Proceed as follows to supply oxygen:
1. Switch on the therapy device.
2. Connect the O
2
coupling supplied to the connector
stub provided on the therapy device.
3. Connect the oxygen source to the O
2
coupling.
4. Start the supply of oxygen. When doing so, it is
essential to follow the instructions for use of the
oxygen source in question. The device can now be
operated normally.
Proceed as follows to end supply of oxygen:
1. Shut off the oxygen supply.
2. Continue operating the device for a while without an oxygen supply to flush the
remaining oxygen out of the device. If this instruction is not followed, there is a risk of
fire in the event of a malfunction.
3. Remove the adapter for the oxygen supply from the device.
4. Switch off the device. The safety valve for the oxygen supply automatically shuts off the
oxygen supply after 1 minute.
Oxygen can be supplied via an oxygen concentrator (e.g. Weinmann Oxymat 3), via the
central gas supply system (only with corresponding pressure reducer) of a hospital, in the
form of liquid oxygen with a continuous flow or of an oxygen cylinder with a corresponding
pressure reducer.
4.7.2
Measure oxygen concentration (only valve ventilation)
The oxygen sensor can only be used in conjunction with valve ventilation.
During measurement, oxygen concentration is averaged over several breaths and
displayed. Measured values depend on therapy pressure and on the temperature of
ambient and respiratory air. This is not a FiO
2
measurement, but the mean value of oxygen
concentration on inspiration.
1. The adapter is delivered in three parts: the oxygen
sensor (
1
), the T-adapter (
3
) and an air management
adapter (
2
). Screw the air management adapter onto
the oxygen sensor.
