The DIVA anaesthetic metering unit meters volatile anaesthetic. It comprises
the supply module and up to 2 metering modules. The supply module is built
into the anaesthetic gas-box. The metering modules are plug-in modules, and
can be exchanged by the user as required. The metering modules are anaes-
thetic-specific. They store a quantity of anaesthetic and meter it. There are
metering modules for the Desflurane, Isoflurane and Sevoflurane anaesthet-
ics.
The metering modules have the following properties:
–
Suitable for operation in semi-open, semi-closed and closed systems.
–
Anaesthetic-specific coding
–
Electronic fill level indicator
–

Refillable tank
The metering module feeds the metered and evaporated anaesthetic to the
supply module. The supply module and the metering modules communicate
via electrical and optical interfaces
