TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR PERFORMANCE—BREATHING
SIMULATOR
The performance checks shown on page 32 were measured by use of a
breathing simulator.
WARNING:
Due to excessive restriction of valves in the Controller, reduced
performance levels may result when gas supply pressures
< 50 psi (345 kPa) are used.
For these checks, we used a compressed gas supply of 50 to 55 psi
(345 to 379 kPa) and the Breathing Simulator settings shown here:
