reservoir nipple and connect it to a pressure meter. Reinstate the controller to
the upright position. Turn the controller power switch ON and read the
pressure output.
Controller test method
For controllers with version 16 software the compressor output pressure can
be tested directly on the controller using a Standard test load (1 litre)
connected to the patient right channel.
Turn the controller power switch ON and during the 5 second countdown
press the patient right "-" button twice in quick succession to start the test. A
60-second countdown is displayed in the top left of the LCD and a flashing "P"
in the top right. When the countdown is complete the controller will impulse
once from the patient right channel into the test load. The compressor output
pressure is displayed in the top right of the LCD for 20 seconds, or until any
button is pressed, after which the controller will revert to normal operation.
If the compressor output pressure is less than 16 psi then the compressor
should be replaced with a new item, or removed from the controller and
returned to the Kendall Service Center for a compressor exchange,
alternatively the complete controller can be returned to Kendall for repair.
If required, the compressor may be serviced in-situ as follows.
Compressor Overhaul
Reference should be made to the Recommended Service Schedule table for
guidance into compressor component replacement intervals.
The compressor specification is subject to a policy of continuous
improvement and in accordance with this policy particular parts are available
as upgrade items. This procedure is sequentially structured and assumes that
latest upgrade parts are used throughout.
ENSURE THAT THE CONTROLLER IS NOT CONNECTED TO LINE
VOLTAGE.
Air filter replacement
Undo the center screw at the top end of the compressor, and remove the
plate. Lift out the
air filter element
and discard. Wipe clean the air filter
recess and replace the air filter element. Apply one drop of Loctite 242 to the
screw thread. Replace the plate and screw down securely.
Compressor disassembly
Without putting stress on the rubber mounting feet, unscrew the four screws
securing the cylinder head using a Phillips #2 screwdriver. Carefully pull the
cylinder head and front cover gasket away from the compressor body.
Remove the
front cylinder housing
.
Loosen the screw holding the exhaust valve in place on the front cylinder
housing, and rotate the valve to one side. Use an Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA)
swab to carefully wipe the cylinder housing and the rubber seal in the exhaust
