DeVilbiss 5L Oxygen Concentrator for Home Oxygen Therapy

The DeVilbiss 525DS 5L Oxygen Concentrator is a stationary continuous-flow oxygen concentrator designed for prescribed home oxygen therapy. It provides an adjustable flow range of 0.5 to 5 liters per minute (LPM) in a durable, straightforward stationary design.

The 525DS features patented DeVilbiss Turn-Down Technology, which is designed to reduce power consumption and minimize wear on internal components when operating at lower flow settings. The built-in DeVilbiss OSD® Oxygen Sensing Device monitors the oxygen produced by the concentrator, while audible and visual alarms help alert users to operating conditions that require attention.

At approximately 36 lbs. and measuring 24.5" H × 13.5" W × 12" D, the DeVilbiss 5L combines continuous-flow oxygen capability with accessible controls, a protected cannula fitting, and a recessed humidifier area for everyday stationary home use.

Who Is the DeVilbiss 525DS For?

The DeVilbiss 525DS is designed for individuals who have been prescribed stationary continuous-flow oxygen therapy within the concentrator's operating range.

It may be considered when:

• A prescription requires continuous-flow stationary oxygen

• Prescribed flow requirements fall within the unit's rated range

• Replacing an existing 5-liter stationary oxygen concentrator

• A home oxygen system with built-in oxygen monitoring is desired

• Compatible transfill capability is part of the patient's existing equipment requirements

The appropriate oxygen flow rate is determined by the patient's healthcare provider. Do not change a prescribed oxygen flow rate without instructions from the prescribing clinician.

5L vs. 10L Oxygen Concentrators

One of the most important considerations when comparing stationary oxygen concentrators is the patient's prescribed flow requirement.

The DeVilbiss 525DS provides continuous flow from 0.5–5 LPM. A 10L stationary concentrator provides a higher maximum flow capacity for prescriptions requiring oxygen delivery beyond the range of a 5L unit.

A higher-capacity concentrator is not automatically the better choice. Equipment should be selected according to the patient's prescription and required equipment specifications.

Specifications

Continuous-Flow Oxygen Up to 5 LPM

The DeVilbiss 525DS provides adjustable continuous-flow oxygen from 0.5 to 5 LPM.

Drive specifies oxygen concentration of 87%–96% from 1–5 LPM. The patient's oxygen setting should always follow the prescribed flow rate provided by their healthcare professional.

The 525DS is a stationary oxygen concentrator intended for stationary use rather than a portable oxygen concentrator designed to travel with the user.

DeVilbiss OSD® Oxygen Monitoring & Safety Alarms

The DeVilbiss OSD® Oxygen Sensing Device is standard on the 525DS and monitors the oxygen produced by the concentrator.

The unit also includes audible and visual alarms for operating conditions including:

• High pressure

• Low pressure

• Low flow

• Low oxygen

• Power failure

• Oxygen Sensing Device status

These monitoring features help patients and caregivers identify when the concentrator requires attention.

DeVilbiss Turn-Down Technology

One of the distinguishing features of the 525DS is patented DeVilbiss Turn-Down Technology.

Turn-Down Technology is designed to reduce power consumption and minimize wear on internal components when the concentrator is operating at lower oxygen-flow settings.

Average power consumption is approximately 310 watts, decreasing to approximately 275 watts when operating at 1.2 LPM or below.

This represents a reduction of more than 10% compared with the unit's listed average power consumption while operating in the lower-flow range.

Compact Stationary Design

The DeVilbiss 525DS measures approximately:

• 24.5" high

• 13.5" wide

• 12" deep

• 36 lbs.

The cabinet incorporates accessible patient controls along with a protected cannula fitting and recessed humidifier area.

These features help protect frequently used connections and accessories during everyday stationary use.

Humidifier Bottle Compatibility

The cabinet includes a recessed humidifier nook designed to help protect a compatible humidifier bottle when one is used as part of the patient's oxygen setup.

A humidifier bottle should not be assumed to be included with the concentrator unless specifically stated as part of the configuration being purchased.

If you're unsure which humidifier supplies are compatible with your DeVilbiss concentrator, contact State Medical Equipment before ordering.

Transfill Compatibility

The DeVilbiss 525 Series supports compatible transfill equipment for oxygen cylinder filling applications.

Available components include:

• 525DD-650 Transfill Caddy / Rack System

• PF1100TUB Transfill Connection Tubing

The Transfill Caddy uses a steel frame with an 18" × 14" shelf rated to support up to 40 lbs.

Transfill equipment is sold separately and is not included with the standard 525DS concentrator.

Confirm all required equipment and compatibility before purchasing or using a transfill setup.

Compatible Accessories & Replacement Parts

Drive Medical identifies several accessories and replacement components for the DeVilbiss 525DS, including:

• Transfill Caddy / Rack System

• Transfill connection tubing

• Low-output flow meter package

• Cabinet air filters

• Extended-life intake bacteria filter

• Final bacteria filter

Accessories and replacement components are sold separately unless specifically stated as included with the concentrator being purchased.
