Connecting the Pedi-lite and D-lite sensors
Use the Pedi-lite sensor for patients with tidal volumes up
to, and including 200 ml.
Use the D-lite
™
sensor for patients with tidal volumes
greater than 200 ml.
To ensure patient safety, make sure that the gas
sampling connectors are connected as described in
these instructions and are not interchanged with
connectors on other equipment.
The D-lite and Pedi-lite sensors have a port to provide gas samples
to the airway module. Both sensors are available as reusable
(yellow) or disposable (clear).
Place all D-lite ports upwards with a 25 to 35° tilt to prevent
condensed water from entering the sensor interior and the tubings.
Use manufacturer approved gas sampling lines (PVC/ PE) when
anesthetic agents are used.
1. Connect the spirometry tubes from the Pedi-lite or D-lite sensor
to the airway module.
2. Connect the gas sampling line from the Pedi-lite or D-lite sensor
to the D-fend Pro water trap on the airway module.
