K903200 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MINICAP III CO2 DETECTOR. Classified as Analyzer, Gas, Carbon-dioxide, Gaseous-phase (product code CCK), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Minesafety Appliances Co. (Pittsburgh, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 21, 1990 after a review of 60 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.1400 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
