How the nebulizer kit works

The medication that is pumped up through the medication channel is mixed with compressed air which is generated by a compressor pump.
The compressed air mixed with medication is turned into fine particles and sprayed when in contact with the baffle.

Nebulizer Kit with Advanced Valve Technology (AVT)

The X105 Advanced nebulizer is equipped with a breath-enhanced valve system which allows the maximum amount of medication to be inhaled by the patient. It optimizes the flow of medication during inhalation and reduces medication loss during exhalation.
By synchronizing the flow of aerosol with the breathing, the therapeutic effect of the inhaled medication is optimized.
Note: Only using the mouthpiece enables the synchronized functioning of the nebulizer!

Inhalation phase
During inhalation, the inhalation valve (A) opens and air enters the nebulizer.
The air is mixed with the generated aerosol (B) and inhaled through the mouthpiece by the patient (C).
In this phase the exhalation valve (D) remains closed preventing aerosol from being wasted.

Exhalation phase
When exhaling through the mouthpiece, the inhalation valve (A) of the nebulizer closes, preventing aerosol to leave
the nebulizer. The aerosol generated remains in the nebulizer and becomes available for the next inhalation phase. The exhaled air leaves the mouthpiece through the exhalation valve (D).

How to use

Make sure that the power button is in OFF position. (The power indicator is off.)

Insert the power cord into the compressor socket and then plug the power plug into a power outlet.
Note: Do not place the device in a location where it is difficult to disconnect the power cord.

Remove the inhalation top from the medication tank.

• Rotate the inhalation top anti-clockwise.
•  Lift the inhalation top out of the medication tank

Verify that the vaporizer head is attached to the inhalation top. Add the correct amount of prescribed medication into the medication tank. Be sure to follow the instructions regarding the minimum and maximum fill volumes (see Technical data). If the nebulizer kit contains too little or too much medication; the nebulization, and thus also the treatment, will be greatly impaired.

Put the inhalation top back onto the medication tank.

• Lower the inhalation top on the medication tank.
• Rotate the inhalation top clockwise.

Using the mouthpiece

• Assemble the mouthpiece.
  Make sure that the valves are properly attached. Refer to this drawing.

• Attach the mouthpiece to the nebulizer kit and press the cap onto the inhalation top.

• Keep the mouthpiece in the mouth during both inhalation and exhalation in order to get the maximal benefit by the valve system.

Note: Infants or any patients who have particular needs should use the mask instead of the mouthpiece. When using a mask, make sure the cap is removed from the inhalation top.

Caution:
In order to remove the mouthpiece from the nebulizer kit, it is important to detach first the cap from the inhalation top and then pull it out. Do not reverse this sequence!   Using the adult mask

•  Attach the adult mask to the nebulizer kit.

  Using the child mask and adapter

• Attach the child  mask to the support adapter and connect it to the nebulizer kit.

Attach the air tube. While twisting the air tube plug slightly, push it firmly into the air tube connector. Hold the nebulizer kit as indicated on the right. Follow the instructions of your doctor or respiratory therapist. Caution:
Do not tilt the nebulizer kit at an angle of greater than 30 degrees in all directions. Medication may flow into the mouth or it may result in ineffective nebulization.

Power on the compressor by pressing the power button; the blue power indicator is lit. As the compressor starts, nebulization begins, and aerosol is generated. Gently inhale the medication. Exhale through the mouthpiece.

When treatment is completed, press the power button again to power off the device. Then unplug the compressor from the power outlet.
