Unit: 2.8 kg.
Optional AirBelt: 800 grams.
The POC is wearable and can be carried like a sling bag – some heavier concentrators are comparatively easy to carry because of the cart they come with.

The battery keeps on charging simultaneously while the unit is running on AC/DC power.
Internal Battery’s duration: upto 3 hours
Provides additional 4 hours of battery which makes it total duration of upto 7 hours (4 hours of belt + 3 hours of internal battery). The airbelt has a battery status indicator which displays battery power in 25% increments like the machine.
The machine works on 4 sources:
Provides pulse flow upto 5 setting (equivalent of 5 LPM continuous flow) with increments of 1. The machine is a powerhouse for the people who require pulse flow.
The POC doesn’t have continuous flow, therefore, not suitable for use with PAP devices.
