This humidifier supplies, monitors and controls heat to the humidification chamber to heat the water it contains. As respiratory gas passes over the heated water, it increases in humidity and temperature.
 
It also controls heating in the heated respiratory circuits, such as the Evatherm Breathing Circuit. This heating maintains the surface of the breathing tube at a higher temperature than the humidified gas passing through, reducing the potential for condensation.

Features

Therapeutic levels of warm, humidified gas
This active, heated humidifier is designed for use with a home ventilator to provide therapeutic levels of warm, humidified gas to patients.

Temperature and humidity adjustment
There are three incremental temperature levels (low, medium and high), which facilitate temperature and humidity adjustment.

Condensate management
An Ambient Temperature Sensor monitors room temperature to enable the humidifier to manage condensation in conjunction with the heated breathing circuit.

No additional temperature probes
The Ambient Temperature Sensor is built into the system while the heater-wire adapter comes permanently attached to the unit.
