Air Inlet Filter
Ambient air is drawn into the device through the air
inlet located on the top rear of the device. Cleaning
the air inlet filter is the most important maintenance
activity you will perform as a user. Cleaning the
air inlet filter will keep your Eclipse 5 performing
properly. Check this air inlet filter daily and clean it
at least once a week using the following procedure:
1. Remove the air inlet filter
2. Wash the filter in
warm tap water
using a mild
soap detergent
solution
3. Rinse the filter
thoroughly with
clear tap water
and squeeze out
the excess water
4. Allow the filter to
air dry
5. Reinsert the filter
in the cabinet
Cleaning tip: Keep a clean second filter as a re-
placement for use when one filter is drying.
CAUTION: Do not operate the Oxygen
Concentrator without the air intake
filter in place. If a second filter is pro-
vided, insert the "replacement" filter
before you clean the dirty filter. Clean
the dirty filter in a warm soap and
water solution then dry thoroughly
prior to use.
Note: The Manufacturer does not recommend the
sterilization of this equipment.
Note: Do not operate the Oxygen Concentrator
without the air intake filter in place. If a second
filter is provided, insert the "replacement" filter
before you clean the dirty filter. Clean the dirty
filter in a warm soap and water solution then dry
thoroughly prior to use.
The air inlet filter should be replaced annually. If
the Eclipse 5 is used in a dusty environment, the
filter may need to be replaced more frequently. You

filter installed for more than 5 minutes.
