CALIBRATION PROCEDURES
The purpose of these procedures is to provide instructions and
acceptance/rejection criteria to calibrate the e360 Ventilator.
This section describes how to use the e360 Ventilator’s Diagnostic
Mode to calibrate the e360 ventilator. The Diagnostic Mode can
also be used for troubleshooting (see Section 3 for more
information on troubleshooting).
WARNING An authorized Newport Medical Instruments factory-
trained service technician must perform all service and repairs
on the e360 Ventilator.
WARNING Hazardous voltages are present inside the e360
ventilator. Disconnect electrical power, air, and oxygen sources
before attempting any disassembly. Failure to do so could
result in injury to service personnel or damage to equipment.
NOTE: To prevent damage from ESD and possible failure of the
e360 ventilator, ALWAYS use standard anti-static practices when
working inside the e360 ventilator, handling circuit boards or
handling any other electronic components.
Calibration Equipment
Verify that all test equipment is in current calibration status. To
calibrate the e360 Ventilator you will need the following:
• NMI Reusable Breathing Circuit (PBC340A) or equivalent
• Cap to plug the end of the breathing circuit (CAP100P) or
equivalent
• Clean, dry regulated medical air and oxygen supplies at 50
±2 psig.
NOTE: To perform the calibration procedures correctly, the gas
supply pressure must be regulated to 50 ±2 psig. The gas supplies
can support a minimum constant flow of 180L/min.
• Power Source of 100 – 240VAC, 50/60 Hz.
•
High Pressure Gauge for reading from 0 – 60 psig, or
equivalent.
•
Low Pressure Gauge for reading from 0 – 200 cmH
2
O, or
equivalent.
•
Calibrated pressure syringe; NMI tool (T
OL1952P) or
equivalent.
