Ultrasonic Nebulizer Medisana IN 515 — portable inhaler, 10 ml filling, 0.2 ml/min nebulisation, AC powered

Medisana IN 515 is a portable ultrasonic nebulizer designed for inhalation therapy at home. The device includes a 10 ml medicine chamber and produces a fine aerosol at a nebulisation rate of approximately 0.2 ml/min. AC-powered operation provides continuous use when connected to mains power, and the unit can be used with a mouthpiece or masks for targeted delivery to the upper and lower respiratory tract.

Advantages

The ultrasonic technology generates a consistently fine aerosol suitable for deposition in the bronchial and nasal passages. A 10 ml filling capacity reduces the need for frequent refilling during a single treatment session. Low nebulisation rate helps deliver medication gently over an extended period while AC power enables reliable operation without battery changes. The compact and portable design supports convenient storage and straightforward handling.

Suitable for

• Inhalation therapy for bronchial conditions and mild lower respiratory symptoms
• Sinus and upper respiratory tract humidification and medication delivery
• Home use with mouthpiece or pediatric/adult masks
• Patients who require a compact, mains-powered nebulizer for regular treatments

When it may not be suitable

This nebulizer operates from AC mains and therefore is not intended for use during travel situations where mains power is unavailable. The relatively low nebulisation rate (0.2 ml/min) means treatments take longer than with high-output devices; users needing very rapid drug delivery may prefer a higher-output model. It is not designed for aerosolising certain suspensions or oils unless specified by the medication manufacturer.

Key specifications

• Technology: ultrasonic nebulization
• Medicine chamber capacity: 10 ml
• Nebulisation rate: 0.2 ml per minute
• Power supply: AC mains operation
• Delivery accessories: compatible with mouthpiece and masks
• Designed use: upper and lower respiratory tract therapy

How to use

Fill the medicine chamber with the prescribed liquid medication up to the indicated level, connect the device to AC mains, and attach the mouthpiece or appropriate mask. Switch the unit on according to the manufacturer’s controls and breathe normally through the mouthpiece or mask until the prescribed dose is administered or the chamber is empty. After each use, disconnect from power, empty remaining medication, and clean the medication chamber and accessories following the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions to maintain hygiene and device performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Need for mains power — device requires AC connection and is not battery-operated
• Intended medication — confirm compatibility of prescribed formulations with ultrasonic nebulizers
• Treatment duration — low nebulisation rate results in longer sessions
• Accessories required — verify included mouthpiece and mask sizes or need to purchase extras

Usage recommendations

Use the device on a stable surface while connected to mains power, follow the prescribed medication dose and frequency, and perform routine cleaning after each session. Consult a healthcare professional to confirm that an ultrasonic nebulizer with a 0.2 ml/min output is appropriate for the specific medication and clinical condition.
