1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter gives an overview of the PV 101+ and PV 102+ devices and the service
manual.
1.1 About the PV 101+ and PV 102+
The PV 101+ and PV 102+ are intended for use in homes, while travelling or in institu-
tions. They are bi-level devices, which means that the expiration pressure (EPAP) can
be set lower than the inspiration pressure (IPAP).
1.1.1 Intended use of the PV 101+
The BREAS PV 101+ device is intended for treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea.
1.1.2 Intended use of the PV 102+
The BREAS PV 102+ device is intended for treatment of obstructive and central sleep
apnoea, hypopnea and other forms of sleep-related breathing problems. The back-up
rate is adjustable, as well as the rise time, which makes it possible to customise the time
for the pressure to change from EPAP to IPAP.
1.1.3 Design and function
The PV 101+ and PV 102+ are based on a blower which is driven by an electronically
controlled servomotor. The microprocessor-based electronics calculates, from the set
pressure, rate, rise time etc., the correct motor speed. The set pressure and trigger sen-
sitivity is continuously monitored.
An audible alarm is immediately given in the event of a power failure.
1.1.4 Service personnel’s training requirements
Service personnel working with the PV 101+ and PV 102+ devices should have medi-
cal/technical training and a good knowledge of the construction and function of respira-
tory devices. Authorisation by BREAS PV 101+/PV 102+ service training is
recommended.
Always contact your BREAS representative if you have any questions or if
training is required.
