oxygen concentrator
Medical air enricher
An oxygen concentrator is a medical device that extracts oxygen from ambient air and delivers it at higher concentrations to patients with respiratory conditions.
Unlike oxygen tanks, which store compressed gas, concentrators draw in room air, filter out nitrogen, and produce a continuous supply: She relies on a portable oxygen concentrator when traveling.
