Safety is Number One
Oxygen users know all too well how important it is to have a portable oxygen system they can count on. You shouldn't ever have to experience the pang of anxiety felt when the system goes down without warning. The Respironics Simply Go features the best that technology has to offer with audible alerts in the case of a power outage, no breath detected alarms, and oxygen purity checks. Should your oxygen level fall below the required purity levels you will be notified so you never need to wonder about the quality of your care with Simply Go Portable Oxygen Concentrator.
Battery Power
Battery life is another essential aspect of portable oxygen concentrators. The SimplyGo features a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that can provide up to 3 hours of operation on Pulse Dose mode (setting 2) or a little over 1.5 hours on Continuous Flow mode (1 LPM). The device comes with an AC power supply for home use and a DC power supply for use in vehicles, allowing users to charge and use the SimplyGo while on the road. If you require longer periods of mobility, a second external battery can be purchased to extend the battery life.
Pulse Dose and Continuous Flow Settings
Another notable feature of the SimplyGo is its dual functionality. It provides both Continuous Flow and Pulse Dose oxygen delivery modes, catering to the diverse needs of oxygen therapy patients. The Continuous Flow mode delivers a constant flow of oxygen, adjustable between 0.5 to 2 liters per minute (LPM). The Pulse Dose mode, on the other hand, is designed to deliver oxygen only when the user inhales, thus conserving battery life. This mode offers six different settings to cater to the varying requirements of users.
User-Friendly
The SimplyGo is equipped with a user-friendly control panel, featuring an intuitive display and easy-to-navigate buttons. The LCD screen provides essential information such as battery life, device settings, alarms and oxygen flow rate, making it easy for users to monitor their oxygen therapy.
