NOTE: The A5/A3 anesthesia system can be mounted with vaporizers
corresponding with Halothane, Enflurane, Isoflurane, Sevoflurane and
Desflurane. Only one vaporizer can be opened at a time because of the

compliant to ISO 80601-2-13 on the A5 unit. Refer to the vaporizer
manufacturer’s Instructions For Use for filling or draining the vaporizer
and other information.
WARNING: Ensure that the correct anesthetic agent is used. The vaporizer is
designed with the specific anesthetic agent named on it and further
indicated by color coded labelling. The concentration of the anesthetic
agent actually output will vary if the vaporizer is filled with the wrong
agent.
