WARNING !
Note arrows for inspiratory and expiratory
connector on ventilator ports. If circuit ends
are confused, humidification will not be
effective.
WARNING !
In order to avoid any risk of electric shock in
the event of faulty grounding of patient moni-
toring equipment, do not use antistatic or
electrically conductive patient circuits
WARNING !
Dräger cannot warrant or endorse the safe
performance of third party ventilator circuits
for use with the Babylog 8000 plus infant
ventilator. Increased pneumatic resistance
caused by some circuit systems may result in
inaccurate airway pressure readings.
Only use circuits with an inner diameter of at
least 10 mm (0.4 inch)
We recommend contacting the manufacturers
/distributors of infant patient circuits
regarding compliance of their products with
the requested performance characteristics
(see p. 32).
WARNING !
Dräger cannot warrant or endorse the safe
performance of third party humidifiers for use
with the Babylog 8000 plus infant ventilator.
Specifically, combinations of humidifiers not
intended for use with infant patients bear risks
of delivering breathing gas not maintained at a
proper temperature.
Excessive rainout in the inspiratory line of the
breathing circuit may disable the flow and
volume measuring capabilities of the Babylog
8000 plus ventilator.
Increased pneumatic resistance and compli-
ance in the inspiratory line caused by
a humidifier may result in inaccurate airway
pressure readings.
We recommend contacting the manufacturers
/distributors of heated humidifying devices
about compliance of their products with the
requested performance characteristics.
Precautions During Preparation
WARNING !
To maintain grounding integrity, connect only
to a "hospital grade" receptacle. Always
disconnect supply before servicing.
WARNING !
Always provide adequate ventilation!
When the equipment is being operated with
O2, ensure that the ambient concentration
does not exceed 24% O2. Otherwise, the risk
of fire may be increased.
WARNING !
Always use medical grade oxygen and air that
is dry and free from dust and oil. Contami-
nated gas may cause ventilator malfunction.
WARNING !
Treatment of batteries and O2-sensor
capsules:
Do not throw into fire! Risk of explosion.
Do not force open! Danger of bodily injury.
Follow all local, state, and federal regulations
with respect to environmental protection when
disposing of batteries and O2-sensor
capsules.
WARNING !
Always install expiratory valve that has been
cleaned and disinfected.
