OVERVIEW
Forced Vital Capacity is the maximum expiration after taking a full breath, it’s an important examination content in
chest-lung disease and respiratory health, and it is indispensable testing project in modern Pulmonary inspection.
At the same time, it has great signicance in respiratory diseases, differential diagnosis, treatment evaluation and
selection of surgical indications. Thus, with the rapid development of clinical respiratory physiology, clinical applications of lung capacity inspection are also gaining popularity.
The SPIROMETER is small in volume, low in power consumption, convenient in operation and portable. With
high-denition display screen, the device is concise and fashion. It is only necessary for patient to breath in fully
and seal the lips around the mouthpiece and blast the air out in best times for measure, then the display screen
will directly show the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expired Volume in one second (FEV1), Peak Expiratory
Flow (PEF) with the high veracity and repetition.
2.1 Features
1) Ultra-thin design, concise and fashion.
2) Small in volume, light in weight and convenient in carrying.
3) Low power consumption.
4) TFT display.
5) Reect lung function by measuring FVC, FEV1, PEF etc.
2.2 Major Applications and Scope
The SPIROMETER is a hand-held equipment for examining lung function. The product is t for hospital, clinique,
family for ordinary test. It’s only required that the user operates it according to user manual, no need for specialized training,so the operation of the device would be as simple and easy as possible.

PRINCIPLE
Firstly, testee deep inspires, then seals the lips around the mouthpiece and blasts all air out as forcefully as possible, the exhalant gas transforms to rotary airow by turbine, then makes the blade rotate. The reception part of the
infrared pair diodes (one is for infrared emission, the other is reception) towards to the blade is used for receiving
the infrared ray, when the blade rotates, the received ray strength of the reception diode will be different as the
difference of the blade angle, so form the various signal of same proportion in reception diode, which forms acquisition signal by SCM after processing. At last, various parameters to be measured formed from the information
which were processed by the microprocessor, and displayed from the screen.

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reection from structures, objects and people.
a. Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to xed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site
survey should be considered. If the measured eld strength in the location in which the SP10 is used exceeds
the applicable RF compliance level above, the SP10 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the SP10.
b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and
the spirometer (SP10)
The spirometer (SP10) is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances
are controlled. The customer or the user of the spirometer (SP10) can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and
the spirometer (SP10) as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.

100 11,70 11,70 23,30
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d
in metres (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the
maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reection from structures, objects and people.
