3 Method of Operation
3.1 Control Dial
The control dial is used to set the output concentration of the anesthetic agent. The control dial is
marked with output concentration of the anesthetic agent from the vaporizer. The graduation to which
the dial is turned indicates the output concentration.
The “0” button on the vaporizer has locking function. Press this button first before turning the control
dial.
If the vapour is stored in high temperature and then used, the concentration of the delivered anesthetic
agent may be high. To enable pressure equalization, always turn the control dial to 1% after connecting
the anesthetic workstation, and wait for at least 15 seconds.
3.2 Connecting and Interlock System
When the anesthetic delivery system is connected to multiple vaporizers, the interlock systems of the
vaporizers ensure that only one vaporizer can be switched on at any one time while the others are
switched off and blocked.
