6.3.6.3 Common Failures and Recommended Actions 
Failure 
Description 
Possible Cause  Recommended Action 
Display E  A zero point error occurs in the PEEP 
sensor. 
1.  Calibrate the sensor.   
2.  Replace the VCM.   
Display F  The pressure change is nonlinear. 
The larger the expiratory valve 
sealing current, the smaller the 
pressure.   
1.  Check for leakage. 
2.  Replace the drive gas assembly. 
Display 10  The expiratory valve is nonlinear. 
The larger the expiratory valve 
sealing current, the smaller the 
sampling current.     
Replace the drive gas assembly. 
The drive gas pressure is low.    1.  Replace or connect a gas supply to 
keep the gas supply pressure within 
280–600 kPa (40 psi–87 psi). 
2.  If the gas supply is normal, check the 
gas supply pressure switch.
