How the nebuliser kit works
The compressed air from the compressor is forced through the nozzle, as it does so, it is mixed with the medication in the vaporiser head and forced upwards. The medication is then turned into a fine aerosol and directed upwards by the baffle, where it is broken down into many smaller aerosol particles.
