About the principle of
nebulisation in the NE-U17
The NE-U17 transmits the energy of ultrasonic
vibration from the vibrator located at the bottom
of the water tank into water.
The ultrasonic vibration is transmitted to the
medication in the medication cup through the
water in the water tank.
The ultrasonic vibration emits medication from
the medication cup (like a fountain) and this is
dispersed as aerosol.
Air from the fan carries this nebulised medication
out of the medication cup.
– Nebulisation: The state in which the medication
is converted into aerosol.
