Air filter panel

Rendering Assembled

Overview

The filter panel accommodates four filter housing assemblies - two with patient tubing adapters, and two without. The filter housings are installed on a clear acrylic sheet. In case of different filters being available and/or required in particular markets or settings, this assembly can be easily redesigned and swapped out without significantly altering the rest of the ventilator design.
