Frequently Asked Questions — Neonatal Bubble CPAP System BC161-10 (Fisher & Paykel)
What is the BC161-10?
It is Fisher & Paykel Healthcare's infant Bubble CPAP system: the disposable set that carries heated, humidified gas to the nasal interface and routes exhaled gas to the water generator, where the pressure is created. BC161-10 is the manufacturer's reference.
What is in each set?
The heated inspiratory circuit, the MR290 auto-fill humidification chamber, the pressure manifold and the Bubble CPAP generator with its overflow container and fill funnel.
Does it include nasal prongs or a mask?
No. The system connects to a Fisher & Paykel nasal interface, chosen by the baby's size and bought separately. If you need interfaces on the same order, tell us the type and sizes.
Which humidifier does it work with?
The chamber is the MR290 auto-fill and the inspiratory circuit is heated, so it needs a Fisher & Paykel humidifier compatible with both. Send us the model of the unit's humidifier and we confirm before the order.
Is it a complete CPAP machine?
No. It is the consumable of a Bubble CPAP system. The gas source, the air/oxygen blender with flow meter, the humidifier and the nasal interface are separate.
What pressure does it deliver?
The generator adjusts from 3 to 10 cmH₂O. The pressure comes from how deep the expiratory tube sits under water; the flow is set on the hospital's flow meter per the manufacturer's instructions for use.
What happens if the circuit is blocked?
The pressure manifold limits the pressure reaching the patient in the event of an occlusion. It also has a port for a pressure monitor or an air/oxygen analyser.
Does CPAP have to stop to empty excess water?
No. The generator has a detachable overflow container: it is removed and emptied while CPAP keeps running.
Is it single use?
Yes. The label carries the do-not-reuse symbol. Sterility and storage conditions are as stated on the manufacturer's label and instructions for use.
Is it CE marked?
Yes. The product carries CE marking with notified body number 0123 on the label. We send the manufacturer's documentation and the lot data your registration asks for.
Is it an original product? Who supplies it?
It is an original Fisher & Paykel product in its original packaging, supplied by EDAOCHI as a distributor through an authorised distribution channel. It is not relabelled or sold under another brand.
What is the price and minimum order?
US$129 per set as a reference price. The minimum order is 10 sets, which is the manufacturer's box. Tell us the quantity and destination country to close a price with freight.
What do you need to quote?
Number of sets, destination country, the model of humidifier the unit uses, whether you need nasal interfaces and in which sizes, and the documents your registration or tender requires.

Full Description — Neonatal Bubble CPAP System BC161-10 (Fisher & Paykel)
The BC161-10 is Fisher & Paykel Healthcare's infant Bubble CPAP system: the disposable set in a bubble CPAP setup. It carries heated, humidified gas to the baby's nasal interface and routes exhaled gas to a water generator, where the pressure is set. We supply it as a distributor, in original packaging, at US$129 per set with a minimum order of 10 sets (the manufacturer's box).
What is in the set
- Heated inspiratory circuit: a spiral heater wire runs along the limb to spread the heat and reduce condensate. - MR290 humidification chamber: auto-fill, closed system. - Pressure manifold: limits the pressure delivered if there is an occlusion, and has a port for a pressure monitor or an air/oxygen analyser. - Bubble CPAP generator: adjustable from 3 to 10 cmH₂O, with a detachable overflow container that can be emptied without stopping CPAP, a separate fill funnel and a mounting bracket on the back.
Where it sits in the system
The gas path: air and oxygen source → blender with flow meter → heated humidifier with the MR290 chamber → inspiratory circuit → patient nasal interface → expiratory limb → Bubble CPAP generator. The flow meter sets the flow; the depth of the tube under water sets the pressure in cmH₂O.
What the hospital provides
The set does not include the nasal interface (Fisher & Paykel prongs or mask, chosen by size), the bonnet, the air/oxygen blender, the flow meter, the humidifier or the gas source. The circuit is heated and the chamber is the MR290, so the humidifier has to be a Fisher & Paykel model compatible with both. Send us the unit's humidifier model and we confirm before the order.
Bubble CPAP, high flow and ventilation
Three forms of support share the same NICU and each has its own consumable. The high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) system delivers a high flow of heated gas with no water-set pressure. Bubble CPAP sets the pressure with the water column. Invasive support uses a mechanical ventilation circuit. A distributor supplying neonatology usually carries all three, plus the suction catheter and the mucus trap for the newborn's airway.
Documentation
The label carries CE marking with notified body 0123. We send the manufacturer's documentation and lot data for registration in your country.
