How performance is affected by interfering gases and vapors
NOTE
Regarding interfering gases and vapors:
These additional errors are not corrected for automatically through the Gas Compensation selection.
Gas or Vapor Concentration CO
2 reading in Vol% at 0 Vol.% CO2
Halothane, 5 Vol% 0.02
Enflurane, 5 Vol% 0.03
Isoflurane, 5 Vol% 0.02
Sevoflurane, 5 Vol% 0.02
Desflurane, 20 Vol% 0.00
Ethanol, 4% 0.00
Isopropanol, 1 Vol% 0.00
Acetone, 1% 0.00
Methane, 3 Vol% < 0.02
NO, 100 ppm 0.01
NO
2, 50 ppm 0.00
CO, 4 Vol% 0.00
Freon R21, 100 Vol% 0.07
Freon R134a, 100 Vol% 0.19
Water vapor, 37 °C saturated 0.01
NOTE: Given readings are pure interfering gas effects, balance N2 (if applicable, without CO
2 content).
CO2 reading of mixtures (for example, CO2, O2, N2O, anesthetic agent or CO2, O2, N2, water vapor) is
within specified tolerance.
