The SS45L pneumotach can perform a variety of pulmonary measurements relating to airflow, lung volume and expired gas analysis. Each transducer type consists of an airflow pneumotach head coupled to a precision, highly sensitive, differential pressure transducer (RX137A with SS40L). The pneumotachs will connect directly to a breathing circuit or plethysmogram chamber. For airflow and lung volume measurements, connect a short airflow cannula to the pneumotach flow head. For replacement head, see RX137A. For switchable or replacement head options, see the RX137 Series.
The SS45L pneumotach is equipped with an internal heating element that can be optionally attached to the AC137A 6-volt power supply.
