RP27 – Case Cleaning

a. Clean using household glass cleaner or Simple Green D and

lint-free cloth. Do not get glass cleaner inside case or onto any 

plumbing components. Simple Green D is available at www.

simplegreend.com

b. If necessary, a soft bristle brush can be used to help remove dirt 

and debris. If desired, Caire, Inc. Technical Service can sup-

ply a specific list of additionale reccommended cleaning tools.

c. Allow unit to dry thoroughly before filling.

RP28 – Normal Evaporation Rate Test

a. Fill unit following procedure found in the Patient Operating

Instructions (POI).

b. Push button and check that all 8 LEDs are on, or verify that

the spring scale reads full.

c. Check for leaks in QDV and vent valve.

d. Let unit sit 16–18 hours.

e. Make sure FCV and vent valves are closed.

f. Do not move unit during this time.

g. If the Hi Flow is at least half full (4 LEDs), the unit passes.

Maximum loss rate prior to dewar servicing is 1.75 lbs./day

(0,8 kg/day).

NOTE: Clean case only after unit is empty and warm. Do not 

clean in oxygen enriched atmosphere.

NOTE: Only use disinfectants or cleaning agents approved 

for use with this equipment by CAIRE such as Sporicidin®, 

HydroPure®, Hydroklean®, or others as specified by CAIRE.

Relief Valve Test

WARNING:

 The unit must be empty, warm and vented before 

starting procedure.

a.

Remove case (RP4).

b.

Assemble pressure gauge (Item J) and adapter assembly.

 

Thread

 

hose barb onto pressure gauge. Push tubing onto hose

 

barb

 

and

 

attach with clamp.

c.

Assemble oxygen regulator, hose and pneumatic adapter.

 

Connect assembly to oxygen gas source. Connect pneumatic

 

adapter to unit QDV (Item 37

 or 62

).

d.

Slowly begin increasing pressure to between 1,

35-1,4

,

psig. PRV (Item 

49

) should begin venting

(audible noise  will be heard or bubbling will be seen if leak

 

testing).

e.

Slowly begin decreasing the pressure until the PRV (Item

 49)

 

closes, meaning the audible noise is no longer heard or the

 

bubbling is no longer seen if leak testing. The pressure at

 

which

 

the audible noise or bubbling is no longer seen should

 

be

 

greater than 1.

f.

Hold PRV (Item 49) closed (with finger) and increase pres-sure 

to 1,9-2,3 bar (27-33 psig). SRV (Item 43) must begin

 

open 

(audible venting and/or bubbling of leak test solution).

g.

Slowly begin decreasing the pressure until the SRV 

(Item 43)

 

closes, meaning the audible noise is no longer heard or the

 

bubbling is no longer seen if leak testing. The pressure at

 

which

 

the audible noise or bubbling is no longer seen should

 

be

 

greater than 1,

Slowly begin decreasing the pressure

 

in order to release the

 

finger from the PRV.
