Operation
Recommended Setup
The basic pump is equipped with a length of plastic tubing connecting the output
port on the Cylinder to the input port on the Valve.The lower port (Input) on the Valve
directs air to the animal while the upper port (Output) conducts air from the animal
to the room atmosphere. A “Y” Connector should be used to couple the upper and
lower port tubes to the tracheal cannula.The “Y” Connector should be placed as close
as possible to the animal in order to minimize the common pathway between inspired
and expired air.
