SUGGESTIONS FOR P ACKAGING AND SHIPPING

1. Obtain a return authorization number from Invacare customer service and write the
complete return authorization (RA) number on the outside of the shipping carton.

2. Put the return authorization number and return mailing information inside the carton.
Include your phone number in the event we need to contact you.

3. Do not send any accessories or literature.

4. Use an Invacare (product specific) shipping carton and packing if possible. If one is not
available, call Invacare customer service for an approved carton to prevent any shipping
damage.

5. Do not use “popcorn” or paper to pack the equipment.


(The small particles can enter the equipment and cause damage).

6. The unit should be cleaned internally to save a $25.00 cleaning charge.

Packing Suggestions:
• Save box and inserts for returning units.

• Rinsing the cabinet filters with water often helps keep the inside of unit clean
(Effects Concentrator/Homefill).

• Record shipping tracking number in case carrier loses product.

• When shipping multiple units on one pallet, write number of units on the shipping
manifests.

• Visit our web site at www.invacare.ca for products, parts, and service manuals.

PRESSURE TEST GAUGE KIT

Pressure Gauge Tap In Kit Part # 2001673


Troubleshooting the system pressures can be done by
tapping into the tubing that connects the sieve bed to
the product tank. The pressure gauge tap in kit comes
with detailed installation instructions, pressure gauge,
and tap in hardware.

“System Pressure 5L”


(see the service manual for further explanation)
System pressure should rise within 20 seconds to 21
PSIG +/- 0.3 and shift the 4-Way valve to the opposite
sieve bed. After the 4-Way valve shift, the pressure in
the concentrator will drop to 14 PSIG +/- 2. before
rising within 20 seconds to 21 PSIG +/- .3 and shift the
4-way valve to the opposite bed.

“System Pressure 10L”


(see the service manual for further explanation)
System pressure should rise within 20 seconds to 25
PSIG +/- 0.3 and shift the 4-Way valve to the opposite
sieve bed. After the 4-Way valve shift, the pressure in
the concentrator will drop to 16 PSIG +/- 2. and shift
the 4-Way valve to the opposite bed.

PRESSURE TESTING THROUGH THE HOMEFILL PORT

Invacare repair technicians have recently discovered a time saving tip for field technicians,
and we want to share our discovery! Concentrator sieve bed pressure swings can now be
read through the Homefill port (this tip only applies to units that are Homefill II
compatible). In the past, sieve bed pressure testing was done through a t-fitting attached
to a tube between the check valve and the product tank. Utilize this NEW information, and
it will improve your mean-time-to-repair Invacare concentrators and your overall
productivity.

Parts needed to check sieve bed pressure through Homefill II port:


1 ea. 0-30 psi. Pressure Gauge (Invacare Part Number 2001673)
1 ea. Homefill II Fill Line (Invacare Part Number 1105177)
1 ea. Blue ty-wrap (Invacare Part Number 2001682)
NOTE: If you already have a good 0-30 psi. gauge, you will only need items 2 and 3.

Assembly Instructions:
Step 1: Remove tubing from your new or current 0-30 psi. gauge.
Step 2: Fold the Homefill II fill line (PN 1105177) in half and cut it at the fold.
Step 3: Take one cut end of the fill line and att ach it to your 0-30 psi. gauge.
Step 4: Use one blue ty-wrap (PN 2001682) on the gauge end of the line to prevent leaks.
Step 5: Test assembly by connecting to the HFII port on a Platinum concentrator, (figure 1).
Step 6: Turn the concentrator ON.
Step 7: Adjust flowmeter to maximum LPM.
Step 8: View gauge, you should notice pressure swings within 20 seconds, (figure 2).
Step 9: Consult the troubleshooting section in this manual to further diagnose problems.

Figure 1. Step 5 Figure 2. Step 8

Factory Specifications for Sieve Bed Pressure Swings:


1G Platinum = starts at 14 psi. +/- 2 psi. then rises to 20 psi. +/- .03 psi. within 20 seconds.
Platinum XL = starts at 14 psi. +/- 2 psi. then rises to 21 psi. +/- .03 psi. within 20 seconds.
Platinum 10 = starts at 16 psi. +/- 2 psi. then rises to 25 psi. +/- .03 psi. within 20 seconds.

