Warnings and Cautions
Medcal as Supples
1 There s a rsk of fre or exploson Make sure that no ol,
grease or other flammable lubrcant or sealant s used
on any part of the machne n close proxmty to medcal
gas dstrbuton components
2 Attachng or removng a medcal gas cylnder
a) Follow approprate manual handlng gudelnes when
lftng
b) Ensure that the machne yoke and cylnder faces are
dust free and clean, and that the sealng washer s
n poston between the cylnder valve and the yoke
Refer to secton 562
c) Tghten the yoke securely before openng the cylnder
valve
Dust and drt presents a fre hazard n the presence of
hgh pressure gas Leakage of hgh pressure gas can
cause serous nury
3 Auxlary gas outlets Flow rates greater than 60 L/mn
could affect the fresh gas flow to the patent
4 The gas supply falure systems wthn the anaesthetc
machne wll not necessarly operate as ndcated n ths
manual durng any procedures that are outsde the scope
of the ndcatons for use of the machne
a) Machne set to delver Ar only
When the machne s operated wth an Ar flow only,
note that there may stll be retaned oxygen n the
system, and that the oxygen supply vsual ndcator
wll contnue to ndcate green, even though oxygen s
not beng delvered
b) Machne set to delver Oxygen only through Auxlary
Outlets
The oxygen falure alarm s desgned to operate
durng normal use of the machne, e when
provdng controlled concentratons and flows of
gases to a patent breathng system
c) Do not use the machne solely to provde large flows
of oxygen, va the anaesthetc machne auxlary
outlets, to external devces whch may not be
equpped wth a supply falure alarm
Anaesthetc gas scavengng system
1 The anaesthesa system must be connected to an
anaesthetc gas scavengng system (ASS) to dspose
of waste gas and prevent possble health hazards to
operatng room staff
Ths requrement must be observed durng test
procedures as well as durng use wth a patent
2 Anaesthesa apparatus must be connected to an
anaesthetc gas scavengng system (ASS) to dspose
of waste gas and prevent possble health hazards to
operatng room staff Ths requrement must be observed
durng test procedures as well as durng use wth a
patent
The scavengng transfer and recever system must
conform to ISO 80601-2-13
Any problem arsng from an mproperly functonng
scavengng system s solely the user’s responsblty
Do not use a scavengng system that restrcts drve gas
flow when negatve pressure s exerted on t
Vaporzers
1 The Prma 460 machne must only be used wth a
vaporzer that comples wth BS EN ISO 80601-2-13
In addton, the vaporzer must be a Selectatec-
compatble type vaporzer, nstalled on the Selectatec-
type backbar system
2 Free-standng vaporzers may be accdentally tpped,
resultng n excessve and uncalbrated volumes of
anaesthetc drug enterng the breathng system
Do not nstall or connect a vaporzers between the
ommon as Outlet (O) and the breathng system
unless they are specfcally desgned for such use If
ths s done, the oxygen flush flow wll pass through the
vaporzer and may result n gross overdosage when the
flush valve s operated
3 Only vaporzers wth the Selectatec compatble nterlock
functon wll nterlock f nstalled on a two staton
manfold
The nstallaton of non-nterlock vaporzers allows the
possble operaton of more than one vaporzer at the
same tme
Breathng System
1 The breathng system whch conveys gases from the
anaesthetc machne to the patent, and dsposes of
expred gases, s a vtal part of the anaesthetc delvery
system
2 When mechancal ventlaton s employed the patent
breathng system must be connected drectly to a
pressure relef valve to prevent the possblty of
barotrauma
3 Do not use conductve breathng system hoses
The use of antstatc or electrcally conductve breathng
hoses s not recommended when usng hgh frequency
electrcal surgery equpment Burns may be caused
4 Do not touch any electrcal devce cable or connector at
the same tme as the patent
5 The breathng system must conform to the requrements
of ISO80601-2-13
Because breathng systems requre frequent cleanng
and dsnfecton they are not a permanent part of
the anaesthetc ventlator and therefore cannot be
drectly under the control of the anaesthetc ventlator
manufacturer However, we strongly recommend that
only breathng systems whch have been approved
and authorsed by the manufacturer for use wth the
ventlator should be employed
6 When the anaesthetc machne s connected to a patent,
t s recommended that a qualfed practtoner s n
attendance at all tmes to react to an alarm or other
ndcaton of a problem
7 Patent oxygen concentraton must be montored
contnuously
