Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester
Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester | ISO 5367
Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester – Model ToronMed™ BTRFT03 is designed according to ISO 5367:2023 and other applicable international standards. This advanced instrument is used to evaluate the resistance-to-flow performance of breathing tubes intended for use with anesthetic apparatus and ventilators.
Engineered for medical device manufacturers, laboratories, and quality control facilities, the Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester – Model ToronMed™ BTRFT03 ensures that breathing tubes provide consistent airflow under both straight and bent conditions, helping to meet the highest safety and performance requirements in respiratory care.
The Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester – Model ToronMed™ BTRFT03 is ideal for:
- Manufacturers of anesthetic and respiratory breathing tubes conducting R&D, production QC, and compliance testing.
- Independent laboratories performing third-party verification of breathing tube performance.
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities ensuring patient safety and equipment reliability.
- Compliance with ISO 5367 and other international standards for breathing system components.
Torontech is a trusted global provider of advanced medical device testing solutions.

- 7-inch color touch screen for easy operation and monitoring.
- High-precision pressure sensors with stable, adjustable control.
- 15 mm and 22 mm double cone connectors to accommodate standard breathing tube interfaces.
- Surge Flask designed in strict accordance with ISO test requirements.
- Real-time data output with onboard micro printer and USB interface.
- Large data storage capacity (over 100,000 test records).
- Safety protection features including pressure over-range shutdown, overload protection, and power-down memory.
The Breathing Tube Resistance to Flow Tester – Model ToronMed™ BTRFT03 supports two primary test methods:
- Resistance to Flow – Measures the pressure change before and after the breathing tube is inserted at a controlled flow rate (ΔP = P2–P1).
- Flow Resistance with Bending – Simulates real-world use by bending the breathing tube around a test fixture with applied weight, then measuring the increase in resistance at rated flow.
In addition, the system can be extended to evaluate five critical performance parameters: airflow resistance, flatness resistance, leakage test, pressure resistance, and patency.
