Hi Cedric,

Will do it when I get home - kit consists of:

Machined Plug for opening between head and scrubber
Extra Dust Cap for top of head
Tubing which fits through dust cap and into sensor area
Flow reducer & connection on end of tubing to connect into LP O2
Surgical tubing to connect to one way valve out of head to allow indpendant O2 analysier to be fitted.

Not sure about prices but not expensive.

Stuart

Sounds good.

Cheers

ISO 9000 is a quality assurance system that is regularly audited internally and by a third party. No markets require this for the equipment to be used. DOT and CE certification is quite different.

Bo, I think you misunderstood what I ment to say.
Unlike CE or DOT ISO is not required by law, and I didn't refer to geographical markets requiring it.
So maybe the CE example was poorly chosen, although if the Meg passes the testing without any modification it didn't get any better just because it's certified. Just like the ISO cert doesn't make for better quality.

CE, by the way, does require proof of QAQC, and ISO certification is accepted for that.

In regards to the new markets I was referring to users. In order to comply with insurance carriers and limit liability some entities in the scientific (and probably commercial) field require ISO, so if you would like to cater to those markets you'll need to get it.
