15. Extended storage
If the ventilator is not going to be used for a period in excess of 40 days then the
following protocol has to be followed.
The batteries will require charging prior to disconnection for 24 hours. This is
required to protect the batteries against damage due to deep discharge.
1. Remove the five fixing screws (A)
from the rear cover.
2. Slide the rear cover to reveal the battery fuse holder.
3. Pull out the fuse drawer (D).
4. Remove the fuse from the rear
compartment and place it in the front
compartment (E).
5. Close the fuse drawer (D).
6. Tag the ventilator to record that the
batteries have been disconnected.
On re-commissioning the ventilator reverse the above process and re-charge the
batteries for a further 24 hours.
Note: If the ventilator has been in storage for more than 18 months then
carry out a 10,000 hour overhaul prior to returning the ventilator to service.
