High Pressure Limit
Use the High Pressure Limit to establish the maximum pressure permitted the patient circuit. When
this limit is reached:
• A HIGH PRES alarm is displayed
• The audible alarm is sounded
• Inspiration is terminated and exhalation begins
The turbine is stopped to allow the circuit pressure to evacuate when the high pressure condition
persists for more than four times the set inspiratory time or more than 3.0 seconds, whichever is less.
To set the High Pressure Limit:
1) Push the High Pressure Limit button.
2) Change the setting using the Set Value knob.
