trator. Make sure you read and understand all the
information contained in this manual before you
operate your unit. Should you have any questions,
your Equipment Provider will be happy to answer
them for you.
• Compressor Motor: A pressure relief valve is
fitted to the compressor outlet and is calibrated to
280 kPa (40 psig). Thermal safety is ensured by
a thermostat situated in the stator winding of the
compressor (135°C / 275 °F).
• General Malfunction: If any of the conditions
listed below occurs, the general malfunction light
(
) will illuminate and an audible intermittent
alarm will activate.
This includes:
• Obstruction to the flow of oxygen such as a
pinch or kink in the delivery cannula, trig-
gered by high product tank pressure
• High device product tank pressure condition
of greater than 33psig (±1)
• Low device product tank pressure condition
of less than 5psig (±1)
• High device temperature of greater than
135°C (275 °F), triggered by low product
tank pressure if the thermal switch located
within the compressor trips (shutting down
the compressor)
Device warning label and alarm display.
• Oxygen Monitor: The oxygen monitor detects
