INFO
"The bottom line is that the majority of GA pilots who fly normally-aspirated piston airplanes do so without any supplemental oxygen whatsoever. When they fly at altitudes above 5,000 to 10,000 feet (depending on the individual), they do so with some significant degree of hypoxic impairment. They can't think or see as clearly or make decisions as well as they should, and they get tired more quickly than they should. On those occasions where weather and/or terrain force them up above 12,500 feet, they also may be violating the FARs ... but frankly that's not my concern because I'm a doc, not a cop." - Dr. Brent Blue (read the whole article)

All E-Ox Portable Oxygen Systems are unique products designed to provide a convenient way to carry lifesaving supplemental oxygen with you when you're on the move. E-Ox is a flexible system and can be used with a standard oxygen mask or cannula, or in conjunction with a conserving device to extend cylinder duration. The standard Oxymizer conserving cannula offers up to 4:1 savings, and our state-of-the-art REACT electronic conserving device can extend the duration of your cylinders by a factor of 7! Of course, no oxygen system is complete without a pulse oximeter to monitor your oxygen saturation to ensure you are getting the oxygen you need (more on this below).
- Use E-Ox as a source of supplemental oxygen when you need to climb above 12,500 feet to avoid high terrain or weather, or when you need to "sharpen up" at night before shooting an approach. Also perfect for emergencies such as smoke in the cockpit, loss of pressurization or ditching, where this system can provide the precious minutes you need to remain conscious while you make your way to safety.
E-Ox is manufactured exclusively for Aeromedix from medical-grade components. This system has been designed to be lighter and more compact -- and substantially less costly -- than anything previously available.
The E-Ox regulator assembly fits all cylinder sizes interchangeably, so you can mix and match freely. Chrome-plated brass CPC quick-connect fittings let passengers connect or disconnect as desired. |
Standard CGA-540 fill valve lets you refill your E-Ox virtually anywhere compressed gas is sold. |
Which E-Ox System is right for you?
Choose the cylinder size that best fits your needs
A smaller system is more convenient to carry. However, since most oxygen providers and FBOs will charge you the same amount to fill your cylinder, regardless of the size, you'll save time and money by getting the largest cylinder that will fit your cockpit space. The extra cost of the larger cylinder will easily pay for itself by going longer between refills.
Note that our regulator assembly fits all E-Ox cylinder sizes, so you can "mix and match" the cylinders. This feature allows you to keep a spare cylinder handy so when one runs out, you just unscrew the regulator and attach it to the spare cylinder and you've got a full cylinder of oxygen ready for use.