CHECK O2 PLUS IRC400

Now there is one economical instrument that reports all the operating parameters
necessary for performing concentrator checks. Introducing the Invacare Check O2 Plus
(TM), an efficient and cost-effective analyzer designed with technicians in mind. It checks
oxygen concentration (%), *flow rate (L/min), and patient outlet pressure (psi & kPa) on any
oxygen concentrator. What is more, it never needs to be calibrated, and there is no fuel cell
to replace. The Invacare Check O2Plus is three analyzers rolled into one.

FEATURES / BENEFITS

• Never needs to be calibrated.

• Never needs to have the fuel cell


replaced. It uses ultrasonic, rather
than galvanic fuel cell technology.

• Measure three parameters,


eliminating the need for multiple
instruments.

• Features simple, two button


operation.

• 9-volt battery power source


provides three years of typical use.

• Shuts off automatically to extend


battery life.

• 2-year limited warranty.

Caution

Do not hook IRC400 up to high pressure.


Do not use IRC400 to test units L/min. on
units rated over 5 L/min.
Do not test outlet pressure on units with
pressures set above 5 psi.

4-Way Valve Function Test Technical Bulletin

The 4-way valve used in the Invacare LX Series and Platinum Series Concentrators does have
an acceptable tolerance of leakage per RexRoth.

By nature of the valve design it is possible for the valve to experience small leaks, and still
operate without affecting the overall performance of the unit. The valve is assembled together
using several parts, meaning the components that make up the valve itself lock together. The
only screws in the valve are for securing the valve to the manifold assembly.

According to RexRoth there is an acceptable leak specification of 60 cc per minute at 20 psi on


each valve. Valves that have leaks within this specification will function properly without any
adverse effects to the performance of the concentrator. A leak in the amount of 60 cc or less
would be indicative of the type of small leak you would notice where the end caps connect to the
main body or where the three pieces of the main body connect together. A 60 cc leak would not
be noticeable when examining the system pressure swings.

Leaks greater than 60 cc are indicative of cracks in the end caps, or a blown seal where the end
cap connects to the main body of the valve. These leaks are detected by either reading the
system swing pressures, noticing two consecutive swings not being equal or by hearing an
audible leak every other cycle. Leaks of this extreme nature indicate the valve needs to be
replaced.

Valves should only need to be replaced when the following conditions exist:
1. A visible crack is noted on either of the end caps or main body, regardless of the amount
of leak.

2. A large leak is present on the valve that causes an imbalance in the sieve bed swing
pressures. Example: Sieve Bed 1 pressure swings from 14 psi to 21 psi, within 7-20
seconds and Sieve Bed 2 pressure swings from 13 psi to 21 psi slowly, and may take as
long as 25-30 seconds before shifting (times over 30 second will shut down
automatically).

3. Valve won’t shift and the pilot valve solenoid and circuit board are working properly.
NOTE: The concentrator’s P.C.B. should exhibit an error code for High Pressure Failure
(1 Red/2 Green).

Check each end cap Use a 0-30 psi pressure gauge


for cracks and for to monitor system pressure
major leaks. You swings, and also record the
should NOT use leak amount of time it takes to
detector on the valve. achieve a shift (full charge and
full purge).

NOTE: The best method to test the 4-way valve operation is by measuring the unit pressure
swings. This can easily be done at the Homefill port with a 0-30 psi pressure gauge and a ¼” fill
line adapter, or a by adding a ¼” t-fitting between the check valve and the product tank. Upon
starting the unit should build pressure up to 21 psi before its initial shift. After the initial shift the
unit should shift consistently in equal amounts of time +/- 1 second (time recorded in seconds).

Invacare Test Verification Procedure Instructions

The following instructions outline the completion of the “Invacare Test Verification Procedure” that must
be completed on each concentrator repair. Proper completion of the test verifications outlined in this
procedure determines the need / extent of warranty work to be performed on the concentrator.

1.0 Complete the top section of the form.


1.1 Record the Work Order Number or R/A Number.
1.2 Record the Inbound Hours and the Outbound Hours.
1.3 Record the Model of the concentrator ie: IRC5LX or IRC5LXO2.
1.4 Record the concentrator serial number.
1.5 Record the P.C. B. Fault Code if applicable.
1.6 Record the date of service.
1.7 Record the customer stated problem / reason for return.

2.0 Perform O2% Reading Verification Test #1.


2.1 Perform a visual inspection of the unit looking for damaged components. Place an X in
the appropriate box.
2.2 Check the Outlet HEPA Filter, replace if necessary. Place an X in the appropriate box.
2.3 Check the Compressor Inlet Filter, replace if necessary. Place an X in the appropriate
box.
2.4 Turn the concentrator ON and verify the Flowmeter accuracy ensuring the flow is steady
with no fluctuation. Place an X in the appropriate box.
2.5 Check the Outside Cabinet Filters, replace if necessary. Place an X in the appropriate
box.
2.6 Allow the concentrator to run at the maximum liter flow for a minimum of 20 minutes
then check the O2%. Record the O2% in the appropriate section for Test #1.

3.0 Perform O2% Reading Verification Test #2.


3.1 Verify the Patient Outlet Pressure is within specification. Adjust if necessary. Place an X
in the appropriate box.
3.2 Check for missing or loose clamps / tie-wraps, while verifying there are no leaks at any
of the hose connections. Replace clamps / tie-wraps and repair leaks if necessary. Place
an X in the appropriate box.
3.3 Check the 4-Way Valve and Manifold Assembly for leaks. NOTE: The 4-Way Valve has
an acceptable leak rate of 60cc/m @ 20 psi operating pressure. A leak of 60cc/m will
NOT affect the overall performance of the concentrator, therefore the valve SHOULD
NOT BE REPLACED. Repair any other leaks found if necessary. Place an X in the
appropriate box.
3.4 Check the Compressor Fittings and Heat Exchanger Hoses for leaks. Repair leaks if
necessary. Place an X in the appropriate box.
3.5 Check the Sieve Bed Hoses, Check Valves and Product Tank for leaks. Repair leaks if
necessary. Place an X in the appropriate box.

12
3.6 Ensure the Concentrator has been running at the maximum liter flow for a minimum of
20 minutes then check the O2%. Record the O2% in the appropriate section for Test #2.

4.0 Perform O2% Reading Verification Test #3.


4.1 Connect a 0-30 psi pressure gauge to the concentrator via the Homefill Port. Time how
long it takes for the pressure to go from the low point to the high point noting the time for
2 consecutive cycles. Record the cycle times in the appropriate sections. NOTE: If the
cycle times are greater than 20 seconds this indicates the compressor is in need of a Top
End Rebuild.
4.2 Indicate the Compressor Model Number on the Form.
4.3 If required perform the Compressor Top End Rebuild per instructions in the Service
Manual. Indicate if the compressor was rebuilt on the form. If the compressor was

static electricity created by any type of friction.

Platinum™Series 12 Part No 1110538


SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

Installation/Verification of Battery Free Power Loss


Alarm
When your new Platinum concentrator arrives, it should be checked for proper operating 
conditions.
1. If the unit has been in below‐freezing temperatures, allow it to warm up to room 
temperature before operating.
2. The concentrator may need to be turned on for four to five seconds to charge the 
Battery Free Power Loss Alarm. Connect power cord to outlet and turn the 
concentrator on. Turn flow control knob counterclockwise and flow will begin 
IMMEDIATELY. Set flow rate to five L/min. Let the unit run for 30 minutes, then turn 
unit off.
3. Unplug the power cord and press on/off ( I/O) switch to the On (I/) position. An 
intermittent audible alarm will sound. This confirms proper operation of the Battery 
Free Power Loss Alarm. Turn On/Off switch Off (/O).
4. Connect power cord to outlet and turn on concentrator. Unit will beep on start‐up. 
5. Check the oxygen concentration per specifications after 30‐40 minutes running time.

