HBOT Chambers & Systems from Sechrist Industries
Sechrist Industries is a US manufacturer of single-occupant monoplace hyperbaric oxygen chambers rated for operation at 3.0 ATA, headquartered in Anaheim, California. Five FDA 510(k) clearances are register-verified against the FDA database - the strongest verification status in its record - while all ISO, ASME and EU certifications currently rest on manufacturer statements. Distribution is stated as global, with over 2,800 chambers installed in the USA alone.
Company & Products
Sechrist Industries is headquartered in Anaheim, California, and manufactures monoplace hyperbaric oxygen chambers - single-occupant units rated for operation at 3.0 ATA. The dossier lists monoplace as the company's only chamber category; there are no multiplace or soft-sided systems in its verified product record.
The scale figures are the manufacturer's own: chambers in use in over 172 countries, a network of more than 100 domestic and international distributors, and over 2,800 chambers installed in the USA alone. The FDA clearance record independently confirms a product line spanning several chamber generations, including the Model 2500E/2500ER, 3200P/3200PR and 3300E/ER.
Certifications & Verification
This is where Sechrist's record is strongest. The company holds five FDA 510(k) clearances, all register-verified against the FDA database: K140559 (Sechrist Monoplace Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber, cleared 2014-05-30), K100268 (Sechrist Monoplace Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber, cleared 2010-04-26), K052713 (Model 3300E/ER, cleared 2005-10-28), K934164 (Model 2500E/2500ER) and K950386 (Model 3200P/3200PR).
Everything else currently rests on manufacturer statements: ISO 13485:2016 via SGS UK, MDSAP ISO 13485:2016, ASME PVHO-1, ASME BPVC Section VIII Div. 1, NFPA 99 Chapter 14, registration with the National Board of Boiler & Pressure Vessel Inspectors, IEC 60601-1 / UL 60601-1, EU MDD 93/42/EEC and EU PED 97/23/EC with EC design approvals for the 3300H, 3600H and 4100H. These claims were not confirmed against an independent register.
One point deserves attention: no register-verified EU certification appears in the dossier - the EU MDD and PED entries listed above are manufacturer statements only. The dossier documents no conflicting sources for this manufacturer.
Service & Support
Sechrist states that its products are designed, fabricated, tested and installed to ASME PVHO-1 and NFPA 99. The listed manufacturer service programs cover Annual Preventative Maintenance, PVHO-2 Cylinder Inspections, a 10-Year Tune-Up, on-site overhauls, repair and maintenance, on-site inservice and operator training through Sechrist University.
On warranty, the company advertises full warranties on equipment and parts plus optional 'Total Care' Extended Warranty Programs - but the standard warranty duration is not publicly stated, so buyers should clarify exact terms before purchase.
Who It Suits
A single-occupant monoplace chamber cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway and rated at 3.0 ATA is clinical equipment. That profile fits hospitals, wound care centers and medical practices operating under US regulatory requirements. It does not fit buyers looking for soft-sided home or wellness chambers, and operators who need to treat several patients per session would need a multiplace system, which Sechrist's verified record does not include.
The dossier contains no price range, so budgeting requires a direct quote from the manufacturer or one of its distributors.
Every data point on this profile is source-checked. Certifications are only marked as verified when confirmed in official registers - never on manufacturer claims alone.
