16.3 Care and maintenance of the air tube
If you detect condensate accumulations within the air tube, then
please detach the air tube from the nebuliser after having finished
the inhalation therapy. The air tube must however remain
connected to the air compressor. Then switch on the air
compressor. Leave the compressor turned on until the air flow
has cleared all condensate accumulations. Exchange the air tube
every 6 months at least in order to prevent germ development!
In case of reprocessing the inhalation device for re-use (different
patients!), pollutions, discolourations or damage the air tube must
be exchanged. Risk of infection!
Store the air tube in a dry and dust-free environment and
protect it from direct sunlight!
