CONCENTRATOR MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Normal maintenance is to be performed by the user or caregiver. The
following outlines normal maintenance procedures.
NOTE: The Invacare Concentrators are specifically designed to minimize routine
preventive maintenance at intervals of once per year. In places with high dust or soot
levels, maintenance may need to be performed more often. Preventive maintenance must
be performed at a minimum of one (1) year in service to assure years of additional
reliability. Only authorized or factory-trained personnel should perform preventive
maintenance on the concentrator. Power should be disconnected before beginning
preventive maintenance on the Invacare concentrator.
A. CLEANING THE CABINET FILTERS
NOTE: There are two (2) cabinet filters. One (1) is located on each side of the
cabinet (FIGURE 1).
1. Remove each filter and
CLEAN AT LEAST ONCE
A WEEK depending on
environmental conditions
(FIGURE 2).
NOTE: Environmental conditions that
may require more frequent cleaning of the
filters include but are not limited to: high
dust, smoking, air pollutants, etc.
2. Clean the cabinet filters with a vacuum cleaner or wash in warm
soapy water and rinse thoroughly (FIGURE 2).
3. Dry the filters thoroughly before reinstallation.
