With new alkaline batteries, the device can run for approximately
100 minutes. This is sufficient for 5 - 8 inhalation sessions with
salt solution (depending on the dosage and length of use).
As a rule, the inhalation phase using the MEDISANA USC is
8 - 10 minutes if the active ingredient tank is filled to its
maximum of 8 ml due to the ultrasound nebulizer's high
performance. However, each inhalation session may not last more
than 15 minutes.
