TRAVELING WITH YOUR IGO2 PORTABLE OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
While the Drive DeVilbiss iGo2 Portable Oxygen Concentrator sets you free to go
everywhere and makes travel far more streamlined than other oxygen delivery methods,
here are some things to keep in mind – no matter how you're getting there and back.
We recommend you keep your physician and provider contact information with you in
case of an emergency.
NOTE– Before starting a trip, check with your Drive DeVilbiss provider for options
(e.g. extra battery/AC Power Cord for use at destination, etc.). Refer to Replacement
Items/Spare Parts for appropriate power cord part numbers.
IMPORTANT
Always check to ensure your battery and/or spare battery is fully charged
before beginning a trip or when you may not have access to other power
sources.
The iGo2 concentrator will operate for a minimum of 3.5 hours at a setting of 2 at 20
BPM (breaths per minute) using a new fully charged battery. However, a variety of
factors such as age of battery and flow rate, can impact the duration of operating time.
For longer operation time, we suggest keeping 1 or more spare batteries on-hand and
charged.
CAUTION
When transporting the iGo2 POC, care should be taken to avoid excessive
shock.
ON THE GO WITH IGO2 PORTABLE OXYGEN
CONCENTRATOR
IMPORTANT
When using public transportation (plane, train, bus, ship), notify your
carrier(s) when making travel arrangements. They will have specific details
on requirements for oxygen use during flight/trip. Most carriers require
advance notice and many have rules regarding the minimum battery
operation time you must have. Some carriers may require confirmation of
need from your physician.

AIR TRAVEL

RTCA / DO-160G Section 21 Category M and Section 20 Category T– The manufacturer
of this POC has determined this device conforms to all applicable FAA acceptance
criteria for POC carriage and use on board aircraft.
The iGo2 concentrator will operate for a minimum of 3.5 hours at a setting of 2 at 20
BPM (breaths per minute) using a new fully charged battery. If you will be using the
device during air travel, ensure you have enough charged batteries for 1½ times the
expected maximum flight duration.
CAUTION
The iGo2 POC should be taken as a carry-on item if traveling by air; medical
devices do not count toward carry-on luggage limits. If you plan to check the
device as luggage:
1. The iGo2 POC with 1 battery installed can be checked.
2. The iGo2 POC should be packed in a protective case. The carrying case does not
provide adequate protection if checking the device.
3. The FAA does not allow spare batteries to be checked; spare batteries must be
protected from short circuit and kept in your carry-on bag.
IMPORTANT
Per FAA Regulations, spare batteries must be protected from short circuit by
placing in original retail packaging or by placing each battery in a separate
protective pouch. Refer to the FAA Advisory Circular 120-95A regarding
Portable Oxygen Concentrators for complete details

BUS / TRAIN TRAVEL / CRUISE SHIPS

Make sure you have sufficient battery life before beginning your trip.
• Power outlets may not be available on buses although they may be accessible in
some transportation terminals.
• POCs should be able to operate a minimum of four hours without available onboard
electrical power (in the event of a power disruption onboard the train).
NOTE– You should travel with 1 or more spare batteries to meet this
requirement.
• Generally cruise ships supply electrical outlets allowing you to recharge your battery.
MOTOR VEHICLE TRAVEL (Refer to page 9, Power Options – DC
(Car Charger) Power, for details regarding motor vehicle travel.)
Your iGo2 includes a DC Auto Adapter that allows the concentrator to operate from DC
accessory power port outlets such as those found in motor vehicles.
1. START YOUR VEHICLE. DO NOT leave the iGo2 or Power Supply plugged into
the vehicle without the engine running or attempt to start the vehicle while either is
connected to the vehicle. This may drain the vehicle's battery.
2. Attach Power Supply to the device and to the vehicle accessory power port using
the DC power cord.
3. Secure the iGo2 POC and Power Supply in your vehicle and make sure the air inlet
and exhaust vents are not blocked.
NOTE– Battery will not charge if plugged into power source less than 13.8V but the
device will function correctly.

CAMPING / OVERNIGHT STAYS

Battery should be charged using AC or DC Power in the camper. The concentrator can
be operated on the battery power when other power sources are not available. If
overnight oxygen use is required, you should have AC/DC Power available because the
battery will not last overnight.

TRUCKING INDUSTRY

Recommended setup for truckers is to have the concentrator plugged into AC or DC
power to be charged while the truck is running. Then when the truck is turned off, the
concentrator will run on battery power. If overnight oxygen use is required, you should
have AC/DC Power available because the battery will not last overnight.

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL

International carriers may have additional requirements; be sure to contact each carrier
regarding their rules and necessary documentation.
