Overview
3.2.12.3 Overview
The following table gives an overview of the integrated safety functions which come
into effect if problems occur during operation:
Fault Safety function
Leakage Pressure regulation and PEEP compensation
– In mechanical ventilation modes, the set PEEP is
actively adjusted even in the case of small leaks.
– In pressure-controlled modes, the pressure is con-
trolled during the entire respiratory cycle.
Mains power supply
failure
Uninterruptible power supply provided by internal battery
– Device runtime in battery operation (see "Technical
data", page 272)
– Automatic deactivation of the breathing system warmer
to increase battery runtime
Mains power supply
failure and battery
discharged
– Manual ventilation and spontaneous breathing are
available
– Emergency O
2 delivery (electronically controlled gas
mixer)
– Fresh-gas delivery (mechanically controlled gas mix-
ers)
– Delivery of anesthetic agents via connected vaporizers
Failure of the central
gas supply system
– Use of the connected gas cylinders
Complete failure of
the gas supply
– Mechanical ventilation with ambient air possible (the
hose with the breathing bag will have to be removed for
this)
– No anesthetic agent delivery from the connected
vaporizers possible; switch to intravenous anesthetic
agent required
Flow measurement
failure
– Mechanical ventilation can be continued.
– Restrictions with regard to displayed measured values,
measurement accuracies, and when triggering manda-
tory breaths are possible.
Failure of fresh-gas
delivery (electroni-
cally controlled gas
mixer only)
– Emergency O
2 delivery (see "Emergency O2 delivery
(electronically controlled gas mixer)", page 50)
– Anesthetic agent delivery from connected vaporizers
possible
– All ventilation modes are available.
Alternatively:
– Backup manual mode
Ventilator failure – Manual ventilation or spontaneous breathing possible
– Fresh-gas delivery available
– Anesthetic agent delivery from connected vaporizers
possible
Alternatively:
– Backup manual mode
