Catheter Balloon Inflation Diameter Tester
Applications
The catheter cuff inflated diameter tester is mainly used to measure the diameter of the cuffs of medical devices such as endotracheal tubes and tracheostomy tubes after inflation. This measurement is crucial for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical devices during use. By accurately measuring the inflated diameter of the cuff, it can help medical staff determine the appropriate amount of inflation. This aims to effectively seal the airway, prevent gas leakage and the aspiration of secretions into the airway, while also avoiding excessive pressure on the tracheal wall. In addition, this tester also helps to reduce complications such as tracheal mucosal injury, ischemia, and necrosis caused by excessive cuff pressure, improving the safety and effectiveness of endotracheal intubation.

Technical Parameters
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Testing Range | Usually covers a pressure range of 0 - 10 kPa (or 0 - 1.45 psi) to meet inflation requirements of different cuffs |
| Accuracy | High accuracy (e.g., 0.5%FS full-scale error) to ensure test result accuracy |
| Air Source Pressure | Generally does not exceed 0.7 MPa; air source needs to be provided by the user |
| Air Source Interface | Usually a Φ8 mm polyurethane tube, for easy connection to air source equipment |
| External Dimensions | Compact design for portability:- Main unit: ~300 mm(L)×410 mm(W)×150 mm(H)- Device: ~215 mm(L)×215 mm(W)×240 mm(H) |
| Weight | Moderate (about 25kg) for easy handling and operation |
| Testing Principle | Adopts positive-pressure testing principle: Inflates the cuff with air to stretch/unfold wrinkles (minimizing cuff wall tension), then measures the inflated diameter |
Accessoriess
Standard configuration: Main unit, hydraulic tank, miniature printer, customized connectors
Note: The air source interface of this machine is a Φ8 mm polyurethane tube; the air source must be provided by the user.
