When sourcing an Olive Oxygen Concentrator, the most critical factor is the Oxygen Purity level, which must be maintained at 93% ± 3% even at the maximum flow rate. Buyers should distinguish between Pulse Flow (common in portable units) and Continuous Flow (standard for stationary units). Additionally, evaluate the Compressor lifespan, as high-quality units utilize oil-free compressors capable of exceeding 18,000 hours of operation. For noise-sensitive environments, ensure the noise level is below 45dB.
