Function check
After confi rming no leaks are present in the ventilator, input hose
and patient circuit, with the mains electrical supply connected,
proceed as follows:
1. Turn on the ventilator and select child default setting by
depressing the control knob (M) (Figure 01).
2. Let the ventilator cycle a minimum of fi ve (5) breathes
and during cycling disconnect power supply, the ventilator
should switch immediately to internal battery power. The LED
indicators should also switch to show the ventilator is running
on the internal battery.
3. Check battery level. Do not run the ventilator if the battery level
is low, install a fully charged battery before continuing with the
testing.
4. During ventilator cycling, observe the presence of the pressure
wave and the live ventilation parameters on the screen.
5. Disconnect the test lung and check for the BCI (Breathing
Circuit Integrity) visual alarm associated with yellow warning
indicator. The BCI audible alarm associated with red warning
indicator will activate with a delay of 15 seconds.
6. Block the patient output completely, the Pmax alarm should be
activated.
7. Re-connect the test lung, the BCI visual and audible alarms
should be de-activated.
8. Change the tidal volume (Vt) and observe the changes in the
lung movement, live ventilation parameters, and the pressure
wave form.
9. Change the ventilation rate (bpm) and observe changes in the
lung movement, live ventilation parameters and the pressure
wave form.
10. Change the I:E ratio or inspiratory time (Ti) and observe the
changes in the lung movement, live ventilation parameters and
the pressure wave form.
11. Turn off PEEP and observe changes in the lung movement, live
ventilation parameters and the pressure wave form.
12. Activate pause, night mode, and fl ow waveform to ensure
proper functioning of each control and observe the changes in
the screen display.
13. Turn off the oxygen cylinder and check for low pressure and no
pressure audible and visual alarms.
14. Turn off the Ventilator by pressing ON/OFF key for 4 seconds.
