OXYGEN CYLINDER DURATION
Because the total delivery of oxygen via the EVOLUTION is related to breathing rates, it is user adaptive. The total oxygen
delivered per minute will automatically adjust with user need. For example, at all settings, twice as much oxygen per minute
will be delivered if one breathes twenty (20) times per minute as compared with ten (10) times per minute. These cylinder
durations can vary widely depending on whether more time is spent in Rest or Active mode and depending on breath rate.
Please refer to the table below as a guide.
