Test Procedures

1. Pre-test Preparation

Check that the instrument's power supply (220V, 5A, 50Hz) is functioning correctly, and confirm that the external gas source (0-2MPa) is connected and adjustable;

Calibrate the flow sensor (ensuring an accuracy of ±1%), clean the instrument interfaces and tubing to ensure the test pathway is unobstructed.

2. Humidifier Bottle Sample Installation

Remove the humidifier bottle to be tested, check its appearance for damage, and connect the humidifier bottle to the instrument's test tubing according to the interface specifications;

Seal the connection between the humidifier bottle and the instrument, ensuring there is no risk of leakage at the interface (low-pressure gas can be pre-applied to initially verify the seal).

3. Test Parameter Settings

Select the test item (e.g., leak test, pressure test, humidification output test) via the instrument's touchscreen;

According to the YY/T 1610-2018 standard, set the corresponding test parameters: such as pressure test pressure, pressure holding time, test flow rate, etc., and save the parameters after confirmation.

4. Starting the Test

After confirming that the humidifier bottle connection and parameter settings are correct, click the "Start" button, and the instrument will automatically execute the corresponding test procedure (e.g., the leak test will monitor pressure changes, and the pressure test will stably maintain the set pressure);

During the test, the instrument will display pressure, flow rate, and other data in real time.

5. Test Process Monitoring

Observe whether the data on the instrument interface is stable. For leak tests, pay close attention to whether the pressure drops abnormally; for pressure tests, confirm that the humidifier bottle is not deformed or ruptured;

If abnormal data or equipment alarms occur, pause the test immediately and troubleshoot the problem (e.g., interface leakage, unstable gas source).

6. Test Completion and Cleanup

After the test is completed, the instrument will automatically shut down, and the test results will be recorded (e.g., whether the leakage is qualified, whether the pressure resistance value meets the standard);

Disconnect the gas source, loosen the humidifier bottle interface, remove the sample, clean the instrument tubing and interfaces, turn off the equipment power, and prepare the test report.

FAQs

1. What is the Blood Humidifying Bottle Performance Tester used for?

The Blood Humidifying Bottle Performance Tester is used to evaluate key performance characteristics of humidifying bottles, including leakage, pressure resistance, humidification output, and overflow performance. By simulating actual operating conditions during oxygen humidification, the tester verifies whether the humidifying bottle can operate safely and effectively without leakage, structural failure, or abnormal overflow. This makes the instrument an essential tool for quality inspection and performance verification of medical oxygen humidifier bottles.

2. Which specific test items can be performed with this tester?

The tester supports multiple test functions for humidifying bottles, including leak testing, pressure resistance testing, humidification output testing, and overflow testing. During testing, pressure and flow conditions can be precisely controlled, allowing the device to monitor pressure stability, flow accuracy, and performance behavior under different operating states. These test items together provide a comprehensive evaluation of humidifier bottle safety, sealing integrity, and functional effectiveness in clinical use.

3. In which applications is the humidifying bottle performance tester mainly used?

The humidifying bottle performance tester is mainly used in the quality inspection of medical oxygen humidifiers.
