Changing parts
Refer to page 83 onwards for a schematic overview and
description of methods for cleaning and disinfection.
Maintenance intervals: page 106.
● Machine in »standby« mode –
● Vapor: control dial set to »0« = Off.
The T-piece and filter are not required when using a
Y-piece with Luer lock.
After treating an infectious patient
the entire machine must be cleaned, disinfected and
sterilized.
Note hygiene regulations –
risk of infection!
After treating a non-infectious patient
the following parts must be replaced before continuing
with the next patient:
● Tube or mask
● Y-piece
● Both breathing hoses
● Temperature sensor and cable if applicable
1 T-piece of the measured gas hose and filter, if used
(disposable articles, household refuse)
2 Drain:
Insert an empty syringe without cannula, at least
20 mL, into the connector.
● Extract the water, remove syringe and dispose of the
full syringe as ordinary domestic waste.
● Push water trap back into holder – until it tangibly
engages.
An overfull container or a faulty water trap could
lead to failure in sidestream measurement.
The following must also be changed when working
without microbial filter:
3 O2 sensor with connecting lead, if used.
4 Flow sensor.
Disconnect lead from flow sensor, it remains on the
machine.
● Breathing bag with hose
● Breathing system:
Disconnect fresh gas hose, it remains on the machine.
● Pressure measuring hose and filter: must be replaced.
Hose connector remains on the machine.
● Soda lime container – turn anticlockwise and pull
down – must be replaced.
● Anaesthetic gas scavenging hose – release (latch in
front of connector) and pull off, also at the central
supply point.
