Product Details

FIRESAFE - Fire protection valve for oxygen nasal cannulas

Carrying out oxygen therapy at home brings a noticeable improvement in your vitality and everyday resilience. However, since medical oxygen has a strong fire-accelerating effect, the use of stationary oxygen concentrators requires the highest degree of preventive safety in the living area.

The BPR Medical Fire Protection Valve for Oxygen Nasal Cannulas (Reference: 827-2001X100) is a mandatory safety component that has been specially developed to effectively protect you, your loved ones and your home from the dangers of a hose fire. The compact, white valve acts as a thermal fuse directly in your supply line and acts completely autonomously in the background.

The technological core of this medical device is based on a highly sensitive, mechanical thermal trigger. If the supply hose or nasal cannula ignites due to an external heat source, the valve registers the sudden rise in temperature at lightning speed.

Before the flame can reach the concentrator or central oxygen source, the internal mechanism hermetically and permanently cuts off the gas flow.

The BPR Medical valve does not affect the prescribed flow rate or breathing comfort, as it is optimized for therapeutic flows from 1 to 15 liters per minute (lpm).

For patients with chronic lung disease, this inconspicuous accessory offers the reassuring feeling of absolute protection and at the same time meets all legal safety requirements for the operation of medical gas systems in the home environment.

How to Use

1. Remove the BPR Medical Fire Protection Valve from the hygienic packaging and inspect it visually.

2. Carefully cut your oxygen supply hose about 10 to 25 centimeters before the actual nasal cannula.

3. Firmly insert the cut end of the hose coming from the concentrator onto the inlet side of the valve.

4. Connect the short hose section of the nasal cannula to the outlet side just as firmly (note the directional arrows).

5. Check all plug connections for an absolutely tight and tensile fit before switching on the oxygen device.

Important Tips

  • Observe the installation direction: The arrow on the white valve body must always point exactly in the direction of flow towards the patient
  • Check the tightness of the connections: Do not use greasy aids after plugging in; the hoses must be dry and tight
  • Choose a placement close to the body: Install the valve as close to the nasal cannula as possible to cover the maximum protection area
  • Replace after tripping: The valve is a one-time fuse; after a thermal stop, it must be disposed of
  • Avoidance of tensile forces: Fix the hose so that the fire protection valve does not get caught on your clothing or chafe
  • Maintain regular replacement cycles: Replace the valve with the hose accessory on a regular basis according to your supplier's instructions

Everything you need to know about the Fire protection valve for oxygen nasal cannulas

Fully automatic thermal stop for immediate fire containment

The integrated protective mechanism reacts precisely to extreme heat in the hose system. In the event of a fire, the flow of oxygen is irreversibly interrupted within seconds, effectively preventing the fire from spreading dangerously in the direction of the device.

Mandatory protection in the home environment

This safety valve meets the legal requirements for the operation of stationary concentrators in living spaces. It closes a critical security gap in home therapy and significantly protects the lives of users and caring relatives.

Wide flow range with no therapeutic flow losses

With a tested permeability of 1 to 15 lpm, the valve is fully suitable for both low and very high flow rates. Your medically prescribed oxygen dose will reach you exactly at all times and without any drop in pressure.

Minimalist design for unobtrusive tube integration

The feather-light housing made of medical plastic does not impair the flexibility of your nasal cannula in any way. The white colour scheme blends discreetly into the existing accessories and does not cause any annoying additional weight when worn.

Maintenance-free system

Requires no batteries or an external power source and is permanently ready for use in the background.

No flow resistance

The internal design guarantees that the prescribed gas flow reaches the patient without loss of pressure.

Universal hose compatibility

Fits all standard oxygen hoses with an inner diameter of 4-6 mm thanks to the standardised connection ports.

Clear flow direction

Embossed directional arrows on the housing reliably prevent assembly errors during initial installation at home.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a fire protection valve mandatory for home oxygen therapy?

Medical oxygen does not burn itself, but it has an extremely fire-accelerating effect. The valve is required by law to immediately stop the flow of gas in the event of an ignition of the nasal cannula and to prevent the flame from traveling through the hose to the concentrator.

How exactly does the protective mechanism of the BPR Medical valve work?

The valve (reference: 827-2001X100) contains an internal mechanical thermal fuse. Once the hose material ignites and the heat reaches the valve, a locking element melts and a spring permanently closes the valve, cutting off the oxygen supply.

Does the fire protection valve affect the amount of oxygen prescribed by the doctor?

No, the BPR Medical fire protection valve is designed to be flow-optimized. It is approved for all common therapies from 1 to 15 liters per minute (lpm) and does not cause any noticeable pressure drop or restriction of gas flow during normal operation.

Where exactly in the hose system should the valve be installed?

It is recommended to place the valve as close to the patient as possible – ideally about 10 to 25 centimetres before the transition to the actual nasal cannula or inhalation mask. This secures the largest possible part of the hose section.

Can the fire protection valve be cleaned and reused after a trip?

No, it is a disposable thermal safety component. Once the valve has been triggered and closed by heat, it remains permanently locked and must be replaced with a new original part.

Does the fire protection valve require batteries or regular maintenance?

No, the valve works purely mechanically and completely self-sufficiently. It requires no power supply or batteries and is permanently and maintenance-free from the moment it is properly installed in the oxygen hose.

How do I know the correct installation direction of the valve?

A clear arrow is embossed on the white plastic housing of the valve. This arrow represents the direction of flow of the oxygen and must point away from the oxygen device and towards the patient during assembly.

How often should the fire protection valve be changed as part of home therapy?

Unless a damaging event occurs, the replacement cycle is based on your healthcare provider's guidelines. For hygienic reasons, the valve is often replaced together with the regular replacement of the long-term hose accessories.

Is the BPR Medical valve compatible with tubing from other manufacturers?

Yes, the valve has universal, conical connection cleats. It can be easily inserted between all standardized oxygen safety tubing and nasal cannulas (regardless of brands such as Salter Labs or Intersurgical).
