INTRODUCTION
The Soccer Ball Nebulizer Compressor System is a medical device designed to
deliver medicine prescribed by a physician to the airways of the lungs. The Nebulizer
Set and the Air Compressor combined provides aerosol mist for inhalation by the
patient for medical treatment only.
Statement of Indication for Use
The Soccer Ball Nebulizer Compressor is including an AC powered air compressor
that provides a source of compressed air for use with a jet nebulizer in a home health
care setting. The compressor provides a maximum flow rate of 8 Lpm that can be
connected to is used in conjunction with a jet (pneumatic) nebulizer with the same
form for inhalation by a patient. The patient population is determined by the
nebulizer to which it is connected.
The disposable nebulizer cup is used to administer various aerosol treatments to adult and
pediatric patients in both the homecare and healthcare settings. Its use is indicated
whenever a physician or healthcare professional administers or prescribes medical aerosol
products to a patient using a Small Volume Nebulizer. The disposable nebulizer cup is
disposable, single-patient-use and intended for use with pediatric (5 years and older) and
adult patient.
The Reusable Jet Nebulizer is a handheld, pneumatic nebulizer designed to aerosolize
prescription drugs for inhalation by a patient. Its use is indicated whenever a healthcare
professional administers or prescribes medical aerosol products to a patient using a small
volume nebulizer. The Reusable Jet Nebulizer is intended for use with pediatric (2 years
and older) and as defined by the prescribed medication and adult patients in hospital/
institutional settings, home care use, schools, and long term care facilities.

It is recommended to keep extra tubing, accessories and air filters
or soiled.
CAUTION
If you did not receive the components listed in this manual, please contact
the dealer where you purchased your nebulizer.
SETTING UP THE NEBULIZER COMPRESSOR AND NEBULIZER ACCESSORIES
CAUTION
Tubing and accessories are NOT sterile from package.
Prior to initial operation, the nebulizer should be thoroughly cleaned.
1. Wash hands with soap and warm water and dry completely with
a clean towel.

1. Filter should be changed every 6 months or sooner if filter discolors.
2. Remove filter by grasping it firmly and pulling out of the unit. Discard
old filter.
3. Replace with a new filter. Additional filters should be purchased from your
Compass provider.
4. Push new filter into position.
CAUTION–Do not reuse or wash filter or substitute any other material such as
cotton for an air-inlet filter. It will result in compressor damage.
MAINTENANCE
To keep your Compressor Nebulizer working properly, please do follow the
If experiencing a problem regarding the device, such as the device cannot be turned on,
noise being too loud, no medicine being dispersed, or water drops forming in the air hose,
instructions in above mentioned cleaning and disinfection processes.
please proceed to the "TROUBLESHOOTING" guide on the page 12.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
The information contained in this section (such as separation distances) is in general
specifically written with regard to Soccer Ball Nebulizer. The numbers provided
will not guarantee faultless operation but should provide reasonable assurance of such.
This information may not be applicable to other medical electrical equipment;
older equipment may be particularly susceptible to interference.
General Notes:
Medical electrical equipment requires special precautions regarding electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) and needs to be installed and put into service according to the
EMC information provided in this document and the remainder of the instructions for
use this device.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical
equipment.
Cables and accessories not specified within the instructions for use are not authorized.
Using other cables and/or accessories may adversely impact safety, performance and
electromagnetic compatibility (increased emission and decreased immunity).
Care should be taken if the equipment is used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment; if adjacent or stacked use is inevitable, the equipment should be observed
to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
The MODEL will continue to provide air to the nebulizer when exposed to the
