The difference between 3liter and 5liter oxygen concentrators is usually due to differences in flow range, suitable audience, size, weight, and power consumption.
What does 3L home oxygen concentrator mean
⭐ The meaning of 3L actually refers to the flow rate of oxygen. 3L medical oxygen concentrator means that in the flow rate range of 1-3L/min, the oxygen concentration is constant at 93% ±3%, and the maximum flow rate is 3L per minute
The same goes for 5L home oxygen concentrators:
⭐ 5L means that the flow rate of the oxygen concentrator ranges from 1-5L/min, in which the oxygen concentration can be kept constant at 93% ±3%, and the maximum flow rate is 5L per minute

❓ So what is the difference between a 3L oxygen concentrator and a 5L oxygen concentrator?
1. ⃣ Different flow ranges: the maximum flow rate of the 3L oxygen concentrator per minute is 3L, while the maximum flow rate of the 5L oxygen concentrator per minute is 5L.2
⃣ Different target groups: The 3L oxygen concentrator is mostly used for sub-healthy people, such as office workers, programmers, pregnant women, students, and long-term mental workers. They are often used for health purposes. The 5L oxygen concentrator not only covers the target population of the 3L oxygen concentrator, but also includes patients with moderate to severe diseases who are often hypoxic.
3. ⃣ Size and weight:
👉 3L oxygen concentrator: Generally speaking, 3L oxygen concentrator is relatively small and lightweight.
👉 5L Oxygen Concentrator: 5L oxygen concentrator is usually larger and heavier.
4 ⃣. Power consumption:
👉 The compressor used in the 3L oxygen generator is small in size and has relatively low power consumption.
👉 The 5L oxygen concentrator compressor is larger, so the power consumption is relatively high.

If you choose an oxygen concentrator, whether you choose 3L or 5L, the most important thing is to choose a medical-grade oxygen concentrator. Why does Xiaorui want to emphasize to everyone that it is a “medical” oxygen concentrator ❓ because many healthy oxygen concentrators cannot maintain a constant oxygen concentration of 93% ±3% when the oxygen flow increases, and cannot achieve the expected effect!
