The Datex-Ohmeda Excel 210 MRI Anesthesia Machine is a precision-engineered system specifically designed for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environments. Constructed entirely from non-ferrous materials, the Excel 210 MRI eliminates magnetic interference while ensuring reliable and consistent anesthesia delivery. Tested for safety near 1.5 Tesla MRI scanners (magnetic fringe field < 0.23 T), this unit provides dependable performance in high-field imaging suites. The Excel 210 MRI supports oxygen, nitrous oxide, and medical air, accommodating both pipeline and cylinder gas supplies. Advanced safety mechanisms—including the Link-25 Proportion Limiting System, low oxygen supply alarms, and vaporizer interlocks—safeguard patients and operators under all conditions. Its compact and ergonomic design features large locking casters, full-length dovetail accessory rails, and a recessed oxygen flush for ease of operation in confined clinical spaces. Equipped with the Datex-Ohmeda 5125 O₂ Monitor, the system delivers precise oxygen concentration measurement with real-time digital feedback and integrated audible/visual alarms. Together, these components make the Excel 210 MRI an exceptional choice for hospitals and imaging centers requiring MRI-compatible anesthesia delivery with uncompromising accuracy and safety.
