Warning
During steps 6 to 7, keep the linkage system in working condition:
Adjust only the test controls (Air in step 6 and O2 in step 7)
Adjust the flow in sequence (Air first and then O2)
The O2 sensor used in steps 6 and 7 must be calibrated correctly
6 Test the flow increase of the linkage system; it shall:
 Turn the Air and O2 flow controls clockwise and all the way (minimum flow)
 Turn the Air flow control slowly in the counterclockwise direction
 Make sure the O2 flow is increasing. The measured O2 concentration must be ≥25%
during the entire process
7 Test the flow increase of the linkage system; it shall:
 Set the Air flow to 9.0 L/min
 The O2 flow is set to 3 L/min or greater
 Turn slowly clockwise to O
2
flow control
 Ensure that the Air flow is decreasing. The measured O2 concentration must be ≥25%
during the entire process
8 Adjust the full flow rate of all gases to ensure that the float of the flow tube moves freely
9 Disconnect the O2 pipe supply
10 Make sure:
 Whistle alarm occurs when O2 supply pressure is low.
 Stop airflow Air and O2. The O2 flow finally stops.
11 Turn all flow controls clockwise and all the way to (minimum flow)
12 Connect the O2 pipe supply again.
13 Turn off the power switch.
