Oxygen cylinder systems for professional applications: This category brings together complete and partially configured systems with medical oxygen for medical practices, clinics, emergency services and healthcare facilities. The focus is on cylinder-based solutions, not oxygen concentrators.
Depending on the configuration, a system may consist of an oxygen cylinder, pressure regulator and patient interface, with optional additions such as a bag, trolley or other emergency equipment. Not every system includes all components, so the product-specific scope of delivery is authoritative.
What should you know about “Compact and stationary solutions”?
Compact systems with smaller cylinders are particularly suitable for mobile emergency equipment. Larger cylinders and stationary stands provide a larger oxygen reserve or organized provision within a practice or facility. Important criteria include the required oxygen reserve, intended flow, weight, transport requirements and existing equipment.
Complete system or complement existing components?
If a suitable oxygen cylinder or compatible pressure regulator is already available, adding only the required components may be more appropriate than purchasing a complete set. Preconfigured cylinder systems with masks are also available under oxygen device with mask. For stationary provision, see our oxygen stands; dedicated emergency equipment is available under emergency systems.
What should you know about “Shelf life and technical inspection”?
Medical oxygen has a shelf life of 35 months from filling; the use-by date shown on the cylinder is authoritative. Technical inspection of the pressure cylinder is carried out according to the applicable inspection intervals and is separate from the shelf life of the gas content.
What should you know about “Choose oxygen concentrators separately”?
Electrical devices that concentrate oxygen from ambient air are a different system type. These are available under oxygen concentrators. For an overall selection guide, see oxygen systems & devices.
