WARNING
•
Before using the Nurse Call system, ensure that its connections are secure and it operates properly. For
more information, contact Puritan Bennett.
Caution
•
To connect the Puritan Bennett 540™ Ventilator to a nurse call device, first contact Puritan Bennett to verify
device compatibility and to obtain a suitable connection cable.
•
Do not use Nurse Call devices that operate based on the closure of an electrical circuit, because the devices
often do not take into account possible cable disconnection or a total loss of power. Ensure that the Nurse Call
device is always connected to the ventilator.
