Oxygen flow meter

Precise oxygen delivery is not a luxury in healthcare—it is a fundamental requirement for patient safety and effective treatment. In the high-stakes environments of hospitals, clinics, and home care, an inaccurate or unreliable flow meter can compromise therapy, lead to patient discomfort, and waste critical resources. This is why medical professionals and caregivers consistently choose our precision oxygen flow meter. It is engineered to provide unwavering accuracy and durable performance, translating directly into consistent, trustworthy patient care and operational efficiency for any facility. This device is the solution to the pervasive problem of flow uncertainty, offering a clear, measurable standard for oxygen administration.

The core value of this flow meter lies in its meticulously engineered features, each designed to address a specific clinical or logistical challenge. Its high-precision rotameter core provides an accuracy of ±2% of full scale across its entire operating range, meaning a reading of 5 L/min is guaranteed to be within 4.9 to 5.1 L/min. For a clinician, this eliminates guesswork and ensures the prescribed oxygen dose is exactly what the patient receives, which is critical for conditions like COPD where too much or too little oxygen can have serious consequences. The meter features a robust, medical-grade aluminum body with a chemically resistant anodized finish. This is not merely about aesthetics; it protects against corrosive cleaning agents, physical impacts, and long-term wear, ensuring the device remains calibrated and functional for years, dramatically reducing replacement costs and downtime.

Practical usability is paramount in busy care settings. The device incorporates a large, high-visibility float and a clearly graduated scale from 0.25 to 15 liters per minute (L/min), allowing for rapid and unambiguous reading even in low-light conditions. The integrated flow control knob provides smooth, precise adjustment without the “stickiness” common in cheaper models, enabling clinicians to fine-tune delivery with confidence. Furthermore, it is designed for universal compatibility, featuring standard threaded connections (typically ½” NPT or ¼” NPT, confirm based on your specific model) that seamlessly integrate with virtually all standard oxygen tubing and delivery systems, from simple nasal cannulas to complex non-rebreather masks. This eliminates the need for costly adapters and simplifies setup.

The physical specifications underscore its suitability for diverse environments. The unit measures approximately 120mm in height and 65mm in diameter, with a lightweight profile under 300 grams. This compact form factor allows for secure mounting on an oxygen tank, a wall bracket, or a portable cart without adding significant bulk or weight. It operates effectively within a wide temperature range (0°C to 40°C) and humidity range (15% to 95% non-condensing), making it reliable from air-conditioned hospitals to more challenging field or home care settings. The device requires no external power source; it is a purely mechanical, pressure-compensated instrument that functions solely from the oxygen stream itself, guaranteeing operation during power outages and removing battery maintenance from your checklist.

The applications for this flow meter are extensive and critical across the healthcare spectrum. In a hospital’s emergency department or intensive care unit, it provides the rapid, accurate setup needed for acute respiratory distress. For long-term home care patients, its durability and ease of use empower patients and caregivers to manage therapy safely without constant professional oversight. It is equally vital in ambulance services for reliable in-transit oxygen management, in veterinary clinics for animal anesthesia and recovery, and in industrial settings where supplemental oxygen is used for welding or cutting, requiring precise flow for safety and process quality. Its versatility turns it from a single tool into a foundational piece of equipment for any operation where controlled gas flow is essential.

We stand behind this oxygen flow meter with absolute confidence because it is built to meet and exceed the rigorous demands of modern care. It is manufactured in compliance with ISO 13485 medical device quality standards and is CE marked, affirming its adherence to essential safety and performance requirements. The investment of KSh4,500.00 secures not just a instrument, but a long-term partner in patient care. It delivers measurable value through reduced oxygen waste from inaccurate metering, minimized equipment replacement costs, and enhanced staff efficiency from its user-friendly design. Most importantly, it delivers an intangible but priceless value: peace of mind. When you can trust your flow meter, you can focus entirely on the patient, knowing the oxygen therapy you administer is precisely as intended. Choose reliability. Choose precision. Choose a tool that performs without question, because in oxygen delivery, there is no room for error.
