2-2 Efficia Rack and Modules Service and Repair Guide
Routine Safety and Operational Checks
Philips recommends that you regularly:
• Visually inspect the rack/module exterior for damage.
• Ensure the vents are free of dust. Visually inspect the fan operation and clean the
dust buildup in the GAS module.
• Inspect the labels for legibility.
If the labels are not legible, you must replace the case where the label is on. If the
serial number label is not legible, you must return the rack/module for label
replacement. For detailed information, see “Visual Test” on page 4-7.
Philips recommends that you perform certain test and verification checks at least once
a year and after each repair. For complete information about performing verification
testing and checks, see Chapter 4, “Performance Verification Testing”.
Check of Water Trap and Water Trap Holder
To check the water trap and water trap holder,
Step
1
Check the water trap on the water trap holder for damage (cracks, etc.).
Replace the water trap, if damaged.
Note:
The water trap must be replaced every four weeks at the latest, even if
undamaged due to hygienic aspects.
2
Check the water trap holder for damage. Carefully check the rubber O-
rings located on the grommets of the water trap holder for visible damage.
If damaged, replace the water trap holder. After the replacement perform a
leakage test of the pneumatics.
3
Check the sample line for kinks or ruptures. Replace it, if damaged.
Note the sample line must be replaced with each new patient, even if
undamaged.
