The Moduflex Coaxial is the first machine to incorporate a CO2 absorber with an integrated Coaxial
breathing circuit. This reduces clutter, eliminates the possibility of a disconnection, and reduces heat
loss by preheating the inhaled gasses with the exhaled gasses. The Moduflex Elite is the same as the
Moduflex Coaxial, but with the traditional “Y” connections.
STANDARD FEATURES
• 0.1 to 4 LPM O2 flowmeters (up to 2 flowmeters
can be installed).
• Rotary float and large scale for easy readability.
• Recessed flush valves to prevent accidental
activation.
• Quick connect fresh gas outlet for easy and
secure switching between breathing circuits.
• SELECTATECTM compatibility manifold for easy
and quick installation of vaporizer
• 1500 ml CO2 absorber with integrated coaxial
breathing circuit reduces patient heat loss, helps
to humidify the inspired gas and reduce clutter.
• Condensation trap to prevent water build-up in
soda lime. Easy and efficient gas sealing.
• Momentary closed features incorporated into
pop-off valve.
• Convenient anesthesia monitor shelf.
• 2.5 meter oxygen supply hose (D.I.S.S.).
• 5-year warranty.
OPTIONAL FEATURES
• Small cylinder holder
• Bain circuit adaptor
• 0-1 LPM O2 flowmeter
• Up to 2 flowmeters can
be installed
• Circuit pressure alarm
• Extra large monitor shelf

Your Moduflex Coaxial or Elite anesthesia ma-
chine requires some assembly before use. The
Moduflex Elite is the same as the Moduflex
Coaxial, but with the traditional “Y” connec-
tions.
RECEIVING
In order to reduce the possibility of damage to
a minimum during shipping, the head assembly
and other breathing circuit components have
been detached from the unit. These compo-
nents are packed separately within the ship-
ping crate.
INSPECTION
On receipt of your unit, inspect the shipping
container and the enclosed components for
signs of damage. Check your Materials List to
ensure that all the necessary components are
included.

1. Insert the vaporizer into the bracket. 2. Secure
the vaporizer in place with the locking mecha-
nism.
1. Screw the Bain adapter holder onto the anes-
thesia machine. 2. Insert the Bain adapter into
the bracket previously attached to the unit.
*Bain type open circuit on an anesthesia machine
gives you better control during surgery. The
breathing bag is always inflated, no need to wait
for it to have reached a certain size before venti-
lating the patient. Moduflex Bain is equipped with
a pressure gauge that gives you the possibility to
check the animal’s lung pressure. The Bain adap-
tor is equipped with a momentary valve to avoid
forgetting the valve in a closed position, which
could cause pulmonary trauma to the animal.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Screw the interface to anesthesia unit using the
screws provided in the package. Install the scav-
enger interface as per interface instructions.
During surgery unused gas should be evacuated
outside of the building to avoid it being inhaled
by your employees and patients. Connected to
a gas evacuation ventilator, the scavenger inter-
face controls the flow of suction and maintains
the balance with the quantity of unused gas.

IMPORTANT: Always refer to the user manual of the
option you are installing for more detailed instruc-
tions.
1. Screw the circuit alarm holder on the anes-
thesia machine. 2. Screw the circuit alarm to the
support previously screwed to the device.
During assisted ventilation, the alarm will alert
you if the predetermined pressure level is
reached. For example, if you forget the evacua-
tion valve in a closed position, the circuit alarm
will alert you with a warning sound at the prede-
termined pressure.

IMPORTANT : Always refer to the user manual of
the option you are installing for more detailed
instructions.
1. Place and screw the two sections of the
holder around the post of the anesthesia ma-
chine. 2. Connect the hose to the appropriate
connections.
The cylinder holder can be helpful in many situ-
ations. It can be very useful when there is a lack
of oxygen in the central system. In the occasion-
al case where you need to move an anesthetized
animal to a room where there are no oxygen out-
lets, the cylinder holder enables you to keep the
patient in an ideal condition.

Connect the circuit to be verified to the fresh
gas outlet of the anesthesia machine.
Obstruct the patient’s circuit outlet with a plug
or your thumb.
Open flowmeter to approximately 200 ml. Close the gas evacuation valve.
The unit’s integrity should be verified every day, and at each re-
placement of patient circuit components such as breathing bags,
tubes, etc. A properly maintained anesthesia machine reduces gas
consumption and operating room pollution.
Prerequisites:
Oxygen supply of 40 to 60 psi
(3 bars) Breathing circuit and
bag.

TM/MC
If you encounter an excessive leak, it is recom-
mended that you proceed by elimination to find
the source of the problem by replacing a single
component at a time. The most frequent leaks
can be found at the fresh gas outlet o’ring, the
patient circuit and the bag.
Once the leak is identified, dispose of the de-
fective item to avoid it being reused by error.
At the end of each day, it is recommended that
you close the oxygen tank and fill the
anesthetic agent vaporizer.

Press oxygen flush button and hold until the
pressure on the manometer indicates approxi-
mately 30 cm H2O.
Check the manometer. The pressure must not
drop (but it can increase). If the pressure drops,
replace the patient circuit and the bag and try
again.
Caution: Open the evacuation valve before us-
ing the anesthesia machine again.
