Amvex | 15 LPM Thorpe Oxygen Flowmeter | Chemetron Adapter | FM-T-15UO-CH

The Amvex FM-T-15UO-CH is a professional-grade, Thorpe-style respiratory gas flowmeter engineered for precise titration and delivery of medical oxygen. Outfitted with an integrated Chemetron quick-connect wall adapter, this heavy-duty brass component provides direct coupling into standard clinical gas outlets. The system is fully back-pressure compensated, utilizing a calibrated internal mechanism that guarantees display accuracy from 0 to 15 Liters Per Minute (LPM) even when encountering downstream resistance from humidifiers, nebulizers, or extended patient tubing loops.

Key Engineering & Operational Features

• Back-Pressure Compensation Track: Calibrated to ensure that the internal indicator ball reflects true flow rates regardless of variations in downstream mechanical resistance or back-pressure.

• Stripping-Resistant D-Shaped Control Knob: Features an ergonomic, front-mounted D-shaped adjustment valve that prevents axis stripping, allowing for micro-increment flow adjustments under demanding clinical workflows.

• Color-Coded Visual Indicators: Outfitted with an industry-standard green color scheme on the outer flow tube array to provide high-visibility gas verification and prevent dangerous cross-connection errors.

• Integrated Sintered Inlet Filter: Includes a micro-porous inlet screening element that traps particulate debris and line contaminants, safeguarding the internal needle valve tolerances from mechanical jamming.
