HIGH FLOW INSUFFLATION UNIT UHI-4
3.4 Connecting the medical gas pipeline adapter
(MAJ-1084/1085)
Using gases other than medical grade CO
2
may result in fire,
poisoning, complications, etc. In addition, oil, impurities, etc.
may penetrate into the interior of the UHI-4 and impede
proper CO
2
insufflation.
• If the medical gas pipeline adapter is damaged, replace it
with a new one.
• Connect the gas supply hose to the UHI-4 before connecting
it to the CO
2
connector. Otherwise, there is a danger of
significant gas leakage.
• Never lubricate the connecting sections of the UHI-4, the
adapter and the medical gas pipeline with grease, oil, etc.
This could result in grease, oil, or other foreign matter
entering the UHI-4, impeding proper operation and
preventing proper insufflation of CO
2
.
• For proper insufflation of the CO
2
, confirm that the pressure
of medical gas pipeline is over 343.2 kPa (3.5 kgf/cm
2
) and
below than the upper limit given in ISO 7396 (1400 kPa).
Use MAJ-1084 for NIST type fittings, and MAJ-1085 for DISS
type fittings. Do not use any other hoses than those
specified.
Olympus does not sell medical gas pipeline hoses. Use an
appropriate hose for the medical gas pipeline being used.
 For EU, Australian and New Zealand market
Medical gas pipeline adapter must be attached to UHI-4 by Olympus personnel
on installation time. Enclosed nut cover will be fixed at the place where cylinder
hose and insufflator are connected by Olympus personnel.
