Maxtec Precision Medical R219P20 Mode D'emploi page 4

DESCRIPTION
The Blender Buddy is a manifold accessory designed to be attached to an outlet port of
an air/oxygen blender. From the blender outlet port, the air/oxygen mixture passes into
a primary or a primary and a secondary channel within the Blender Buddy manifold.
The primary channel is used to deliver the gas to a set of flowmeters which meter
the gas flow by means control valves. The secondary channel is a small channel that
empties into a cavity (port) sized to receive a galvanic oxygen sensor; this port fits the
Maxtec line of oxygen analyzers and is used to analyze oxygen concentration of the
air/oxygen mixture to be delivered to a patient. The Blender Buddy can be configured
with various sized color coded flowmeters for customized flow rate delivery to patients.
Flowmeters are sold separately.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
This Blender Buddy is intended for use in conjunction with a Precision Medical
oxygen blender. The Blender Buddy allows the operator of a blender to supply a mixed
gas through a set of flowmeters. Blender Buddies designed with bleeds include an
extra analyzer port for analyzing the oxygen concentration of the air/oxygen mixture
being delivered to a patient.
