Caloric Irrigators - Air Fx
Air Caloric Irrigator
The Air Fx caloric irrigator delivers a precisely controlled temperature and flow rate of cool or warm air to evaluate the horizontal semicircular canal during caloric testing.
Features
The Air Fx caloric irrigator utilizes a lighted otoscope hand piece. The otoscope hand piece features replaceable tips, a magnifying lens and a cool, bright white LED light pipe for illuminating the tympanic membrane (TM) without obstructing the airflow or the view of the TM.
The Air Fx also has a long air hose of 9 feet for ease in
irrigating the patient.
The Air Fx uses a built-in reservoir and peltier device
to cool the air down to 20°C regardless of ambient room
temperature. The internal heater can raise the testing temperature to
50°C.
The Air Fx uses audible and visual
cues during testing. A bright LCD display and front-panel buttons
provide easy access to control irrigation.
The Air Fx can also work as a
standalone unit or can be interfaced with the Spectrum software.
Software Control
The Air Fx also interfaces with our
Micromedical Spectrum software via USB. When the clinician starts
irrigating the patient's ear canal, the Spectrum software begins
recording. The irrigation handle provides remote control to the
Spectrum software.
Maintenance
The Air Fx requires little attention. Simply
maintain the water level in the easily accessible coolant tank using
distilled water. A disposable speculum
tip should be used with each patient.
Reliability
The Air Fx air irrigator was designed
and is manufactured entirely at the Micromedical factory, ensuring a high level of
excellence, attention to detail, and availability of quick service.