Sequence of Operation
Turning on (I) the power switch applies 120 VAC to the compressor motor, hour meter, 
transformer, cooling fan and the printed circuit (P.C.) board.
Room air enters the compressor via the cabinet filter and the compressor inlet filter. The 
air is compressed by the wobble pistons in the compressor to a pressure of 21 p.s.i. (144.79 
kPa) for Platinum 5, XL and 25 p.s.i. (172.36 kPa) for Platinum 10. 
As increased pressure creates increased temperature, a heat exchanger is used to lower 
the temperature before the air enters the 4‐way valve. It is then channeled to a sieve bed 
containing the adsorption material. Restriction downstream of the sieve bed causes 
pressure to build up inside the sieve bed which is necessary for the adsorption process. A 
small amount of relatively pure oxygen enters the top of the second bed through a 
restrictive leak in the pressure equalization (P.E.) valve with the balance entering a 
storage tank. The nitrogen removed is exhausted back from the bed through the 4‐way 
valve into room air. A muffler is located at the exhaust end of the valve to muffle the 
sound of the exhaust as it exits the concentrator.
The oxygen not being used to exhaust is channeled into the storage tank. The pressurized 
oxygen is regulated down to five p.s.i. (34.4 kPa), enters an accurate flow‐measuring 
device, flows through Outlet HEPA filter and check valve, then out to the patient.
Part No 1110538 13 Platinum™Series
SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

The electrical activation of the 4‐way Valve is accomplished every 8 to 15 seconds by the 
pressure sensor and P.C. Board electronics when the pressure reaches a set point of 21 
p.s.i. (144.79 kPa) for Platinum 5 and XL; 25 p.s.i. (172.36) for Platinum 10. The time 
between cycles is dependent on altitude, flow rate and internal environmental factors.
A P.E. valve opens just prior to the shift of the 4‐way valve. This allows highly 
concentrated oxygen to enter the just exhausted bed from the top. This additional 
pressure allows the bed to start its cycle at a higher pressure. The P.E. valve will close just 
after the shift of the 4‐way valve.
If main power is lost, the Battery Free Power Loss Alarm will sound a short ʺBEEPʺ, with 
a long pause after. All units are equipped with a diagnostic alarm system that signals if 
the pneumatic pressure or electrical systems malfunction. The Troubleshooting Guide in 
this manual explains the alarm system signals and reasons, in detail, for your 
convenience.

SensO2 Oxygen Sensor Technology - Ceramic Zirconia


Sensor

Technical Description
The oxygen being produced by the concentrator flows out of the product tank and into 
the flowmeter. A small flow of oxygen produced by the unit is sent through a precision 
orifice to the oxygen sensor mounted on the printed circuit board.
As the oxygen enters the sensor, it passes through a screen and contacts the sensing disk.
Electric current flowing through a metal film resistor heats the disk in excess of 300° C.  

Oxygen molecules contact the electrode of the disk and pick‐up extra electrons to become 
oxygen ions. These oxygen ions are attracted to the electrode on the bottom of the zirconia 
sensing disk. Because of the crystal structure of the zirconia, only oxygen ions can pass 
through. When the oxygen ions reach the bottom electrode, the extra electrons are 
released from the oxygen ions and oxygen molecules return to the air. The number of 
electrons is directly related to the oxygen concentration. The electrons travel to the P.C. 
board where they are counted and the oxygen concentration reading is calculated.
A microprocessor on the P.C. board contains software that interprets the signal being 
received from the sensor. It compares the signal to clinically acceptable limits. Signals 
outside of the clinically acceptable limits generate responses in the form of lights, audible 
indicators, and/or system shut‐down.

Operating Sequence
Once the power switch has been turned on  (I/), the SensO2 circuit will wait five minutes 
for the concentrator to begin producing clinically acceptable oxygen and the oxygen 
sensor to stabilize. The GREEN light will illuminate (indicating normal system operation) 
while the oxygen sensor is warming up.

Platinum™Series 14 Part No 1110538


SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

After five minutes, if the oxygen purity exceeds 85% ± 2%, the GREEN light will continue 
to illuminate.
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% after the first five minutes, the system will 
continue to monitor the O2 and wait for a maximum of 30 minutes from start‐up to reach 
85% ± 2% before activating an alarm. Environmental factors such as low voltage, high 
altitude, or age of the machine will affect the time required to reach 85% ± 2%. 
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% within the first 30 minutes, the oxygen 
concentration alarm sequence will activate and the unit will shut down.
When oxygen concentration is above 85% ± 2%, the sensor measures oxygen purity every 
10 minutes. If a reading falls below 85% ± 2%, a YELLOW light will illuminate. If the 
oxygen purity falls below 73% ± 3% the RED light/Alarm/Shut‐Down mode will activate.

