What is OxySafe2™?
OxySafe2 is a thermal fuse designed to stop the flow of gas if the downstream cannula or supply tube is ignited and will meet VA, ISO and other regulatory requirements.

With OxySafe2, the PVC tube is inclined to extinguish because PVC will not normally burn in the air - offering healthcare providers a cost-effective solution to lower the risk of serious patient injury in a dangerous oxygen fire.

Where Do I Use OxySafe2?
OxySafe2 should be placed as close to the patient as possible and as close to the source as possible. This means that, ideally, a patient should have 2 OxySafe2s. This way, you can protect the patient and others by protecting the oxygen source from fire. If you only put OxySafe2 in the middle of the circuit, (say in between two 7-foot supply tubes) you may not protect the source. And, you run the risk of the fire spreading regardless of the OxySafe2 extinguishing the cannula tubing - as the burning tube can cause other things to catch on fire.

The best way to use OxySafe2's special nasal cannula is to keep the OxySafe2 as close to the patient as possible, where most fires start. OxySafe2's nasal cannula has a special 2" long cannula, which keeps OxySafe2 close to the patient and stops the fire before it can spread.

Additionally, you should place an OxySafe2 at the source of oxygen, either the regulator or concentrator. The best way to do this is to use OxySafe2's special 2" connecting tubing, not a long supply tubing.

How Long Can I Use OxySafe2?
OxySafe2 has a lifespan of 4 years. Typically, providers choose to replace them more frequently, sometimes as often as they change the cannula. You should not attempt to wash the OxySafe2 or transfer it to another patient after it is used.

Can OxySafe2 Be Transferred Between Patients?
No. OxySafe2 is intended for Single Patient Use, and should not be transferred between patients. Each patient should have their own OxySafe2 devices.

How Do I Clean OxySafe2?
Clean the exterior surfaces of the OxySafe2 using an alcohol or disinfectant wipe. Do not immerse the device in any fluid or allow fluid to enter through the hose barb connections during the cleaning process.

Can I Re-Use OxySafe2 After It Is Actuated?
No. OxySafe2 cannot be reset and should be replaced once it is actuated.

Can OxySafe2 Be Used With CPAP/BiPAP?
Yes! OxySafe2 works with flows up to 20 L/min.
