Variable-area flow meter RTM3

oxygenfor hospitalsplug-in type

The RTM3 flowmeter with floating ball is used to adjust and measure the flow of a gas that is to be delivered to patients through the respiratory tract. The RTM3 should be connected to a source of pressured gas on the wall either using a direct probe or a rail mounting system. It must be fitted at its outlet either with a humidifier/nebulizer or with an outlet tubing nipple. Flowmeter with compensated pressure ensuring a perfect flowrate stability and accuracy. The scale works with the same pressure than the one of the network and is not sensitive to back-pressure. Expanded scale providing higher reading accuracy for lower flowrates for 5 l/min and 15 l/min versions. Type of “cartridge” knob, extremely reliable, easy-to-clean and ensuring an optimized adjustment. Perfect tightness of the knob thanks to its polyamide seat. We guarantee the closing of the knob during 5 years without any leakage. Monoblock scale cover made of polyamide for a better sturdiness and a higher shock-resistance. No access to the scale by the patient. A metallic sieve located at the inlet of the flowmeter protects the device against impurities of the gas network and thus ensures the protection of the patient. Filter porosity: 35 microns. Body made of nickel-plated brass. Unit serial number engraved on each flowmeter body for identification and traceability
