Abstract: A window for use in an adapter for an IR gas analyser for analysing breathing gases, where the gases flow through a through-penetrating passageway in the adapter, which includes windows disposed on opposite sides of the passageway so as to enable an IR beam to be sent through the windows and through the passageway containing said breathing gases. Each window is a one-piece structure comprised of plastic material and has a round basic shape that includes a surrounding edge and a central part which is sunken in relation to the surrounding edge and which forms the window through which the IR beams or rays shall be able to pass. A method of producing such a window, by injection moulding a thermoplastic material in a mould where injection of the plastic material is also disclosed.

Abstract: A measuring head for the analysis of respiratory gases to and from a patient connected to a respirator, includes an aperture (7) which is intended to be placed over an adapter (2) through which respiratory gases flow. The measuring head (1) has a light transmitter (9) which includes an IR-emitter (12) on one side of the aperture (7) and a light receiver (10) which includes an IR-detector on the other side of the aperture (7). The measuring head (1) also includes a signal processing unit (20) necessary for the gas analysis.
