b. Make sure the fill and drain valves are completely closed.
c.
Check the vaporizer exclusion device, which prevents more than
one vaporizer from being activated simultaneously. Make sure that
when one vaporizer handwheel is turned to a setting greater than
0, the others remain locked in their 0 positions. Test all of the
vaporizer positions. Then, turn all vaporizers to the 0 position.
System Gas
Circuit
Verification
13. * Check the flowmeters. Adjust the flow control knob for each gas and
verify the proper operation of the corresponding flowmeters. The float
must move freely over the full range of each flowmeter.
Oxygen
Monitor
Calibration
14. * Calibrate the oxygen monitor by exposing the sensor to ambient air
and activate the calibration key. (See “Calibrating the Oxygen Sensor”
on page 12-4 for more information.)
a. Place the oxygen sensor securely in the sensor mount.
b. Verify that the correct gas concentrations are supplied to the
anesthesia system from the supply cylinders.
c.
Close the cylinder supplies and deplete the pressure from the
system.
OFPD
Verification
15. * Check the oxygen failure protection device. With all gases available
on the machine set to a flow of about 4 l/min, close the oxygen supply
by disconnecting the oxygen pipeline supply hose and closing the
oxygen cylinder(s). The flow of all other gases indicated by their
flowmeters must decrease in proportion to the decrease in oxygen flow
and eventually shut off.
ORC
Verification
16. * Check the function of the ORC. With the nitrous oxide flow control
valve open to a flow of 10 l/min, vary the oxygen flow with the oxygen
flow control valve. The nitrous oxide flow indicated on the nitrous oxide
flowmeter must automatically vary in response to the adjustment of
the oxygen flow control valve.
The ORC must maintain a fresh gas oxygen/nitrous oxide flow ratio of at
least 25 ±4% oxygen.
NOTE:
When the nitrous oxide flow control valve is open and oxygen
is flowing at a minimum rate (150–200 ml/min), nitrous oxide
flows at approximately 500 ml/min.
Oxygen
Flush
Verification
17. * Check the oxygen flush:
a. Press the oxygen flush button and listen for an audible gas flow
sound, accompanied by a marked increase in oxygen concentration
in the breathing system.
