, Air or N
2
O gas supply pressure falls
below approx. 250 kPa (2.5 bar, 26 Psi), that
particular gas supply is switched off and the
'Gas supply: Low' alarm is triggered. Gas
delivery subsequently switches according to
the table below. Supply of the missing gas
automatically resumes when the supply
pressure of that gas rises above approx. 280
kPa (2.8 bar, 40 Psi). Following this, the
system reverts to delivering gas according to
the configurations prior to the loss of gas
supply.
