&DOLEUDWLQJ WKH 8OWLPD 'XDO $LUIORZ 3UHVVXUH 6HQVRU The Ultima Dual Airflow Pressure Sensor™ is a qualitative pressure sensor designed to measure nasal and/or oral pressure associated with human respiratory activity. For qualitative purposes, you do not need to calibrate the pressure sensor. However, you may obtain quantitative data when you calibrate the pressure sensor with a water manometer.
