:
0 to 38 mmHg: ± 2 mmHg
> 38 to 150 mmHg: ± (5% of r 0.08% for every 1 mmHg
above 38 mmHg)
Accuracy applies for breath rates of up to 80 bpm. For breath
rates above 80 bpm, accuracy is 4 mmHg or ±12 % of reading
whichever is greater, for ETCO
2
values exceeding 18 mmHg.
This is tested according to and is compliant with ISO 21647. To
achieve the specified accuracies for breath rates above 60 bpm,
the Microstream FilterLine H Set for Infant/Neonatal (p/n
006324) must be used. Above 55°C module temperature,
±1mmHg or ± 2.5% (whichever is greater) has to be added to
the tolerance of the accuracy specs.

application. Respiration rates from 10-60 bpm for
adults/pediatrics as measured in 10 bpm discrete steps were
tested for 1 minute before moving forward to the next value and
at the end of this one minute period modules readings were
taken.

Max: 180 seconds (No readings until warm-up completed)
Total System Response Time
3.5 sec (typical) using standard Microstream FilterLine ®
Drift of Measurement Accuracy
Meets accuracy specifications when the calibration schedule is
followed in the General Care & Maintenance section
