Looking for an oxygen concentrator available to buy in Tunisia? Which are the best oxygen concentrators currently available for sale and shipping?

What is an Oxygen Concentrator and where can you buy one in Tunisia?
An oxygen concentrator (also called a home oxygen machine) is an electrically-operated device that produces medical oxygen upon demand. Oxygen concentrators deliver O2 supply to the patient at home or in a hospital setting, with different oxygen purity depending on the model. Oxygen purity can vary in the range of 90%-95.9% for high-efficiency models, which is enough to provide enough oxygen levels to cover the needs of patients with sever respiratory conditions such as COPD or a COVID-19 infection that has affected the lungs.
The other important thing after oxygen purity is the litres per minute of LPM. LPM measures the overall oxygen flow produced by the machine and delivered to the user/patient. LPM often varies in the range of 5LPM to 10 LPM for heavy-duty models.
Oxygen concentrators are available for purchase and delivery to Tunisia at CPAPEUROPA.COM. We service the entire country and offer brand new medical-grade O2 machines with certificate and the original manufacturer’s warranty.

2. Philips Respironics – Stationary
One of the main pros of the Philips Respironics home oxygen machine is the large number of pulse flow settings, POC’s features and quiet operation. Although deemed a “portable oxygen machine” due to its light weight and wheels, which allow easy relocation in the room, the Respironics is not portable in the true sense. A portable model weighs 10 times less and is much more compact than a stationary concentrator such as the Respironics. Browse true portable concentrators here. As for its price, the Philips Respironics is available for purchase in Tunisia for TND 4020 to TND 5695.

The main pros of the Invacare Perfecto2 V Oxygen Concentrator are its user-friendly interface and easy-to-operate control panel designed with the user in mind. The other popular feature of this home oxygen machine available for Tunisia is its easy access to the humidifier bottle and the filter – one of the most important components in any home oxygen device.

Hands down the best German-made oxygen concentrators for sale in Tunisia are the Krober models Aeroplus E and Krober O2. These two European best-sellers have been dominating the European market for decades now, satisfying the needs of millions of home O2 users across the continent. The German brand Krober offers something most other brands do not: reliability at affordable prices. The models offer 5 LMP (Krober O2) and 6 LPM (Aeroplus), satisfying the needs of the vast majority of oxygen therapy patients around the globe. CPAPEUROPA is an official distributor of Krober and supplies Tunisia regularly.
6. DeVilbiss
Hands down the best oxygen concentrators come from the American brand DeVilbiss. Also available for shipping to Tunisia, the DeVilbiss 525 and 1025 models bring perfection to another level. Offering two ready to satisfy even the most demanding patient — 5 LPM and 10 LPM respectively — the Drive DeVilbiss oxygen concentrators offer the full package. These compact oxygen concentrators are designed to meet and exceed the high demands of patients on oxygen therapy. Compact and affordable, the Devilbiss 525 delivers up to 5 litres of oxygen per minute across all flow rates, and has become popular in the USA for its high-quality construction, eco-friendly design and overall reliability. The DeVilbiss 1025 on the other hand is a full-blown 10 LPM beast ready to deliver up to 10L per minute while being as compact as the 5 LPM version. This O2 machine is built extra lightweight (weighing only 19kgs) and is one of the most compact oxygen concentrators currently on the market, capable of delivering high volume oxygen.
How to choose the right concentrator for your needs?
The first deciding thing you need to take into account is the prescribed litres per minute. If your doctor has prescribed a 5 LMP concentrator, then you can easily go with a Philips Respironics, a DeVilbiss 525 or a Krober model. However, if your prescription stipulates a higher dosage, then your should seek a 5LPM+ unit like the DeVilbiss 1025, which will provide the required flow.
Pro tip: Do not buy for cheap Chinese-made concentrators that can provide only low doses of oxygen (under 5 LPM), as these are highly inefficient and not worth the investment! Not to mention that they malfunction often and spare parts are often not available due to their ‘unique’ but cheap build.
If you are considering traveling along with your O2 machine, then go for a portable model and pair it with a reliable pulse oximeter to check your blood oxygen levels (saturation) on the go. Be sure to purchase extra batteries if you’re planning on traveling away from home for long period of time without discontinuing your oxygen therapy in Tunisia.
What is a pulse flow concentrator?
Pulse flow concentrators are also called intermittent flow concentrators and can be set to adjust the rise time and how quickly or slowly the pulse oxygen is delivered to match the patient’s breathing pattern. Pulse-flow devices only provide oxygen during inhalation, producing nothing during exhalation. Ergo, pulse-dose-delivery models do not waste oxygen while operating.
What is a continuous flow concentrator?
Unlike pulse flow concentrators, continuous flow models deliver oxygen continuously in litres per minute. The decision which model to get — whether a pulse-flow one or a continuous-flow model — depends on your doctor and your prescription. For most patients with COPD, for example, pulse flow models (intermittent flow machines) will meet the supplemental oxygen needs of most patients, so there will be no need to purchase a continuous flow machine in Tunisia.
What are the main benefits of stationary concentrators over portable units?
First and foremost, stationary units are much more powerful than portable oxygen concentrators. They are ready for use right out of the box and do not require accessories such as carry bags or spare batteries. In that sense, stationary models are plug-and-play devices ready to cover any patient’s need, especially the ones requiring high dosage of oxygen per minute. No portable concentrator can deliver 10 LPM like the DeVilbiss does. Plus, portable concentrators are much more expensive in Tunisia and elsewhere than stationary O2 machines.

Do you need a prescription to buy a stationary oxygen concentrator for Tunisia?
Yes. Supplemental oxygen is categorized as medical treatment that is prescribed by a doctor. Your doctor in Tunisia will prescribe the oxygen flow rate and the length of time you must use the oxygen machine.
Can I take my oxygen concentrator on an airplane?
If it is a portable unit, yes. The Basis of Disability in Air Travel stipulates that air carriers must allow passengers with portable oxygen concentrators on board as long as the device has been FAA-approved on flights. The Inogen G3 listed in this guide is one of them. Stationary concentrators, due to their weight and bulk, are NOT allowed on airplanes.
