"For our clinician partners, we offer the flexibility of a 20 PSI Outlet, as well as the dependability the Drive DeVilbiss name has come to be synonymous with in the 5 Liter concentrator and oxygen conserver space. Providers will benefit with product familiarity and inventory efficiencies as 80% of the parts are shared with our market-leading 5 L concentrator. For patients, Drive DeVilbiss hopes to enhance quality of life with the smallest, lightest weight, most reliable 10 L concentrator available on the market."
