1. Introduction
1.1 How to use this manual
This manual contains chapters on how to maintain, service and overhaul the SLE 2000 HFO+
ventilator. It also contains information to set up and calibrate the ventilator to it original
specification.
Following the instructions in the relevant chapter will allow you to carry out one of the above
tasks. The manual contains circuit diagrams and descriptions of all the printed circuit boards.
To carry out routine maintenance refer to page 40.
To carry out a service refer to page 42.
To carry out an overhaul refer to page 44.
1.2 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 and the SLE 2000HFO 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.
