4.3.4 Electronic Flowmeter Calibration (factory)
NOTE
z
Before calibrating the electronic flowmeter, verify if the electronic flowmeter
configuration displayed is same to the actual flowmeter configuration of the
anesthesia machine at the start-up. Make sure that no technical alarm occurs. If
there is, eliminate the technical alarm as per 5Troubleshooting and then perform
calibration.
z
When replacing the electronic flowmeter board or the flow restricting device of the
electronic flowmeter, or detecting that the deviation between the measured value of
the electronic flowmeter and that of the standard flow measurement device exceeds
10% or 0.1 L/min (whichever is greater), you need to calibrate the electronic
flowmeter again.
4.3.4.1 Calibration Procedures
NOTE
z
Before calibrating the electronic flowmeter, make sure that the breathing system
leak test in mechanical ventilation mode is already passed, so as to ensure that all
the gases flowing through the electronic flowmeter module pass through the low
flow inlet of the anesthesia machine calibration device.
z
When calibrating the electronic flowmeter of one gas, turn off other gases or
disconnect other gas supplies.
1. Perform leak test of the breathing system in mechanical ventilation mode and make sure
that the test is passed.
2. Zero the anesthesia machine calibration device as per the method for factory flow
calibration.
3. Use communication cable B to connect the calibration communication connector of the
calibration device with that of the anesthesia machine (also the CIS power connector), as
shown below.
