Optional Accessories
Visit us at www.CAIREmedical.com for more information about
optional accessories. There are many different types of oxygen
tubing, cannula, and humidifiers. The following items are recom-
mended by CAIRE Inc. for use with the Companion 5.
Salter Labs® Humidifier, CAIRE Item Number HU003-1, or
equivalent:
If your physician has prescribed an optional humidi-
fier, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. Attach the
humidifier to the oxygen outlet port of the Companion 5. Use of
optional humidifiers not recommended for the Companion 5 may
impair performance of the device and may void the warranty.
CAIRE Humidifier Adapter – Part Number 20843882:
If your
physician has prescribed an optional humidifier, you may need to
use the CAIRE Humidifier Adapter. Follow the instructions for use.
Attach the Humidifier Adapter to the oxygen outlet port of the
Companion 5 and then to the humidifier. Attach the cannula, or
oxygen tubing to the humidifier outlet.
Salter Labs Oxygen Supply Tubing, Part Number Series 2000,
or equivalent:
The internal diameter should be no less than
3/16” (0.48 cm). Connect the oxygen tubing to the outlet port of
the humidifier, or directly to the oxygen outlet port of the Com-
panion 5 if you do not use a humidifier. Connect the other end
of the tube to the nasal cannula, if oxygen supply tubing is not
already attached to the cannula. Tubing not specified for use with
this Companion 5 may impair the performance of the device.
Salter Labs Oxygen Cannula, Part Number 1600 Series, or
equivalent:
Your physician will have prescribed a cannula to
deliver oxygen. In most cases they are already attached to the
oxygen tubing. If not, follow the instructions included with the
cannula to attach it to the oxygen tubing. Use of an oxygen can-
nula not specified for use with this Companion 5 may impair the
performance of the device.
