Designed to retain a portion of the patient’s expired moisture and heat, returning them to the respiratory tract during inspiration
Removes microbiological and particulate matter from the gases in the breathing circuit
Volume of filter is substantial enough to assist in preventing total saturation of the filter by fluid secretions
Low dead space minimizes risk associated with re-breathing of carbon dioxide
Lightweight feature reduces torque on tracheal connection
Maximizes the humidity of inspired gases
Latex-free
