Resstance of Breathng System
The resstances that follow are tested wth a flow of 10 L/mn of ar through the fresh gas nlet, and the flow rates shown below
that were delvered to the patent Y-pece
Flow rate Breathng crcut Resstance value
30 L/mn Adult breathng hoses 22 mm x 13 m long, plus a Y pece wth patent flter 49 hPa
15 L/mn Paedatrc breathng hoses 15 mm x 18 m long plus a Y pece wth patent flter 39 hPa
25 L/mn Paedatrc breathng hoses 15 mm x 18 m long plus a Y pece wth patent flter 31 hPa
NOTE
1 A bacteral flter must be used n the patent breathng system to protect the oxygen sensor
Use an approprate flter that does not rase the resstance values of the whole system to above 06 kPa (6 cmHO)
2 At a flow of 60 L/mn, the expratory resstance s less than 06 kPa
Internal ompressble Volume
NOTE The reservor bag s not ftted, and the bag mount s blocked, when measurements are taken
onfguraton Volume requred to rase the system pressure to 3 kPa (30
