Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (a) 275-345

Explanation: The gas that is refined in the air treatment PLANT and then sent to the patients VIA the wall fittings or to the ventilator, it has to maintain a higher pressure so that the gas can travel long distances with a good VELOCITY. If the pressure is low, the velocity of the gases will be less and then the gases which have regulated temperature and moisture may loose their heat and WATER content.
