Note:
The bacteria filter may not be operated on the device for more than 24 hours.
Follow the instructions relating to period of use in “6. Hygiene treatment” on
page 67.
If the therapy device is intended for use by several patients (e.g. in a hospital), a bacteria
filter must be used to prevent infections.
4.6.1 Leakage ventilation
In combination with leakage ventilation, use bacteria
filter WM 24148.
If the bacteria filter is used alone, it is connected directly
to the device outlet port and the ventilation tube is
plugged onto the bacteria filter.
4.6.2 Valve ventilation
In combination with valve ventilation, use bacteria
filter WM 27591.
If the bacteria filter is used alone, it is connected directly
to the device outlet port and the ventilation tube is
plugged onto the bacteria filter.
If a humidifier and/or an oxygen sensor is to be connected as well, a different sequence
applies.
Combination with a humidifier
1. Connect the bacteria filter directly to the therapy device.
2. Connect the humidifier to the outlet of the bacteria filter.
3. Connect the patient circuit to the humidifier.
Combination with an oxygen sensor
1. Connect the oxygen sensor directly to the therapy device.
2. Connect the bacteria filter to the outlet of the oxygen sensor.
