Cardinal Health Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter Medtronic 32.3 at 250 ml 2.6 cm @ 30 LPM, 50/BX

Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter Medtronic 32.3 at 250 ml 2.6 cm @ 30 LPM, 50/BX

This heat and moisture exchanger with filter is a pediatric breathing circuit component for infant and pediatric use. It helps streamline setup by combining HME and filter functions while keeping dead space and weight low, which can support more efficient respiratory workflows. Key specs include a gas sampling port, 31 mL dead space, and resistance of 2.6 cm at 30 LPM.

Good Fit For

• Infant and pediatric respiratory care
• Breathing circuits that need a gas sampling port
• Setups where lower dead space and lighter circuit components matter

Key Features

• Combined filter and HME format helps reduce setup time in respiratory care workflows
• Sized for infant and pediatric use with 75 to 300 mL volume range
• Low airflow resistance of 2.6 cm at 30 LPM helps minimize work of breathing
• Electrostatic hydrophobic membrane is intended to help protect against cross-contamination
• Moisture output of 32.3 at 250 ml supports effective moisture control
• Gas sampling port and 22 M / 15 F connection support circuit integration

Applications and Usage

• Adding heat and moisture exchange to infant or pediatric breathing circuits
• Supporting respiratory setups that also require gas sampling access
• Reducing component count in circuits by using a combined HME and filter design
• Managing moisture in breathing tubes to help reduce colonization risk and sampling line blockage

Packaging and Handling

• Packaging: BX.
• Size: 2.6 cm.
• This model is intended for infant and pediatric use, so buyer fit should be checked against the patient volume range of 75 to 300 mL.
• Connection type is 22 M / 15 F, which should match the intended circuit setup.
• The product details describe a combined filter and HME design, while some source attributes do not specify filter efficiency; verify internal requirements before standardizing.