Replacing P.C. Board


 DANGER
To prevent electrical shock, ALWAYS disconnect concentrator from electrical
outlet before servicing.

CAUTION
Only qualified service technicians should make any changes to this equipment.
Follow these pre-cautions to prevent damage to the P.C. boards:
Before handling any P.C. boards, you need to be properly grounded to prevent
static damage to the components of the board. A Static Cuff MUST be worn and
properly grounded using an alligator clip. Electrical conduit or a water pipe is
normally sufficient when a known good ground is not available. Care should be
taken to ensure that the alligator clip contacts with bare metal surface.
When removing quick disconnects terminals, DO NOT pull on wire itself as damage
to the connection may occur. Hold down the P.C. board with one hand and use an
upward force with a slight rocking motion to remove the terminals.
Before installing any P.C. boards, ensure that all insulators are in place.

SensO2 Alarm Indicators

 DANGER
To prevent electrical shock, ALWAYS disconnect concentrator from electrical out-
let before servicing.

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 21.1 and FIGURE 21.2 on page 85.

Operation
The Platinum with SensO2 Concentrator is equipped with an oxygen purity indicator. 
This feature monitors the purity level of the oxygen generated by the concentrator. If 
purity falls below alarm thresholds, indicator lights on the control panel will illuminate. 
NOTE: Concentrator may be used during the initial start warm‐up time (approximately 30 
minutes) while waiting for the O2 purity to reach maximum.
When the unit is turned on, the GREEN light will come on (SYSTEM OK/O2 greater than  

85%). After five minutes, the oxygen sensor will be operating normally and will control 
the indicator lights depending on oxygen concentration values. The explanation of the 
indicator light functions are as follows:

SECTION 22—TIMING

SECTION 22—TIMING

Timing the Platinum 5, XL, and 10 Concentrators


 DANGER
To prevent electrical shock, ALWAYS disconnect concentrator from electrical
outlet before servicing.
Use extreme care when making adjustments to the timing switch. DO NOT allow
screwdriver or your hands to contact the P.C. Board when unit is plugged in and/or
on. Turn unit off and unplug before adjusting timing switch. Electrical shock is
possible.

To accommodate the varying tolerances when replacing components, an adjustable timer 
is used to control the shift time of the pressure equalization (P.E.) valve. The SensO2 board 
allows for automatic (microprocessor controlled) adjustments of the P.E. shift times. Non‐
SensO2 boards allow for manual adjustment.
 

Autotuning
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 22.1.
1. Turn power off (/O)  and unplug the unit. 
2. Remove cabinet. Refer to Removing Cabinet on page 25.
3. Plug the unit in and turn the power on (I) .
4. Wait for the main valve shift to indicate one of the following:
• If the board is new, the front panel RED indicator light will slowly blink, indicating 
autotune has initiated.
• If the board is used and has performed autotuning before, press and release the 
small push button switch near the pressure sensor.
• The front panel RED indicator light will slowly blink, indicating the unit is 
autotuning and automatically adjusting the P.E. valve timing.
5. Set the output flow to 5.0 L/min. for 5 liter models and 10 L/min. for 10 liter model 
during autotuning.
6. The GREEN (onboard) diagnostic light will flash the current value of the P.E. valve 
timing number.
7. Place the cover back on the unit but DO NOT install the cover screws. Let the unit run 
until autotuning is completed.
8. When autotuning is complete, the RED front panel indicator light will change from a 
slow blinking to a flashing of the final P.E. valve timing number.

Platinum™Series 86 Part No 1110538


SECTION 22—TIMING

9. Turn the unit off and then back on. The timing value is stored in memory for future 
use. 
10. If the unit is turned off before an autotune cycle is completed, the P.E. valve timing 
will not be stored or updated. If the board is new, autotuning MUST be successfully 
completed before the unit can be placed into service.
11. After a successful autotune, run the unit for 30 minutes and verify that the oxygen 
concentration output of the unit is within specification.

