PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Gas from the medical gas pipeline system
is entering through the inlet connector (A).
Flow is then adjusted to the requested value
by turning handwheel (B), which controls the
valve for flow regulation. The adjusted flow is
visible on the calibrated tube via the float (C).
Gas flows through the tube, when constant
flow is adjusted, the float is stabilized in a cer-
tain position (a certain flow on the scale). Gas
is delivered to the user through the flow outlet
user connection (D).
A. INLET QUICK CONNECTOR
The flowmeter is fitted to the medical gas
pipeline system terminal unit or to medical
regulator by a gas specific male probe for spe-
cific gas. There are two basic variants:
1 – inlet connector is directly mounted on the
flowmeter,
2 – connection to the rail, including hose and
inlet connector.
B. HANDWHEEL
The adjusted flow is visible on the calibrated tube (l/min) via the float. When con-
stant flow is adjusted, the float is stabilized in a certain position on the scale.
C. TUBE WITH THE FLOAT
The adjusted flow is visible on the calibrated tube (l/min) via the float. When con-
stant flow is adjusted, the float is stabilized in a certain position on the scale.
D. USER OUTLET – OUTLET CONNECTION
The "flow outlet" user connection is usually with connection for hose (hose nipple)
or threaded (for humidifier).
This outlet is for supplying a gas flow (l/min) atmospheric pressure directly to a
patient, e.g. through a cannula or a facemask.
The flow outlet shall not be used for driving any medical device.
Note also that products colour (especially handwheel) might not follow any
gas colour coding.
