1. Intended Use
VH-1500 Respiratory Humidifier is designed to warm and add
humidity to gases for patients who require respiratory support.
The warm and moisture are supplied by passing the gas over the
surfa e of heated water in humidifi ation hamber.
The produ t has 9 temperature settings.
The highest power level presents the highest level of vaporized
water.
Attention：
：：
：
● If sti ky sputum takes pla e under high heater level, humidifier
with servo- ontrol is re ommended for usage.
● For patients with low temperature (ex. infants) respiratory
humidifier with servo- ontrol is re ommended for usage.
Caution：
：：

●
●●
●No modifi ation is allowed.
●
●●
●Do not try to dismantle or/and repair the devi e by yourself if it

The repro essing of the a essories:
● Breathing ir uit:
1. Dismantle all omponents ex ept the stainless steel spring
atta hed to the body of water trap
2. Clean the parts with low flow running water, using a soft
brush to remove all foreign material. (for example, soil or
organi matter)
3. Sterilization by auto lave: 132℃/ 4minutes.
● Chamber:
1. Dismantle all omponents ex ept the stainless steel spring
atta hed to the body of water trap
2. Clean the parts with low flow running water, using a soft
brush to remove all foreign material. (for example, soil or
organi matter)
3. Sterilization by auto lave: 132℃/ 4minutes.
● Filter:
1. Take ouplings apart from the filter and use detergent
ompatible with polysulfone to lean the shell of filter with a
damp loth.
2. The filter has to be sterilized before use and reuse. VADI
only re ommends steam auto laving with wrapping the filter
in sterilization pou h at temperature at 132℃ for 4 minutes
(require at least 20 minutes drying y le after sterilization),
omplying with the steam auto lave manufa turer’s
instru tions .

a ordingly.
Attention:
● Water vapor in humidifi ation hamber is observed during
normal operation.
● If there is no flow, turn off the humidifier.
● Water traps are re ommended for use to olle t water
ondensation due to differen es in temperature.
● Absorbent paper is re ommended for usage to in rease the
temperature and moisture performan e.
● It is not allowable to heat the hamber without distilled water.
