Ventilator Flow Sensor

Ventilator Flow Sensor

The Ventilator Flow Sensor accurately monitors and measures the flow of air and gases in a ventilator system. It provides real-time data on flow rates, enabling precise adjustments to ventilation settings and ensuring patient safety and comfort. The sensor is typically placed in the ventilator circuit, either at the inspiratory or expiratory port, and is essential for delivering accurate tidal volumes and respiratory rates.

This Flow sensor has been the centerpiece of all Medical ventilators. It provides you with valuable data from the airway opening, and the whole ventilation process depends on these measurements and their accuracy. Precise volume, flow, and pressure data allow for better assessment of the patient’s lung condition. We offer single-use and autoclavable flow sensors for adult, pediatric and neonatal applications.
