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.
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.

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.

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.
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).
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).

SECTION 1—IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS contains important information for the safe
operation and use of this product. DO NOT use this product or any available
optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these
instructions and any additional instructional material such as Owner’s Manuals,
Service Manuals or Instruction Sheets supplied with this product or optional
equipment. If you are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions or Instructions,
contact a healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel before attempting
to use this equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
Important Safeguards
The use of oxygen therapy requires that special care be taken to reduce the risk of fire. Any
materials that will burn in air, and some that will not, are easily ignited and burn rapidly
in high concentrations of oxygen. For safety concerns, keep all sources of ignition out of
the room in which this product is located and away from areas where oxygen is being
delivered. Textiles, oil and other combustibles are easily ignited and will burn with great
intensity in oxygen‐enriched air. NO SMOKING signs should be prominently displayed.
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or greasy substances come in
contact with oxygen under pressure. These substances MUST be kept away from the
oxygen concentrator, tubing and connections, and all other oxygen equipment. DO NOT
use any lubricants unless recommended by Invacare.
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each concentrator be on and
running for a minimum of 30 minutes at a time. Shorter periods of operation may be
harmful for maximum product life.
Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit away from heated or hot surfaces, including space
heaters, electric blankets, stoves and similar electrical appliances.
DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the power cord.
NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening.
NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a soft surface, such as a bed
or couch, where the air opening may be blocked. Keep the openings free from lint, hair
and the like.
Fill humidifier with water to the level shown by the manufacturer. DO NOT overfill.
Invacare recommends that Crush‐Proof oxygen tubing be used with this product and
NOT exceed 50 ft. (15.2m) in length. Recommended use for Platinum 10 is up to 50 ft. in
length of high flow tubing.
Maintenance
The Platinum Oxygen Concentrator was specifically designed to minimize routine
preventive maintenance. Only professionals of the healthcare field or persons fully
conversant with this process, such as authorized or factory trained personnel, should
perform preventive maintenance or performance adjustments on the oxygen
concentrator.
SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
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.
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.
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.

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.
WARNING
DO NOT remove sensor tubing from P.C. Board. Remove from tee fitting or
regulator ONLY. Damage to sensor assembly could occur. A faulty sensor may
result in improper oxygen delivery and harm to the user.

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:
Indicator Lights
NOTE: Indicator lights are visible only when lit.
GREEN light (O2) ‐ Normal Operation.
YELLOW light ( )‐ Call supplier IMMEDIATELY. You may continue to use the
concentrator unless instructed otherwise by your supplier. Be certain that backup oxygen

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.
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.

SAFEGUARDS
Important Safeguards
In order to ensure the safe installation, assembly and operation of the Perfecto2
concentrator these instructions MUST be followed.
CAUTION
“Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale or rental by or on order of a physician,
or any other practitioner licensed by the law of the State in which he/she practices to use
or order the use of this device.”
DANGER
The use of oxygen therapy requires that special care be taken to reduce the risk of fire.
Any materials that will burn in air, and some that will not, are easily ignited and burn
rapidly in high concentrations of oxygen. For safety concerns, it is necessary that all
sources of ignition be kept away from the product and out of the room in which it is being
used. NO SMOKING signs should be prominently displayed.
WARNING
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or greasy substances come in
contact with oxygen under pressure. These substances MUST be kept away from the
oxygen concentrator, tubing and connections, and all other oxygen equipment. DO NOT
use any lubricants unless recommended by Invacare.
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each concentrator be on and
running for a minimum of 30 minutes at a time. Shorter periods of operation may reduce
maximum product life.
If the concentrator has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been
dropped or damaged, or dropped into water, call qualified technician for examination
and repair.
Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit away from heated or hot surfaces, including space
heaters, blankets, stoves and similar electrical appliances.
DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the cord.
NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening.
NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a soft surface, such as a bed
or couch, where the air opening may be blocked. Keep the openings free from lint, hair
and the like. Fill humidifier with water to the level shown by the manufacturer. DO NOT
overfill.
Keep unit at least three inches away from walls, draperies, furniture, and the like.
WARNING
Invacare recommends that Crush-Proof oxygen tubing be used with this product and not
exceed 50 ft. (15.2m) in length.
SECTION 8—INSTALLATION/
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
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.
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.
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.
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.

CAUTION
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.
