Nearly Drained Battery - < 5 Minutes Operation
Alarm triggers when the device detects that there is
≤
5 minutes of battery
operation remaining and external power is not connected. The user should
immediately seek a source of external power and/or plan to provide manual
ventilation. Attaching external power will immediately clear the alarm though a
low priority alarm will remain until the internal battery has recharged so that the
device can provide 30 minutes of operating time. This will take approximately 5
to 10 minutes. If recharging the battery does not resolve the issue, contact the
service center for additional information.
Mitigation/Info:
≤
5 Minutes Operation, Connect External Power, Ensure
Ability to Manually Ventilate, ** Contact Service Center**

Battery Discharge Fault - Battery Within 5 °C of High Limit
Alarm triggers when the battery temperature reaches 70 °C (158 °F) which is
5 °C (41 °F) from its maximum operating temperature using the internal battery
and external power is not connected. When the battery temperature reaches
75 °C (167 °F) the battery will shut down to prevent failure and the device will
sound a high priority alarm and shutdown. If possible the user should provide a
source of external power which will allow operation to continue at the current and
higher temperatures. In addition, the device should be removed from the soft
case which acts as insulation. Shading the patient and ventilator from direct
sunlight may also help reduce the battery temperature.
Mitigation/Info: Battery Within 5 °C of High Limit, Remove Padded Case,
Ensure External Power Available, Ensure Ability to Manually Ventilate,
**Move To Cooler Location**

Battery Fault - Battery Communication
Alarm triggers when the device is not able to communicate with the internal
battery. When this occurs the device does not know the current charge of the
battery and operation could stop at any time. To continue operation and the user
should connect external power and ensure the ability to manually ventilate the
patient. When external power is connected the alarm priority decreases to Low
Priority, replace the ventilator and contact the service center.
Mitigation/Info: Battery Communication, Connect External Power,
Ensure Ability to Manually Ventilate Patient, **Contact Service Center**
