Eclipse 5
Step 3: Connect the Oxygen Supply
Tubing or Nasal Cannula to the Oxygen
Outlet
Replace the cannula and oxygen supply tubing
regularly, as recommended by your home care
provider. Consult your home care provider for can-
nula and supply tubing cleaning and replacement
information.
Note: Ensure the cannula is fully inserted and
secure. This ensures that the Oxygen Concentrator
can properly detect inspiration for oxygen delivery.
During inhalation, you should hear or feel oxygen
flow to the prongs of the nasal cannula. The proper
placement and positioning of the prongs of the
nasal cannula in your nose is critical to the amount
of oxygen delivered to the respiratory system of the
end user.
Step 4:
Select the Flow Mode
Press the Flow Mode button to select the desired
mode. Pressing this button repeatedly will toggle
you back and forth between Pulse Dose Mode and
Continuous Flow Mode. The proper mode and
proper setting should be prescribed for you by your
physician.
Continuous Flow Mode Operation:
When operating in the Continuous Flow Mode, a
continuous supply of oxygen measured in liters per
minute (LPM) will flow through your tubing and
nasal cannula.
Pulse Dose Mode Operation:
When operating in Pulse Mode, a bolus of oxygen,
measured in milliliters (mL), is delivered upon
inspiration. DO NOT use a humidifier in the Pulse
Dose Mode.
To ensure proper saturations, secure a prescription
for pulse dose from your physician with con-
sideration to your needs at rest, during exercise,
and when traveling at altitude. Contact your care
provider for prescription and boarding forms.
When operating in pulse dose mode, the Eclipse
5 supplies a continuous flow of oxygen if a breath
is not detected. The device will continually check
for an inspiratory effort every 15 seconds. Once
an inspiration is detected, the device reverts to
measured bolus delivery. To exit Pulse Dose Mode
and engage Continuous Flow Mode, push the flow
mode button.
First Time Eclipse 5 Operation
Step 1: Positioning Your Eclipse 5 for
Use
Place the Eclipse 5 in a well-ven-
tilated, well lit area. Be sure the
air inlet and exhaust vents are not
obstructed.
Position the Eclipse 5 so that all
audible and visual indicators or
alarms can be easily seen and
heard.
Be sure the air inlet filter is in
place before operating your
Eclipse 5. If the air inlet filter is missing, contact
your home care provider. If the air inlet filter is
dirty, wash with warm soapy water, rinse with clear
water and allow it to dry before placing the air inlet
filter back in the device. If necessary, replace it with
a new, clean air inlet filter.
Plug the device into an appropriate AC Power out-
let, a DC Power source, or be sure there is a fully
charged Battery installed.
Step 2:
Power ON the Device and
Allow it to Warm-Up
Press and hold the “ON/OFF” Button for two
(2) seconds to power ON your Eclipse 5. A brief
audible and visual power-on self-test will occur.
Verify that all the power verification indicators are
illuminated and that a buzzer sounds to indicate the
device is operating properly.
The Eclipse 5 has an oxygen concentration status
indicator (OCSI) built in to the device. The OCSI
continually monitors the oxygen output of the
device and incorporates a green light (normal),
yellow light (alert), and a buzzer. These indicators
will all illuminate during the power-on self-test at
start-up. After initially powering ON the device,
please allow up to five (5) minutes for the device to
reach its performance specifications. When only the
green indicator light is illuminated, the device has
reached its performance specifications.
