Ventilatortester ViP(ex) tension

Released by EKU Elektronik in 1997 the ViP Ventilatortester has been sold in large numbers to Europe's leading manufacturers of anaesthesia and intensive care ventilators. It is a mobile microprocessor controlled measurement meter for flow, volume, pressure and oxygen. Developed for medical and laboratory applications and especially used to test ventilators its main advantages are its high measuring precision and simplicity of use. Its wide spectrum of use lets this meter stand as an ideal unit for surveying and testing tasks. The measured values can be displayed, saved and printed by a PC programme (communication via RS232). has been sold in large numbers to Europe's leading manufacturers of anaesthesia and intensive care ventilators.

EKU has put into action the requests and suggestions of the medical engineers who have been working with the ViP Ventilatortester for many years. The expansion ViPex (tension) comes to the point. Its special feature are the three flow sensors integrated in a flexible electronic measuring unit. for many years. The expansion comes to the point. Its special feature are the three flow sensors integrated in a flexible electronic measuring unit.
 
Advantages:
  • no compliance loss, as the measuring unit is directly plugged at the device which has to be tested
  • higher measuring precision
  • device is less sensitive to disturbances
  • troublesome plugging of the single sensors does no longer apply
The following parameters were extended:
  • flow measurement even 'lower': with an additional small flow sensor for more exact measurements at minimal flow
  • flow measurement even 'higher': expansion of the field to > 200 l/min
  • bi-directional inspiratory and expiratory flow measurement with indication of the direction directly at the Y-piece
  • measuring of humidity in the respiration system
 EKU also offers the corresponding calibration service for its testing and measurement equipment. Following the current DKD Directives, calibration equipment has been developed by EKU according to ISO 9001 in order to be able to issue calibration certificates. Quality systems such as ISO 9001 make great demands on the development and the process check of assigned inspection devices. Factors like demands of the measuring device, stability of the previous calibration and the admissible range of tolerance have an influence on the calibration cycle. EKU recommends calibration once a year for the EKU testing and measurement equipment. The EKU calibration service offers an advantageous maintenance and calibration service for the customer who requires a regular calibration.
