DEAR CUSTOMER
Thank you for buying the Diagnostic NANO nebulizer intended for inhalation. Inhalation therapy is an
efficient and safe method of treatment of respiratory diseases. The treatment should be started after
consultation with your doctor. Before the first use of the nebulizer, carefully read the instructions for use.
1. INTRODUCTION
Diagnostic NANO is a compact medical device intended for intermittent use (30 min operation, 30 min
break). Enables the medical preparation to immediately and directly reach bronchial tubes and lungs as
an inhalant. If proper precautionary measures are taken, the nebulizer will ensure appropriate treatment
quality for a number of years.
2. OPERATING DESIGN
IThe Diagnostic NANO nebulizer was designed for the treatment of asthma,
allergies and other respiratory diseases. The device produces a stream of air
led through the air tube to the nebulizer. After the introduction of air into the
nebulizer, the medical preparation will be atomized, creating an easily-inhaled
mist. The main flow of air into and out of the compressor is presented in
Figure 1.
We advise you to read this user manual in order to familiarize yourself with
the characteristics of the product. The product should not be used for other
than the intended purpose.
