Today, we will introduce some information of the humidifier of oxygen concentrator.
Function of humidifier of oxygen concentrator
1. To humidify the gas
Most of the oxygen coming out of the oxygen generator is dry, and this dry oxygen can irritate the nasal mucosa and bronchial mucosa and cause discomfort. Therefore, when inhaling oxygen, humidify the oxygen first to avoid damage to the respiratory tract caused by dry oxygen.
2. Observe the oxygen flow rate through bubbles
During oxygen inhalation, the humidification cup allows users to observe the dynamic flow of oxygen produced by the oxygen concentrator in a true and intuitive manner, which is convenient for adjustment and detection.

What kind of water is added to the humidifier bottle?
Distilled water or purified water should be added to the humidifier bottle of the oxygen concentrator. Remember not to add tap water directly. Because distilled water and purified water are processed, there are fewer impurities and cleanliness can be guaranteed. The tap water contains a lot of impurities, and long-term use will cause problems such as blockage of the nasal oxygen tube, failure of the oxygen generator to exhaust gas, and respiratory damage to users. In addition, the water in the humidifier bottle should be replaced every day. Make sure that the lid of the bottle is tightened before inhaling oxygen.
How to clean the humidifier bottle?
The humidifier bottle itself is easy to contain dirt and dirt, so it should be disinfected and cleaned regularly. Remove the humidifier bottle from the oxygen concentrator, clean it with a neutral detergent and rinse it with clean water; mix white vinegar with hot water in a ratio of 1:3, put the humidification cup in the mixture and soak for 30 minutes for disinfection. Then rinse the humidifier bottle thoroughly with warm water, and dry it for later use.
