Gas concentrating systems and methods are provided. In one embodiment, a gas concentrating system and method is provided that includes component heat management. The heat management system can include, for example, one or more air cooling paths. The air cooling paths direct cooling air into and out of component spaces having heat-generating mechanisms. In other embodiments, the heat management system can also include component spaces that are insulated against the heat of heat-generating components. By cooling heat-generating components and insulating other components from heat, reduced wear and extended component life can be achieved. This reduces component failure and costly service to repair or replace failed or worn components. Also, gas concentrating systems and methods are provided for mounting system components with or without the use fasteners and in combination with or without component heat management.

System and method for concentrating gas

Embodiments of gas concentrating systems and methods are provided. In one embodiment, the system includes, for example, a plurality of modules connectable and disconnectable from each other to thereby adjust the (gas) capacity and modality of the connected system. In this manner, a user need not maintain one system for on the go (ambulatory) scenarios and a wholly second system for stationary (e.g., at home) scenarios. The systems and methods further provide the ability to gradually upgrade the system capacity consistent with the user's lifestyle and medical needs.