Part No 1148070 11 Perfecto2™


SECTION 8—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

SECTION 8—INSTALLATION/
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

Verification of Battery Free Power Loss Alarm


Check the Perfecto2 concentrator for proper operating conditions.
1. If the unit has been in below-freezing temperatures, allow it to warm up to room
temperature before operating.
2. The concentrator may need to be turned on for four to five seconds to charge the
Battery Free Power Loss Alarm. Connect power cord to outlet and turn the
concentrator on. Turn flow control knob counterclockwise and flow will begin
IMMEDIATELY. Set flow rate to five L/min. Let the unit run for 30 minutes, then turn
unit off.
3. Unplug the power cord and press On/Off ( I/O ) switch to the On (I/) position. An
intermittent audible alarm will sound. This confirms proper operation of the Battery
Free Power Loss Alarm. Turn On/Off switch Off (O ).
4. Connect power cord to outlet and turn on concentrator. Unit will beep on start-up.
5. Check the oxygen concentration per specifications after 30-40 minutes running time.

Sequence of Operation
Turning On (I/) the power switch applies 120 VAC to the compressor motor, hour meter,
transformer, cooling fan and the printed circuit (P.C.) board.
Room air enters the compressor via the cabinet filter and the compressor inlet filter. The
air is compressed by the wobble pistons in the compressor to a pressure of 21 p.s.i. (144.79
kPa).
As increased pressure creates increased temperature, a heat exchanger is used to lower
the temperature before the air enters the 4-way valve. It is then channeled to a sieve bed
containing the adsorption material. Restriction downstream of the sieve bed causes
pressure to build up inside the sieve bed which is necessary for the adsorption process. A
small amount of relatively pure oxygen enters the top of the second bed through a
restrictive leak in the pressure equalization (P.E.) valve with the balance entering a storage
tank. The nitrogen removed is exhausted back from the bed through the 4-way valve into
room air. A muffler is located at the exhaust end of the valve to muffle the sound of the
exhaust as it exits the concentrator.
The oxygen not being used to exhaust is channeled into the storage tank. The pressurized
oxygen is regulated down to five p.s.i. (34.4 kPa), enters an accurate flow-measuring
device, flows through Outlet HEPA filter and check valve, then out to the patient.

Perfecto2™ 12 Part No 1148070


SECTION 8—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

The electrical activation of the 4-way Valve is accomplished every 8 to 15 seconds by the
pressure sensor and P.C. Board electronics when the pressure reaches a set point of 21
p.s.i. (144.79 kPa) output flows 4 L/min and above or 16 p.s.i. (110.32 kPa) output flows 3
L/min and below. The time between cycles is dependent on altitude, flow rate and internal
environmental factors.
A P.E. valve opens just prior to the shift of the 4-way valve. This allows highly
concentrated oxygen to enter the just exhausted bed from the top. This additional
pressure allows the bed to start its cycle at a higher pressure. The P.E. valve will close just
after the shift of the 4-way valve.
If main power is lost, the Battery Free Power Loss Alarm will sound a short ʺBEEPʺ, with
a long pause after. All units are equipped with a diagnostic alarm system that signals if
the pneumatic pressure or electrical systems malfunction. The troubleshooting guide in
this manual explains the alarm system signals and reasons, in detail. Refer to
Troubleshooting on page 16.

SensO2 Oxygen Sensor Technology - Ceramic Zirconia


Sensor

Technical Description
The oxygen being produced by the concentrator flows out of the product tank and into
the flowmeter. A small flow of oxygen produced by the unit is sent through a precision
orifice to the oxygen sensor mounted on the printed circuit board.
As the oxygen enters the sensor, it passes through a screen and contacts the sensing disk.
Electric current flowing through a metal film resistor heats the disk in excess of 300° C.
Oxygen molecules contact the electrode of the disk and pick-up extra electrons to become
oxygen ions. These oxygen ions are attracted to the electrode on the bottom of the zirconia
sensing disk. Because of the crystal structure of the zirconia, only oxygen ions can pass
through. When the oxygen ions reach the bottom electrode, the extra electrons are
released from the oxygen ions and oxygen molecules return to the air. The number of
electrons is directly related to the oxygen concentration. The electrons travel to the P.C.
board where they are counted and the oxygen concentration reading is calculated.
A microprocessor on the P.C. board contains software that interprets the signal being
received from the sensor. It compares the signal to clinically acceptable limits. Signals
outside of the clinically acceptable limits generate responses in the form of lights, audible
indicators, and/or system shut-down.

