SLE6000 Specifications

(V2.0.50 software)

The SLE6000 is a high-specification, compact infant ventilator that offers a

range of conventional modes with additional options for non-invasive ventilation
(NIV), high frequency oscillation ventilation (HFOV) and high flow oxygen therapy.
SpO2 and etCO2 monitoring options are supported with the addition of plug-in
modules. OxyGenie (Auto O2) can also be integrated.
