Included in the kits are the following parts: Filter(s), MAX/DARV Pressure Line, PEEP Pressure Line and
Flush Line if it has the flow sensor. Additionally, it is recommended that the Battery be replaced every two
years. If the small, clear tubing off the regulator shows any contamination or discoloration inside, then the
Crossvent should be thoroughly inspected for contamination throughout all its pneumatic components and
pathways. This may indicate a contaminated gas source and this should be investigated and rectified before
placing the ventilator back in service. Minimally, in addition to the PM Kit, the Flow Valve, MAX Pressure
Valve, and PEEP Pressure Valve should be replaced under these circumstances. A slightly cloudy look to the
large clear tube from the regulator to the flow valve may be normal for this tubing material. The small, clear
tubes should be clear, however.
For instructions on replacing these parts, refer to the Disassembly & Reassembly Section later in this
manual.
