GE Datex Ohmeda TEC 7 Isoflurane Vaporizer

The GE Datex Ohmeda Tec 7 Isoflurane anesthesia vaporizer delivers isoflurane effectively and efficiently. Each agent-specific Tec 7 vaporizer incorporates significant performance, convenience and ergonomic benefits with important safety features to help improve agent delivery and reliability while reducing overall operating costs. This vaporizer provides output consistency with the dial setting throughout the clinical flow range.

• Two filling options: Easy-Fil and Funnel Fill.
• The Easy-Fil filler is designed to simplify agent filling and help minimize agent leaks while filling.
• Large diameter control dial which incorporates fine graduations of 0.2% between 0 and 1%, and 0.5% from 1 to 8%.
• Ergonomic agent dial release on the Tec 7 vaporizer allows either left or right-hand operation.

Pneumatics

• Calibration: The dials of the Tec 7 isoflurane vaporizers are calibrated to 5% v/v and can be increased in steps of 0.2% up to 1%, and in steps of 0.5% from 1% to 5% at 21°C using O2 at 5 L/min as the carrier gas.
• Calibration of Sevoflurane
• The dial of the Tec 7 Vaporizer for sevoflurane is calibrated to 8% v/v
• Dial is marked in steps of 0.2% up to 1% v/v, and in steps of 1% between 1% and 8%
• Resistance to Gas Flow
• “OFF”: Isolated, no resistance from vaporizer
• “ON”: 5 L/min O2: 10 to 15 cm H2O at 21°C ±2°C
• Accuracy
• 5 L/min O2 @ 21°C ± 2°C:
• Vaporizer 5%: ±0.25% of delivered agent or ±15% of dial setting (whichever is greater)
• Vaporizer 8%: ±0.4% of delivered agent or ±15% of dial setting (whichever is greater)
• Flowrate: Vaporizers are designed to provide consistent output throughout the clinical flow range from 200 mL/min to 15 L/min.

Operating Conditions

• Temperature: 18° to 35°C/64° to 95°F
• Humidity: 30% to 75% relative humidity (non-condensing)
