NewLife Intensity 10
Safety Features
The following information will acquaint you with
safety features of the NewLife Oxygen Concen-
trator. Make sure you read and understand all the
information contained in this manual before you
operate your unit. Should you have any questions,
your Equipment Provider will be happy to answer
them for you.
• Compressor Motor: A pressure
relief valve is fitted to the
compressor outlet and is cal-
ibrated to 360 kPa (52 psig).
Thermal safety is ensured by
a thermal safety switch which
will cause the compressor to
shut down (65 °C / 149 °F).
• General Malfunction: If any of
the conditions listed below oc-
curs, the general malfunction
light (
) will illuminate and
an audible intermittent alarm
will activate. This includes:
• Obstruction to the flow of
oxygen such as a pinch
or kink in the delivery
cannula, triggered by high
product tank pressure
Note: 10 LPM Single Flow Meter Only
• High device product tank pressure condition
of greater than 38 psig (±1)
• Low device product tank pressure condition
of less than 15 psig (±1)
• High device temperature of greater than
135°C (275 °F), triggered by low product
tank pressure if the thermal switch located
within the compressor trips (shutting down
the compressor)
• Oxygen Monitor: In the event the oxygen monitor
detects an oxygen concentration below 82%, the
low oxygen concentration warning light (
)
will illuminate. If the low O2 condition persists,
an audible intermittent alarm will also activate.
• Power Failure: In the event the unit is operating
and a loss of power occurs, the power warning
light (
) will illuminate and an audible
intermittent alarm will activate.
• Product Filter: ≥ 10 μm filter
Note: Dual Flow New Life Intensity—Obstruction
to the flow of oxygen such as a pinch or kink in the
delivery cannula will cause the flow meter ball to drop
to zero as an indicator of no flow.
Device warning label
and alarm display.
Oxygen Monitor
The oxygen monitor is a small electronic device
within the NewLife Oxygen Concentrator that
monitors the concentration of oxygen produced
by the unit. If oxygen concentration falls below
the acceptable therapeutic level, a yellow oxygen
monitor light on the Oxygen Concentrator turns on.
If the light remains on for more than 15 minutes, an
intermittent alarm sounds.
CAUTION: Contact your Equipment Pro-
vider immediately if the yellow oxygen
monitor light remains on for more than
15 minutes.
Note: When you turn the unit on, it is normal for the
yellow oxygen monitor light to turn on and remain on
for up to five minutes.
