4. Use the hand bulb to apply exactly 250mmHg to the NIBP module, then press Calibrate.
• A "Success" message will appear if the calibration was successful. Go to step 5.
• If a "Result Failure" message appears, repeat the test by applying 250mmHg to the NIBP module and pressing Calibrate. If the "Result Failure"
message is repetitive, contact Masimo Technical Services. See Contacting Masimo on page 65.
5. After successful Span Point Calibration, press the back button to go back to the CALIBRATION menu screen.
6. Press CALIBRATION TEST
.
7. Press Test.
8. Apply various pressures (0mmHg to 280mmHg) to the NIBP module with the hand bulb.
9. Compare the NIBP module pressure to the manometer pressure:
• If the NIBP module pressure and manometer pressure differ WITHIN the ±3mmHg tolerance, then the NIBP module has PASSED the calibration test and no
further action is required. Go to step 10.
Note: For pass criteria, see the NIBP Module Calibration Test on page 55.
• If the NIBP module pressure and manometer pressure still differ BEYOND the ±3mmHg tolerance, contact Masimo Technical Services. See Contacting
Masimo on page 65.
10. Disconnect the manometer, 500mL bottle or cuff wrapped around solid object, and hand bulb from the NIBP module.
11. Power OFF the manometer.
NIBP Air Leak Test
Note: This section is provided as a reference and intended for authorized service personnel only.
Pass Criteria
International standards for automated NIBP devices require that air leakage within the pneumatic system must not exceed 6mmHg/minute.
Equipment
• Calibrated Manometer*
• Pneumatic "T" Adapters
• 500mL bottle
• Hand Bulb
• Connection Tubing
*Verify the manometer has been calibrated within the last 12 months. Calibration accuracy shall be within ±0.02% to ±0.25% FS (Full Scale) and a measurement uncertainty
of ±1 LSD (Least Significant Digit).
