Operation
Using the O2 flush has the following effects:
In manual ventilation, pressing the O
2 flush results in a rapid rise in pressure
to the APL level.
In mechanical ventilation, permanently pressing the O
2 flush may result in a
slight rise of the PEEP level. However, this rise has no effect on the peak
pressure.
8.3.3 Using the vaporizer
Operate the vaporizer according to its instructions for use.
8.3.4 Flow correction
The gas composition can affect the measurement accuracy of the flow
measurement.
On devices equipped with an integrated patient-gas measurement module, the flow
measurement is corrected automatically.
On devices equipped with inspiratory O
2 measurement, the accuracy of the flow
measurement can be ensured by manual or automatic flow correction.
Prerequisites for automatic flow correction on devices equipped with inspiratory O
2
measurement:
The anesthetic gas monitor (Dräger Vamos or Dräger Scio) is connected to the
COM 2 serial port.
The COM 2 serial port is activated in the system setup, see the table on

CAUTION
Risk of inaccurate measured flow values
If the flow is not set correctly, the resulting incorrect measured flow values can lead
to incorrect measured values for the tidal volume.
Make the settings for the flow correction carefully.
