INTRODUCTION
The
Model 2002
PRO
/2002IE
PRO
Veterinary
Anesthesia Ventilator
are designed
specifically for veterinary anesthesia use. It is volume cycled with a choice of three bellows
sizes, providing consistent IPPV for patients from rabbits to foals.
The
Model 2002
PRO
/2002IE
PRO
from
Hallowell EMC
incorporates experience resulting from
over twenty years of ventilator design and manufacture. The device is small, portable, and quiet
in operation. It has been designed to be economical in its consumption of supply gas.
The ventilator consists of two main assemblies: the controller assembly, comprising all
electronics, regulatory and control electronics and pneumatics; and the bellows assembly,
comprising the bellows base with pop-off valve, the bellows and the bellows housing. The
bellows assembly is easily removed to facilitate cleaning and sterilization. Equally as easily, the
different size bellows and bellows housings may be interchanged on the same bellows base to
minimize the ventilator's contribution to the compliance of the breathing system, and to provide
increased resolution on the tidal volume scale in the 0-300 ml tidal volume range.
The bellows base is of injection molded ULTEM
, a product of General Electric Plastics.
ULTEM
is a high temperature, high-impact resistant material that is unaffected by water or the
presence of all state-of-the-art anesthetics. In addition, the high temperature properties of
ULTEM
make it fully compatible with standard steam sterilization techniques.
The
Model 2002
PRO
/2002IE
PRO
is shipped as a free-standing unit with the bellows assembly
mounted on top of the controller. For custom installations such as for use in conjunction with
MRI units, the bellows assembly may be separated from the controller and mounted in a location
closer to the patient. As supplied, the ventilator may be located on the anesthesia machine shelf
or cart, or on a table top. The rubber feet can be removed for installation on an optional heavy-
duty stand with casters. The stand increases the mobility of the unit permitting convenient use in
multiple operating rooms. Optionally,
Hallowell EMC
provides mounting hardware for the
Matrx VMC and Spartan, VMS and VML anesthesia machines. Mounting hardware is also
available for anesthesia machines manufactured by A.M. Bickford, Anesco, Delmarva Labs,
Dispo-Med, SDI, and VetEquip (formally Omni Medical).
Important
Before attempting to use this ventilator, it is important that you first thoroughly familiarize
yourself with this manual. After your review, you should complete the receiving and setup
procedures, then perform the verification check with a test lung, as described herein. Become
familiar with the ventilator's controls during the verification check, and observe the effect of
control adjustments on the breathing system.