Operating Sequence
Once the power switch has been turned on (I/), the SensO2 circuit will wait five minutes
for the concentrator to begin producing clinically acceptable oxygen and the oxygen
sensor to stabilize. The GREEN light will illuminate (indicating normal system operation)
while the oxygen sensor is warming up.

Part No 1148070 13 Perfecto2™


SECTION 8—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

After five minutes, if the oxygen purity exceeds 85% ± 2%, the GREEN light will continue
to illuminate.
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% after the first five minutes, the system will
continue to monitor the O2 and wait for a maximum of 30 minutes from start-up to reach
85% ± 2% before activating an alarm. Environmental factors such as low voltage, high
altitude, or age of the machine will affect the time required to reach 85% ± 2%.
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% within the first 30 minutes, the oxygen
concentration alarm sequence will activate and the unit will shut down.
When oxygen concentration is above 85% ± 2%, the sensor measures oxygen purity every
10 minutes. If a reading falls below 85% ± 2%, a YELLOW light will illuminate. If the
oxygen purity falls below 73% ± 3% the RED light/Alarm/Shut-Down mode will activate.

SECTION 29—LEAK TEST

4 Way Valve Function Test


NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 29.1 on page 78.
The 4-way valve used in the Perfecto2 Series Concentrators does have an acceptable
tolerance of leakage per RexRoth®.
By nature of the valve design it is possible for the valve to experience small leaks, and still
operate without affecting the overall performance of the unit. The valve is assembled
where the components that make up the valve “Snap” together. The only screws in the
valve are for securing the valve to the manifold assembly.
According to RexRoth there is an acceptable leak specification of 60 cc per minute at 20
psi on each valve. Valves that have leaks within this specification will function properly
without any adverse effects to the performance of the concentrator. A leak in the amount
of 60 cc or less would be indicative of the type of small leak you would notice where the
end caps connect to the main body or where the three pieces of the main body connect
together. A 60 cc leak would not be noticeable when examining the system pressure
swings.
Leaks greater than 60 cc are indicative of cracks in the end caps, or a blown seal where the
end cap connects to the main body of the valve. These leaks are detected by either reading
the system swing pressures, noticing two consecutive swings not being equal or by
hearing an audible leak every other cycle. Leaks of this extreme nature indicate the valve
needs to be replaced.
Valves should only need to be replaced when the following conditions exist:
1. A visible crack is noted on either of the end caps or main body of the 4 way valve,
regardless of the amount of leak.
2. A large leak is present on the valve that causes an imbalance in the sieve bed swing
pressures. Example: Sieve Bed 1 pressure swings from 14 psi to 16 psi, within 7-20
seconds and Sieve Bed 2 pressure swings from 13 psi to 16 psi slowly, and may take as
long as 25-30 seconds before shifting (times over 30 second will shut down
automatically).
3. Valve will not shift and the pilot valve solenoid and circuit board are working
properly.
NOTE: The concentrator’s P.C.B. should exhibit an error code for High Pressure Failure (1 Red/
2 Green).
NOTE: The best method to test the 4-way valve operation is by measuring the unit pressure
swings. This can easily be done at the Homefill port with a 0-30 psi pressure gauge and a ¼” fill
line adapter. Upon starting the unit should build pressure up to 16 psi for output flows 3 L/min
and below or 21 psi for output flows 4 L/min and above before its initial shift. After the initial shift
the unit should shift consistently in equal amounts of time +/- 1 second (time recorded in seconds).

Check each end cap


for cracks and for

Part No 1150748 7 XPO2™
SECTION 1—IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Radio Frequency Interference


This equipment has been tested and found to comply with EMC limits specified by IEC/
EN 60601-1-2. These limits are designed to provide a reasonable protection against
electromagnetic interference in a typical medical installation.
Other devices may experience interference from even the low levels of electromagnetic
emissions permitted by the above standards. To determine if the emissions from the XPO2
are causing the interference, turn the XPO2 Off. If the interference with the other device(s)
stops, then the XPO2 is causing the interference. In such rare cases, interference may be
reduced or corrected by one of the following measures:
• Reposition, relocate, or increase the separation between the equipment.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
other device(s) is connected.

