Inogen One® G4® Replacement Column Pair RP-406
The Inogen One G4 Replacement Column Pair RP-406 refreshes the heart of your concentrator—its sieve beds. Over time, moisture and normal use reduce the effectiveness of the columns, which can lead to purity warnings and reduced performance. Swapping the columns on schedule helps maintain reliable oxygen concentration and keeps your G4 running as intended.
This is a user-replaceable maintenance item. Most owners complete the change in just a few minutes by following the quick steps below.
