Connecting the Astral External Battery 

The Astral External Battery has been designed specifically for use with the Astral Series of ventilators. It 
is intended to provide Astral ventilators with eight hours of power during typical use. 
For full details on using the Astral External Battery, refer to the External Battery user guide.   
 

 

 

Using the External Battery 

Connecting a fully charged External Battery to the Astral device can provide 8 hours of power during 
typical use. A second fully charged External Battery can be connected to the Astral device to provide a 

further 8 hours of power during typical use. A maximum of two external batteries can be connected to 
the Astral device. 
Once the External Battery is connected to the Astral device, the DC mains indicator on the user interface 
will illuminate. 

 

  WARNING 

•

 

Do not attempt to connect more than two external batteries. Battery specific messages and 
alarms on the Astral device will not operate for any additional units. 

•

 

In the unlikely event of an issue occurring with the external battery, Astral will sound an alarm 

and notify the user indicating that the device is operating on internal battery power. Ventilation 
will continue, however, users should connect to an alternative external power source (eg, AC 
power or another external battery) as soon as possible. 

 
Alarms and messages relating to the External Battery may occur from time to time. All message 

information will be displayed on the Astral user interface, and will be accompanied by an audible signal. 
Refer to the Alarms Troubleshooting (see page 155) for further information.
