| See Manual
Indicates a hardware fault. The Humidifier and all accessories shall be
replaced immediately and sent for servicing.
| Low Temperature
Warns if the displayed temperature falls below a predetermined performance
threshold for a predetermined time. This alarm condition can be caused by many
factors such as cold and/or drafty ambient conditions or very high or low gas
flows.
For Invasive Mode, a “Low Priority” alarm is activated 25 seconds after the
displayed temperature falls below 35.5 °C. If the temperature remains low, a
“Medium Priority” alarm is activated (depending on both the length of time the
displayed temperature is below 35.5 °C as well as the level of temperature
drop).
For Mask Mode, a “Low Priority” alarm is activated 25 seconds after the
displayed temperature falls below 26.0 °C.
| High Temperature
Warns if the gas temperature exceeds a predetermined performance threshold.
A Medium Priority alarm is activated immediately if at any time the displayed
temperature reaches 41 °C, or if the Airway Probe temperature reaches 43 °C.
The Humidifier will immediately power down the Heater-wire and Heater- plate,
followed by a flashing temperature display.
NOTES:
- Under cold or drafty conditions, the chamber outlet temperature may drop as low as 35.5 °C in order to minimize condensation forming in the Breathing Circuit.
- The Low-Temperature Alarm is a “Low Priority” or “Medium Priority” alarm. All other alarms have been assessed as “Medium Priority” alarms.
- The alarm conditions are specified for an operator’s position of within 1 meter of the device.
