Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the OMRON Comp Air Pro.

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. When the air enters the

nebuliser, it converts the prescribed medication into an aerosol of microscopic

droplets that can easily be inhaled.

The Comp Air Pro is a medical device. Operate this device only as instructed by

your doctor and/or respiratory therapist.

for respiratory disorders.

• For type, dose, and regime of medication follow the instructions of your doctor or

respiratory therapist.

• Do not use only water in the nebuliser, for nebulising purposes.

• Clean and disinfect the nebuliser kit, mouthpiece and optional nosepiece or

masks before using them for the first time after purchase, if the device has not

Never leave the cleaning solution in the medication tank or mouthpiece.

• Do not use or store the device where it may be exposed to noxious fumes or

volatile substances.

• Do not use the device where it may be exposed to flammable gas.

• Do not block the ventilation slots. Never place the device where the ventilation

blanket or towel etc., during use.

• Make sure that the nebuliser kit is clean before use.

• Always dispose of any remaining medication after use, and use fresh medication

each time.

• Do not use in anaesthetic or ventilator breathing circuits.

(Risk of electrical shock)

• Never unplug the power cord with wet hands.

• The compressor and power cord are not waterproof. Do not spill water, or other

liquids, on these parts. If liquid does spill on these parts, immediately unplug the

power cord and wipe off the liquid with gauze or other absorbent material.

General Safety Precautions:

• Inspect the device and parts before using them each time, and check that there

are no problems. In particular, be sure to check the following:

- That the vaporiser head, nozzle or air tube are not damaged.

- That the nozzle is not blocked.

- That the compressor operates normally.

• When using this device, there will be some noise and vibration caused by the

pump in the compressor. There will also be some noise caused by the emission

of compressed air from the nebuliser kit. This is normal and does not indicate a

malfunction.

• Operate the device only as intended. Do not use the device for any other

purpose.

• Do not use the device at temperatures greater than +40°C.

• Make sure that the air tube is securely attached to the compressor (main unit)

and nebuliser kit, and does not come loose. Twist the airtube plug slightly when

inserting it into the connectors to avoid the tube disconnecting during use.

• The plug is provided so that the unit can be completely isolated from the power

source. To completely isolate the unit from the power source unplug the plug from

the power source.

Read and follow the “Correct Disposal of This Product” in the Technical Data

2. Guide to using the Comp Air Pro

Preparing the Nebuliser for Use (Section 3)

Note: Clean and disinfect the nebuliser kit and applicable inhalation

attachments before using the device for the first time, or if it has not

been used for more than one week.

Taking Medication (Section 4)

Notes:

• Do not tilt the nebuliser kit so that it is at an

angle of greater than 45

°.

• Do not crease or fold the air tube.

Cleaning Parts After Use (Section 5)

Note: Failure to clean the nebulising parts

after use may lead to infection.

How the nebuliser kit works

The compressed air from the

compressor is forced through the

nozzle, as it does so, it is mixed with

the medication in the vaporiser head

and forced upwards. The medication

is then turned into a fine aerosol and

directed upwards by the baffle,

where it is broken down into many

smaller aerosol particles.
