MR Conditional What does this mean?

MR Safe – an item that poses no known hazards in all MRI environments. Using the terminology, “MR Safe” items are non-conducting, non-metallic, and non-magnetic items such as a plastic Petri dish. An item may be determined to be MR Safe by providing a scientifically based rationale rather than test data.

MR Conditional – an item that has been demonstrated to pose no known hazards in a specified MR environment with specified conditions of use. “Field” conditions that define the MR environment include static magnetic field strength, spatial gradient magnetic field, dB/dt (time rate of change of the magnetic field), radio frequency (RF) fields, and specific absorption rate (SAR). Additional conditions, including specific configurations of the item (e.g., the routing of leads used for a neurostimulation system), may be required.

MR Unsafe – An item that is known to pose hazards in all MRI environments. MR Unsafe items include magnetic items such as a pair of ferromagnetic scissors.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the MRI safety status of the Replacement Gauge for DU-O-VAC Low Flow systems?

The Replacement Gauge for DU-O-VAC Low Flow models is MR Conditional, tested and approved for use in MRI environments up to 3 Tesla. It’s built from non-magnetic materials, allowing safe installation and operation in MRI Zones III and IV. The gauge provides a precise 0–200 mmHg pressure range, ideal for low-flow suction control in MRI applications. Because it operates mechanically and contains no ferromagnetic parts, it delivers consistent readings without affecting image quality or safety near the magnet.

2. How does this low-flow replacement gauge improve performance in MRI suction systems?

This gauge is designed for accurate, stable pressure readings in MRI suction systems that demand fine control—especially during neonatal, pediatric, or delicate airway procedures. Its 0–200 mmHg range gives clinicians the precision needed for sensitive applications, while its robust, medical-grade construction ensures long-term reliability. It installs easily into existing DU-O-VAC Low Flow setups, helping maintain consistent suction performance and reducing downtime for recalibration or replacement.

3. Why is it important to use an MRI Conditional gauge instead of a standard one in the MRI suite?

Standard gauges can contain ferromagnetic materials that pose safety risks or distort MRI images. The MRI Conditional DU-O-VAC replacement gauge is specifically engineered for non-magnetic environments, ensuring accurate pressure measurement without interference. It also complies with current MRI safety standards, helping facilities maintain regulatory compliance and patient safety. Using the correct gauge not only protects your staff and equipment but also keeps your suction system functioning reliably within MRI zones.

4. How durable is this gauge for daily MRI use, and does it hold up to routine cleaning?

It’s built to handle constant use in busy MRI settings and withstands regular cleaning with hospital-approved disinfectants. The sealed housing protects the internal mechanics from moisture and debris, helping the DU-O-VAC maintain consistent suction readings across the full 0–200 mmHg range.
