O2 Cylinder Duration (LTV® 1000 Only)
Use the O
2
Cylinder Duration option to calculate the approximate remaining usable time (in hours and
minutes) of an external O
2
cylinder.
To obtain an accurate duration time estimate, the current cylinder pressure must be entered prior
to each
calculation.
WARNING
O
2
Cylinder Duration Information - The accuracy of the displayed useable amount of oxygen
remaining in an external O
2
cylinder (O2 DUR hh:mm) is dependant on the precision of the pressure
gauge used on the O
2
cylinder and the accuracy of the information provided by the operator in the O2
CYL DUR menu settings. The calculated/displayed useable amount of oxygen information is to be
used for reference purposes only.
Ventilation Variables and O
2
Consumption - Variations in the patient’s minute ventilation, I:E ratio
and/or ventilator setting changes or equipment status (i.e. circuit leaks) affect the consumption rate of
oxygen. When warranted by a patients condition, it is recommended that a back-up cylinder or
alternative source of oxygen be available at all times.
AVERTISSEMENT
Informations sur la durée d'utilisation restante de la bouteille d’oxygène - La précision de
l’affichage de la quantité d’oxygène utilisable restante dans une bouteille d’oxygène externe (O2 DUR
HH:MM) dépend de la précision de la jauge de pression utilisée sur la bouteille et de l'exactitude des
informations fournies par l’opérateur dans les paramètres du menu DUREE CYL O2. Les
informations calculées et affichées sur la quantité d’oxygène utilisable ne doivent être utilisées qu’à
titre indicatif.
Variables de ventilation et consommation d’oxygène — Les variations dans la ventilation par
minute du patient et dans le rapport inspiration/expiration, la modification des paramètres ou l’état du
matériel (fuite dans le circuit, par exemple) modifient le taux de consommation de l’oxygène. Lorsque
la situation du patient le permet, il est recommandé qu'une bouteille d’oxygène de secours ou toute
autre source alternative d’oxygène soit disponible en permanence.
To modify the O
2
Cylinder Duration settings:
1) Push the Select button while O2 CYL DUR is displayed and CYL TYPE is displayed.
2) Push the Select button while CYL TYPE is displayed and SIZE xxx l is displayed.
3) Turn the Set Value knob until the applicable O
2
cylinder size is displayed (volume in compressed
Liters), push the Select button and the cylinder size is set.
Range: 75 - 9,900 compressed Liters, in increments of 1.
This setting is retained by the ventilator (through shut downs and power ups) until re-set by
an operator, and used to calculate the remaining oxygen.
After changing this, or any
ventilation setting, wait approximately 20 seconds before selecting
CALCULATE, to allow the ventilator to monitor the oxygen flow that will be used in the
calculation and display of the remaining usable time of the external O
2
cylinder.
