# Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence

### A. Device Description

The Invacare Model Platinum 5 Oxygen Concentrator is an electromechanical, prescription device designed for use in the home, by patients that require supplemental oxygen. Its intended function and use is to provide supplemental oxygen to patients with respiratory disorders, by separating nitrogen from room air, by way of a molecular sieve, It is not intended to sustain or support life.

Oxygen is delivered to the user by means of standard oxygen supply tubing and a standard nasal cannula, which are not supplied with the device. A standard humidifier bottle may be used, if desired.

The front panel of the device contains the controls and indicators. These include a standard barb fitting for attaching the oxygen tubing, the adjustable flow meter, a power light indicator, an elapsed time meter, and a standard on/off rocker type power switch.

## B. Substantial Equivalence

The Invacare Model Platinum Oxygen Concentrator is substantially equivalent to the Sunrise Medical Model DeVilbiss 5 Liter Oxygen Concentrator (K990711).

#### Performance Data

The Invacare Model Platinum Oxygen Concentrator was tested in accordance with the electrical, mechanical and environmental performance requirements for home use respiratory devices set forth in the Anesthesiology and Respiratory Devices Branch's November 1993 document entitled "Reviewer Guidance for Pre-market Notification Submissions", published by the Anesthesiology and Respiratory Devices Branch. In all instances the device met the required performance criteria and functioned as intended.

Dear Mr. Kroll:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
