Description
Each
- Bidirectional
- Helps protect against oxygen tubing fires
- A thermal fuse (a.k.a. a firebreak) designed to stop the flow of oxygen in the event that the downstream oxygen tubing is ignited
- Helps keep patients safe no matter what method of oxygen delivery they use
- Offers a cost-effective solution to lower the risk of serious patient injury in an oxygen fire
