Description

The CO2 Absorber Cartridge with Loose Fill Standard Soda Lime is an essential component used for the removal of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the respiratory gases in medical and industrial applications. The absorber functions by capturing and neutralizing CO2, thereby maintaining safe and effective gas mixtures for patients or laboratory processes.

The canisters are prefilled with either standard soda lime or low alkali soda lime, both of which are highly effective in absorbing CO2. The standard soda lime is designed to change color from white to violet over time as it absorbs carbon dioxide. This color change provides a visible indication that the absorber is actively performing its function, allowing for easy monitoring by healthcare professionals or technicians.

The low alkali soda lime option also turns violet when CO2 is absorbed, but it differs in its chemical composition, which minimizes the risk of harmful reactions during the absorption process. The low alkali soda lime remains violet throughout the absorption cycle, signaling that the cartridge needs to be replaced.
