OPERATING ＆ INSTALLATION
NOTE: To properly read the flowrate, locate the prescribed flowrate line on the flowmeter.
Next, turn the flow knob until the ball rises to the line.
Now, center the ball on the L/min line prescribed.
If the flowrate on the flowmeter ever falls below 0.5L/min, check
tubing or accessories for blocked or kinked tubing or a defective
humidifier bottle.
Meanwhile, humidifier bottle will have air bubble around the diffuser. Then, oxygen
comes from the oxygen outlet.
3. Connect the fire safe cannula valve (see the accessories) and the nasal oxygen cannula to
the oxygen outlet. ( See Figure 5 )
Note: The firesafe valve is a thermal fuse designed to extinguish an oxygen delivery tube
fire and stop the flow of oxygen if the tube is accidentally ignited. And the firesafe valve is
flow direction-sensitive component, the install direction must correct.
Note: The firesafe valve is maintenance free and has an intended life of 4 years. Dispose of
any firesafe valve 4 years after the manufacturing date state on the device label. Once
actuated, the firesafe valve cannot be reset and must be discarded.
Note: There is another firesafe valve installed close to the oxygen outlet and inside the
cabinet of the oxygen concentrator.
Note: The proper placement and positioning of the prongs of the nasal cannula in the nose
is critical to the amount of oxygen delivered to the respiratory system of the patient.
Note: The nasal cannula is single use. Re-using the cannula may increase the re-infection
risk.
