New EKU ELEKTRONIK ARCUS

The portable, full electronic stand alone inhalation anaesthesia unit ARCUS offers with the electronic gas mixer EGAMIX a compact anaesthesia unit according to the latest technology. Its wall version is used for the induction. Developed for mobile use and integrated in a mobile transport case the ARCUS-C P offers fast readiness for use as well as space for vaporizer and accessories during the transport. The ARCUS-CPT forms a durable case system from the single devices anaesthesia unit ARCUS-C P, Multi-Monitor MM1 and the cylinder supply. For the operation it can be put up to table height. For transport it is assembled as a mobile trolley. Everything is locked mechanically with one another. Sufficient space for accessories and pluggable sensors make the ARCUS-C PT the ideal transportable anaesthesia unit. Combined with a dust- and water-protected ultra-robust notebook as a large 10,4" supervising monitor for anaesthesia logging, activity recording and service documentation it fulfils the expectations of a mobile anaesthesia working place. Compared to the conventional mechanical rotameter its considerable simplification of work is done by full automatic electronic control and supervision of the adjusted parameters. You just enter the required total fresh gas flow as well as the oxygen concentration and the dosage is automatically set by the electronic gas mixer. A minimum of routine work is left to the anaesthetist by automatic dosage and self-supervision of the anaesthesia unit ARCUS.

Functions:
• electronic supervision of the adjusted gas dosage
• self testing and control of the single components in ‘standby’ mode
