1.2.1.1 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 controlled
during the entire respiratory cycle.
Mains power supply
failure
Uninterruptible power supply provided by internal battery
– Device runtime in battery operation see Instruction for Use
– Automatic deactivation of the breathing system warmer to
increase battery runtime
Mains power supply
failure and battery dis-
charged
– Manual ventilation and spontaneous breathing are available
– Emergency O
2 delivery (electronically controlled gas mixer)
– Fresh-gas delivery (mechanically controlled gas mixer)
– 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, mea-
surement accuracies, and when triggering mandatory
breaths are possible.
Failure of fresh-gas
delivery (electroni-
cally controlled mixer
only)
– Emergency O
2 delivery
see Instruction for Use
– Anesthetic agent delivery from connected vaporizers possi-
ble
– 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 possi-
ble
Alternatively:
– Backup manual mode
Screen fault (screen
does not respond to
operation or has
failed)
If backup manual mode is activated:
– Manual ventilation or spontaneous breathing possible
– Emergency O
2 delivery (electronically controlled gas mixer)
or fresh-gas delivery (mechanically controlled gas mixer)
available
– Anesthetic agent delivery from connected vaporizers possi-
ble
