ATTERY
The ventilator can operate from a 12 VDC deep cycle marine-type (lead acid) battery using the Respironics
Trilogy External Battery Cable. This cable is pre-wired and properly terminated to ensure safe connection of an
external battery to the ventilator. Battery operating time depends on the characteristics of the battery and
usage of the device.
Due to a variety of factors, including battery chemistry, battery age, and use profile, the capacity of the external
battery as shown on the Trilogy display is only an estimate of the actual remaining capacity.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the Respironics External Battery Cable for detailed information on how
to operate the device using an external battery.
WARNING
Before connecting the battery, shutoff and disconnect any oxygen sources connected to the
ventilator, and move the battery at least 1.83 meters (6 feet) away from any oxygen sources.
CAUTION
•
Do not use the same external battery to operate both the ventilator and any other equipment.
•
An external battery should only be connected to the ventilator using the Respironics Trilogy
External Battery Cable. This cable is fused, pre-wired and properly terminated to ensure
safe connection to a standard deep cycle lead acid battery. Use of any other adaptor or
cable may cause improper operation of the ventilator.
