General Description
2
Gas Entry Via
Cylinder
Yokes
The Narkomed GS can be equipped with a maximum of two oxygen and
two nitrous oxide cylinder hanger yokes. An additional yoke for an
optional third gas is also available. To prevent a cylinder from being
improperly connected, the yokes are labeled, color-coded, and keyed for
gas-specific cylinders using the pin-indexed safety system.
A filter within each yoke prevents foreign material from entering the
internal gas piping of the Narkomed GS. A check valve in each yoke
prevents leakage into the atmosphere if the cylinder is not mounted on the
yoke. When the machine is configured with two yokes for the same gas, the
check valve prevents movement of gas from one cylinder to the other. If a
cylinder is not mounted to a yoke, the attached yoke plug should be placed
between the yoke handle's threaded bolt and the yoke's gas inlet.
When attaching a cylinder, make sure that only one washer is installed
between the cylinder and the yoke gas inlet. Using multiple washers may
compromise the pin-indexed safety system. Be sure to verify the integrity
of both index pins whenever you install a new cylinder.
WARNING:
Check cylinder yokes for the presence of two index pins each
time you attach a cylinder to the machine. Use only one
cylinder gasket per yoke; using more than one gasket could
cause leakage of the cylinder gas and compromise the pin-
indexed safety system.
Cylinders attached to the hanger yokes must contain gas at the
recommended pressures outlined in Table 2-2. (Indicated pressures are of
E-size cylinders at 70
°
F, or 21
°
C.) Cylinders measuring less than the
minimum recommended pressure (PSI - MIN) should be replaced with
new, full cylinders.
