The RTM3 rotameter, also known as a ball flowmeter, is a medical device designed to precisely regulate and measure the flow of medical gas administered to the patient via the respiratory tract.
It connects directly to a wall-mounted pressurized gas source, either with a direct fitting or via a standardized rail mounting system.
For optimal use, the RTM3 must be paired with a humidifier, nebulizer, or an outlet nipple/olive, ensuring safe and appropriate gas delivery to the patient.

Features

  • Pressure-compensated flowmeter – ensures perfect stability and optimal accuracy of flow, unaffected by back pressure.

  • Calibrated scale – operates at the same pressure as the pipeline for reliable measurement.

  • Expanded scale – more precise reading of low flows on 5 l/min and 15 l/min versions.

  • “Cartridge” valve – highly reliable, easy to maintain, allows for precise adjustment.

  • Perfect sealing – thanks to a polyamide seat, guaranteed leak-free closure for 5 years.

  • One-piece polyamide tube – provides increased robustness and enhanced safety.

  • Protected scale – not accessible to the patient, ensuring safe use.

  • Integrated metal filter – protects against gas line impurities (porosity: 35 microns).

  • Nickel-plated brass body – highly durable and strong.

  • Full traceability – unique serial number engraved on each unit.
