Operating Instructions

Before Operating

This users manual serves as your reference to help you operate
and maintain the device. If you have any questions or concerns
please call your home care provider.
Important! DO NOT attempt to operate the Eclipse without first
reading the Safety Guidelines section of this manual. Please
follow all of the operating instructions. Please observe all
Warnings on the device and in the Users Manual. In order to
reduce the risk of fire, personal injury and serious damage to the
Eclipse, please observe all of the safety precautions.
WARNING: CLEAN THE CABINET, CONTROL PANEL, AND
POWER CORD ONLY WITH A MILD HOUSEHOLD CLEANER
APPLIED WITH A DAMP (NOT WET) CLOTH OR SPONGE,
AND THEN WIPE ALL SURFACES DRY. DO NOT ALLOW ANY LIqUID TO
GET INSIDE THE DEvICE. PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE OXYGEN
OUTLET FOR THE CANNULA CONNECTION TO MAKE SURE IT RE-
MAINS FREE OF DUST, WATER, AND PARTICLES.
CAUTION: Do not allow either the air intake or the air
outlet vents to become blocked. This can cause the Oxygen
Concentrator to overheat and impair performance. 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.
Powering on your Eclipse
The device is capable of being operated directly from three (3)
different power sources:
• AC Power Supply with NEMA Power Cord
• DC Power Supply
• Rechargeable Power Cartridge (Battery)
General Charging Information
The Eclipse charges the battery while
using AC power and when the battery temperature is within safe
charging temperature. When external power is disconnected,
the device will automatically switch over to the battery if the
battery is installed and charged. When external power is restored
by plugging into an AC outlet, the device will accept power
from the external power source and replenish the battery. It is
not mandatory for the battery to be installed for the Eclipse to
operate.
Proper connection of the AC or DC Power Supply requires
aligning the power plug with the recessed external power
receptacle of the device. The recessed external power receptacle
is located on the right side of the device when facing the Control
Panel. Push the power plug into the recessed receptacle.

AC POWER SUPPLY
The Eclipse includes a universal AC Power Supply for use at
home or wherever standard AC power is available. To connect
to an AC power source, be sure the AC Power Supply cord is
securely inserted into the recessed power receptacle on the side
of the device and that the cord from the AC Power Supply is
plugged into a grounded AC outlet. When the Eclipse is plugged
in properly, a green indicator on the AC Power Supply will light
and the External Power Indicator,
user control panel.
Note: Use only electrical voltage specified on the specification label
affixed to the device.

CAUTION: Use only accessories recommended by the
manufacturer. Use of any other may be hazardous,
cause serious damage to your oxygen concentrator
and will void the warranty.
CAUTION: Do not use extension cords with this unit or connect too
many plugs into the same electrical outlet. The use of extension
cords could adversely affect the performance of the device. Too
many plugs into one outlet can result in an overload to the electrical
panel causing the breaker/fuse to activate or fire if the breaker or
fuse fails to operate.
CAUTION: Use of cables and adapters other than those specified,
with the exception of cables and adapters sold by the manufac-
turer of the medical electrical equipment as replacement parts for
internal components, may result in increased emissions of decreased
immunity of the Oxygen Concentrator.
