INOmeter Operation
•
Removal of the INOmeter from the cylinder must be performed by authorized personnel. Do not
dispose of the INOmeter.
•
INOmeter battery replacement is only to be performed by authorized personnel.
•
The INOmeter replaces the standard rubberized cylinder valve handle on the INOMAX cylinders and
is used to open and close the cylinder valve. The INOmeter is a time-metric device which records the
amount of time the INOMAX cylinder valve is opened.
•
The INOmeter is designed for use with INOMAX cylinders and with the INOvent, INOmax DS and
INOmax DS
IR
delivery systems.
•
When used with INOmax DS
IR
, two-way infrared (IR) communication occurs between the
INOmax DS
IR
and the INOmeter. The INOmeter communicates the INOMAX cylinder concentration
and the expiration date to the INOmax DS
IR
. Patient ID (when confirmed) and dose information are
communicated from the INOmax DS
IR
to the INOmeter.
