Introduction

Page 10 of 258 Issue 10 (01/10/2004)
1. Introduction
The SLE2000 HFO Principles of Operation
The SLE2000 HFO is based on the patented valveless ventilator design and can be operated
in conventional modes of ventilation.
When used as a High frequency oscillatory ventilator an
additional flow of driving gas is introduced into the
exhalation block. This flow is supplied through a rotating
shaft mounted on a variable speed motor. This flow of
driving gas is adjusted by the oscillatory pressure regulator
mounted in the pneumatic module ensuring a constant
oscillatory pressure waveform at all operating frequencies.
This rotating driving pressure produces oscillatory action in
the patient circuit with an active expiratory flow of gas. The
oscillatory flow of gas is supplied from a separate rotating
jet, therefore it is possible to add the oscillations to the
inspiration or expiration pressures. It is also possible to add
oscillations to the inspiratory plateau when operating the
ventilator in any of the Patient triggered modes of operation.
As in the SLE2000 every care has been taken in the design to ensure the safe operation of the
ventilator. When in use the rotation of the motor is constantly being monitored, should any
malfunction be detected in the HFO operation the flow of oscillatory driving gas will
immediately be stopped, and the ventilator will display motor failure alarm. All other functions
of the ventilator such as micro-processors, fans, internal solenoids and front panel controls are
constantly being checked for correct operation.

2.3 Electronic Module
Board positions within the electronic unit
The Electronic module is shielded against EM interference, these shields must be removed
taking care not to damage the contact fingers at the connecting edges.
Position of the boards within the electronic module.
1) HFO Main Board Assembly (A0736/03)
2) Ventilator CPU Board Assembly (A0702/04)
3) Motor Drive Board Assembly (A0739/02)
4) Alarm Board Assembly (A0738) (Not visible from drawing. - mounted on back
panel.)
5) Pressure Drift Monitor Assembly (A07450) (Not visible from drawing)
Note: Boards 1,2, and 3 are polarised by the position of the edge connectors
thus preventing the boards being inserted into the wrong sockets.

3. Access to the SLE2000 HFO
Caution: All electrical and pneumatic connections must be disconnected before attempting to
gain access to either the Electronic or Pneumatic modules.
The SLE 2000 HFO consists of two linked modules, Electronic and Pneumatic
3.1 Electronic Module
1. Remove 2 screws at rear and 2 screws at either side of the unit.
2. Slide top cover to the rear and remove.
3. Remove these four screws from EM shielding.
4. Loosen these screws on either side of unit (one of them is not visible from the drawing).
5. Remove EM shielding taking care not to damage metal contact fingers on front edge of
plates.
6. To remove the PCB assemblies, remove retaining thumbscrews (one for each board) next
to the edge connector.
7. Disconnect all pneumatic and electrical connections to the board and pull board out.

3.3 Separating the two modules
Invert the ventilator to gain access to the base of the pneumatic unit (see section 3.2 on page
19).
1. Remove the four screws
2. Remove proximal airway pressure tube connection
3. Remove fresh gas monitoring tube connection
4. Loosen both locking screws and disconnect 25 way plug.
It is now possible to separate the pneumatic module from the electronic chassis.
