Sequal Eclipse 5 Portable Oxygen Concentrator
CAIRE SeQual Eclipse 5 Portable Oxygen Concentrator
Continuous (0.5–3.0 LPM) & Pulse (Settings 1–9)
Up to 192 mL Bolus Delivery
autoSAT® & UltraSense® Breath Triggering
Executive Product Overview
The CAIRE SeQual Eclipse 5 (Model 6900-SEQ) is an industry-standard dual-mode transportable oxygen concentrator engineered to deliver continuous-flow medical oxygen up to 3.0 LPM and pulse-dose oxygen across settings 1 through 9 (up to a 192 mL bolus). Designed for 24/7/365 clinical reliance, the Eclipse 5 bridges the gap between stationary bedside concentrators and lightweight ambulatory portables.
Equipped with CAIRE's proprietary autoSAT® technology, the Eclipse 5 automatically adjusts internal compressor performance to maintain constant oxygen volume delivery even as patient respiratory rates fluctuate during physical exertion. Featuring UltraSense® technology for high-sensitivity breath detection, the unit operates on AC, 12V DC vehicle power (charging continuously at 2.0 LPM continuous or all pulse settings), and battery power. Fully FAA-approved for commercial air travel, it ships complete with a telescoping travel cart, accessory bag, and AC/DC adapters.
Key Performance & Operational Features
- True Dual Delivery Capabilities: Continuous flow from 0.5 to 3.0 LPM (in 0.5 LPM increments) plus pulse dosing settings 1 to 9 (up to 192 mL bolus).
- Patented autoSAT® Technology: Servos output to match dynamic breathing rates, maintaining linear arterial oxygen saturation margins.
- UltraSense® Breath Triggering: High-sensitivity pressure sensor detects subtle inspiratory effort with fast valve response times.
- 24/7/365 Operational Duty Rating: Engineered for continuous home bedside deployment and mobile transport.
- DC Vehicle Power Recharging: Full operational and battery charging capability when plugged into 12V DC vehicle sockets (at 2.0 LPM continuous and all pulse settings).
- FAA Commercial Aviation Approved: Conforms to Federal Aviation Administration guidelines for commercial aircraft deployment.
- Heavy-Duty Telescoping Cart: Includes an adjustable transport cart with oversized wheels for smooth navigation across uneven terrain.

Facility Procurement & Risk Mitigation Insight
Procuring the CAIRE SeQual Eclipse 5 solves complex transport logistics for clinical facilities. Supplying continuous flow up to 3.0 LPM alongside pulse dosing up to setting 9, it allows care teams to support both active ambulation and nocturnal PAP sleep integration with a single mobilizable asset, reducing overall fleet diversity overhead.
Product & Compliance FAQs
Q: What is the primary difference between continuous flow and pulse dose delivery on the Eclipse 5?
A: Continuous flow delivers an uninterrupted stream of medical oxygen measured in Liters Per Minute (0.5–3.0 LPM), required for sleep therapy or high-acuity needs. Pulse dose delivers breath-actuated oxygen boluses synchronized with inspiratory triggering (Settings 1–9) to preserve battery power during ambulation.
Q: How does CAIRE's autoSAT® technology support fluctuating patient respiratory rates?
A: autoSAT® functions as an automated throttle control. As a patient's breathing rate increases during activity or ambulation, autoSAT® automatically adjusts compressor cycle timing to ensure the full prescribed oxygen bolus is delivered without drop-offs.
Q: What prescription documentation is required prior to order dispatch?
A: Per FDA Class II medical device regulations, orders for the CAIRE SeQual Eclipse 5 require a valid prescription or medical license specifying continuous or pulse-dose oxygen settings prior to compliance verification and shipment release.
