Buying an oxygen concentrator can be challenging, especially when you are doing it for the first time and have a limited budget. There are several models in the market that come at a low price but if you carefully look at specifications you will find these are not for medical use.
To guide you in buying the best oxygen concentrator in India, we have come up with the list of top affordable home oxygen concentrators that are approved for medical usage.
Oxygen concentrator price in India varies with the model type you want to buy, that is, stationary oxygen concentrators would cost you less than portable ones. Stationary oxygen concentrators need to be plugged into the electrical wall outlet and cannot be carried outside the house .
On the other hand, portable oxygen concentrators work on rechargeable batteries and patients can carry the machine wherever they go. Portable concentrators are much more technologically advanced which justifies the price difference between both the types of machines.
Also, the price of Chinese or Indian concentrators is slightly less than that of American concentrators.
Now that you have the basic knowledge about oxygen concentrator models, let’s go straight into the list.
- Oxymed Mini: Oxymed Mini is one of the best budget oxygen concentrators in India. Supplying oxygen at the purity rate of above 90% at the flow rate of 0.5-5 LPM, it is the most compact concentrator in the entire industry.
The most striking feature of this machine is that it has an inbuilt oxygen purity analyzer. This means that you will be able to view the purity percentage of oxygen being delivered to the patient in real-time. Even the most established and expensive American concentrators do not have this feature.
Furthermore, it also has a ball-type flow meter along with a digital one through which you can set and verify the flow rate very conveniently and without any chances of discrepancies. Oxymed has the largest dealer network in India and has many satisfied customers.
Owing to its wide network, this company provides doorstep service in case of an issue with the machine. Oxymed Mini comes with three years of warranty which is again an excellent specification that most of the oxygen concentrator brands in affordable price range fail to offer.
- Evox 5S: The next affordable oxygen concentrator on our list is Evox 5S. This machine can also supply oxygen at a purity level of above 90% across flow rates of 0.5-5 LPM . It weighs 15.60 Kgs which makes it a bit bulkier than the Oxymed Mini, but it still complies with the industry’s average.
This oxygen concentrator has various attention-grabbing features such as an inbuilt nebulizer and an oxygen purity analyzer.
- Yuwell 9F Touchscreen: Yuwell is the oldest Chinese brand in the Indian market and has managed to get the trust of the Indian public by incorporating various innovative features in the machine.
The most popular model of the Yuwell brand is the Yuwell 9F Touchscreen that supplies 90% pure oxygen at the flow rates of 0.5-5 LPM. Though it weighs 18 kgs which makes it one of the heaviest in the category of 5 LPM models, it still has some worth noting features such as remote control operation, touch screen display and an inbuilt oxygen purity analyzer. It is a trusted machine and you can definitely go for it if you are looking for a low-budget oxygen concentrator.
- BPL Oxy 5 neo 5 LPM: BPL is a very popular healthcare brand in India marking its presence for a very long time. Even professional healthcare experts vouch for this brand. Though their oxygen concentrator BPL 5 LPM is not the best in terms of specifications, it would still be a good option for you as it can uncompromisingly deliver 90% pure oxygen at the flow rates of 0.5-5 LPM.
Weighing 25 Kgs is the heaviest 5 LPM oxygen concentrator in India. But it is still a recommended machine because BPL is a very trustable and affordable brand.
So, this was all in the list of best affordable oxygen concentrators in India. If you are planning to buy an oxygen concentrator for the first time, you can read the step by step guide on buying oxygen concentrators.
