2. Oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_concentrator

   An oxygen concentrator is a device that concentrates the oxygen from a gas supply (typically ambient air) by selectively removing nitrogen to supply an oxygen-enriched product gas stream. They are used industrially, to provide supplemental oxygen at high altitudes, and as medical devices for oxygen therapy .

3. High altitude breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   There are different aviation oxygen systems and delivery methods available depending on the specific application. The oxygen source may be chemical oxygen generators, high pressure portable gaseous oxygen storage systems (gas cylinders), on-board oxygen generating systems (oxygen concentrators), or liquid oxygen systems.

4. Portable oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_oxygen_concentrator

   Portable oxygen concentrator used with bottle humidifier POCs operate on the same principle as a home concentrator, pressure swing adsorption . [ 6 ] The basic set up of a POC is a miniaturized air compressor , a cylinder filled containing the sieve, a pressure equalizing reservoir and valves and tubes.

5. Self-contained breathing apparatus - Wikipedia

   Uses compressed oxygen. Uses an oxygen-generating solid. This involves a chemical reaction between potassium superoxide with exhaled water and carbon dioxide. A chlorate candle has to be struck to start the device. To reduce pressure buildup from use, a pressure-relief valve with saliva trap is included.

6. Chemical oxygen generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_generator

   A chlorate candle, or an oxygen candle, is a cylindrical chemical oxygen generator that contains a mix of sodium chlorate and iron powder, which when ignited smolders at about 600 °C (1,100 °F), producing sodium chloride, iron oxide, and oxygen at a fixed rate of about 6.5 man-hours per kilogram of the mixture. The mixture has an indefinite ...

9. Anaesthetic machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaesthetic_machine

   In essence, the nitrous-oxide regulator is a 'slave' of the oxygen regulator. i.e., if oxygen pressure is lost then the other gases can not flow past their regulator. hypoxic-mixture alarms (hypoxy guards or ratio controllers) to prevent gas mixtures which contain less than 21–25% oxygen being delivered to the patient. In modern machines it ...
