Description
Anaesthetic equipment accessory which is a mobile unit with lockable wheels. The SID Dock is a Class II electrical medical device that integrates with the waste gas flow from an anaesthetic machine so that the waste volatile agents can be captured. The SID-Dock captures waste volatile anaesthetic gases from the anaesthetic machine exhaust stream. The waste anaesthetic gas is absorbed onto the SID-Cans inside the device. The integral screen on top of the device illustrates the capacity level of the SID-Cans and indicates when SID-Cans should be changed. There is a safety bypass mechanism to prevent a blockage affecting the anaesthetic machine function. The goods are packaged with a cardboard outer and cardboard internal packing material. The weight of the SID-Dock is 21kg. Height 788mm, Width 504mm, Depth 411mm.
