USING YOUR PULSEDOSE COMPACT CONSERVING DEVICE
1. Open the cylinder.
2. Attach the standard nasal cannula to the conserving device and to
your nose and face. Oxygen tubing up to 35 feet long may be used in
PulseDose delivery mode.
3. Turn the rotary selector to the prescribed flow setting.
4. Breathe normally, the conserving device will deliver a bolus of oxygen
at the leading edge of inspiration on every breath up to 40 breaths per
minute.
5. When you are finished using the PulseDose conserving device, turn
your cylinder to the closed position, and rotate the rotary selector to
the “OFF” position.
To prevent injury from cylinders tipping over, do not use cannula
tubing lengths over 10 feet with small compressed oxygen cylinders.
Unattended cylinders should be secured in a cylinder stand.
NOTE– A mask should not be used in the PulseDose delivery mode as it may not fit to
the face well enough to allow the conserving device to sense inhalation efforts.
Also, the therapeutic effect of PulseDose would not be realized, as the dose of
oxygen would be diluted in the mask prior to inhalation.
NOTE– A pediatric or low-flow cannula should not be used in PulseDose delivery mode.
The reduced diameter of the cannula causes too much back pressure and will
affect the oxygen volume delivered.
NOTE– PulseDose delivers oxygen in a very short “puff.” It does not deliver oxygen
during the entire inhalation. The length of time that PulseDose delivers oxygen
will not vary from breath to breath. The time is set in correlation to the oxygen
dosage set on the conserving device (patient’s prescription setting).
NOTE– PulseDose is designed to prevent the delivery of pulses more than every 1 1/2
seconds. If the breath rate is greater than 40 BPM, this feature prevents
delivery of excessive oxygen by not dosing on every breath.
NOTE– If using NiMH batteries, carefully monitor when the low battery indicator
flashes red. It is recommended that a spare fully-charged set of alkaline
batteries be kept in reserve and installed when the change battery indicator is
constant red.

No Inspiration Alarm– If the unit is on and inspiration has not been sensed
for 30 seconds (after at least one breath has been sensed), the audible
alarm will activate every three seconds for one minute and then auto shut-
off.
NOTE– Continuous flow mode is not powered by the batteries and can be used regardless
of the battery level. In the event of a device failure or dead batteries, the user
must manually switch the unit to continuous flow for delivery of oxygen. The
device will not automatically switch to continuous flow. The oxygen cylinder will
not last as long in continuous flow mode as it would in PulseDose mode. Unless
there is a problem with the unit, such as dead batteries, the unit should be used
in PulseDose mode.
INSERTING A BATTERY INTO THE PULSEDOSE COMPACT CONSERVING DEVICE
1. Open the battery door.
2. Insert 2 “AA” Alkaline or NiMH batteries.
3. Close the battery door.
NOTE– When changing batteries, first turn the rotary selector to the “OFF” position.
ATTACHING YOUR PULSEDOSE CONSERVING DEVICE TO THE CYLINDER
Pin Index Connections (Model PD1000)
1. Loosen the knob.
2.Carefully lower the conserving device over the post of the cylinder.
CAUTION– Alignment pins can damage sealing surfaces of the post increasing the chance of
leakage.
3. Align the pins in the conserving device to the holes in the cylinder post as
you would a standard regulator.
4. Hand-tighten the knob until the conserving device is secure.
Threaded Cylinder Connections (Model PD1000U, PD1000R, and PD1000G)
1. Align and start the threads on the conserving device with the threads on the
oxygen cylinder.
2. Orient the conserving device so that the control panel is easily viewed and
the cannula tubing does not kink.
3. Hand-tighten the nut until the conserving device is secure.
