AC/DC adapter:
Manufacturer: Mean Well
Model: GSM25B12
Input: 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz, 0,7-0.35A
Output: 12Vcc 2,08A, 25W Max.
The power cable supplied with the device, must be connected to the device
and at the other side must be connected to a cigarette lighter socket
installed inside the ambulance.
Screw the connector ring manually as much as possible.
Then tighten with a torque of about 2Nm. If the device has to be serviced,
you must disconnect it from the power supply.
If you wish to wire the cable to the mains power of the ambulance, remove
the plug, splice and connect according to the specifications in the table.
After installation and electrical and pneumatic connections, is necessary to
check the proper functioning of the device.
If the device is powered through a power adaptor connected to the mains
power, is necessary to verify that the mains comply with the specification of
the power adaptor.
If the device is connected to the mains through a power supply compliant
with EN 60601-1, the assembly should be considered an EM SYSTEM.
Typically, the power adaptor can be connected to a socket installed inside an
ambulance manufactured according to EN 1789.
The installation of the device must always allow the optimal view of the
control panel and must ensure easy access to the connections.
On the bottom of the device, there are two threaded pads for installation on
a flat floor.
- Drill two holes on the surface for the screws.
- Choose screws of appropriate length according to the installation surface.
- Tighten the screws until a safe fix is reached.
- Make sure the screws are fully seated. If they are not perfectly coupled with
the surfaces, is necessary to choose shorter ones or, if the distance between
the screw and the surface is reduced, apply washers.

Start-Up
For a proper and safe use of the product, proceed as follows:
For the first use, connect the battery because a new ventilator has the battery not connected
Ensure that power and gas supplies comply with the specifications in this manual. Is necessary to ensure that oxygen tanks and pressure
regulators comply with appropriate regulations and directives that can be applied to those devices. Their proper operation should always
be checked before each use..
Always check the residual content of the oxygen bottles.
Connect the patient circuit and all its components to the unit
Check that the pressure gauge is on “zero” position.
Turn on the device by pressing the ON/OFF button.
The device performs an autodiagnostic test by turning all leds on for about one second accompanied by 3 short sounds..
After this test, the device automatically starts the ventilation in controlled mode, in accordance with the previously set parameters. If this
does not happen, refer to the table “TROUBLESHOOTING”.
Adjust the breathing frequency.
Adjust the minute volume.
Carry out functional test of the overpressure valve in this way:
Close with the palm of one hand the patient outlet and turn the pressure limiting knob. Verify that the value indicated on the gauge is the
same set with the knob. The checks must be done on all the adjustment scale.
If the values are not the same or outside the tolerances, put the device out of service and contact the manufacturer or service center.
Carry out functional test of the alarm systems as described in paragraph
12.2.6
