How to I connect the VT650, VT900/VT900A for testing ventilators?

The connection to our gas flow analyzers changes depending on the testing you are about to do.

If you are testing breath parameters or bi-directional flow the connection should be a Y connector on the flow inlet side and a calibrated test lung on the flow exhaust side. Always use an antibacterial filter on the inlet side to elongate the life and accuracy of your gas flow analyzer.

When testing uni-directional flow or concentration measurements the DUT simply needs to be connected to the flow inlet side using an antibacterial filter.

How do I save, retrieve, or print test results from VT650, VT900, VT900A/VAPOR?

Saving results is easy on any of these units. From any screen there is a blue box in the bottom right called “Save”. Press on this button and you are able to save your results as data, a graph, a recording or under a new Test ID. These results can then be recalled from the onboard memory under “Menus” and “Memory”.

What is VAPOR?

The VAPOR Anesthesia Tester is an accessory to the VT900A that allows for preventive maintenance / efficacy testing of vaporizers. VAPOR can test the concentration of 5 major anesthetic agents, CO2 and N2O.
