Chapter 5
Operation
CAUTION
Please read the instruction manual carefully before operating the PACU unit. All statements regarding
safety and technical specifications will only apply when the unit is operated correctly. This equipment
is intended for laboratory use only and is not certified for medical applications, including but not
limited to life support situations.
The flow rate of the Viton membrane pump is continuously adjustable by a knob on the front panel and is measured
by an in-line flow meter immediately before the output. A series of vent holes is provided on top of the housing,
which makes it possible for the user to see if satuaration has occured in the desiccant without dismantling the unit.
Pink desiccant indicates that the desiccant is saturated and should be replaced. An elapsed time counter on the
front indicates how long the unit has been in service. For instructions on how to replace the desiccant filter, please
see section 6.2. During standard operation it is recommended that the air flow meter is checked in regular intervals.
