Gas flow to the analyzers during gas calibration with open calibration gas valve:
When the calibration valve is opened,
the pressure reducer provides calibration gas coming from the calibration gas bottle
through the calibration gas connection tube
through the Cal-gas-in-socket
to the calibration gas valve
into the T-piece
through the second end of the T-piece and the Cal-gas-out-socket into the room air
The suction pump sucks the gas sample (calibration gas)
from the third end of the T-piece
through the calibration gas socket on the front of the PowerCube
through the gas drying tube / patient tube
through both gas analyzers (O2, CO2)
through the compensation vessel
The gas sample leaves the PowerCube through the pump and the sound absorber
