Warning
The coupler must not remain connected to the oxygen connector unless it also connected to a
leak-proof, external oxygen gas source. When an oxygen supply is not being used with the
ventilator, disconnect the oxygen source completely from the ventilator.
In the event of an oxygen leak, shut down the supply of oxygen at its source. In addition,
remove and/or keep any incandescent source away from the device, which may be enriched
with oxygen. Circulate fresh air into the room to bring the oxygen level down to normal.
To prevent any interference with the internal sensors of the ventilator, do not install a
humidifier upstream of the ventilator.
4.8.3 Connecting the FIO
2
sensor
When administering oxygen it is recommended to use a FIO
2
oxygen sensor that can be connected to the
front of the apparatus by means of a FIO
2
measurement kit.
To install the FIO
2
sensor:
Figure 4-18. Connecting the FIO
2
sensor
1. Remove the sensor from the airtight packaging.
2. Install the FIO
2
connector to the FIO
2
socket on the ventilator (item 1)
3. Connect the FIO
2
sensor (item 2) onto Ø15mm adaptor (item 3).
4. Install the adaptor on the TO PATIENT outlet port, as shown.
Fit the patient circuit after the adaptor.
Note:
The FIO
2
sensor requires calibration and should only be removed or cleaned by qualified personnel.
When using a new sensor, allow its temperature to become stable for about 20 minutes in ambient air
before installing it, calibrating it and starting ventilation.
