Handheld CPAP Pressure Manometer

The importance of accurate pressures being delivered from your CPAP or BIPAP device, cannot be overstated. This simple, but effective handheld pressure manometers makes it easy to access the accurancy of your machine's pressure output. Simply remove your mask interface, and replace it with the pressure manometer, which will fit on the end of any CPAP tubing. Once in place, turn the device on, and keep the pressure manomater perpendicular to the floor, or at a rigt angle to the floor. Allow your device to run for about one minute, to acheive proper pressure balance. Please note that if you use expiratory pressure relief features like CFLEX, EPR, SmartFlex, etc - this feature will need to be disabled in order to register an accurate reading in the manometer. Also, with BIPAP devices, you must set your inspiratory, and expiratory pressure, to the same pressure setting. Pressure manometer is accurate to 18cm h20, and is perfect for spot-checking your device, or assessing pressure settings at higher altitudes
