Growing use of porous metal in medical devices
Mott's sintered porous metal products are used in medical applications requiring exact flow specifications, biocompatibility, high-temperature resistance and resistance to aggressive chemicals.
Low flow anesthesia techniques are considered a means of elimination or reducing atmospheric pollutants, as well as reducing the consumption of expensive anesthesia agents.
Mott flow restrictors are used in anesthesia delivery systems, maintaining a minimum oxygen flow and non-hazardous gas mixtures of nitrous oxide, helium and or carbon dioxide.
Mott porous metal flow restrictors are custom manufactured and calibrated to the flow and pressure specifications of each customer.
Mott restrictors have no moving parts and provide consistent, repeatable, close tolerance flow rates.
Used in conjunction with flow meters, valves, and alarm sensors of the gas circuitry, they provide the optimum balance between performance and cost effectiveness.
In addition to consistent certified flow rates, these restrictors are resistant to plugging and fouling and are constructed of non-shedding compatible materials.
Standard designs make them easily fitted into present gas circuitry designs.
