Although medical oxygen generator and home use oxygen concentrator are both oxygen generators, they have both similarities and differences.


Features of home use oxygen concentrator

√ Easy to use, light to move, low power consumption, low noise, low pressure, fast oxygen production, and small gas production.

√ Suitable for groups such as the elderly, children, and pregnant women.

√ Suitable for 1-2 people at the same time. It can meet the needs of general patient treatment or normal people's health care.

√ When used on patients, such as patients with chronic hypoxia, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, sequelae of tuberculosis, etc., the oxygen concentration can be set to more than 60% for long-term use.

√ If it is just pure oxygen therapy, the oxygen concentration only needs to be set above 40%.


The difference between medical oxygen generator and home use oxygen concentrator


Features of medical oxygen generator

√ The medical oxygen generator is a middle or large-scale equipment which requires a separate machine room and requires a fire separation distance from the living area. The equipment can work continuously for a long time and can provide oxygen for many people at the same time.

√ The sale of medical oxygen concentrators requires the approval of medical devices approved by the State Food and Drug Administration. PSA Medical oxygen concentrators can produce medical oxygen with purity max 99%±0.5%. It can be used to rescue patients, and can also be used in plateau environments to solve hypoxia problem.

√ Since the oxygen coming out of the oxygen terminal will become very dry after a series of filtration, it is necessary to equip a humidification bottle for patients to use.

√ Except for first aid, medical oxygen is generally not used directly. Medical staff will deploy medical oxygen on demand, adjust its oxygen concentration, and then use it for clinical treatment of patients. It can be used alone or mixed with other gases.

√ Medical oxygen is suitable for first aid, operating room and oxygen therapy room, etc., especially for patients with severe hypoxia.
