What is a Liquid Oxygen System?

All liquid oxygen systems consist of two essential components – the reservoir and the portable. A liquid oxygen system provides the oxygen user with high concentration oxygen and does not require any electricity.

A liquid oxygen reservoir is a larger tank, usually weighing over 55 kg (120 lbs.) and standing over 0.75 m (30 in) in height. The reservoir typically sits stationary in an oxygen user’s home environment and contains actual liquid oxygen. The primary function of the reservoir is to fill the liquid oxygen portable units for an oxygen user to utilize while being active or away from home. Also, the oxygen user can breathe continuous flow directly from the reservoir, or as an emergency source of oxygen is needed in the event of a power outage when the user also utilizes an oxygen concentrator. Because the reservoir holds oxygen, its contents will deplete as it is used. Your oxygen provider will either refill or exchange your reservoir every few weeks to ensure you always have a sufficient source of oxygen.

The liquid oxygen portable unit is to be used for portability and time away from home. They are easily carried by a handle, shoulder strap, bag, or backpack. The oxygen user fills their own portable unit from the reservoir. The filling process is simple and quick. Liquid oxygen portables provided extended durations in much smaller packages compared to traditional oxygen cylinders. They give oxygen users ultimate freedom with lengthy durations away from home.
