Description
The RT020 filter is designed for use on the expiratory port of the ventilator. When used as an expiratory filter, the RT020 is designed to prevent contamination of the ventilator and surrounding environment.
Aerosols from nebulizers, as well as airborne bacteria and viruses from the patient in the exhaled gas, are retained by the electrostatic filter media. The RT020 aims to keep the ventilator clear of contamination from pathogens, and increase protection of ventilator flow sensors from debris to preserve flow sensor accuracy.
