Abstract
A gas ratio controlling device for anesthetic appliances, wherein the throughput ratio of oxygen to anesthetic gas (oxygen:anesthetic gas) is controlled by means of a control circuit with a control valve operating depending on the concentration parameters required. The oxygen ratio in the supply gas must not fall below a preset value. The control is improved in order to secure that the oxygen content does not fall below the required minimum during small gas mixture flow rates and the invention provides a means of adjustment for small anesthetic gas values. According to the invention this is achieved by a control valve situated in the anesthetic gas supply line which can be bridged by a by-pass line having a throttle.
