Thank you for purchasing the OMRON COMP AIR.
This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory therapists for the successful
treatment of asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergies and other respiratory disorders. The
compressor forces air to the nebuliser kit. When the air enters the nebuliser kit, it converts
the prescribed medication into an aerosol of microscopic droplets that can easily be inhaled.
This is a medical device. Operate the device only as instructed by your doctor and/or
respiratory therapist.
NE-C24 Kids includes the kids accessories to enable children to feel more comfortable
while inhaling. It improves compliance with drug treatment.
How the nebuliser kit works
The medication that is pumped up through the medication
channel is mixed with compressed air which is generated
by a compressor pump. The compressed air mixed with
medication is turned into fine particles and sprayed by
being impacted to the baffle.
