Assembly and preparation
1. Connect one end of the sample line to the water trap (1).
2. Connect the other end of the sample line to a suitable port (2), e.g., on a filter,
HME, Y-piece, tube adapter, or hose adapter (see "Permissible hose
configurations", page 87).
3. Ensure the following:
– Ensure the correct course of the sample line.
– Particularly when ventilating pediatric patients and neonates, a sample line
connection close to the patient can improve the quality of the measured CO
2
values. Observe the following information: "CO
2 measurement with pediatric
patients and neonates", page 321.
– Particularly when ventilating pediatric patients and neonates, ensure a small
volume (dead space) (e.g., for HMEs or for tube adapters for connecting the
sample line).
