4.1 Introduction
This section provides detailed information required to properly test and calibrate the A5/A3
anesthesia system. Calibration consists of making mechanical and electrical adjustments with the
proper test equipment. The instrument should be tested and calibrated after repairs have been
completed or at regular intervals as part of a periodic maintenance procedure.
NOTE: Both calibration and a functional test must be performed to verify
complete and proper operation.
Ensure that all testing materials, including drive gas, breathing circuits, test fixtures, tools and
documents are available and current, calibrated and in good working order prior to beginning.
