1. Align the humidifier mounting plate and the slot, and slide the humidifier in.
2. Tighten the screw.
3. Mount the filters onto the inspiratory and expiratory ports.
4. Connect the inspiratory filter to the humidifier inlet via the tube.
5. Connect the humidifier outlet to the water trap via the tube. Then, connect the water trap
to the Y piece via the tube.
6. Connect the expiratory filter to the water trap via the tube. Then, connect the water trap
to the Y piece via the tube.
7. Place the patient tubing onto the support arm hook.
The rated range of the ventilator breathing system (VBS):
Inspiratory and expiratory gas pathway resistance: 0 to 6 cmH

3.7 Install the Nebulizer
NOTE

Install the specified nebulizer. The nebulizer assembly and its installation steps described
in this section are only for reference. Refer to the nebulizer accompanying directions for
use to install and use the nebulizer.

To prevent the expiration valve from sticking due to nebulized medications, use only
medications approved for nebulization, and regularly check and clean or replace the
expiration valve membrane.

Do not use an expiratory filter or HME in the patient’s breathing circuit during
nebulization. Nebulization can cause an expiratory side filter to clog, substantially
increasing flow resistance and impairing ventilation.

Connect the nebulizer to the inspiratory limb. Connecting the nebulizer between the
patient connector and the endotracheal tube increases dead space ventilation.
