Connecting External Low-Pressure Oxygen
External low-pressure oxygen sources can be connected to V*Home to add oxygen into the Ventec One-Circuit. The ow
of low-pressure oxygen is controlled by the oxygen source, not by the V*Home oxygen controls.
NOTE: The FiO2 Monitor and FiO2 alarms are not available while using an external source of low‑pressure oxygen.

When an external low‑pressure oxygen source is applied, use external O2 monitoring equipment (which may be
included with the oxygen source) compliant with ISO 80601‑2‑55 to verify oxygen delivery before putting the system into
service. To connect external O2 monitoring equipment to V*Home, follow all instructions provided by the monitoring
equipment manufacturer.
NOTE: To prevent oxygen accumulation in and around the device, ensure the low‑pressure oxygen source is off while
V*Home is off.
To connect an external low-pressure oxygen source (e.g., oxygen concentrator or liquid oxygen):
1 Connect an O2 Low Pressure Inlet Adapter (available from
Ventec Life Systems) to the low-pressure O2 port on the back
of V*Home.
2 Connect the oxygen source to the adapter.
3 Follow all instructions from the low-pressure oxygen source
manufacturer to begin providing Oxygen therapy. See
“Low-Pressure Oxygen Blending” on page 178 for charts
illustrating the expected FiO2 at various settings.
