PULMONEX II DOUBLE TRAP XENON SYSTEM

Note: If you require longer tubing for your patient, you can
attach a tube to the bacterial filters and then connect the
mouthpiece or mask to this hose.
Note: Keep the breathing tubes as short as possible. (See
"Troubleshooting" section on Strong Breathing Resistance.) For
supine patients, bring the system as close as possible to the
Bedside. As a safety precaution you can connect a hose from your
room vent to the exhaust port located just below the overhang on
the patient side of the Pulmonex II. Do not leave this connected
all the time. It will shorten the life of the traps.
Caution: Some patients are sensitive to Oxygen. Consult a
physician before using Oxygen. If the physician prefers,
substitute room air for Oxygen.

Attention : Certains patients réagissent à l’oxygène. Se
référer à un médecin avant d’utiliser de l’oxygène. Utiliser
l’air ambiant quand indiqué.
6. To add Oxygen, connect and clamp a .25" Oxygen hose from
your supply to the Oxygen inlet port on the Pulmonex II front
panel.
Caution : Do not use humidified Oxygen.

Ensure that the shipping cap is removed from the exhaust port
located on the lower cabinet on the rear of the unit (facing the
patient).
8. In the lower cabinet is a plug socket that the power pack for the
xenon monitor can plug into. This socket receives power as long
as the power switch to the Pulmonex is ON. Do not plug anything
but the xenon monitor into this socket. (See Figure 7.)
