3. Check the condition of the babyPAC 100 (continued)
x)
The O
2
concentration knob index mark should be equally spaced from each end of the yellow
calibration scale.
xi)
PEEP/CPAP and Inspiratory controls should align closely with the calibration marks at the
extreme positions but should also just enter the red segment of the calibration mark when each
knob initially comes into contact with the rumble strip at their intermediate positions.
xii) The Pressure Alarm control knob should align with the extremes of the calibration marks.
xiii) The dot on the Function Selector switch should align with the marks on the panel at each
selection and there should be no intermediate positions.
xiv) If the index mark on any knob side or the cap end is misaligned it should be corrected before
further calibration checks are carried out.
xv) To relocate the knob position for controls (except the Pressure Alarm and Function Selector)
first remove the end cap from the knob.
xvi) Turn the knob nearly to the end stop at which it is at its maximum height above the panel
(timer controls at minimum time, pressure controls at maximum pressure and O
2
Concentration control at 100%) in order to minimise possible needle/seat contact during knob
removal.
xvii) Using an appropriate collet spanner (e.g. 500-82073) and supporting the knob by hand in
order to minimise any axial thrust on the spindle, release the knob from the spindle.
xviii) Set the T
INS
and T
EXP
spindles against their 0.25 second stops and replace the knobs onto the
spindles.
xix) Maintaining a gap to the face panel of 0.4/0.5 mm and correct alignment at the 0.25 second
calibration, gently retighten the knob collet using only a rotary action. Check that the knobs
align with the scale at both ends.
xx) Rotate the knobs until they are just backed-off from the maximum time stop and then tighten
the collet screw as tightly as possible with recommended tool (500-82037) while
simultaneously supporting the knob by hand to minimise the force applied to the spindle.
xxi) Repeat the above procedure for the O
2
Concentration control but using a minimum gap to the
panel of 0.4/0.5mm and making the initial settings at the minimum concentration calibration.
Check that the knob is located as in x) above. Finally tighten just short of the maximum
calibration position.
xxii) Finally repeat the above procedure for the PEEP/CPAP and Inspiratory Pressure controls but
making the initial settings at the minimum pressure calibration. Check that the knobs are
located as in xi) above and then finally tighten just short of the maximum pressure settings.
xxiii) With the knobs in the final re-tightening position refit the knob cap ensuring the line on the
cap aligns with the line on the side.
xxiv) The Pressure Alarm and Function Selector switch knobs have a fixed location but the cap can
be relocated on the front of the knob if the indication is incorrect.
xxv) If the caps on the above knobs have been removed for relocation or can be rotated, relative to
the knob, during normal operation they should be secured to the knob with a very small drop
of adhesive (DS354 C10/Loctite Prism 460).
xxvi) Check that the gauge surround is secure, the front panel label is secure and not damaged (e.g.
punctured) and the silencing button is undamaged.
xxvii) Check that the gauge is in the correct vertical position and has not rotated in the shroud.
