INITIAL OPERATION
4.3.2
CONNECTINg THE OXygENATOR
• Attach the hose couplings to the couplings on the
unit. The couplings are connected correctly if the
coupling on the hose coupling locks into place in the
coupling on the unit such that it cannot come loose.
• Undo the couplings by pressing on the metal plate on
the hose coupling and pulling out the hose.
• An adapter is used to connect the hose to the Hansen
coupling on the oxygenator. Hansen couplings are
couplings that can be connected to all Medos oxy-
genators. The couplings are connected correctly if the
coupling on the hose locks into the coupling on the
unit such that it cannot come loose.
• The connections between the unit and
the oxygenator are correct if the water
flow meter rotates when the unit is
switched on.
• Before use, check that the hoses are
connected correctly to the oxygenator
• The oxygenator can also be discon-
nected while the unit is on.
• There will be a slight drip when the
couplings are undone. This is normal
and not a sign of a leak or defect.
• In heating mode: Lower the target
temperature before disconnecting
the oxygenator. Otherwise, the water
in the unit’s circuit will briefly heat
up above the target temperature and
trigger the alarm TEMP.DIFF > 1 °C
(depending on the time lapse).
