IV. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
An oxygen connecting piece fitted to the side of the housing (5 mm ISO plug-in connection) enables a
connecting tube to be connected up, thereby allowing combination with an oxygen source.
The plastic housing is equipped on the patient side with a central opening with 15 mm internal diameter,
thereby allowing for connection to a 15 mm standard connector. The external diameter of the end piece/
connector is 22 mm, and is thus also compatible with all commonly used 22 mm receptacle systems.
