One ventilator for all your small animal practice needs, from small rodents to large dogs.

No accessories included

The Vetronic Merlin veterinary ventilator has been designed with just that in mind. Using the latest technology, Merlin is able to precisely control ventilation parameters to ensure your patient is as safe as can be during mechanical ventilation. Merlin doesn’t require a compressed gas supply to operate, so is quiet and smooth. And, because Merlin is controlled by a state-of-the-art microcontroller, you can confidently set the independent ventilation parameters that you want, without compromise.

Merlin is a microprocessor-controlled ventilator, designed by vets for vets. We have done away with the conventional pressurised gas driving mechanism. This new ventilator uses a precisely-controlled piston that can accurately delivery volumes in the range 1ml to 800ml.

Merlin can be pressure cycled, volume cycled or time cycled and the inspiratory and expiratory times are fully and independently variable, without the need to re-adjust after changes in flow rates or volumes. A pressure control allows you to set the maximum allowable pressure during volume cycling, or the target pressure during pressure cycling.

A further added feature is the inspiratory assist control that will tune the ventilator to your patient during recovery and so assist weaning from the ventilator. On the front of the unit is a large, easily-readable display that shows all of your selected parameters. The parameters are continuously updated, reflecting every adjustment made.

In addition, we believe Merlin is truly innovative in being the first veterinary ventilator to calculate and display the compliance of the patient being ventilated.
