Spirometer

Description

The Spirometer can be used for investigating tidal volumes,
respiratory rate, pulmonary ventilation, reserve volumes and vital
capacity. Oxygen consumption can also be measured which is
useful in metabolic studies. Product Specification: A simple lever
control enables the subject to be connected either to atmosphere
or to the float for recording. A container for soda-lime crystals is
fitted which can be used to absorb carbon dioxide. The spirometer
is designed to offer minimum resistance to air flow. This means
greater comfort for the subject and more realistic results. The tank
is one piece stainless steel pressing housed in a durable painted
outer case. Ther float is contructed from lightweight plastic. The
float is calibrated 0 to 7 x 0.5 litres and has a metal counterpoise.
The pen arm corresponds to approximately 0.5 litres. The two
corrugated breathing hoses 0.8m long are provided with two
mouth pieces and a nose clip. Instructions supplied.
External Dimensions : 720w x 320d x 230h mm.
