The Pop-Off Valve That Could Save a Life – Now on Promo
Safety First: Upgrade to the Smart Pop-Off Valve This Quarter
Veterinary anesthesia safety starts with the right equipment – especially when staffing changes are constant and procedures are frequent. The Safety Pop-Off Valve from Vetamac is designed to prevent critical mistakes without compromising compatibility or performance.
Why Choose the Safety Pop-Off Valve?
- Universal Compatibility: Works with all waste gas evacuation systems on the market.
- Fits all anesthesia machines (some units may require an adapter).
- Built-in Pressure Release Mechanism to allow momentary closure without the risks of a locked valve.
- Helps prevent accidental patient deaths due to forgotten closed valves – ideal for training environments or new staff.
Performance You Can Trust:
- Opening Pressure:
- 1LPM flow = 1.6–1.7 cm/H₂O
- 4LPM flow = 2.0–2.1 cm/H₂O
- Trumpet valve depressed = 20–22 cm/H₂O
- Reliable Seal: Unlike other options, our guarentee is this one won’t leak.
Perfect for:
-
Clinics with frequent staff turnover
-
Training new veterinary technicians
-
Adding a redundant layer of safety to every anesthetic procedure

How to install the Safety Pop-Off valve?
Installation:
- Remove old POV, verify the threads in the anesthesia machine are free from debris.
- Verify threads on old POV match threads on new safety POV (There will be some anesthesia machines needing an additional adapter; please work with your Vetamac Service Technician on the appropriate adapter).
- Install new Vetamac Safety POV in its place.
Functionality:
-
Eliminate the potential for human error forgetting the adjustable knob closed and POV building up unsafe pressure to patient.
-
Close the adjustable knob and press occlusion valve to completely occlude Safety valve.
-
Can pressure test anesthesia machine, circuit and bag at higher pressures to eliminate potential WAG exposure.
-
Press the occlusion valve only and pressure releases in the valve at 20 cmH2O.
-
Functions appropriate for use with various active WAG scavenger interfaces and systems.
Pressure Test Guidelines
-
Occlude the inspiratory, expiratory and rebreathing bag port.
-
Close the adjustable knob of the pop-off valve, hold down the occlusion valve or put the safety cap on.
-
Using the flowmeter (DO NOT USE THE FLUSH VALVE), increase the pressure on the manometer to 30 cm/H2O. Turn the oxygen off.
-
Observe the manometer for 30 seconds.
-
If the manometer remains at 30 cm/H2O, the equipment is safe to use. If the manometer increases in pressure, there is a significant oxygen leak in the flowmeter or flush valve and needs to be corrected before using the machine.
-
If the manometer pressure begins to drop, set the oxygen flow at 200cc/minute and observe the manometer. The pressure on the manometer should remain constant or rise. If the manometer continues to drop there is a leak in the equipment which needs to be isolated and corrected before using the machine.
-
If a leak is detected, turn off oxygen cylinder or disconnect equipment. Contact your Vetamac service technician for assistance.
