Abstract
An anesthetic metering device is provided with a temperature-stabilized anesthetic vapor source, from which anesthetic vapor 14 is metered into a carrier gas stream via a delivery line 8 with a metering valve 11 that can be controlled by a control unit 6. The arrangement is provided so that uncontrolled evaporation of anesthetic is prevented. To accomplish this task, the anesthetic vapor source is designed as a vaporizer chamber 2 filled with liquid anesthetic 3, and a gas delivery element 9 generating the metering pressure P.sub.I is present in front of the metering valve 11.
