 Lab Nebulizer System Instruction Manual  

 

Warnings 

Read and study all instructions before using the Aeroneb

® 

Lab. Only trained personnel should operate 

the device. 

For pre-clinical use only.  It is not intended for use with humans. 

Do not use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture combined with air or with oxygen or 
nitrous oxide. 

To avoid the risk of fire, do not use in the presence of flammable substances.  

Assemble and perform a functional test according to the instructions in this manual before use. 

If this equipment is not used in a manner specified in this manual, the protection provided by the 
equipment may be impaired. 

The ability to effectively aerosolize a novel formulation or chemical entity while maintaining the 
integrity of this entity can only be determined through direct testing, and is the responsibility of the 
device user. 

 

Cautions 

To avoid mechanical or electrical damage, do not drop the nebulizer unit or the control module.  

Disconnect nebulizer unit from control module before cleaning.  

Do not immerse in water or autoclave the control module, cables or AC/DC adapter.  

Use only with components specified by Aerogen. 

Inspect all parts before use, and do not use if any parts are missing, cracked or damaged. In case of 
missing parts, malfunction or damage, contact your Aerogen representative.  

Do not use or store outside of specified environmental conditions. 

 

Electromagnetic Susceptibility  

This device meets the requirements for Electromagnetic Compatibility as defined by European 
Directive 89/336/EEC relating to Electromagnetic Compatibility. This includes immunity to radio 
frequency electric fields and electrostatic discharge, in addition to the other applicable requirements of 
the standard. Compliance with EMC standards does not mean a device has total immunity; certain 
devices (cellular phones, pagers, etc.) can interrupt operation if they are used near the equipment.
