FRIENDLINESS COMBINDED
FRIENDLINESS COMBINDED

The safety of the Saturn Evo was given high priority during its
development. Thus manual ventilation is independent of the electronic/
pneumatic system. Any failure in the driving gas, main voltage,
electronics, software, etc. always results in the Saturn Evo reverting to
spontaneous / manual mode. Ventilation is always possible because
the system contains no controlled valves, making the ventilation circuit
extremely reliable. An alarm always sounds when such a switch occurs.
In addition to this pneumatic/mechanical safety, the electronics are
also designed in such a way that a high level of reliability and safety
is obtained.
The Saturn Evo is also equipped with the unique “anti-volutrauma”
software and “anti-barotrauma” software, especially developed by
Medec. With these features, the Saturn Evo reaches a new level of
patient safety.

Why waste gas when you could have a Saturn Evo ?
The Saturn Evo automatically compensates for the amount of fresh gas flow, and can
work as a half closed system or a fully closed system, all depending on the fresh
gas setting set by the user. The Saturn Evo is therefore suitable for high flow down
to low flow and even minimum flow.
The flowsensor is incorporated in the patient system, and is based on an adaptation,
developed by Medec, on the Fleisch principle. The flow curve is integrated in time,
which gives the volume. Both inspiration and expiration are measured. The fresh
gas flow, which is also detected by the flow sensor, is of course fully compensated.
Due to the unique construction, we give extended warranty of five years on the flow
sensor.
By placing the absorber canister on the inspiratory line, we have eliminated the
unnecessary filtering of gases that will be drained by the gas evacuation system.
Consequently, the soda-lime can be used for a much longer period.
The Saturn EVO is also designed to be maintained easily without the need of
expensive maintenance as there are no moving parts in our unit. All parts of the
Saturn EVO are tested and inspected to achieve the highest standards to eliminate
the risk of failure. This in combination with the built-in software calibration and
maintenance menu, makes the Saturn Evo one of the most economical and reliable
units available on the market today.

INTELLIGENT VENTILATION
VENTILATION

The Saturn Evo anesthetic ventilator is reliable and easy to operate, and can be
used in all situations where vapour anesthesia is used and ventilation is required.
From neonatal to adult ventilation, without having to change any bag or bellow.
The Saturn evo can be used both as a stand-alone machine and as a part of a
complete system.
The control panel has been kept as simple as possible, with directly recognizable
functions.
The large color screen, in combination with touch screen technology makes it easy
to operate in every situation.
The quick and accurate feedback makes Saturn Evo a unique ventilator with
excellent ventilation characteristics. As soon as a change occurs (eg. Machine
setting, patient compliance, adjustment of the fresh gas flow) the Saturn Evo detects
this and calculates a revised tank pressure. Because the tank, via the bag-in-
bottle, maintains the ventilation volume or pressure, the Saturn Evo adapts to the
new (patient) parameters following this change. The Saturn Evo is thus an actively
controlling and correcting ventilator which provides optimum ventilation for the
patient at every machine setting.
