B. Replace the battery every 24 months. Record the replacement date on the battery.
C. Determine the ventilator's software revision level.
1. Proceed to the attached appendix which matches the ventilator's software revision level.
Follow the service calibration procedure.
1. Ensure that the System Master Switch is in the STANDBY position. Remove all pipeline
connections.
2. Open all cylinder valves. Verify that there is at least 1000 psi (745 psi for N2O) or higher
on the cylinder pressure gauges.
3. Close all cylinder valves. Verify that the pressure does not visibly drop in 1 minute.
4. Loosen the "T" handles and pull the cylinders back to verify that the pin index and strainer
nipples are intact.
Note: Annually, the Low Pressure Leak Test should be performed twice, once with all
vaporizers removed and once with vaporizers installed. At the annual check,
replace the vaporizer manifold port O-rings.
8. Turn a vaporizer ON to its maximum setting, checking the concentration dial for smooth
operation. Set the vaporizer to 1%. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 with the vaporizer ON.
9. Check the interlock system to ensure that only one vaporizer at a time may be turned ON.
10. Turn the vaporizer OFF. Repeat steps 9 - 11 for each mounted vaporizer.
11. Fully close all flow control valves to their minimum settings.
12. Remove the test device from the common gas outlet and reattach the common gas outlet
hose.
13. If a Blood Pressure Manometer is equipped, Check the calibration as follows:
a. Attach an approved test fixture to the fitting on the blood pressure inlet port.
b. Apply pressure until 200 mmHg ± 4 is displayed on the test device and verify that
200 mmHg ± 4 is indicated and maintained on the BP manometer.
c. Apply pressure until 100 mmHg ± 4 is displayed on the test device and verify that
100 mmHg ± 4 is indicated and maintained on the BP manometer.
d. Relieve the pressure and verify that 0 mmHg is indicated.
1. Connect all pipeline supplies and cylinder-only gas supplies (for example, Heliox).
a. Open all cylinder valves to ensure that the pneumatic circuits are pressurized.
b. Close cylinder valves for gases which also have pipeline supplies.
2. Turn the System Master Switch to the ON position.
3. Set all flowmeters for 3 L/min.
4. Verify that the cylinder gauges for pipeline supplied gasses have not dropped to 0 psi.
Such a drop would indicate that the flowmeters are being supplied by the cylinders.
5. Remove oxygen supply.
6. Verify that the following events occur in the following sequence:
a. Audio alarm activates for at least 7 seconds and Pneumatic indicator is red or orange,
if equipped.
b. Flowmeter floats for all gases except O2 fall to zero.
c. O2 flowmeter float falls to zero .
7. Ensure that the message "Low Supply Press!" is displayed on the ventilator and the audio
alarm sounds.
8. Turn all flowmeters to their minimum settings.
9. Re-establish O2 supply.
10. Verify that the audio alarm silences and the Pneumatic indicator is green or black, if
equipped.

2 cmH2O. If you find an old style relief valve, replace it with the new style valve
assembly.
F. GMS Inspection
NOTE: For units manufactured prior to 1986, verify that the Inhalation Port pressure
sensing nipple, a raised head gasket, a drain valve for adjustable height bag
arms, and check valve disk retainers with stand offs are installed.
2. Periodic Inspection
a. Gauge
1) Remove the gauge assembly and inspect the O-ring; replace as necessary.
Insert the gauge assembly into an approved test device (see tools appendix).
2) Verify the accuracy of the gauge at:
0 ± 1 cmH20 (0 ± 0.7 mmHg)
40 ± 1 cmH20 (29.4 ± 0.7 mmHg)
-5 ± 3 cmH20 (-3.7 ± 2.2 mmHg)
3) Ensure that the patient pressure sensing line is attached to the test device.
Verify that the ventilator's sub-atmospheric pressure alarm activates at
-0 ± 5 cmH20 (- 7.4 ± 3.7 mmHg).
4) Return the gauge assembly to the absorber.
5) Ensure that the pressure sensing line is attached to the absorber.

New style PEEP valves started with serial number AAXS01000. If you find an old style valve,
call the Anesthesia Complaint Coordinator in Madison, at 1-800-521-0086, for disposition.
1. Pre-Operative Checkout
a. Check that the scale and knob labels are legible. If not, replace PEEP valve
assembly.
b. Check that the instruction label is legible.
2. Inspection
a. Remove the PEEP Valve from the absorber.
b. Disassemble the lower section of the PEEP Valve and remove the blue check disk.
c. Verify that the pin moves side to side and freely in and out. Any restriction of
movement indicates that cleaning is required.
d. Reassemble the valve and reinstall it on the absorber.
3. Testing
With the patient circuit attached, the ventilator turned "OFF", and the absorber switched to
the ventilator mode, perform the following:
a. Remove the gas supply hose from the common gas outlet of the machine.
b. Attach one end of a 22 mm corrugated hose to the common gas outlet, attach the
other end to the patient outlet of the "Y" connector in the patient circuit.
c. Turn the PEEP Valve fully clockwise to the maximum PEEP setting.
d. Press the flush button while observing the absorber pressure gauge. Typically, the
indicated pressure will be approximately 40 cmH2O. If the pressure exceeds 60
cmH2O, the valve must be serviced or replaced.
e. Perform the following test:
1) Flow 3 L/min of oxygen with the PEEP Valve knob turned fully clockwise.
NOTE: If the pressure reading is not in the recommended range, the spring may
need replacing.
2) Observe the pressure on the absorber pressure gauge. It should be between
16 and 27 cmH2O.
3) Return the PEEP Valve to the "OFF" (fully counterclockwise) position and
reduce the O2 flow to minimum..
4) Remove the 22 mm corrugated hose from the common gas outlet and the "Y"
connector. Reconnect the gas supply hose and any circuit connections
previously removed.

gas hose)
NOTE: Before performing this test, the bellows must be at the bottom of the housing.
1. Set the BAG/VENT switch to VENTILATOR position (GMS and 21 Absorber with selector
switch).
2. Disconnect the 17 mm Drive Gas hose at the back of the ventilator and occlude the hose
with a test plug.
3. Observe the pressure gauge while slowly increasing the O2 flow until the pressure
reaches 30 cmH2O. Quickly reduce the flow until the pressure stabilizes.
4. The O2 flowmeter reading is the total system leak rate. Verify that the leak rate is not
greater than 225 ml/min.
NOTE: If this test is performed with a patient circuit with an occluded 'Y' piece, the
allowable leak rate is 300 ml/min.
5. Remove the corrugated hose, the test plug from the drive gas hose, and occlusions on
any gas sampling connections. Reconnect the drive gas hose.
