Oxygen Cylinder and Flowmeter Price in Kenya

Oxygen is the one thing a ward cannot run out of. This guide covers what a medical oxygen cylinder, a flowmeter and a concentrator cost in Kenya and how to choose between cylinder supply and a concentrator.

Cylinder or concentrator

A cylinder costs less up front and delivers high flow instantly. You pay for it again every time you refill and you need a reliable refill route.

A concentrator costs more up front and then runs on electricity alone. For a patient on long term oxygen at home, or a clinic far from a refill depot, it pays for itself inside a year.

Most facilities keep both. Concentrators for steady therapy, cylinders for theatre, transfers and power cuts.

What to check before you buy

  • Match the flowmeter fitting to your outlet. Bull nose and pin index are not interchangeable.
  • Ask whether the humidifier bottle is included.
  • For a concentrator, check the oxygen purity at full flow, not just at 1 litre.
  • Confirm the cylinder has a current hydrostatic test date.
  • Ask who does the refills in your county and what a refill costs.

Common questions

How long does a full cylinder last? It depends on the flow rate and the cylinder size. At 2 litres a minute a standard ward cylinder runs for several hours. Your supplier should give you the exact figure for the size you buy.

Do you deliver outside Nairobi? Yes. We deliver countrywide and can arrange installation for facilities.

Can I buy one cylinder for home use? Yes and we will show your family how to set the flow safely.
