Nidek Nuvo 8 Oxygen Concentrator (8L, 585)
Nidek Nuvo 8 High-Flow Stationary Oxygen Concentrator (Model 585)
2.0 to 8.0 LPM | 17 PSIG Pressure
< 48 dBA (Quiet High-Flow Tier)
Integrated OCSI (Standard on Model 585)
Executive Product Overview
The Nidek Nuvo 8 (Model 585) is an American-made, high-flow stationary oxygen concentrator engineered for long-term care facilities, specialty respiratory care networks, and high-demand home health settings. Bridges the gap between standard 5-liter units and heavy 10-liter systems, the Nuvo 8 delivers continuous-flow oxygen from 2.0 to 8.0 LPM at 90% purity while operating at an elevated outlet pressure of 17 PSIG.
This Model 585 configuration comes standard with Nidek’s Oxygen Concentration Status Indicator (OCSI), which continuously monitors gas purity in real time. Operating quietly under 48 dBA with an efficient power draw (~500W), the Nuvo 8 features a lockable flowmeter control, a slender tapered cabinet, rear-panel filter access, and a comprehensive safety system incorporating a 40 PSIG pressure relief valve, thermal shutoff, and audible system diagnostic alarms.
Key Performance & Operational Features
- 2.0 to 8.0 LPM High Continuous Flow: Supports high-flow oxygen prescriptions, severe COPD protocols, and mid-to-high acuity patients.
- 17 PSIG Outlet Pressure Output: Elevated pressure drives respiratory accessories and maintains flow through extended oxygen tubing runs.
- Integrated OCSI Oxygen Monitor: Standard on Model 585 to continuously track purity and trigger alerts if concentration drops below clinical standards.
- Quiet High-Flow Operation (< 48 dBA): Lower acoustic signature than typical 10L units, preserving a quiet environment for overnight therapy.
- Lockable Flowmeter Dial: Front-mounted flow control dial can be locked to prevent unauthorized or accidental setting changes.
- Slender Tapered Cabinet Design: Space-saving footprint with four smooth-gliding casters and a top transport handle for easy repositioning.
- Comprehensive Mechanical Safety System: Includes 40 PSIG safety pressure relief valve, internal thermal safety shutoff, and full diagnostic alarms.
- Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States backed by a 3-year limited warranty.

Facility Procurement & Risk Mitigation Insight
Standardizing 8 LPM patient beds on the Nidek Nuvo 8 (585) provides high-flow capacity without incurring the higher electrical draw (~700W) or noise levels of 10L units. The built-in OCSI sensor automates oxygen purity compliance tracking, while the 17 PSIG output maintains consistent delivered flow across extended facility tubing runs.
Product & Compliance FAQs
Q: What is the main difference between the Nidek Nuvo Model 585 and Model 580?
A: Model 585 includes the integrated Oxygen Concentration Status Indicator (OCSI), which continuously measures purity and triggers alerts if oxygen levels drop below therapeutic thresholds. Model 580 lacks this sensor. This listing is for Model 585.
Q: How does the 17 PSIG outlet pressure benefit respiratory accessory setup?
A: Standard 5L concentrators operate at ~5–7 PSIG. The 17 PSIG output of the Nuvo 8 provides sufficient pneumatic force to drive humidification devices, specialized masks, and longer cannula tubing runs up to 8 LPM without pressure drop.
Q: What prescription documentation is required prior to order dispatch?
A: Per FDA Class II medical device regulations, orders for the Nidek Nuvo 8 require a valid prescription or medical license specifying continuous-flow oxygen settings prior to compliance verification and shipment release.
