TIMOX MF8050 Oxygen Timer Medical Fittings
GENERAL
The function of the TIMOX Oxygen Timer is to display and record the amount of time oxygen has been lowing to a patient. The display is constantly visible, indicates when oxygen is lowing and is easily reset.
OPERATION
Place the TIMOX Oxygen Timer in service by connecting its hand-tight inlet fitting to the downstream side of a flowmeter or regulator. The timer generates a small amount of backpressure; therefore it should be used with a backpressure-compensated flowmeter. Besides oxygen, the timer can be used with compressed air, helium, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide.
DO NOT USE IN HAZARDOUS ATMOSPHERES.
READING HOURS
The display is an LCD and is constantly visible. The timer will start running
when the low reaches. 4 LPM ±.1 LPM. The decimal point blinks when the timer
is running. The display is capable of showing a maximum elapsed time of 1999.9
hours.
RESETTING
To reset the timer to 0 hours, simply insert a pen or pencil tip into the hole marked “RESET” on the front of the timer to press the reset switch.
CARE
The TIMOX Oxygen Timer is an electronic device and must be handled with reasonable care. Do not submerge the unit in any liquid. Do not au- toclave it. Clean the exterior with a mild detergent and a damp cloth.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
- The battery should be replaced when the display becomes dim.
- Remove the three small screws at the upper right and left and lower left outer corners of the back of the unit. (The screw at the lower right-hand corner does not need to be removed.)
- Lift the backplate/pressure block assembly out of the housing. Be careful not to pull the wires loose from the PC board.
- Remove the old battery by pulling it out of the battery holder.
- Insert the new battery into the battery holder so its + and – ends match the markings in the bottom of the battery holder. (If the battery is put in backward, the LCD display will remain blank.) The replacement battery is a lithium-type battery Sanyo #CR14250SE or equal. It can be purchased from Medical Fittings, Inc. (our part #8066) or from any electronics supply store such as Newark Electronics.
- Replace the backplate/pressure block assembly; be careful not to pinch the wires between the PC board and the pressure block. Orient the backplate/pressure block assembly so the hand-tight connection is at the end away from the LCD display. Replace the three screws in the back and make sure the timer display is visible, it should read 000.0 hours.
