HELiOS LOX Liquid Oxygen

HELiOS Plus and Marathon Liquid Oxygen portable units prove that big things come in tiny systems. In one corner, weighing 3.6 pounds and providing 308 liters of oxygen is the Plus. In the other corner is the Marathon, weighing 5.6 pounds and providing 685 liters of oxygen. When completely filled, the HELiOS Plus and Marathon can provide anywhere from 10-20 hours of battery- and electricity-free oxygen therapy (depending on model and setting). The wearable HELiOS Plus and Marathon devices provide hands-free solutions for your supplemental oxygen needs.

Developed by CAIRE Inc., the HELiOS Personal Plus Liquid Oxygen System stands just 10.5 inches tall and provides up to 10 hours of worry-free oxygen therapy -- no need to carry additional batteries or search for an AC power outlet. HELiOS Plus provides up to 4 LPM in demand flow -- making it the industry's smallest unit to do so. The low-pressure HELiOS Plus (22 PSI) can be refilled via the stationary HELiOS LOX Home Reservoir for Liquid Oxygen Therapy. Once refilled, Plus weighs just 3.6 pounds -- ideal for wearing via shoulder or belt strap.
