Maintenance Precautions
Caution
•
To ensure proper servicing and avoid the possibility of physical injury to personnel or damage to the
ventilator, only qualified personnel should attempt to service the Puritan Bennett 540™ Portable Ventilator.
Caution
Environment:
•
Avoid using the ventilator, if possible, in dusty environments. Dusty environments may require more vigilant
monitoring, cleaning, and/or replacement of air intake and other filters.
Electrical Power Supplies:
•
Before using the ventilator’s internal battery, ensure that the battery is fully charged and that the charge holds.
•
Do not store the internal battery, either installed within or removed from the ventilator, for more than two (2)
years.
•
To connect the ventilator to an external power source, first ensure the ventilator’s I/O switch is off ( O ).
Then, connect the desired power cable to the ventilator. Finally, connect the power cable to the external
power source.
•
To disconnect the ventilator from an external power source, first power-down the ventilator. Then, disconnect
the power cable from the external power source and, finally, the ventilator.
•
Do not leave power cables lying on the ground where they may pose a hazard.
•
Ensure that the AC power cable is in perfect condition and not compressed.
•
To connect the ventilator to a Nurse Call device, contact Puritan Bennett to check the ventilator's compatibility
with the Nurse Call device and order a suitable connection cable. Do not use Nurse Call devices that operate
based on the closure of an electrical circuit, because the devices often do not take into account possible cable
disconnection or a total loss of power. Ensure that the Nurse Call device is always connected to the ventilator.
Caution
Hoses and Accessories:
•
Before opening the packaging for the Patient Circuit, ensure that no damage is evident to the packaging or its
contents. If evidence of damage exists, contact your supplier.
Caution
•
Before cleaning the ventilator, first disconnect the ventilator and the circuit.
•
Never use a liquid cleaner inside the patient circuit, or on any component of a gas pathway. Clean the patient
circuit only as specified by the manufacturer's instructions.
•
If the ventilator is used indoors, the condition of the air inlet filter should be checked monthly. If the ventilator
is used outdoors or in a dusty environment, the filter should be checked weekly and replaced as necessary.
•
The air inlet filter is not reusable; do not attempt to wash, clean, or reuse it.
•
Failing to replace a dirty
air inlet filter,
or operating the ventilator without
a
filter, may cause serious damage
to the ventilator.
•
Except for changing the battery (as required by qualified technicians or the Clinician), do not attempt to open
the ventilator’s enclosure. Doing so might result in damage to the device and/or may void your warranty.
