General Description
The LT-1 is an electrically powered, dry warmer which
supplies external heat to the plastic tubing incorporated
in enteral nutrition administration sets. The enteral
nutrition administration set is placed in the ‘S’ shaped
channel in the aluminum heating plates. The device
is available in 5mmØ (size
diameter 4.1 ~ 5.0) model for tubing size.
Operating temperature:

¤ýBenefits
|
| |
| |
|
1) |
Warming
assists powdered nutrition mixtures to dissolve
completely |
|
|
| |
|
2) |
Automatic
regulation
The temperature of the warming plate adjusts
according to the desired temperature of the
effluent. |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
3) |
No
disposables
No special warming bags or coils are required.
|
|
|
| |
|
4) |
Less
heat loss after warming
Small size necessitates minimal tubing between
the patient and the unit preventing cooling
of the infused fluid. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
5) |
Quick
set-up
The tube is inserted directly into the warmer;
no priming or disposable preparation is required. |
|
|
| |
|
6) |
Rapid warm-up
Ready to use in 2 ~ 3 minutes |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
7) |
Safe
performance
Protection from overheating, electric shock
and contamination. |
|
|
| |
|
8) |
High
durability
Simple construction and shock resistant casing. |
|
