2.3.4 The Pneumatic
Vent Engine
The Pneumatic Vent Engine components in the Aestiva machine or the
Aespire machine are identical; however, the complete assemblies are not
interchangeable due to packaging considerations. The pneumatic engine
enclosure is located in the back chamber of the breathing system and is
shielded to contain EMI emissions. The enclosure includes the Pneumatic
Vent Engine (PE/VE) and a Pneumatic Vent Engine control Board
(PEB/VEB).
The Pneumatic Vent Engine comprises the hardware that drives the ventilator
bellows. It includes:
•
a 2-micron inlet filter
•
a pressure regulator
•
a proportional inspiratory valve
•
a mechanical over-pressure relief valve
•
a free-breathing check valve
•
a PEEP safety valve
•
a supply pressure sense switch
•
a proportional PEEP valve
•
a 200 mL reservoir
•
a calibrated bleed orifice
The Pneumatic Vent Engine Board is an interface between the engine
components and the control board and includes:
•
an airway pressure transducer
