The Adjustable Sophy® Mini valve is a high-precision device of unparalleled simplicity.
The principle of the Sophy® valve resides in the variation in pressure exerted on a ball by a semi-circular spring at various points along its circumference. The spring is attached to a magnetic rotor which position can be non-invasively changed using an adjustment magnet. A series of indentations allows a variety of positions to be selected, each position representing a different pressure setting.
Direct pressure reading is obtained using the adjustment kit compass: the compass needle is aligned with the position of the magnetic rotor.
In addition to the standard model (30-200 mmH 2O), Sophy® Mini SM8 also offers a unique special pressure range: one low pressure valve and two high pressure valves. Thus a choice is provided, depending on the experience of the practitioner, to meet very special needs
The Sophy® Mini SM8-140 and SM8 can be associated with SiphonX®, an anti-siphon device, which adds 200 mmH 2O in vertical position.
