Frequently asked questions
Does Carbolime have a permanent color exhaustion indicator?
Yes, the Carbolime absorbent utilizes a clear, built-in **visual exhaustion indicator** to signal when its carbon dioxide absorption capacity is fully spent. This feature is based on an ethyl violet dye and the color change is permanent, preventing confusion during replacement.The indicator transitions as follows:**Active/Fresh State:** White**Exhausted State (CO2 absorption complete):** Pale Violet
Is this premium absorbent potassium hydroxide-free?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Carbolime absorbent is formulated specifically **without potassium hydroxide (KOH)**. It is a specialized, granular soda lime compound designed for use in closed or semi-closed breathing circuits.
Its formulation includes calcium hydroxide, water, and sodium hydroxide, and is engineered for high performance:
* **Visual Indicator:** Features an ethyl violet dye that permanently changes color from **white to pale violet** once the material is exhausted, providing a clear visual cue for replacement.
* **Effective Absorption:** Efficiently absorbs carbon dioxide and excessive heat. The material maintains a moisture content between 12% and 19% for optimal absorption.
* **Low Dust:** The pellet-shaped formulation minimizes dust levels, which helps optimize the surface area and reduce friction within the breathing circuit.

What is the optimal moisture content range?
The Carbolime Carbon Dioxide Absorbent is formulated to maintain a precise moisture level essential for optimal absorption efficiency and reliable performance in breathing circuits.
* The controlled moisture content is strictly maintained **between 12% and 19%**.
* This specific range, combined with the product's adequate porosity, ensures the soda lime compound effectively absorbs carbon dioxide (CO2).
* The optimized formulation also helps absorb excessive heat generated during the scrubbing process, aided by a low-dust composition and graded particle size.
