Medical gas flowmeter, dial-type

226 devices · GMDN 61366

Medical gas flowmeters with dial-type controls are mechanical devices used to deliver precise volumes of medical gases like oxygen, nitrous oxide, or heliox during procedures such as anesthesia or surgical insufflation. They rely on a pre-calibrated dial to adjust flow rates, ensuring consistent gas delivery without measuring real-time flow—ideal for controlled environments where steady gas output is critical.

These devices are typically regulated as medical equipment under national or regional standards, often requiring calibration for specific gases and patient groups (e.g., neonates or adults). They’re commonly supplied as standalone units or integrated into larger gas delivery systems, with compliance tied to their intended use and safety standards for medical gas administration.
