HOW TO USE THE RF9 NEBULISER WITH PARTICLE SIZE REGULATOR AND VALVE SYSTEM
It is professional, quick, recommended for administering all types of medicinal products, even in patients with chronic
diseases. The valve system optimises the dispensing of the nebulised medicinal product to the patient and limits its
dispersion in the environment. Moreover, thanks to the particle size regulator, the size of nebulised particles can be
selected based on the respiratory system area where the medication is to be delivered. Indeed, with the 4 available
modes, the bowl can dispense particles of different sizes:
RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM
UPPER AIRWAYS
LOWER AIRWAYS

(1) In vitro testing performed by TÜV Rheinland Italia S.r.l. in collaboration with the University of Parma and in compliance with the EN 13544-1: 2007 + A1
European Standard for aerosol therapy devices Standard. More details are available on request.
(2) Data measured according to Flaem I29-P07.5 internal procedure Dispensing speed values may vary according to the patient’s respiratory capacity. More
details are available on request.
(3) Data calculated on the basis of the values obtained with Malvern Spraytec, and compared with the values of the tests performed at the University of Parma.

3. Insert and press the previously assembled particle size regulator (C1.1) all the way down, keeping it in a horizontal
position, in the upper part (C1.2), and matching the partitions of the selector (C1.1c) with the groove in the upper
part (C1.2).