SECTION 3—CHECKING O2 PURITY

SECTION 3—CHECKING O2 PURITY


NOTE: Although the XPO2 offers pulse dose only, the oxygen purity can be checked with a hand
held oxygen analyzer.
NOTE: Oxygen purity should be checked every 4,320 hours.
1. Turn the unit On.
2. Press the “+” button to increase the flow to setting 5.
3. Simultaneously press and hold the “+” and “battery gauge” buttons until the #5 BLUE
indicator light blinks. This is your indication that the unit is now in auto-pulse mode.
NOTE: The unit will remain in auto-pulse mode until it is set to a lower flow setting or is turned
off.
4. Connect a standard hand held oxygen analyzer to the outlet port.
5. Follow the directions provided by the analyzer manufacturer. Some analyzers will
also measure flow and pressure, but only if connected to a continuous flow of oxygen
(so these options are not usable on this pulse only unit).
NOTE: The purity reading may fluctuate slightly due to the pulse flow. It is recommended that you
record a high and a low over a 60 second time period. The XPO2 is functioning properly when the
purity levels are above 87%, after the 5 minute warm-up period.

XPO2™ 14 Part No 1150748


SECTION 4—ERROR CODES

SECTION 4—ERROR CODES


The XPO2 has dozens of alarms that are being monitored on a continuous basis. The
alarms are grouped into four main categories:
• Common Alarms: These are alarms for which the patient, or the provider, can take
action to eliminate the issue. These alarms, and the corrective steps, are fully
explained within the Owner’s Manual (OM).
• Operating Alarms: This alarm group centers on the sieve beds and the PSA
process. These are alarms for which there is no corrective action available to either
the patient or the provider. However, there are sub-codes that can be accessed to
help the Invacare service and repair centers.
• Compressor Alarms: This alarm group centers on the compressor operation. These
are alarms for which there is no corrective action available to either the patient or
the provider. However, there are sub-codes that can be accessed to help the
Invacare service and repair centers.
• System Alarms: This alarm group centers on internal software monitors. These are
alarms for which there is no corrective action available to either the patient or the
provider (*). However, there are sub-codes that can be accessed to help the
Invacare service and repair centers.
To access the Sub-Alarm codes, the unit first has to be in an alarm condition with multiple
flow level LEDs illuminated. While in this condition, the Plus (+) and Minus (-) flow
setting buttons should be pushed and held. As long as both these buttons are being
pushed, a different set of flow LEDs will illuminate. This alternate set of illuminated LEDs
is the sub-alarm code. Once the Plus and Minus buttons are released, the original alarm
code will return. Once the unit is turned off, the alarm codes displays will be reset. All the
alarms should be reset and the unit turned back on to see if the unit can self-correct the
problem. If the alarms persist, please contact your nearest Invacare repair center.

Part No 1100873 8 HomeFill™II Compressor


SECTION 1—IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT allow oil from your hands or other sources to come


into contact with the compressor coupling or bottle fittings.
These substances may become flammable in the presence of
oxygen and cause injury. Avoid touching the bottle fitting
whenever possible. Example of items to avoid are hand
creams or lotions, cooking oils, suntan oils or sunblocks and
similar oily products. If you use these types of products
Invacare suggests you wash your hands prior to using the
HomeFill unit. If the bottle fitting should come in contact with
such substances it should be cleaned off with a damp cloth
prior to connecting it to the compressor.
NEVER oil or lubricate the compressor coupler or bottle
fittings. NEVER use any penetrating oil or lubricant such as
WD-40 or 3 in One. If connection difficulty is experienced
verify that the bottle fitting is being inserted straight down
into the compressor coupler. If continued difficulty is
experienced contact your supplier for assistance.
Before moving or repositioning either the compressor or
concentrator, ALWAYS push the power switch to the Off (O)
position, disconnect the AC power cord and the interconnect
hose between the compressor and concentrator. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the unit or personal injury.
