WARNING

ISO 8359 (Standard for Oxygen Concentrators) highly recommends that the

patient cannula that delivers gas to the patient from the oxygen concentrator

should include a Fire Stop Check Valve to stop the flow of gas towards the

patient in the case that the cannula becomes ignited. The Fire Stop Check

Valve should be located as close to the patient as reasonably practicable.
