DeVilbiss by Drive Introduces the 555 Compact Oxygen Concentrator

Somerset, PA — DeVilbiss by Drive today announces the launch of the 555 Compact Oxygen Concentrator, a next-generation 5L platform engineered to help respiratory providers operate more efficiently, reduce long-term costs, and deliver a better patient experience.

A Smarter, More Efficient 5L Oxygen Concentrator

The 555 marks the first release in the DeVilbiss by Drive line of respiratory products assembled in the USA of domestic and foreign parts, following the rebranding of Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare to Drive Medical.

Building on the proven reliability and trusted performance of the time-tested DeVilbiss 525DS 5L concentrator, the 555 adds meaningful advancements in efficiency, size, and usability. The 555 is 33% more compact than its predecessor and weighs just 29.9 pounds—allowing providers to fit 36 units per pallet instead of 27, reducing freight costs, and easing the load on delivery teams. Operating at just 290 watts, it also delivers a 17 percent reduction in energy consumption, lowering operating costs for patients while reducing internal heat generation to support longer component life. A next-generation internal design with 30 percent fewer component connections, modular architecture, and streamlined component layout means faster diagnostics, simplified maintenance, and less labor time per service event, keeping fleet units in service longer.

For patients, the 555 is one of the quietest concentrators on the market at ≤46 dBA* and offers a compact profile that fits naturally in any living space alongside an intuitive digital display showing unit status at a glance. Built-in alarm troubleshooting reduces support calls and minimizes product downtime.

“We only launch a new model when we can deliver significant, tangible improvements,” said Vice President of Respiratory Product Management Frank Lazzaro. “The 555 is the result of the most experienced respiratory engineering team in the world asking hard questions about what providers and patients actually need and building the answer from the ground up. The result is a concentrator that's easier to warehouse, easier to service, and easier to live with, without compromising on the clinical performance and reliability our customers have trusted for decades."

The 555 Compact Oxygen Concentrator is available now. For more information, visit drivemedical.com/555 or contact your DeVilbiss by Drive sales representative.
