6.2.2 Absorber
The absorber is filled with fresh soda lime. The soda lime scrubs the CO
2
from the
respiratory gas and, because it is humidified, it prevents any absorption of
anesthetics.
Expired soda lime changes its color. The soda lime must be replaced when two thirds
of the soda lime in a canister are discolored.
