The original Ball-In-Cone and Spring mechanism is the basis of all our Natus DP Valve Systems. Several color-coded pressure ranges are offered in standard and pediatric versions. A variety of system configurations are available, depending on physician preference. Each valve system includes all the necessary components required for implantation. A serial number is engraved on the body of the valve. Over 30 years of clinical experience have made the Natus DP valve a standard among differential pressure (DP) valves.
Key Features:
- Accurate pressure control
- Long-term reliability
- Superior protein handling capacity, and resistance to obstruction.
