The device includes two fixed ratio blenders: a \"low\" blend that provides 37% oxygen and a \"high\" blend that provides 60% oxygen.

The blend is stable within ± 5% of the blenders' nominal blend ratio when used with a 100% oxygen source, irrespective of the flow and pressure from the oxygen source or the flow and pressure of the blended gas delivered to the neonate.
