Device description
The Next Generation Portable Therapeutic Liquid Oxygen System (NPTLOX) is a low pressure portable 20.0 liter liquid oxygen storage and gaseous delivery system, capable of supplying up to 17,200 gaseous liters of oxygen at a maximum flow rate of 66 liters per minute at 50 psig. The unit features six quick disconnect outlet ports and comes with an accessory kit containing three 20 foot medical grade hoses, three flow control valves, three humidifier bottles and three quick disconnect adapters. The three flow control valves can deliver oxygen to three patients at flow rates from .5 to 15 liters per minute. The quick disconnect outlet ports can also supply 50 psi of oxygen to other medical devices or to oxygen regulators for additional patients. Weighing less than 150 pounds when full, the NPTLOX can be carried by two ground support personnel or mounted in an aircraft. The NPTLOX requires no external power and uses just two 9-Volt batteries for the quantity indicator. The system has been tested to MIL-STD-810.
An empty device designed as a portable, supplemental, refillable container intended as a storage for liquid oxygen (LOX) and its conversion into gaseous form for delivery of medical oxygen (O2) at various pulsed or fixed flow settings to a patient who typically has difficulty extracting O2 from the atmosphere. It typically consists of a cryogenic canister containing the LOX, a mechanism (e.g., a warming coil) where the LOX is converted into gas, a gas delivery control device (e.g., demand valve or fixed flow mechanism) that regulates the flow of O2 to the patient, a fill port and an outlet connection for connection of a nasal cannula or face mask.
