The exact flowmeter you require will depend upon the flow range you need and whether you want to connect it to a hospital gas pipeline wall outlet socket or a cylinder. And, if a cylinder, what type of cylinder you intend to use.

To help you select the right product foer your needs we have put together a flowmeter options matrix.

Flowmeter Options Matrix
There are two micro flowmeter ranges available (Range A & Range E) depending upon the needs of the infant. Many neonatal departments have a number of each type to ensure that they can cover any eventuality but it really does depend on the infants concerned and your department procedures. The flow settings for the two ranges available are as follows:
