Frequently asked questions
How much will it add to my electricity bill?
The 525DS draws about 310 W on average, dropping to roughly 275 W at 2.5 LPM or below. Running continuously, that is in the region of 7 kWh a day — noticeably less than most high-flow machines.
Is it quiet enough to sleep next to?
At 48 dBA it sits between a quiet library and a normal conversation. Most users run it in the bedroom with a length of extension tubing so the machine itself is a few metres from the bed.
What is the OSD and why does it matter?
The Oxygen Sensing Device continuously checks the oxygen concentration being produced and alerts you if purity drops below specification, rather than letting a degrading machine quietly under-deliver.
Do I need 5 litres or 10?
Go by your prescribed flow rate. Most home prescriptions fall at or below 5 LPM. If yours is higher, or two people need to run from one machine, look at the DeVilbiss Compact 10 litre.
What maintenance does it need?
Rinse and dry the cabinet filter weekly and have the unit serviced periodically. Oxymed services and repairs DeVilbiss concentrators in-house and stocks consumables such as cannulas and tubing.
Do I need a prescription?
Supplemental oxygen should be used at the flow rate prescribed by your doctor. Speak to your treating doctor or pulmonologist before starting or changing oxygen therapy.
