The Abcan – 1.1L disposable CO2 absorber

The AbCan™ is our new 1.1L disposable CO2 absorber to further extend our absorbents range.

The AbCan™ is an easy to use disposable absorber that has been developed specifically for clinical use during anaesthesia to absorb carbon dioxide within an anaesthetic breathing system. It also offers a fast and easy exchange, an efficient CO2 absorption, an air-tight seal for storage, and no dust emission.

It is supplied with Spherasorb our unique medical grade CO2 absorbent designed specifically for clinical use, Spherasorb has a long history of use within anaesthesia and meets all the requirements of the United States and British Pharmacopoeias. Spherasorb’s chemical formulation has been developed specifically to address the potential problems of use within the medical environment, while maintaining the highest possible CO2 capacity.

The AbCan is compatible only with the Getinge® (formerly Maquet®) Anaesthesia Delivery Systems, Flow-i™ C20, C30, C40, Flow-c™ and Flow-e™. It is essential that the user follows both the instructions for use of the Getinge® Flow-i™, Flow-c™ and Flow-e™ Anaesthesia Delivery Systems and also the instructions for use supplied with each box of Intersurgical AbCan absorbers.
