Section 5 - Operation
Oxygen Monitoring
Calibrating the
Oxygen Sensor
To calibrate the oxygen sensor correctly, make sure it is exposed only to
room air during the entire calibration period. You should calibrate the
oxygen sensor as part of the daily preoperative setup of the anesthesia
equipment.
1. Remove the sensor assembly from the inspiratory valve dome and
close off the dome with the inspiratory valve dome plug. (Do not
disassemble the sensor assembly further.)

2. Expose the sensor to ambient air only (21% oxygen concentration)
and allow it to stabilize for several minutes. To ensure an ambient
air exposure, hold the sensor away from any open part of the
breathing system.
