We keep about 30 units in domestic warehose, so lead time is typically 2-3 weeks for orders under 10, and shipping via standard freight works fine — no cold chain needed, just sturdy double-walled boxes with foam inserts.
The problem it solves is moving a critically ill patient without losing ventilator support during transport, and the VG70 handles that with high-capacty built-in battery that runs roughly 4 hours on a full charge, plus autoclavable metal heated exhalation valve for infection control in ICU corridors or emergency bays.
It's basically a full ICU ventilator in a 966mm tall package — BIVENT, PRVC, and standdard modes are all there, and the built-in non-consumable flow sensor means you're not buying disposables every month. 3 real-time waveforms and 3 monitoring loops show compliance, resistnce, PEEPi, and time constant.
We usually have stock, but confirm lead time if you need more than 20 units or so. The software is upgradeable via USB, so you can push firmware updates yourself. One detail not everyone asks about: the exhalation valve is metal, not plastic — it autoclaves at 134°C without warping.
Not ideal for long-term home ventilation — it's designed for transport and emergency use, not 24/7 bedside duty, though it can do that in a pinch.
The built-in high-capacity battery typically lasts around 4-6 hours depending on settings and patient load, but exact runtime can vary. It's designed for stable transport use without needing to stay plugged in.
Yes, the metal heated exhalation valve is autoclavable, which helps prevent infection. We recommend sterilizing it between patients or per your hospital's protocol for reusable components.
Absolutely, you can upgrade the software via USB — just download the latest version from our portal and plug in the drive. No special tools or service call required.
It comes with CE and ISO13485 certifications, so it meets EU medical device standards and quality management requirements. We can provide the cert docs with your order.
Yes, the built-in flow sensor is non-consumable, so you won't need to replace it regularly. That cuts down on long-term consumable costs and reduces downtime.
