The auxiliary flowmeter monitoring board is the core control part of the auxiliary flowmeter of
the anesthesia machine. It is mainly used at a low flow of 0–15 L/min and can work
independently. The flow sensor is welded on the board. The auxiliary flowmeter monitoring
board controls the O2/air flow through the proportional valve, and monitors and feeds back the
O2/air flow through the flow sensor. In addition, the auxiliary flowmeter monitoring board also
drives the three-way valve. This board is configured with auxiliary O2/air software.
