As the supplier explains, portable oxygen concentrators are highly versatile, lightweight alternatives to oxygen tanks, delivering a reliable flow of oxygen by filtering other gases out of the air. These devices are highly portable, but may offer tradeoffs in terms of weight, bulk, and overall utility, leading Main Clinic Supply to publish this guide.

Patients may wish to consider several criteria when deciding on a portable oxygen concentrator, the guide states, especially if one wishes to use the device during air travel. Not all concentrators are FAA-approved, and the organization has laid out fairly rigorous guidelines prohibiting a number of leading options.

Beyond FAA approval, the guide highlights the fact that many concentrators can be extremely noisy when in operation, ranging from 35 to as high as 50 dBa, which, in a confined space like an aircraft, can be potentially problematic. Not all models have this flaw, although quieter models may sacrifice airflow and efficiency as compensation.

For long flights, the guide emphasizes battery life as a key consideration. Some models highlighted within may only last 5 hours, while others can exceed 13 hours of continuous operation. Whether that level of battery life is a necessary luxury will depend on the individual and whether or not they are willing and able to handle the additional weight associated with a larger battery.

One area where portable oxygen concentrators are consistent across models is in the price point, as Main Clinic Supply points out. Models range from around $2,700 to just over $3,000, though as they indicate, even lower-end models can provide adequate performance in most situations.

All models highlighted in the guide are available through the Main Clinic Supply online store and were hand-selected by their expert team for evaluation in the guide. Those interested in a more in-depth comparison between the 5 leading options should visit the link below.
