Description

Welch Allyn's Generation 4 Spirometer Flow Transducers are designed for seamless integration with the CP150 spirometer, enhancing pulmonary function testing with precision and hygiene. These disposable, single-patient-use transducers are essential for accurate spirometry measurements, ensuring that each test is conducted without the risk of cross-contamination.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Specifically engineered for use with the Welch Allyn CP150, as well as the Diagnostic Cardiology Suite PC-Based Spirometer and CPWS 5.
• Hygienic Design: Eliminates the need for bacteria filters and disinfection by preventing expired air from entering the pressure tubing.
• Accurate Measurement: Supports up to six forced vital capacity (FVC) efforts per test, crucial for both pre- and post-medication assessments.

Design and Usage

The transducer's handle design allows for easy handling without obstructing the screen, thus preventing back-pressure. Proper connection and calibration are required to ensure accurate operation, making these transducers a reliable component in pulmonary assessments.

Hygiene and Safety

• Single Use: Each transducer should be used once and then discarded to maintain hygiene standards.
• Handling Precautions: It is recommended to wear protective gloves when replacing transducers and to wash hands after handling.
• Care Instructions: Avoid biting or obstructing the transducer during use, and replace if damaged or contaminated.

Packaging Options

Available in boxes of 25 or 100, these transducers offer flexible packaging to meet different institutional needs. The product codes for these packaging options are provided for easy identification.

Maintenance and Calibration

Ensure a tight, leak-free connection during calibration. Recalibration is advised if the flow sensor is dropped or if measurement values appear inconsistent. Additionally, pressure tubing should remain free of kinks or obstructions to maintain optimal performance.

Welch Allyn's commitment to quality and precision in medical devices is exemplified in these flow transducers, making them a vital tool for healthcare professionals conducting spirometry tests.
