What is a Compressor Nebuliser Used For?
A Compressor Nebuliser such as the AirForce One is a medical device designed to deliver drugs via inhalation. They are commonly used for the treatment of respiratory diseases, for example asthma. Using compressed air, the compressor will turn liquid particles into a gas form, allowing them to be inhaled and allowing the patient to take medicine in a more effective manner.
What is the Difference Between a Compressor and a Nebuliser?
The DeVilbiss AirForce One Compressor Nebuliser consists of two main components: a compressor and a nebuliser. A nebuliser is a chamber in which liquid medication is transformed into a fine mist of aerosol particles, ready for inhalation by the user. The compressor element allows this to happen by providing compressed gas to facilitate this transformation.
How Often Does the Air Filter Need Changing?
The air filter on this DeVilbiss Compressor Nebuliser must be replaced after approximately 500 hours of operation or a year of use. It is recommended that you periodically check your filter (roughly once every 10 treatments is advised) and if the filter shows a brown or grey colour, or is wet, you must replace it.
