Product Overview
The O-ring is used to prevent leakage of vapors from Breathing Circuit Gas (BCG) in an anesthesia delivery machine. The O-ring is mounted on vaporizer ports and ensures consistent gas flow through the breathing circuit. In case of a leak in the vaporizer, the anesthesia delivery machine can function normally if the vaporizer remains switched off. But on switching on the vaporizer, the fresh gas flow is reduced with little or no vapor. A common cause of vapor leakage is the absence of O-ring or a damaged O-ring. It provides sealing to the vapors in BCG thus avoiding ambient gases mixing with vapors. It is made of flexible silicon rubber material which acts as an excellent leak source barrier in medical equipment. Silicones are a group of elastomeric materials made of polymers containing silicon, oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon
