💡
Excursus: Large technology, small nebulization unit –the mesh technology
With the SaHoMa®-II mesh nebulization unit you are holding a highly innovative
product in your hands that should be handled as carefully as possible - your
horse will be grateful.
The SaHoMa®-II mesh nebulization unit works with the innovative mesh
technology. A perforated disc is used in combination with a piezo ceramic. Due
to the resulting pumping function, the medication is pressed through the small
holes and made available in their size as aerosol. The holes in the very filigree
mesh disc are about 20 times thinner than a human hair, so they are hardly
visible to the naked eye.
Another major advantage: When using mesh nebulization units, almost no heat
that could influence the effectiveness of the medication is generated during the
nebulization process.
⚠
ATTENTION!
The SaHoMa®-II inhalation set for horses contains small parts that can be
swallowed. Therefore, always keep them out of the reach of children or animals. If
parts are accidentally swallowed, consult a doctor/veterinarian immediately!

2Getting started with the SaHoMa-II inhalation set for horses
Please follow the steps described below before using the SaHoMa®-II inhalation set
for horses.
Connecting the SaHoMa®-II fastening strap with the SaHoMa®-II housing
Set the SaHoMa®-II fastening strap as wide as possible and connect it with the
SaHoMa®-II housing. To do this, fix both quick fasteners in the holders on the
SaHoMa®-II housing. Make sure that the SaHoMa®-II fastening strap is attached to the
SaHoMa®-II housing with the adjustment possibility on the left side (seen from the
horse’s perspective) in order to ensure a perfect fit of the SaHoMa®-II fastening strap
later on.
