Connecting a Humidier and Heated Wire Ventec One-Circuit
When using a humidier, use a heated-wire Ventec One-Circuit to manage water condensation inside the Ventec One-
Circuit. Place the humidier below V*Home and the patient to prevent water from leaking into the patient.
WARNING: Do not use heated wire Ventec One-Circuits on, within, or under localized heat sources or insulating
materials such as blankets or thermal chambers. External sources of heat or insulation may impair the performance of
heated wire Ventec One-Circuits.
NOTE: Using humidiers or other accessories not specied for use with this system may impair V*Home performance.
Ventec Life Systems recommends use of the Fisher & Paykel HC550, the Fisher & Paykel MR850, or equivalent.
Humidiers connected to the Ventec One‑Circuit should comply with ISO 8185.
Connecting a Ventec One-Circuit to a Humidier
To connect a humidier to the Ventec One-Circuit:
1 Connect a length of patient circuit tubing (sold separately) to the open end of the external bacterial lter.
Connect the other end to the humidier.
2 When connecting a heated wire Ventec One-Circuit to the humidier, follow instructions from the humidier
manufacturer to connect heated wire and temperature sensor lines from the humidier to the Ventec One-Circuit.
