Each of the Salter Labs 8660 Series Nebulizers consists of a Nebulizer Top which is screwed onto a Nebulizer Cup. The bottom of the cup has a fitting to accept a source of nebulizing gas. Liquids to be nebulized are placed in the nebulizer cup. The nebulizer housing is then applied, and the supply line for the nebulizing gas source is then connected to the bottom of the nebulizer cup. After the pressurized nebulizing gas is applied to the nebulizer, the solution in the cup is nebulized and pushed from the unit in aerosol form that can be inhaled by the patient.
