Medical components supplier expands stopcock range

MedNet, a supplier and manufacturer of medical and pharmaceutical components, has expanded its portfolio with the addition of a multiway stopcock for infusion therapy, anaesthesia and patient monitoring. 

The handle of the new E-Click snaps in after 45° turn from complete opened standard position confirming to the user that the system is 100% closed and fluids cannot leak or mix. With every next 45° turn a ‘click’ indicates that the handle is correctly aligned with the selected position and the respective ports are securely opened or closed. Additionally, the innovative handle design enables an improved, comfortable grip. With a pressure resistance of 3 bar (43.5 PSI), the stopcock is the most pressure-resistant of its type.  

The E-Click body is made from lipid-resistant polycarbonate. The enhanced material enables the use with a wide range of medications and up to 24 hours duration with the patient. The stopcock as well as the handle is latex-, PVC- and DEHP-free.  

The stopcock manufactured by Elcam Medical is available with handle colours in blue, red and white. Stopcock body and handle are latex, PVC and DEHP free. The ports correspond to the new ISO 80369-7 standard.
