CALIBRATING THE FiO
2
SENSOR
Calibration is done in relation to the ambient air with an assumption of an oxygen
content of 21 %.
Automatic calibration when the device is switched on (recommended)
When the device is switched on and you connect the FiO
2
sensor to the device,
the FiO
2
sensor will be calibrated automatically. The FiO
2
value readout will be dis-
played in the monitoring screen.
Automatic calibration during running ventilation
If the FiO
2
sensor is disconnected and reconnected during ventilation, then the
oxygen supply is interrupted for at least 30 seconds, so that the oxygen content
in the FiO
2
therapy air is reduced. After successful calibration, the oxygen supply
is restored and the FiO
2
values will be displayed in the monitoring screen again.
Manual calibration
A manual calibration may be performed in the system screen at any time. During
continuous oxygen therapy we recommend manual calibration of the FiO
2
sen-
sor once a week.
To calibrate the FiO
2
sensor:
1. Make sure that the ventilator has been switched off.
2. Install the FiO
2
sensor according to Figure 29.
Tip: Plug and screw the straight plug of the connecting line (A) to the device
and then connect the right-angled to with the FiO
2
sensor.
