Innovative CO2 indicators
Discover Mincor AB-s new colorimetric CO2 indicators, designed to provide clear, immediate visualization of carbon dioxide levels.
The Capnoedge indicator can be used for any patient older than 6 months (more than 8 kg). Normally two indicators are needed to cover this range. The Capnoedge offers cutting edge performance at a significantly reduced price. See detailed specifications below.
The 2CC sticker can be easily attached to any host product with transparent walls to indicate the CO2 level. It has the same performance as the Capnoedge device but can be taylored to the specific requirements of the host product such as masks, filters, tubings etc. More 2CC details are given below.
