SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES  
SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES  
In order to ensure the safe installation, assembly and  
operation of the Perfecto2 concentrator these instructions  
MUST be followed.  
WARNING  
This section contains important information for the safe  
operation and use of this product.  
To Reduce the Risk of Burns,  
Electrocution, Fire or Injury to Persons  
DANGER  
Risk of electric shock. DO NOT disassemble. Refer servicing  
to qualified service personnel. No user serviceable parts.  
Avoid using while bathing. If continuous usage is required  
by the physician’s prescription, the concentrator MUST be  
located in another room at least 7 ft from the bath.  
DO NOT come in contact with the concentrator while wet.  
DO NOT place or store product where it can drop into  
water or other liquid.  
DO NOT reach for product that has fallen into water.  
Unplug IMMEDIATELY.  
If the concentrator has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not  
working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or  
dropped into water, call qualified technician for  
examination and repair.  
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease  
or greasy substances come in contact with oxygen under  
pressure. These substances MUST be kept away from the  
oxygen concentrator, tubing and connections, and all  
other oxygen equipment. DO NOT use any lubricants  
unless recommended by Invacare.  
Avoid creation of any spark near medical oxygen  
equipment. This includes sparks from static electricity  
created by any type of friction.

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES  
Operating Information  
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each  
concentrator be on and running for a minimum of 30 minutes  
at a time. Shorter periods of operation may reduce maximum  
product life.  
Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit out from under such  
items as blankets, bed coverings, chair cushions, clothing and  
away from heated or hot surfaces, including space heaters,  
stoves and similar electrical appliances.  
DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the  
power cord.  
NEVER drop or insert any object or liquid into any opening.  
Invacare recommends that CrushProof oxygen tubing be  
used with this product and not exceed 50 ft in length.  
There are no user serviceable parts. This does not include  
normal maintenance items. See maintenance section for user  
maintenance items.  
A product should NEVER be left unattended when plugged  
in. Make sure the Perfecto2 is Off when not in use.  
Close supervision is necessary when this product is used near  
children or physicallychallenged individuals.  
Additional monitoring or attention may be required for  
patients using this device who are unable to hear or see  
alarms or communicate discomfort.  
DO NOT connect the concentrator in parallel or series with  
other oxygen concentrators or oxygen therapy devices.  
Radio Frequency Interference  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with  
EMC limits specified by IEC/EN 6060112. These limits are  
designed to provide a reasonable protection against  
electromagnetic interference in a typical medical installation.

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES  
Other devices may experience interference from even the low  
levels of electromagnetic emissions permitted by the above  
standards. To determine if the emissions from the Perfecto2 is  
causing the interference, turn the Perfecto2 Off. If the  
interference with the other device(s) stops, then the Perfecto2  
is causing the interference. In such rare cases, interference  
may be reduced or corrected by one of the following  
measures:  
• Reposition, relocate, or increase the separation  
between the equipment.  
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit  
different from that to which the other device(s) is  
connected.

SECTION 5—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
SECTION 5—OPERATING  
INSTRUCTIONS  
Introduction  
Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use  
indoors. It is an electronically operated device that separates  
oxygen from room air. It provides high concentration of oxygen  
directly to you through a nasal cannula. Clinical studies have  
documented that oxygen concentrators are therapeutically  
equivalent to other types of oxygen delivery systems.  
Your provider will show you how to use your oxygen  
concentrator. He/She should be contacted with any questions  
or problems regarding your oxygen concentrator. This  
owners manual will tell you about your concentrator and will  
serve as a reference as you use your concentrator.  
Select a Location  
WARNING  
NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a  
soft surface, such as a bed or couch, where the air opening may  
be blocked. Keep the openings free from lint, hair and the like.  
Keep unit at least 3 inches away from walls, draperies,  
furniture, and the like.  
You may select a room where using your oxygen concentrator  
would be most convenient. Your concentrator can be easily  
rolled from room to room on its casters.  
Your oxygen concentrator will perform best when operated  
under the following conditions. Refer to Typical Product  
Parameters on page 12. Usage in environments other than  
those described may result in the need for increased  
equipment maintenance. The air intake of the unit should be  
located in a well ventilated area to avoid smoke, airborne  
pollutants and/or fumes. DO NOT place in a closet.

Flowrate  
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 5.5 on page 20.  
1. Turn the flowrate knob to the setting prescribed by your  
physician or therapist.  
CAUTION  
Never set the flow greater than 5 L/min.  
WARNING  
DO NOT change the L/min setting on the flowmeter unless a  
change has been prescribed by your physician or therapist.  
NOTE: To properly read the flowmeter, locate the prescribed flowrate  
line on the flowmeter. Next, turn the flow knob until the ball rises to  
the line. Now, center the ball on the L/min line prescribed.  
2. If the flowrate on the flowmeter ever falls below 0.5 L/min  
for more than about one minute, the LOW FLOW alarm  
will be triggered. This is a rapid beeping of the audible  
alarm. Check your tubing or accessories for blocked or  
kinked tubing or a defective humidifier bottle. After rated  
flow is restored, between 0.5 L/min and 0.75 L/min, the  
LOW FLOW audible alarm will turn off.  
NOTE: The use of some accessories such as the pediatric flowstand  
and the HomeFill compressor will deactivate the Low Flow Alarm.

This warranty is extended only to the original purchaser who purchases  
this product when new and unused from Invacare Corporation or a  
dealer. This warranty is not extended to any other person or entity and it  
is not transferable or assignable to any subsequent purchaser or owner.  
Coverage under this warranty will end upon any such subsequent sale or

legal rights and you may also have other legal rights which may vary from  
state to state.  
Invacare Corporation warrants its Perfecto2 Oxygen Concentrators when  
purchased new and unused to be free from defects in materials and  
workmanship for a period of three years from date of purchase from  
Invacare or a dealer, with a copy of the seller’s invoice required for  
coverage under this warranty.

or replaced, at Invacare Corporation's option. This warranty only applies  
to the labor for repairs performed by the Invacare Service Department or  
Invacare Authorized Service Centers. It does not apply to the labor  
performed by the purchaser or user. This warranty does not include  
normal wear and tear or shipping charges. Invacare Corporation's sole  
obligation and your exclusive remedy under this warranty shall be limited  
to such repair or replacement. Routine maintenance items, such as filters,  
are excluded from this warranty.  
For warranty service, please contact Invacare Corporation's Service  
Department at the toll free number on the back cover. Upon receiving  
notice of an alleged defect in a product, Invacare Corporation will issue a  
serialized return authorization. It shall then be the responsibility of the

defective component part(s) identified, pack the component part(s) in a  
manner to avoid shipping damage and to ship the component part(s) to

Invacare Corporation in advance. Defective component part(s) MUST be  
returned for warranty inspection using the serial number as identification  
within thirty days of return authorization date. DO NOT return products
