Live Active Five® Portable Oxygen Concentrator

About Your Live Active Five Portable Oxygen Concentrator (POC)

The Live Active Five POC uses a molecular sieve and vacuum pressure swing adsorption methodology to produce the oxygen gas output. Ambient air enters the device, is filtered and then compressed. This compressed air is then directed into nitrogen adsorbing sieve beds. Concentrated oxygen exits the opposite end of the sieve bed and is directed into an oxygen reservoir from which it is delivered to the user.

The oxygen purity level of the output gas ranges from 87% to 95.5%. The oxygen is delivered to the user through the use of a nasal cannula. A pulse dose delivery method is used. The device detects the start of user inhalation and delivers a measured pulse of oxygen. No further oxygen is delivered until the next user inhalation is detected. The volume of oxygen delivered each minute is a fixed amount based on the selected pulse flow setting. The volume of each oxygen pulse will vary with the user’s breath rate such that the fixed minute volume is maintained.

Less Anxiety

Each lithium-ion battery packs more than 6 hours of runtime! The simple, top-loading design of the Live Active Five allows you to quickly change the battery while the device is still in the carry bag. We purposely designed it so you can conveniently extend your battery life as needed without having to carry the extra weight of a double battery.

Carry Bag

The Live Active Five comes with a custom-designed carry bag that allows you to comfortably wear the device on either side of the body or as a cross body. This dual curve design keeps the nasal cannula in place, and the bag’s smart strap prevents it from accidentally unhooking from the oxygen outlet. No matter how you choose to wear the Live Active Five, the custom carry bag always keeps the unit’s screen and cannula front-facing. The carry bag strap has a soft padded cushion that makes the bag feel lighter while carrying and helps ease back and shoulder pain.

The Difference is...

This portable oxygen concentrator has a built-in Concentrator Performance Information (CPI) Technology that helps to easily identify unit problems that may occur in its lifetime. This technology, powered by Bluetooth, tracks unit activity which can then be analyzed by Precision Medical for direct support from the manufacturer.
