Check P-Pressure and PIP Safety Limits
CAUTION: the limits of the pressure switch-off must be tested using the included test lung
prior to using the Jet ventilator.
1. Connect Jet patient tube to one of the two LUER-LOCK connections on the test lung.
2. Connect pressure sensing line to the second LUER-LOCK connection on the test lung.
3. Set PIP pressure limit to 15 mbar
4. Set PP pressure limit to 20 mbar
5. Use the operating pressure control to set the operating pressure to 1.5 bar.
6. Switch apparatus to automatic mode. To do so press the key labelled
auto/manual
. The LED must
light on
auto
. LED = green
7. Set frequency to 150 CPM. Select inspiration time of 40%.
8. Start Jet ventilation by pressing the
start/stop
key.
9. Use your thumb to close the opening at the side of the test lung. Pressure will build and the appa-
ratus will suspend ventilation once the set pressure limit is reached. The alarm notification "
PIP too
high
" will appear and an audible signal will sound; release test lunch. The apparatus will continue
ventilation and the audible alarm will mute.
10. Disconnect the pressure sensing line from the test lung and repeat test. The apparatus will sus-
pend ventilation. The alarm notification "
PP too high
" will appear and an audible signal will sound.
Once the test lung is released ventilation will continue and the audible alarm will mute.
If using a Double Jet the second Jet must be tested by repeating steps 1 through 10.
