5.3 Adjust Drive Gas Regulator
The drive gas regulator must be adjusted while maintaining a flow of
15 l/min. To adjust the flow, you must set the system to the Install/Service
mode and use the PC based Service Application to control flow through the
regulator.
The drive gas regulator should provide a constant gas input pressure of
172 kPa (25 psi).
Calibration setup
1. Attach a pressure test device to the regulator pressure port (shown below)
• Remove the 6.35-mm (1/4 inch) plug.
• Attach test device to the open port.
2. Remove the ABS breathing system from the machine to allow continuous
Insp Valve flow through the exhalation valve.
3. Access the Ventilation Schematic (Section 12.3.3) of the Service
Application.
4. Set Gas Inlet Valve to On.
5. Adjust the Insp Flow Valve counts until the inspiratory flow value on the
schematic reads approximately 15 l/min.
6. If required, adjust the regulator to 172 ±1.72 kPa (25 ±0.25 psi) through
the access hole in the Vent Engine cover (Section 9.13.1).
