Jupiter Inhalation Anaesthesia Vaporiser
The Jupiter is designed for use in inhalation anaesthesia using continuous-flow, off-circuit techniques. It is calibrated for a specific anaesthetic agent using a laser refractometer, ensuring a precise match between the setting and the delivered concentration. This configuration makes it suitable for protocols requiring rigorous control of anaesthetic parameters.
The device incorporates an interlock mechanism enabling secure serial connection, minimising errors when multiple devices are used simultaneously. A locking system prevents any accidental activation of the dial. Colour-coded components correspond to the anaesthetic agent cylinders, facilitating identification and reducing the risk of administration errors.
The device compensates for variations in temperature, flow rate and duration of use to maintain a constant delivery rate. It features an increased-capacity reservoir and an anti-spill mechanism, contributing to safe handling and uninterrupted use.
