About the Mask
The mask system does not contain latex, PVC or DEHP materials. If the
•
patient has ANY reaction to any part of the mask system, discontinue use
and investigate the possible causes.

•
identify it as a non-vented mask for use with active exhaust non-invasive
ventilator systems only.
The mask has a standard female 22 mm tapered fitting (ISO5356-1) for
•
external connection to the ventilator.
Refer to the section "Technical Specifications" of this guide for information

about mask leak, dead space and resistance.
CAUTION
The mask must be cleaned and disinfected/sterilized if it is used between
