Benedict Roth Recording Spirometer
Product Code : JA-BRRS-2393
The Benedict Roth Recording Spirometer (SKU JA-BRRS-2393) is a closed-circuit, 6 litre spirometer with its own electric recording kymograph, used in physiology practicals to record breathing and to estimate oxygen consumption in basal metabolic rate (BMR) exercises. A soda-lime container absorbs exhaled carbon dioxide, so the fall of the trace over time reflects the oxygen used. JaincoLab manufactures this Benedict Roth spirometer for medical and life-science teaching laboratories.
Specifications
The instrument combines a 6 litre spirometer with a 4-speed electric recording kymograph and gravity writing ink pen, a soda-lime container with screw connections in the central chamber, drain cocks on all tubes and containers, and a sampling cock.

Applications of the Benedict Roth recording spirometer
It gives students a written record of breathing from which tidal volume, rate and oxygen uptake can be worked out.
- Basal metabolic rate (BMR) estimation exercises in human physiology practicals
- Recording tidal volume, vital capacity and respiratory rate on the kymograph
- Physiology laboratories in medical, physiotherapy and nursing colleges
- Demonstrating oxygen consumption at rest in B.Sc and M.Sc physiology teaching

Frequently asked questions
What does the kymograph record?
The 4-speed electric kymograph writes the spirometer movements with a gravity writing ink pen, giving a trace of each breath.
What is the soda-lime container for?
It holds soda lime that absorbs exhaled carbon dioxide in the closed circuit; it has screw connections in the central chamber.
How is the subject connected?
Through the sampling cock, which connects the subject either to the spirometer or to the atmosphere.
