CHECKING AND REPLACING THE CONDENSATION TRAY
The condensation tray collects water condensate from humidity in the air.
Check the condensation tray daily, or more frequently if needed. The frequency that the condensation tray needs
to be checked and emptied will depend on the amount of humidity in the ambient air. The more humidity that is in
the air, the more frequently the condensation tray will need to be checked, emptied, and replaced.
NOTE:
The compressor is shipped with a condensation tray already installed.
Place the patient on an alternate means of ventilation.
If operating in Stationary or Extended Range Configuration, power off the ventilator.
Power off the compressor.
Twist the thumb screw counterclockwise until the
tray is released.
Carefully slide the condensation tray out from the
back of the compressor, attempting to keep the
condensation tray level.
If water has collected in the condensation tray,
completely remove the condensation tray from the
compressor and empty the water thoroughly. Squeeze the attached condensation tray sponge to remove as
much water as possible (some remaining dampness is normal).
NOTE:
Do not try to remove the sponge from the condensation tray.
Ensure that the overflow hole is not blocked.
Inspect the condensation tray and replace it if it has any damage or if the sponge shows signs of
degradation, contamination, or odor.
If replacing the condensation tray, obtain a replacement condensation tray. For more information about
purchasing replacement condensation trays, refer to "Accessories and Replacement Parts" on page 147.
Insert the condensation tray into the compressor.
Tighten the thumb screw by twisting it clockwise
until the condensation tray is secure.
NOTE:
Dispose of used condensation trays in
accordance with your facility's guidelines or local
regulations.
WARNING:
• Do not power on or use the compressor without the filters and condensation tray properly installed.
• Do not insert foreign objects into any part of the ventilation system.
CAUTION:
Use only an approved condensation tray with the compressor.
