Note: The amount of water in a Standard Concha-Column decreases as water is used,
increasing the compressible volume as water is consumed.

General System Characteristics

Pressure Drop or Resistance to Flow:
System Circuits, Concha Column and Water Reservoir shall be in compliance to ISO 8835-2 for
Pressure Drop (Resistance to Flow). See individual circuit "Instructions For Use" for Resistance
to Flow data.
System Pressures:
The ConchaTherm circuits are designed to exceed the ISO/CD 5367 standard of 60 cm/H
(6 +/- 0.3 kPa), and are tested to perform at 90 cm/H
System Leakage:
System leakage (Circuit, Concha-Column and Water Reservoir) will have a combined leakage of
less than 25 ml/minute at 60 cm/H
Noise Levels:
The humidifier noise level under normal operation conditions shall be less than 50 dB measured
1 meter from the device, except while audible alarms are active.

Operating Temperature:
Note: Operating the humidifier at the extremes of the operating temperature may affect the
temperature output of the device and/or cause nuisance alarms. The humidifier works ideally
at a room temperature of 22 to 26 °C (72 to 79 °F).
