This equipment was discontinued from service and was in the care of a private collector until recently. It is intended for sale as a historic collectible and piece of military history.

Everything is in like-new condition with minor scratches and some weathering on the cloth and rubber pieces. Includes two boxes on casters, one with lid.

Included is plenty of hardware and multiple pieces of machinery. For a serious collector of military medical history, this is gold.

The combined weight of the device and container is 115 lbs. It is self contained in a case that measures 13" x 20" x 18" when closed, and 13" x 20" x 44 when fully erected. The Army green case is separated into two sections, the upper and lower case. The upper case contains hoses and other parts essential to the functions of the apparatus that promote breathing; it can also be deployed as a stool for the anesthetist, and houses tools used to maintain the device. The lower case can be fitted with glides or casters to make it easier to move. It is also where the stand, control head, absorber, vaporizer, cylinder adapters, and other necessary items are stored.

The 885A does not meet all American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or common-law stan­dards, and has become obsolete because of significant advances in anesthesia technology.
