MAGNAMED Ventilator Analyzer - VentMeter P/N: 1901509 – Rev 05
The VentMeter Gas Flow Analyzer is a device designed to carry out lung ventilator
evaluation. The measured parameters are: Flow, Volume, Pressure, Times, Frequency,
Compliance, and Resistance, among others. For these measurements, the analyzer
counts with a flow sensor and transducer set extremely precise that grants measurement
precision.
This analyzer coupled to lung ventilator under test and a lung simulator allows its complete
characterization.
Basic Characteristics:
• AC Input 100 ~ 240 V
AC
– 50 ~ 60 Hz;
• Internal battery with intelligent charger;
• Graphic LCD display to show monitored parameters and pressure curve, flow
curve and volume curve;
• FiO

monitor, maximum pressure, mean pressure and PEEP/CPAP pressure,
respiration frequency (rate) and I:E ratio;
• Key to navigate among many available screens;
• Key to select the monitored parameters to be visualized;
• Allows – serial communication to a PC for registering results.
• PulmoTrend Software – to register data and best visualization.
Warning
• This symbol indicates to read the instruction manual to get more information.
• This equipment should be used exclusively to evaluate lung ventilators performance. It
should not be used to monitor patient ventilation in Intensive Care Units.
• This manual should be completely read, to safely and correct use of the equipment and to
get maximum performance.
• Disconnect the equipment from electrical power source before cleaning.
• Do not expose this equipment to liquids to avoid electrical shock hazards. Do not use the
equipment if the internal components were being exposed to liquids.
Caution
• The Ventilator Analyzer don’t emit electromagnetically waves that interfere in the functioning
of the equipment’s in its proximity.
• The Ventilator Analyzer should be CALIBRATED yearly. All the maintenance service
procedure should be done by trained personnel only.
• Use only parts, pieces, cables and sensors specified and acquired from MAGNAMED. Part
Number in chapter 12.
• Turn on the equipment and proceed to the verification and basic adjustments – follow the
instructions;
• Wait at least 30 minutes to get temperature stabilization in order to have stable pressure and
flow readings.
• Observe the correct connection of the flow sensor and verify that no obstruction is present
inside the sensor.
• Do not expose the equipment to extreme temperatures. To get correct measurements be sure
that the ambient temperature is between 18 and 40 ºC during its use.
• Do not use the equipment if any problem cannot be solved.
