The disposable 3-Way Manifold comes with a hanger that can be attached to a hanger arm to help position or keep the breathing circuit in place.
Resistance: < 1.63 cmH2O @ 60 LPM.
The 3-Way Manifold is attached to the single limb breathing circuit to regulate the expiratory valve. The control line from the ventilator controls the opening of the valve to enable air to flow in and out accordingly.
This line intermittently provides the pressure needed to close the expiratory valve during inspiration, which blocks gas outflow during the application of inspiratory positive pressure. This is done to ensure the patient receives optimal gas exchange conditions.
