HELiOS Reservoir offers liquid oxygen therapy in the home or office. The Reservoir stores liquid oxygen and dispenses liquid oxygen to the patient while also being able to refill the HELiOS Plus liquid oxygen unit.
This universal liquid oxygen reservoir is used for respiratory therapy and keeps delivery costs to a minimum because it is designed with the same low-loss evaporative control system used on the original HELiOS Reservoir. The primary benefit of liquid home oxygen therapy is that a large amount of oxygen can be supplied in a relatively small, portable container. One liter of liquid oxygen offers approximately 860 liters of gaseous oxygen.
