26.4 10mm Patient Circuit, SLE Part Nº N5188/02 & N5188/02/850
Temperature port at ET Manifold. This non-sterile circuit is for single patient
use only. It is designed for use in combination with a Servo controlled humidifier.
The SLE N5188/02 circuit has a flying lead heater wire connector.
The SLE N5188/02/850 circuit has a clover leaf heater wire connector.
It is recommended that a high quality bacteria filter (SLE part No. N2029) is fitted
at the fresh gas connection to the humidifier inlet, however the circuit may be
used without. Connect the patient circuit as shown in the diagram and described
below. Drain water trap regularly by removing the bottom cup. (Circuit pressure is
not lost when cup is removed).
1. Humidifier Supply Line
If a bacteria filter is being used, fit the very short piece of transparent tube to the
ventilator outlet marked “Fresh Gas to Patient”. Fit the bacteria filter into this tube
(Make sure the arrow points towards the patient). Take the loose length of blue
tubing and connect the small end of this to the bacteria filter and the larger end to
the humidifier inlet. If a bacteria filter is not being used, connect the loose length
of blue tube directly between the “Fresh Gas to Patient” ventilator outlet and the
humidifier inlet.
2. Inspiratory Supply Line
Take the main patient circuit and fit the blue tube with the large connector to the
humidifier outlet. Plug the electrical connector into the humidifier heated wire
supply.
3. Expiratory Supply Line
Take the clear tube with the large connector and fit to the exhalation port of the
ventilator. Position water trap in an upright position at the lowest point in the
circuit limb.
4. Proximal Airway Pressure Line
Connect the small diameter clear tube from the patient circuit to the proximal
airway port on the ventilator.
5. Temperature Monitoring
Two ports are provided for dual temperature probes, one in the connector on the
humidifier outlet (next to the heated wire inlet) and a second port in the blue tube
close to the ET connector.
