B- PACKING FOR SHIPMENT
In the event the CROSSVENT must be returned to the factory, it is very important to pack the unit properly. The following
is the correct packing procedure to insure safe transport:
Packing Materials Required:
Double Wall Carton
Suitable Shock Absorber - Foam or Air Bubble Wrap
Poly Bag
For the safety of all concerned, please thoroughly clean and disinfect the unit prior to packing. If the unit is being returned
for service, please include all information relative to its need for service as well as the name and phone number of the person
we may contact regarding return.
If the unit you are returning is one that you received for evaluation, then all the accessories that came with the unit must also
be returned as outlined here.
Procedure:
1. Cover CROSSVENT with the poly bag and secure with twist tie or tape.
2. Wrap the CROSSVENT in the foam or bubble wrap, with at least 2 inches of material on all sides, and place it into
the carton.
3. Wrap oxygen sensor and any other adapters with bubble wrap (if returned).
4. Thoroughly wrap the plug-in power supply and power cord with bubble wrap and place it into the carton, making
certain that it cannot damage the CROSSVENT while in transit.
5. Place the gas supply hose, if returned, between the rear of the CROSSVENT and the carton wall.
6. Place the patient circuits, pneumotachs and instruction manual in an orderly fashion into the remaining space (if
returned).
7. Fill the carton on all sides with packing material to prevent the unit from shifting during transit.
8. Close the carton with tape, noting serial number on the outside of the carton.
