Troubleshooting Bleed Resistor Calibration Failures
The Calibration will fail if the:
• Flow is greater than 50 l/min before the following pressure is reached:
• 95 cmH
2
O for System Software 4.X or greater
• 105 cmH
2
O for System Software 3.X
• Table created has a pressure or flow that is greater than or equal to the next
flow or pressure point in the table.
Possible causes for calibration failure:
• Check Altitude and Drive Gas selection.
• Leaks around the test plugs.
• Drive gas regulator not adjusted / stable – Check regulator calibration.
• Inspiratory Valve Calibration not complete – Perform Calibration.
• Insp Flow Valve not closing completely (leaky) – Replace Insp Flow Valve.
