7. The equipment must be periodically checked and maintained to
ensure proper operation.
8. Performance of the equipment may be affected at temperatures
below 10ºC (50ºF) and above 40ºC (104ºF).
9. The performance of the anesthetic machines and vaporizers may
be degraded if the two are mismatched. Refer to the vaporizer
manufacturer’s instruction manual before use.
10. If the integrated oxygen monitor is not fi tted, an oxygen monitor
complying with ISO 7767 shall be used when the anesthetic machine
is in use.
11. CO
2
monitor complying with ISO 9918 shall be used when the
anesthetic machine is in use.
12. Adult breathing circuits used with the anesthetic machine shall comply
with ISO 8835-2.
13. Any vaporizer fi tted to the anesthetic machine shall comply with
ISO 8835-4. Additionally whilst the vaporizer is in use an anesthetic
agent monitor complying with ISO 11196 is to be used
14. The units use semiconductor devices which are susceptible to
damage by overloading, reversed polarity, electrostatic discharge
and excessive heat or radiation. Avoid hazards such as reversal
of batteries, prolonged soldering, strong RF fi elds or other forms
of radiation, use of insulation testers or accidentally applied short
circuits. Even the leakage current from an unearthed soldering iron
may cause trouble.
15. The BleaseSirius machine is not suitable for use in a MRI environment.
16. Connection of equipment to the socket outlets will increase leakage
currents. It is the users responsibility to ensure compliance to IEC
60601-1-1 (collateral standard for electrical medical systems). In the
USA equipment connected to the socket outlets must comply with
UL 60601-1 and the total sum of the system leakage current shall not
exceed 300 microamps. It is the USER’S responsibility to ensure
compliance with the above standard and that the leakage current
limits are not exceeded.
17. Connection of equipment to the auxiliary mains socket outlets may
increase leakage currents to values exceeding the allowable limits.
18. The BleaseSirius is latex free. Note that any replacement parts must
not use latex.
