Assembly and preparation
Transport
If the device collides with an obstacle during transport, the pressure reducers may
be damaged. Take the following measures before transporting:
►
Align the pressure reducers so that they are protected from collisions.
►
Close the valves on the gas cylinders.
During transport, the device may tip over due to incorrect handling or carelessness.
Personal injury or property damage may result as a consequence.
►
To push or pull the device, hold it by the standard rail with the handle (right-hand
side of device).
►
The device may only be moved by persons who have the physical ability to do
so.
►
Always have the device moved by 2 persons for better maneuverability and
when it is being transported over sloping surfaces.
►
When the device is moved over inclines, around corners, or over thresholds
(e.g., through doors or in elevators), make sure that it does not bump against
anything.
►
Do not pull the device over hoses, cables, or other obstacles lying on the floor.
►
Do not operate either the central brake or any of the castor brakes while the
device is being moved.
►
Do not lean against the device.
4.1.4
Color codes and labels
If the vaporizer is filled with the wrong anesthetic agent or if the filling level is too
low, incorrect anesthetic gas concentrations or concentrations that are too low can
occur as a result.
►
Compare the color code and labeling on the vaporizer used with the anesthetic
agent bottle and the anesthetic agent indicated on the screen.
4.1.5 Gas
supply
All gas supplies (central supply, gas cylinders) must be correctly connected since
otherwise the backup system (gas cylinders) will not be available if the gas supply
fails. Other devices, e.g., a bronchial suction system, which are connected to the
gas outlets of the device, will no longer be supplied with gas. As a result, the patient
could be put at risk.
►
Make sure that all compressed gas hoses are correctly connected to the rear
side of the device.
►
After connecting the gas supplies, ensure their functional integrity. Set the
supply pressure from the gas cylinders in accordance with the specifications on
the device.
►
Even when the device is connected to the central supply, the gas cylinders
should remain by the device with valves closed as backup.
►
Always monitor the gas supply to connected devices independently of the main
device.
