Executive Product Overview
The Nidek Nuvo Nano (Model 855) is an ultra-lightweight, American-made portable oxygen concentrator (POC) weighing just 4.7 pounds. Engineered for ambulatory patients, mobile care networks, and transport logistics, it supplies breath-actuated pulse-dose oxygen across five settings (210 to 1,000 mL/min) with oxygen concentrations reaching up to 96%.
Featuring a synchronized inspiratory trigger that operates across respiratory rates of 10 to 40 breaths per minute, the Nuvo Nano includes an Auto-Pulse backup safety system that automatically delivers pulsed oxygen if breath activity pauses. The unit features a backlit 2.8-inch color LCD display, operates on AC, DC vehicle, or rechargeable lithium-ion battery power, and is fully FAA-approved for commercial aviation.
Battery Runtime Performance Portfolio
Operational runtime estimates across pulse settings utilizing the standard quick-swap 14.5V lithium-ion battery pack:
| Pulse Setting | Minute Volume Output | Max Estimated Battery Runtime | Recharge & Operational Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setting 1 | 210 mL/min | Up to 3.5 Hours | Recharges in under 4 hours via AC or DC vehicle power. |
| Setting 2 | 420 mL/min | Up to 3.25 Hours | Operates and recharges concurrently while connected to power. |
| Setting 3 | 630 mL/min | Up to 2.5 Hours | Ideal for moderate physical ambulation. |
| Setting 4 | 840 mL/min | Up to 2.15 Hours | Supports elevated oxygen demand during transport. |
| Setting 5 | 1,000 mL/min | Up to 1.5 Hours | Maximum pulse bolus output for high-demand activity. |

Facility Procurement & Risk Mitigation Insight
Standardizing patient transport fleets on the American-made Nidek Nuvo Nano (Model 855) provides lightweight mobility without sacrificing diagnostic visibility. The backlit 2.8-inch color display simplifies staff audits of remaining runtime, while the Auto-Pulse backup safety system mitigates apneic risks during patient transport.
Product & Compliance FAQs
Q: Can the Nidek Nuvo Nano be used with a bubble humidifier bottle?
A: No. Humidifier bottles are restricted to stationary continuous-flow systems. Pulse-dose POCs output instantaneous gas boluses on inhalation and cannot build the line pressure necessary to push oxygen through water, which will trigger flow error alarms.
Q: Can the Nuvo Nano operate and recharge in a vehicle?
A: Yes. The included DC power cable plugs into standard 12V vehicle outlets, allowing the unit to deliver oxygen on all 5 settings while simultaneously charging the internal battery.
Q: What prescription verification is required prior to order dispatch?
A: Per FDA Class II medical device regulations, orders for the Nidek Nuvo Nano require a valid prescription or medical license specifying pulse-dose oxygen settings prior to compliance verification and shipment release.
B2B Procurement Disclaimer: Technical specifications, flow ratings, and regulatory guidelines are compiled from Nidek Medical manufacturer standards. Facilities are responsible for verifying valid prescription documentation prior to patient deployment.
