PROCEDURE 6

REGULATOR

1. Turn unit ON.

2. Install pressure gauge onto oxygen outlet.

NOTE: Check O2 pressure at oxygen outlet. It should read a steady 5 p.s.i. + 0.5 p.s.i. If pressure is
not in specification, proceed to STEP 3. If difficulty is encountered in adjusting or maintaining
5 p.s.i. + 0.5 p.s.i., refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE in this manual for assistance. If pres-
sure does fall within specification, operate normally.

CAUTION

TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK, ALWAYS DISCONNECT CONCENTRATOR FROM
ELECTRICAL OUTLET BEFORE SERVICING.

3. Unplug unit.

4. Remove cabinet (Refer to PROCEDURE 1 - REMOVING CABINET).

5. Move product tank back to access regulator (Refer to PROCEDURE 6 - REPLACING/ADJUSTING

REGULATOR - Replacing Regulator [FIGURE 1]).

6. Plug unit in and turn power switch ON.

7. Locate the pressure adjustment screw in center of regulator.

8. Insert a 3/32-inch Allen wrench into the pressure adjustment screw.

9. While reading pressure gauge, turn pressure adjustment screw:

a) Clockwise to increase output pressure or;

b) Counterclockwise to decrease output pressure.

10. Reinstall cabinet (Refer to PROCEDURE 1 - REMOVING CABINET).
