Dual_Diverter_Manifold Product Insert PS

Product catalog summary

Introduction:
The Dual Diverter Manifold is designed to split the fresh gas supply, which includes anesthetic and carrier gases like O2, Med Air, N2O, N2, into two streams. One stream is directed to the Induction Chamber using red color-coded tubing, and the other to the NRB system using orange color-coded tubing. The flow is controlled by color-coded stopcocks, and at least one stopcock must remain open to prevent pressure build-up.

Installation:
The manifold can be installed on MIP PAM or Compact Convertible Anesthesia Systems using a 3/8” hole in the PAM leg. A Universal Mounting Bracket is available for other systems. Key steps include installing a stainless steel rod, attaching silicone tubing to the Vaporizer Outlet Adapter, and connecting color-coded tubing to the respective stopcocks and systems.

Operation:
1. Open the red stopcock for the Induction Chamber.
2. Set the primary flow meter to approximately 2 LPM.
3. Place the subject in the Induction Chamber.
4. Adjust the vaporizer to the desired concentration.
5. Once the subject is equilibrated, turn off the vaporizer after about 3 minutes.
6. Remove the subject from the Induction Chamber.
7. Open the orange stopcock for the NRB system.
8. Close the red stopcock for the Induction Chamber.
9. Place the subject in the NRB system's Nose Cone.
10. Reactivate the vaporizer to the desired concentration.
11. Adjust the primary flow meter to 500cc – 1 LPM.
Note: Ensure a Waste Anesthetic Gas (WAG) Management System is in place before anesthetizing the subject.

Expertise In Research ArwsttiEsLa, Equipment And Supplies Dual Diverter Manifold The Dual Diverter Manifold is used to facilitate the splitting of the fresh gas supply (anesthetic and carrier gas - 02, Med Air, N20, N2, or any combination of carrier gases) into two streams. One stream is directed towards the Induction Chamber (red color coded tubing), the other is directed towards the NRB system (nose cone / face mask - orange color coded tubing). The flow of fresh gas is controlled by color coded stopcocks on the Dual Diverter Manifold. When the stopcock lever is positioned parallel with the tubing, fresh gas will flow. It is important to have at least one stopcock open when the primary carrier gas flow meter is turned open and carrier gas is flowing. This will prevent excessive build-up of pressure in the delivery system. The Dual Diverter Valve stopcocks, tubing, and adapters at the end of the tubing — as well as the MIP Induction Chambers and NRB systems — are all color coded to aid the user in setting up the correct flow to the desired delivery appliances.

Installation: The Dual Diverter Manifold can be installed on any MIP PAM or Compact Convertible Anesthesia System utilizing the 3/8” hole in the top of each PAM leg that will accept the Dual Diverter Manifold stainless steel mounting rod. If you do not have a PAM or Compact Convertible, a Universal Mounting Bracket can be used to mount the Dual Diverter Manifold onto any of MIP’s inhalant anesthesia platforms – or any other manufacturer’s. 1. Install 3/8 inch stainless steel rod with Dual Diverter Manifold into hole in top right (as facing machine) of PAM Leg. a. Use thumbscrew provided to tighten...
