Product catalog summary

Introduction to Medical Instrument Air
Medical Instrument Air is a type of compressed air that meets the standards set by the Instrument Society of America and NFPA. It is distributed at pressures similar to nitrogen and, despite a higher initial system cost, offers long-term savings due to its low production cost and elimination of cylinder handling.

Benefits of Using Medical Instrument Air

Cost Efficiency: It is less expensive than nitrogen on a volume basis, offering significant savings for facilities using large quantities of nitrogen.
Low Maintenance: The system requires minimal management, eliminating the need for cylinder changes and inventory management.
Safety: It is non-toxic and does not pose asphyxiation risks like nitrogen.

Implementation and Conversion
Since 2002, NFPA has allowed the use of Medical Instrument Air as an alternative to nitrogen. Facilities can convert existing nitrogen pipelines to Instrument Air systems, with BeaconMedæs providing support from savings analysis to installation.
