OPTIONAL FEATURES OF THE DEVICE
5.1 Mainstream CO
2
sensor (capnometer)
External module of breathing gas analysis without sampling (hereinafter – mainstream capno-
meter) is optionally delivered with the device and allows to monitor:
• СО
2
concentration at the end (Et
СО
2
) and at the beginning (FiCO
2
) of the exhalation;
• capnogram (PCO
2
).
Capnometer operating principle is based on the method of measuring the infrared light absorb-
tion in the absorption spectrum of carbon dioxide.
Only mainstream CO
2
sensors supplied by Triton Electronic Systems Ltd.
are compatible with ventilator.
The module includes the mainstream CO
2
sensor and ventilation adapters for different types of
patients:
1. Enclosure of the sensor;
2. Ventilation adapter (adult and neonate);
3. Socket for the connection to the ventilator;
4. Cable of the sensor.
Figure 5.1 - Mainstream capnometer
It is not recommended to connect an mainstram capnometer when the de-
vice is switched on.
Connection of the mainstream capnometer:
•
Check the sensor window and ventilation adapter. They must be dry and clean. Clean or re-
place the adapter if necessary.
•
Connect the adapter with СО
2
sensor - combine labels on the adapter and sensor and con-
nect till latching (Figure 5.2).

2
sensor and adapter
• Connect the CO
2
sensor to the connector " CO
2
" port on the front panel (Figure 5.3).
