Possible applications
The following usage options are made possible by connecting products or accessories which are
contained in the list of accessories or which satisfy the specifications of the interface description.
• A metal tube adapter (REF 5752 2746) or plastic one (REF 5752 5316) can be used to con-
nect suitable connection tubes with inner diameters of 4 mm, 6 mm and 8 mm to the flowme-
ter.

Interface description
All devices and accessories which are combined with the tapping unit must be listed in the
accessories list or meet the specifications of the interface description. Configuration of the overall
system as well as functional testing are subject to the overall responsibility of the medical staff.
Functionality and suitability of the connected accessory for each intended application must be
checked by the operator before every use. This includes the functionality of the connector
components, airtightness and suitability regarding material properties, working pressure and flow
rate.
1.5.6.1
Approved interface for compressed gas supply
In order to supply compressed gas, the tapping unit is connected to the central medical gas
supply system (CGSS) with a pressure of 500 kPa ± 10%.
The pressure in the supply line must be indicated and in the event of improper functioning must
be limited to 1000 kPa by an integrated pressure relief valve.
1.5.6.2
Flowmeter outlet
The internal thread on the accessory must match the external thread on the flowmeter
(UNF 9/16" 18 gear). Ensure that the connection between the flowmeter and the accessory is
leak-free.
1.5.6.3
Connection tube
The connection tube with an inner diameter of 4, 6 or 8 mm is connected with the tube adapter.
The connection tube may not collapse or must be pressure-resistant and must comply with the
hygiene standard of the hospital. The inner diameter of the connection tube must match the outer
diameter of the tube adapter.
