Stepwise Inspiratory Volume MonitoringThe spirometers three-chamber mechanism provides progressive inhalation training, helping users gradually increase lung capacity. Each chamber is marked with distinct volume capacities (600 ml, 900 ml, and 1200 ml), with color-coded balls that visibly track breathing effort to gauge improvement and maintain consistency during therapy.
Safe and Reusable for All AgesMade from non-toxic, medical grade plastic, this device ensures safe usage for both adults and children. Its detachable mouthpiece allows easy cleaning and sterilization, making it suitable for repeated use in clinical or home settings. Clear volume markers support accurate tracking of respiratory exercises.

Its mouthpiece is contoured for comfort and easy attachment, and the flexible corrugated tube adapts to individual use positions. Compact dimensions (14 x 10 x 7 cm) make it lightweight and portable for convenient storage and usage anywhere.
FAQs of contac spirometer:
Q: How do I use the Contac Spirometer for lung exercises?
A: Begin by securely attaching the detachable mouthpiece and flexible tube to the device.

Hold your breath for a few seconds before exhaling. Repeat as directed by your healthcare provider.
Q: What are the benefits of three color-coded float balls in the spirometer?
A: The three color-coded balls correspond to distinct chambers reflecting different inspiratory volumes (600 ml, 900 ml, and 1200 ml). This design visually indicates inhalation strength and progress, allowing users to gradually enhance their lung capacity and monitor their respiratory improvement over time.
Q: When should I use the spirometer during my recovery or therapy?
A: The spirometer is ideal for post-surgery rehabilitation, during physiotherapy sessions, or as part of regular respiratory therapy. Use it as advised by your physician or therapist, typically multiple times per day for optimal lung expansion and improved breathing capability.

A: Due to its portable and compact design, the spirometer is suitable for use in hospitals, clinics, therapy centers, and at home. Its ease of assembly and manual operation make it convenient for daily exercises without the need for electricity or special setup.
Q: What is the process for cleaning and reusing the spirometer?
A: Detach the mouthpiece and tube from the main unit. Wash all components thoroughly with warm water and mild disinfectant, then let them air-dry completely before reassembly. Ensure proper sanitization before each use to prevent contamination and maintain device effectiveness.
Q: Is the spirometer safe for both children and adults?
A: Yes, the spirometer is crafted from non-toxic, medical grade plastic and designed for use by both adults and children. Its ergonomic mouthpiece and graduated indicators make it accessible and easy to use for a wide range of age groups under appropriate guidance.
