4.11 Feeding in oxygen
4.11.1 Connecting an oxygen supply
Requirement • The patient is not connected to the device.
• The oxygen cylinder is full.
Risk of injury posed by the combination of highly compressed
oxygen and hydrocarbon compounds!
When combined with highly compressed oxygen, hydrocarbon
compounds (e.g., oil, grease, cleaning alcohols, hand cream or
adhesive plasters) can cause explosions and injuries to the patient,
user and bystanders.
Wash hands thoroughly and remove adhesive plasters before
using highly compressed oxygen.
Risk of injury if oxygen escapes from damaged oxygen
cylinders or pressure reducers!
Oxygen can escape unchecked from damaged oxygen cylinders or
pressure reducers. This may lead to explosions and cause injury to
the patient, user and bystanders.
Tighten all screwed unions on the oxygen cylinder and on the
pressure reducer by hand only.
Secure the oxygen cylinder so that it cannot fall over.
Risk of injury due to particles of dust which have been
blown away!
When you open the oxygen cylinder, particles of dust which
are blown away by the high pressure may injure the user or
bystanders.
Hold the valve opening so that it points away from the body.
Hold the valve opening so that no bystanders can be affected.
Connecting several devices to the same oxygen supply may
result in loss of performance!
If you connect several devices to the same oxygen supply,
the performance of the device and of the individual components
may be reduced.
Do not operate MEDUMAT Standard

simultaneously with
other devices sharing the same oxygen supply.
