McKesson Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter 29.2 mg H2O / L @ VT 500 mL 2.5 cm H20 @ 30 LPM

Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter 29.2 mg H2O / L @ VT 500 mL 2.5 cm H20 @ 30 LPM

This heat and moisture exchanger with filter is a mini in-line HME for short-term airway humidification in breathing systems. Buyers may choose it for ventilator or anesthesia circuit setups that need moisture retention, filtration, and convenient end tidal CO2 sampling access in a compact format. This version offers 29.2 mg H2O/L moisture output at VT 500 mL, 99.9% bacterial and viral filtration efficiency, and supports tidal volumes from 150 mL to 1000 mL.

Good Fit For

• Ventilator breathing systems
• Anesthesia circuits
• Short-term airway humidification workflows
• Setups needing in-line CO2 gas sampling access

Key Features

• Mini in-line HME with filter supports short-term airway humidification in breathing systems
• 29.2 mg H2O/L moisture output at VT 500 mL helps retain heat and moisture for return to the patient
