COMPANION STATIONARY UNIT

Stationary Unit Components

Become familiar with the various parts of the Stationary unit shown in

Figure 3, Figure 4, and Figure 5.

• Contents Indicator: (optional) displays the amount of liquid

oxygen remaining in the Stationary unit. The contents indicator is

visible through the top of the unit.

• Pressure Gauge: (optional) indicates the status of the pressure

inside the Stationary unit. The Stationary is at an acceptable

pressure when the needle is in the shaded region.

• Flow Control Knob: (except Low Loss) adjusts oxygen flow

from the breathing oxygen supply. Set the flow control knob to

the oxygen flow rate prescribed by your physician.

Note: Set the flow control to “0” to turn the unit off.

• Breathing Oxygen Supply: (except Low Loss) this is where you

attach a cannula or other type of breathing device for breathing

directly from the Stationary unit. You may also attach a

bubble-type humidifier to this connection before connecting the

supply tubing.
