OPERATOR’S MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR
EDITION/REVISION B/0
4.5.2.2 BABY MODE
Baby Mode is one temperature control method which means the controller will control the
incubator temperature automatically to keep the baby temperature close to set temperature.
There are two skin sensors equipped in the device, one is skin sensor 1 and the other is skin
sensor 2. Between which skin sensor1 works as the temperature controlling sensor, which makes
the controller controls the temperature according to its detected temperature; skin sensor 2 is for
the clinical requirement which used for the assistant observation for the infant temperature (the
detailed observation method for skin sensor 2 please refer to the section 4.3). The probe of Skin
temperature sensor 1 required closely attached to the skin of patient, and the information from
probe is passed to the heater control circuit to control the heat for keeping the set baby
temperature. The isolated temperature sensor as backup can control the maximum incubator
temperature. If the temperature is over high, and the heat protective deice will active, and the
heater is cut off.
When the incubator is working, if need changing the set temperature (decrease or increase),
press the Keypad Lock key, choose the Baby Mode key to adjust the set temperature through
pressing Up and Down Key. Set ＞37℃ Override Mode, you need to press the Up key until the
baby temperature indicates 37 , press ℃ ＞ 37 key℃ , and the device will enter into the
temperature override mode, and ＞37 indicator is on, press ℃ Up key to set . After chose the
proper temperature, press Keypad Lock key to enter into the control mode, or without pressing
any key for 10s, and the controller will enter into the control mode automatically. Set
Temperature indicator displays the set temperature, and Air Temperature indicator displays the
air temperature, and Skin Temperature indicator displays the baby temperature tested by skin
temperature sensor1.
For seting the appropriate temperature and correctly control the baby temperature of the
infant, the incubator hold the following functions:
When the temperature detected by the skin temperature sensor 1 is always below the set
temperature for more than 2℃, the incubator will rise the air temperature in the incubator in the
speed of 1℃ per hour to enable the slowly rising of the infant’s temperature and avoids the
damage bringed by the rapid rising of the temperature as well. If the baby temperature detected is
always 2℃below the set temperature in 1 hour, “Skin Sensor 1 Position“ alarm will be actived
by system. At that time, the incubator still rise the air temperature in the hood slowly until the air
temperature reaches the STEADY TEMPERATURE CONDITION which its temperature is equal
to “ set skin temperatur -4℃”. For example, in Baby Mode, if the set temperature is 36.5℃, finally
the air temperature in the incubator will reach the STEADY TEMPERATURE CONDITION
which its temperature is 32.5℃.
For avoiding the incubator unnecessarily decreases its temperature for the reason of infant
pyrexia or something else, the incubator holds the following functions:
If the baby skin temperature surpasses the set temperature for less than 0.5℃, the air
temperature in the incubator will not lower 5℃ than the baby skin temperature. If the baby skin
temperature surpasses the set temperature for over than 0.5℃, the air temperature in the
incubator will not below 25℃.
