Operation the device
Connecting the device to the power supply.
The ADS clinic must connect to a power strip of 230 V/50Hz to operate. Other voltages or
frequencies are not allowed, it can lead to damage of the device.
Connecting an AirMed PLUS mattress to the device
For the operating of the ADS
clinic
, an AirMedPLUS patient’s mattress must be connected. See
chapter “Turning on the device” for instructions. The ADS
clinic
offers specially adapted
pressure protocols, which contains parameters to set the pressure value of the mattresses
exactly, in order to ensure optimal pressure relief. Other types of patient’s mattresses from
manufacturers other than listed are not allowed and should not be used in combination with
the ADS
clinic
.
Connecting the mattress to the ADS
clinic
is made via the triple pneumatic encrypted plug at
the bottom of the pump. Both the pneumatic plug and the pneumatic plug on the pump side
are encoded and fit, but in one direction. For support, there are two identical looking triangle
symbols on both parts made, which should be on the same side of the mattress for connecti-
on, and visible on both sides for the user.
To the three hose connector plugs, at the mattress side, black O-rings for sealing are there.
To connect the mattress to the device (pump) checks the O-ring per connection. Three O-
rings in total should be available and undamaged. You can order the O-rings at the service
center as a replacement part (item number 99-1131). Make sure all hoses are at one
direction of the pneumatic plug and whether they are stuck. For attaching, you press the
locking hooks at the mattress side together easy. You have to stick the plug on the mattress
side into the pneumatic connector of the pump and release the clamps.
At a normal connection without pressing the clamps together, you will hear a "click" sound.
If you can't hear a "click" as the mounting clamps of the pneumatic plug when inserting the
plug into the pneumatic box be squeezed.
Please note:
One of both damaged fasteners or one or more missing or damaged O-rings or one
or more pneumatic hose couplings not stuck on the plug of the mattress can lead
to leakages and thus lead to a not intended use of the system.
The mattress is placed on a suitable bed, the connection of the hose must always at the
foot end of the bed are. All surfaces in beds with adjustable mattresses can be used.
Please make sure, that hoses or cells aren’t snapped, dense or damaged, by the bed or
parts of the bed, or adjustable surfaces.
Mattress type 1:
At this type of mattress it acts to an existing mattress which remains in bed.
The mattress will be stabbed to the rubber pull direction at the head and foot area
of the mattress. On both sides of the mattress (3 left and 3 right), top straps
are located, that only to the slatted or when available, to place able parts of
the slatted may fixed. The top straps possess snap-pieces, which once on the
right length, can be set and retain its customer specific length.
