摘要

There is disclosed a fluid adapter (200) for a breathable gas delivery device, such as a facemask, for delivering breathable gas to a user. The fluid adapter comprises an adapter body (202) defining an adapter chamber (214); a pressurised gas inlet port (208) in fluid communication with the adapter chamber and arranged to be fluidically coupled to a source of pressurised breathable gas and an ambient air inlet port (204) arranged to provide fluid communication between the adapter chamber and ambient air outside of the fluid adapter. The adapter also comprises an adapter outlet port (210) in fluid communication with the adapter chamber and arranged to be fluidically coupled to a delivery device gas inlet port of the breathable gas delivery device; and an adapter connector (218) arranged to connect the fluid adapter to the breathable gas delivery device such that the adapter outlet port is fluidically coupled to the delivery device gas inlet port.
