Dräger Atlan A100 User Manual

88 Instructions for use | Atlan A100 (XL), A300 (XL), A350 (XL) SW 2.1n
Assembly and preparation
If a filter is used on the inspiratory port and a very low fresh-gas flow has been
set, increased condensate will form in the filter and in the inspiratory flow sensor.
This can lead to incorrect flow measurement or to flow measurement failure. If a
filter is used on the inspiratory port, Dräger recommends a fresh-gas flow of at least
1L/min.
4.8.3 Breathing bag
The breathing bag can be mounted either on the breathing bag arm or, using the
bag elbow and a breathing hose, mounted directly on the breathing system.
4.8.3.1 Attaching the breathing bag
WARNING
Risk due to reversed connection of the breathing hoses
If an adapter is used to connect the breathing bag hose to the bag elbow, the
breathing bag hose and breathing hoses can be mixed up when connected to the
breathing system. As a result, the patient could be put at risk.
► Do not use an adapter to connect the breathing bag hose.
