Multi-Pack — 6 Replacement Filters
Oxlife Independence POC Units
Washable & Reusable Poly-Foam
FDA Class I Medical Accessory
Executive Product Overview
The O2 Concepts Air Inlet Filters (SKU #800-1006) are genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement intake filters engineered specifically for all Oxlife Independence Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POCs). Designed to slide into the intake recessed bay on the side of the unit, these filters form the primary line of defense against ambient dust, lint, pet hair, and airborne particulate matter.
Maintaining clean gross-particle air inlet filters is critical for preserving internal sieve bed efficiency, preventing motor compressor contamination, and sustaining optimal oxygen purity delivery. Constructed from high-density, washable open-cell foam, each filter can be routinely cleaned with warm water and mild soap. Packaged in a convenient 6-pack bundle, this kit equips healthcare facilities, home equipment providers, and oxygen therapy users with essential inventory for routine preventive maintenance cycles.
Key Performance & Operational Features
- Official OEM Direct Fit (SKU #800-1006): Precision-molded (~3″ x 2″ x 1″) to seat flush inside the Oxlife Independence side filter housing without air bypass gaps.
- Compressor & Sieve Bed Protection: Traps gross environmental debris before air enters the internal filtration beds and air compressor assemblies.
- Washable & Reusable Design: Durable open-cell foam material withstands weekly hand-washing cycles in warm water and mild dish soap.
- Bulk Facility Maintenance Pack (6/Pack): Provides ample replacement stock so rotation filters can be air-dried completely while a dry spare is in active operation.
- Tool-Free Installation: Slides in and out of the concentrator frame in seconds, simplifying daily care routines for patients and clinical staff.

Product & Compliance FAQs
Q: What regulatory oversight governs O2 Concepts Air Inlet Filters?
A: Concentrator replacement filters and maintenance accessories are classified by the FDA as Class I exempt medical accessories (HCPCS E1399). They do not require a medical prescription or healthcare license to purchase.
Q: How frequently should the Oxlife Independence air inlet filter be cleaned and replaced?
A: Wash the active air inlet filter weekly using warm water and a mild liquid soap, rinsing thoroughly. Allow the filter to air dry completely before reinserting it into the machine. Replace the filter with a fresh unit from the 6-pack every 3 to 6 months, or sooner if the foam shows tearing, fraying, or permanent discoloration.
Q: Can the Oxlife Independence concentrator be operated without an inlet filter installed?
A: No. Operating the concentrator without an air inlet filter allows airborne dust and debris to be sucked directly into the internal compressor and sieve beds, which can cause internal motor damage, clogged valves, and void the manufacturer warranty.
