4.9 Fitting the Ventilator into the Dual Bag
The Dual Bag is a carrying bag with a dual function. It allows the Puritan Bennett™ 560 Ventilator to either be
mounted onto a wheelchair or carried as a backpack. (see
Figure 4-19 )
Warning
Ensure that the ventilator is switched off and disconnected from all external power supplies
before installation.
To fit the ventilator into the Dual Bag do the following:
1. Open the rear panel of the Dual Bag.
2. Slip the ventilator into the Dual Bag, pushing it in completely to ensure a snug fit.
3. Shut the rear panel of the Dual Bag ensuring that the hook and loop fastener strips are securely
fastened.
4.10 Mounting the Ventilator on a Wheelchair
Warning
Due to its limited internal battery’s reserve capacity, the ventilator should only be operated on
the internal battery when no other power source is available. Ensure that the internal battery
never becomes fully discharged.
Do not operate the ventilator in direct sunlight, near heat sources, outdoors, or near
installations where liquid may pose a risk without first providing adequate protection for the
device.
To avoid damage to the ventilator, in particular the batteries or electrical components, fluids
must not be allowed to enter the device, particularly through the air inlet filter or the cooling
apertures located in the side, rear, and bottom panels of the ventilator.
If exhaled tidal volume measurements are required to ensure correct patient ventilation a
double limb patient circuit configuration must be used in order to detect leaks. In this case, both
the minimum and maximum VTE alarm parameters must be properly set to warn in the event of
patient disconnection.
To minimise the risk of damage, you must use the ventilator’s Dual Bag to transport the
ventilator. See Table F-1,
List of Consumables and Accessories .
Before using the ventilator’s internal battery, ensure that the battery is fully charged and that
the charge holds. Back up ventilators or those in storage should be connected to an AC power
source to protect the integrity of the battery.
Regularly check the cleanliness of the air inlet filter located on the rear of the ventilator. If
necessary, replace the filter before the recommended replacement period is over. This is
particularly important when the ventilator is installed on a wheelchair, because environmental
conditions may cause the filter to become dirty more rapidly.
