checked against the set parameters to ensure it accurately matches the prescribed dosage.

• Alarm System Test: All safety and operational alarms (e.g., low oxygen purity, power failure) will be activated and tested to confirm they are functioning correctly.

• User Training: Our technicians will provide comprehensive training to your designated staff on the operation, basic troubleshooting, and routine maintenance of the oxygen concentrator, ensuring you can manage the device effectively.

A final sign-off by the technician and your representative confirms the successful installation and readiness of the oxygen concentrator for use.

The cost of an oxygen concentrator in Tanzania can vary significantly depending on several factors, including the type of concentrator (stationary vs. portable), its capacity (liters per minute), brand, and the retailer. For a reliable, good-quality stationary oxygen concentrator suitable for home use, you can typically expect prices to range from approximately TSh 1,500,000 to TSh 4,000,000. Portable oxygen concentrators, which offer greater flexibility but often have lower flow rates, will generally be at the higher end of this spectrum, and sometimes exceed it, with prices potentially starting around TSh 2,500,000 and going up to TSh 6,000,000 or more for advanced models.
