POSI-VAC NRB SYSTEM ? Product Insert - 1

POSI-VAC NON REBREATHING SYSTEM 1. The in-house vacuum is applied (connected) to the ¼” ID purple waste anesthetic gas tubing of the Posi-Vac NRB system. The negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the area between the Posi-Vac nosecone and the Posi-Vac shroud. The vacuum is adjusted to 15 LPM negative flow rate (see Vapor-Vac for device to attenuate in-house vacuum). 2. The animal’s nose (muzzle) is approximated into the Posi-Vac nosecone. Caution: The animal’s muzzle should not be tightly sealed in the Posi-Vac nosecone. The animal’s nose needs only to be approximated in the Posi-Vac nosecone such that the animal can breathe fresh anesthetic gas and oxygen. 2. The in-house vacuum draws in room air at the same time that the waste anesthetic gases are drawn around the animal’s muzzle and into the space between the Posi-Vac nosecone and the Posi-Vac shroud. 4. The waste anesthetic gases are discarded to the outside of the building and into the atmosphere and/or into an activated charcoal filter. 5. Fresh gas is supplied via the orange ¼” I.D. tubing that connects to the anesthesia machine. CAUTION: DO NOT SEAL THE ANIMAL’S MUZZLE AGAINST THE POSI-VAC NOSE CONE. THE ANIMAL’S MUZZLE NEEDS TO BE APPROXIMATED INTO THE NOSE CONE WITH ENOUGH SPACE AROUND THE MUZZLE TO ALLOW THE ANESTHETIC GASES TO FLOW AROUND THE ANIMAL’S MUZZLE AND INTO THE WASTE GAS VACUUM MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.
