Reliable Portable Oxygen On The Go
The iGo is a portable, lightweight, three-liter oxygen concentrator capable of using three different power sources: AC, DC, and rechargeable battery.
These DeVilbiss iGos have been subjected to extensive durability testing to guarantee reliable performance. DeVilbiss oxygen concentrators provide the ideal solution for those with an on-the-go lifestyle. These small and portable oxygen systems provide two modes: PulseDose delivery and continuous flow.
The safety and reliability of PulseDose has repeatedly proven to be effective in both clinical testing and independent tests carried out by respiratory therapists and physicians. A lot of users find that PulseDose oxygen delivery is superior to continuous flow systems because the brief oxygen "pulse" is nearly undetectable.
- 1 to 6 liters per minute (LPM) setting when in PulseDose Mode and 1 to 3 LPM when in Continuous Flow Mode.
Built-in oxygen-sensing device ensures correct oxygen delivery and decreased periodic maintenance requirements.
- Integrated PulseDose oxygen-saving technology increases use time of Portable Oxygen System, resulting in increased mobility and efficiency, as well as improved comfort.
- Audible alerts for Low Battery, Power Failure, Low Oxygen Output, No Breath Detected When in PulseDose Mode, High Flow/Low Flow, High Temperature, and Unit Malfunction.
- Increased Battery Capabilities: The iGo is powered by a battery that can last up to 5.4 hours while at 1.0 LPM in PulseDose Mode.
- Easy-to-use liter flow settings of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0.
- May be used with a 50-foot cannula/tubing while in continuous flow mode and 35-foot cannula/tubing while in PulseDose mode.
Design Features
- All the functions are strategically set in a compact structure weighing under twenty pounds including battery.
- Audible alerts for Low Battery, Power Failure, Low Oxygen Output, No Breath Detected When in PulseDose Mode, High Flow/Low Flow, High Temperature, and Unit Malfunction.
- The Control Panel was made to be easy to view whether it sits on the floor or underneath an airplane seat.
- Easy-to-view Battery Status Gauge tracks battery life.
- Easy-to-reach filter compartment.
- Three handles molded in the concentrator body.
- Quick battery-charge time. The usual time for battery recharge is 2.0 hours to 4.5 hours, depending on flow setting. The battery automatically recharges while connected to an AC power source.
- Rolling carry case with easy access openings for the cannula and the external power supply.
- If the product is functioning on AC power when the power is interrupted, iGo will switch automatically to battery operation.
- Three-year limited warranty comes with the iGo Portable Oxygen System.
- One-year limited warranty comes with the battery.

How long can the battery pack of the iGo operate?
The run time on the iGo battery pack is dependent on a variety of factors, such as flow rate, altitude, breath rate, temperature, as well as the pack’s age. The following are the run-time estimations for a new and fully charged pack:
| Setting |
Continuous Flow |
PulseDose
(20 BPM) |
| 1.0 |
4.0 hours |
5.4 hours |
| 2.0 |
2.4 hours |
4.7 hours |
| 3.0 |
1.6 hours |
4.0 hours |
| 4.0 |
- |
3.5 hours |
| 5.0 |

3.2 hours |
| 6.0 |
- |
3.0 hours |
How long will the battery pack last?
iGo employs a lithium ion battery pack. Lithium ion batteries usually last about 300 charge cycles.
Can the battery pack run time decrease?
Yes. As the batteries age, battery pack duration will decrease. The battery pack might work at as little as 80 percent of its brand-new power.
Can I charge my iGo battery pack while operating the iGo in my car?
No. The iGo battery pack cannot be charged with a 12V DC power supply. This is intended to keep the iGo from drawing too much power and potentially harming the outlet fuse. If you use the iGo from a 12V DC power source, it will not use battery power, and the battery will remain charged for use.
Can I use an external charger to charge the iGo battery pack?
Not at this time. An external charger will be available as an accessory in the future.
Can I use the iGo in another carrying case?
No. The iGo can be used only inside the approved DeVilbiss case. These carrying cases feature ventilation screens that provide acceptable airflow for cooling and operation.
The iGo battery will not charge although the device is correctly plugged into the AC outlet. Why?
When the iGo battery is too cold or too hot, the charge circuit cannot function. You should let the battery warm up or cool down to room temperature prior to charging it.
I keep pushing and holding the up/down arrows to adjust the flow rate, but the rate stays the same. Why?
You must push the button once for each setting. This is intended to prevent the flow rate from changing accidentally.
My iGo is emitting noises while it’s plugged in even when I’m not currently using it. Why?
The internal fan will function while the battery charges. This is intended to maintain an acceptable battery temperature and shorten charge time. The iGo fan turns off when the battery is fully charged.
What oxygen percentage can the iGo provide?
iGo supplies 91% oxygen (plus or minus 3%). The purity level has been clinically tested to be adequate for long-term therapy.
Does the iGo work correctly in high altitudes?
Yes. The iGo can function at altitudes of up to 4,000 meters, or 13,000 feet. However, the battery might not function as long in higher altitudes because of changes in oxygen levels.
Can I use my iGo 24 hours a day?
Yes. The iGo can be used for continuous therapy.
Can I use my humidifier bottle with the iGo?
No and yes. It is permissible to use your humidifier bottle only while the iGo operates in continuous flow. However, do not use your humidifier bottle when your iGo is on pulse mode.
Can I use my iGo correctly without the battery pack?
Yes. The iGo can work with your external power source even while the battery pack isn’t installed.
Is it okay to leave the iGo continuously plugged in even while the battery is completely charged?
Yes. Your iGo will stop charging once the battery is fully charged. No hazards are associated with leaving it plugged in.
What kind of maintenance does the iGo require?
You should clean the dust filter inside the handle recess on a regular basis. No other kind of routine maintenance is required during its first three years in operation.
How can I know how much battery power is remaining?
Install the battery in the iGo, then turn on the unit without connecting the external power. You should find that the iGo battery status light will show the power remaining.
What happens when the power goes out when I am using the iGo?
If the power fails while you are using the iGo with an external power source, the iGo will switch automatically to its internal battery pack (if a battery is currently installed). If the external power restarts before the battery is completely discharged, the iGo will revert to external power. However, if the external power fails to resume, your iGo will show a battery status indication, and it will emit a beep. Once the battery is depleted, the external power light will blink. If no internal battery pack is installed, your iGo will emit a beep, and the control panel’s external power light will blink.
How can I know when my iGo is on continuous flow?
The green light next to the mode select button will be continuously lit.
How can I know when my iGo is set on pulse mode?
The green light next to the mode select button blinks every time it senses a breath.
How long should the oxygen tube be?
You can use a tubing up to 35 feet (10 meters) long when in pulse mode and up to 50 feet (15 meters) long in continuous mode.
How can I know if the oxygen purity level is acceptable?
If the green O2 light is currently illuminated, you know that the iGo is delivering the correct oxygen purity. If it drops below the correct level, the yellow O2 light will become illuminated. At this point, you can continue to use the iGo, but you should locate a substitute oxygen source at once. If the purity level continues dropping, the red service light will turn on. You should immediately locate another source of oxygen.
