Cardinal Health DAR™ Electrostatic Filter (Small)

DAR™ Electrostatic Filter (Small)

The DAR Electrostatic Filter is a small breathing circuit filter for respiratory setups that need efficient filtration with less added bulk. It works well for buyers looking to reduce circuit weight and dead space while keeping access to end tidal CO2 monitoring and standard breathing circuit connections. This small version uses ISO standard 15 mm and 22 mm fittings, offers 99.99% efficiency, and has 35 ml dead space.

Good Fit For

• Breathing circuits where lower weight and less bulk are preferred
• Setups that need an end tidal CO2 sampling port
• Use at either the patient side or equipment side

Key Features

• Small, lightweight design helps reduce circuit bulk and weight
• Lower dead space can support setups where minimizing added volume matters
• End tidal CO2 sampling port gives convenient access for airway gas monitoring
• Low resistance to flow helps reduce work of breathing
• ISO standard 15 mm and 22 mm fittings connect to breathing circuits
• Hydrophobic media with 99.99% efficiency for filtration performance

Applications and Usage

• Adding filtration to a breathing circuit
• Supporting airway gas monitoring through the CO2 sampling port
• Reducing added circuit dead space in compact respiratory setups
• Connecting to standard 15 mm and 22 mm breathing circuit fittings

Packaging and Handling

• Packaging: EA.
• Size: 15 mm.
• This is the small filter option, which may matter when circuit size and added weight are key selection points.
• Connection fit should match the breathing circuit because the filter uses 22 mm male, 15 to 22 mm female, and 15 mm male interfaces.
• The filter is supplied clean, but no sterility detail is provided.

FAQ

• Where can this electrostatic filter be placed in the circuit? This electrostatic filter may be placed at the patient side or the equipment side.
