The iGo portable oxygen concentrator is small and
lightweight, yet capable of delivering up to 3lpm of
constant flow oxygen meeting the oxygen requirements for
most users.
An ideal choice for travelling, the iGo can be operated from
a standard 12 V car charger socket or from its lithium ion
battery. The iGo comes complete with a battery, AC power
adapter, mains lead and DC power adapter. The iGo can be
transported using a wheeled carry case for added
portability.
The iGo includes the DeVilbiss Oxygen Sensing Device and
service alerts to give peace of mind that the iGo is
delivering exactly what is required.
- Small and lightweight, yet capable of
delivering up to 3lpm of constant flow
oxygen and up to 6lpm (equivalent) of pulsed
oxygen
- Uses PulseDose technology
- Comes complete with a wheeled trolley,
rechargeable lithium ion battery, AC and DC
adapter and mains lead.
- The iGo can be operated from a standard
12 V car charger socket
- Variable flow rate up to 6 l/min at 91%
± 3%
- OSD Sensor for continuously monitoring
oxygen levels.
- Visual and audible alarms for low Oxygen
levels, power failure and service required.
- Other than cleaning the gross particle
filter, preventative maintenance is reduced
as the iGo does not require manufacturers
servicing for the first three years.
- Ideal for travel as the iGo is approved
for use onboard an aircraft.
- High oxygen concentration levels across
the whole flow range.
- Wheeled trolley makes the iGo easy to
manoeuvre
- Available with either a wheeled trolley
or a detachable cart - both come with an
accessory bag

- How long will
the iGo battery pack operate
the unit?
The actual run time of the
iGo on the internal battery
pack depends on several
factors, including flow
rate, breath rate, altitude,
temperature and the age of
the battery pack. Please see
the Features section for the
battery run-time estimates.
- Will the run
time of the iGo battery pack
change?
Yes. As lithium ion
batteries age, the duration
of operation will decline.
The iGo battery pack may
operate at as low as 80% of
its usual life when it was
new.
- Can I use an
external charger to charge
the iGo battery pack?
Not at this time. An
external charger will be
available as an accessory in
the future.
- Can I use the
iGo in a different carrying
case?
No. iGo can only be used
inside an approved DeVilbiss
carrying case. Approved
carrying cases have proper
ventilation screens to
provide adequate airflow for
operation and cooling.
- My iGo is
plugged into an AC wall
outlet, but the battery is
not charging. Why is this?
If the battery is too hot or
too cold the iGo charge
circuit will not charge the
battery. Please allow the
battery to warm or cool to
room temperature before
charging.
- The iGo is
making noise while plugged
in even though I am not
using it. Why is this?
The internal cooling fan on
the iGo will continue to
operate while charging the
battery. This is done to
keep the battery at an
appropriate temperature and
speed up the charge time.
The fan will shut off as
soon as the battery is
charged.
- Can I use the
iGo onboard a plane?
Yes. The iGo has received
approval by the FAA for use
onboard planes. Please check
with your airline before
flying.
- Can I use the
iGo at high altitudes?
Yes. iGo can be used at
altitudes up to 13,000 feet
or 4,000 meters. The iGo
battery may not last as long
at different altitudes due
to the change in the amount
of oxygen available.
- What percentage
of oxygen does the iGo
deliver?
iGo provides 91% oxygen, +/-
3%. This purity has been
tested to be clinically
acceptable for long-term
oxygen therapy.
- Can I use a
humidifier bottle with iGo?
Yes and no. You can only use
a humidifier bottle with iGo
while in the continuous flow
mode. A humidifier bottle
cannot be used while the iGo
is set to pulse mode.
- Can I use the
iGo 24 hours per day?
Yes. iGo may be used for
continuous oxygen therapy.
- Can I use the
iGo without a battery pack?
Yes. iGo can be operated
from an external power
source if the battery pack
is not installed.
- What maintenance
is required for the iGo?
The dust filter located
inside the handle recess
should be cleaned regularly.
There is no other routine
maintenance during the first
3 years of operation.
- Can I leave iGo
plugged in continuously even
though the battery is fully
charged?
Yes. The iGo stops charging
the battery once it is full.
There is no danger in
leaving the iGo plugged in.
- How do I know
how much power remains in
the battery?
Install the battery into the
iGo, and turn the unit on
without external power
connected. The battery
status indicator will
display the amount of power
remaining.
- What happens if
the power fails while I’m
using the iGo?
If you are operating the iGo
from an external power
source and the external
power fails, the iGo will
automatically switch to the
internal battery pack (if
the battery is installed).
If the external power
resumes before the battery
is fully discharged, iGo
will automatically switch
back to external power. If
the external power does not
resume, the iGo will provide
battery status indications,
and the iGo will sound an
audible beep. The external
power light on the control
panel will blink once the
battery is fully depleted.
If there is no internal
battery pack installed, the
iGo will sound an audible
beep, and the external power
light on the control panel
will blink immediately.
- How do I know if
the iGo is set to continuous
flow?
The green light beside the
mode select button will be
lit continuously.
- How do I know if
the iGo is set to pulse
mode?
The green light beside the
mode select button will
blink each time a breath is
sensed.
- How can I tell
if the oxygen purity is
good?
As long as the green O2
light is illuminated, the
iGo is delivering the proper
purity of oxygen. If the
purity drops below the
proper level, the yellow O2
light will be illuminated.
You may continue to use the
iGo even though the yellow
light is on, but you should
quickly find an alternative
oxygen source. If the purity
continues to drop, the red
service light will
illuminate. You should
immediately find an
alternative oxygen source.
- What is the
maximum length of oxygen
tube I can use with iGo?
You may use a tubing length
of up to 35 feet (10 meters)
when in pulse mode and up to
50 feet (15 meters) while in
continuous flow mode.
