PLEASE NOTE: Do not use alcohol or chloride based solutions.
After cleaning/sterilising, the turbine should be rinsed in distilled water
and left to dry.
Do not use objects, such as pens or cotton buds, to clean or dry the
turbine, as this may cause irreparable physical damage.
To replace the turbine hold the unit and the turbine swirl plate facing
you, put the turbine back into the turbine housing then push until the
turbine is fully located, such that the back of the turbine is completely
level with the back of the unit.
The PulmoLife moulding can be wiped clean using a damp cloth or
surgical wipe.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to wash or immerse the Pulmolife
transducer housing in water or cleaning fluid, as there are electronic
components inside that will be permanently damaged.
PLEASE NOTE: Used cardboard mouthpieces must be disposed off
immediately after each use.
If there are changes on the material surfaces (cracks, brittleness) the
respective parts must be disposed off.
CALIBRATION CHECK
The unit should not require recalibration. However, as a confirmation
of the correct functioning of the unit, the calibration can be checked
using a 3-litre calibration syringe. (36-SM2125). We recommend that
a calibration check is performed after the transducer has been
replaced or after it has been removed for cleaning.
To check the calibration hold down the On and Scrolling Up
keys together, and only release when ‘Ch’ is displayed.
When the blow symbol and ‘0.00’ appear, empty the 3-litre
syringe smoothly into the unit. The value will be displayed.
If the unit detects an error the blow symbol and calibration value will
flash. An acceptable calibration check is within +/-3% of the 3-litres
entered (so between
2.91 and 3.09 litres).
PLEASE NOTE: Calibration check failure is unusual but is most often
due to malfunction of the turbine, either because it is physically
damaged or dirty. Clean the turbine (see cleaning) and recheck the
calibration. If the unit still fails calibration check, replace with a new
turbine (see accessories for order number).
PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended that a used transducer is
disinfected prior to a calibration check or a MicroGard filter is used
during the procedure.
