Dr. Frei Turbo Base Aerosol Device n nWhat is a nebulizer and how does it work? n nThe compressor nebulizer is a device that transforms a medicinal substance from liquid form into aerosols under the action of compressed air. The nebulizer directs the aerosol, which contains large and small particles, into the respiratory tract. Following the action of the gravitational force, large particles are deposited on the walls of the upper respiratory tract, and small particles manage to reach the bronchioles. Thus, the medicinal substance reaches the highest doses in all sections of the bronchial tree, including the smallest bronchi, having insignificant or zero adverse reactions. n nWhen can nebulization therapy be applied? n nNebulizers are used in case of: n n acute respiratory diseases, n obstructive pulmonary disease, n chronic inflammatory processes of the respiratory tract, such as chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma (including chronic and unstable cases, as well as exacerbation of bronchial asthma), chronic pharyngitis, n respiratory tract infections, dysregulation of the quality of secretions and secretion in the bronchi, n various types of cough. n nThe advantages of nebulization therapy Inhalation therapy makes large doses of medicinal preparation act quickly on the focus of the disease, which increases the effectiveness of the treatment followed and reduces the risk of developing adverse effects on other organs. Inhalation therapy also ensures the economical consumption of medicinal substance. Treatment with aerosols using the nebulizer can be followed by children, the elderly and weakened patients. n n Technical Specifications n n Turbo Base model n Mains adapter 100 - 240 V ~ , 50 / 60 Hz, max 0.5 A n Adapter AC 12.0 V 1 A n Input unit DC 12V, 1A n Noise level ≤ 55 dB n Medicine container capacity 10 ml n Particle size 3 μm n Spray speed MMAD ≥ 0.3 ml/min n Frequency of use 20 minutes ON, 40 minutes OFF n Permissible operating temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure 10°C ~ 40°C, ≥ 85% relative humidity 860 ~ 1060 hPa n Allowable temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure for transportation and storage -10 °C ~ 40 °C, ≥ 85% relative humidity 860 ~ 1060 hPa n Degree of pollution Grade 2 n Overvoltage category Category ll n Maximum operating height, m 2000 n Dimensions, mm 110 (W) x 110 (H) x 62 (D) n n The set of accessories contains n n Mouthpiece n Mask for adults n Mask for children n Container for medicinal substances - upper part n Container for medicinal substances - lower part n Container for medicinal substances - air hole n Spray head n Air hose n
