Certified Pre-Owned · genuine AirSep equipment, made by CAIRE · home use, not for air travel · shipping calculated at checkout.
Good to know: the manufacturer discontinued the NewLife Elite in October 2021. We test and certify each unit before it ships, and we sell it with a 1-year warranty by American Oxygen. The manufacturer said it would keep providing parts and service for select components as materials allow, so we don’t promise specific replacement parts. If long-term parts support is your top priority, compare it with a new 5-liter model below.
Why the NewLife Elite
A ball flowmeter marked in half-liter steps, set to the flow on your prescription. Continuous flow only — no pulse dose.
The Elite delivers oxygen at about 7 psig, and the manufacturer gives instructions for using it with a bubble humidifier (its recommended bottle is the HU003-1).
Wash the inlet particle filter once a week. The manufacturer requires no preventive maintenance as long as the unit stays within specification.
Every unit is checked for oxygen purity and flow, run against manufacturer performance specs and serviced before it ships — a machine confirmed to perform, not an unknown.
Sold with a 1-year warranty by American Oxygen, with our Doral, FL team behind it if you ever need support.
Does a 5-liter concentrator cover your prescription?
The flow on your prescription is the first thing to check.
The Elite accepts prescriptions from 1 LPM up to 5 LPM of continuous flow. If yours is higher, look at a high-flow machine such as the AirSep NewLife Intensity 10 (Certified Pre-Owned). If you need oxygen away from home, a portable concentrator is the right tool. Your prescription sets the flow; we don’t.
Choose the Elite, or a new 5-liter?
your prescription is continuous flow at 5 LPM or less, the concentrator stays at home, and you want a tested machine for less than a new one, with a 1-year warranty by American Oxygen.
you want a model still in production and the manufacturer’s warranty. We carry the new Rhythm 5L and React Phoenix 5L. Or browse our other Certified Pre-Owned home concentrators.

What Certified Pre-Owned means here
This is a genuine AirSep NewLife Elite that has been used before. Our team inspects it, tests oxygen purity and flow, runs it against manufacturer performance specs and services it before it ships. Cosmetic condition varies from unit to unit, so ask us about the one you’d receive.
It’s sold with a 1-year warranty by American Oxygen covering functional issues under normal use. The warranty on this unit comes from American Oxygen, not the manufacturer.
Discontinued by the manufacturer: what it means for you
CAIRE, the manufacturer, ended production and sale of the NewLife Elite 5L on October 7, 2021. It said the sieve material these units need was no longer available, that it would continue to provide service and parts for select components based on material availability, and that the Companion 5 is its primary replacement.
What that means for you: every unit we sell is tested and certified before it ships and carries a 1-year warranty by American Oxygen. The sieve beds on these units have been replaced. Beyond that, we don’t promise specific replacement parts; if a particular part matters to you, ask us before you buy.
Prescription, safety and alarms
A prescription is required. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician, and the flow must come from your prescription. The manufacturer states that the Elite is not intended for life-supporting applications.
Every version alarms on a power failure; the rest of the alarm set depends on the year the unit was built. These units have the oxygen purity indicator (OPI), an option on the Elite that not every unit carries.
