Aithre Altus Turbo: Built-In O2 Generator

No bottles or batteries required. Aithre’s aircraft-powered oxygen maker generates breathing oxygen for two users at altitudes up to 15,000 feet.

Given the clinical-focused form factor and electrical power required of most oxygen concentrator systems we’ve looked at in the past, we all but dismissed most of them as impractical for use in small aircraft. Aithre—the company that’s been leading the charge with a wide variety of cockpit biometrics products—brings a new solution with the Altus Turbo Oxygen Maker.

This system is designed for permanent installation in a variety of GA airframes, with the capacity to supply enough pure breathing oxygen for a couple of users we’ll into the teens. Here’s a product overview.
