Alarms. The operator can adjust the device alarms; they can
be set individually or automatically using the Auto button
shown in the Alarms window (refer to Chapter 10, Responding
to alarms). You can switch OFF some alarms. Other alarms are
considered critical and you cannot switch these alarms OFF.
This restriction helps ensures the patient’s safety.
User interface. The device uses a combination of a 15 inch
(38 cm) touch screen display with a separate press-and-turn
knob and key buttons. The key buttons (referred to as ‘keys’),
when activated are a momentary backlit push buttons. Each
element of the user interface is designed for ease of operation
and offers ergonomic benefits.
Configuration. The language, ventilation philosophy, alarms,
default patient group, default mode and settings (for each
patient group individually) and options and default graphics
layout (for each patient group individually) can be preselected
in the configuration mode.
Power. The device is normally powered from AC mains, offer-
ing a voltage range of 100 to 240 Volt AC, 50/60 Hz. In the
event of an AC power failure, the ventilator power source
automatically switches to backup battery. A single optional,
hot-swappable extended battery pack can power the device
for a minimum of 1 hour, so multiple packs permit operation
for a longer period. If the extended battery pack is not installed
or is depleted, the internal battery provides power for a mini-
mum of 1 hour.
Mounting. Variations for mounting the device include:
• Trolley-mount version with space for a VENTILAIR II
medical air compressor
• Version suitable for shelf or pendant
The Ventilation Cockpit is detachable and can be attached to
the top, front, or side of the ventilation unit, or the device can
be installed on a hospital rail system.
Nebulization function. The ventilator offers pneumatic and
micropump nebulization (using Aerogen® technology). The
nebulization function allows the device to power an Aeroneb®
nebulizer or a pneumatic nebulizer connected to the pneu-
matic nebulizer outlet.
