1Introduction
Overview
Congratulations on your choice of the EX3000 Veterinary Anesthesia System! The EX3000 is the premier
veterinary electronic dual drug delivery system in the world with safety monitoring ability. This machine
is specially designed to be compact, well balanced, and able to withstand the rigors of everyday clinical
use providing long-term safe and trouble-free performance.
This manual describes the features, safety precautions, setup, and operation of the anesthesia system. It is
recommended that you read the entire manual before attempting to operate the system.
System Safety
Operation of your EX3000 Anesthesia System involves oxygen gas pressure, electrical power, and the use
of potentially hazardous materials. In order to prevent injury to patients and/or operators and damage to
the anesthesia system, please review Section 2 – Safety before performing any of the procedures
contained in this manual. If you have any safety questions or comments, please contact Vetland or your
local distributor.
WARNING! This veterinary anesthesia system should only be operated by veterinary
professionals qualified to administer anesthesia.
General Description
The EX3000 Veterinary Anesthesia System is a device that administers oxygen to patients. The machine
is also capable of delivering an anesthetic agent in the form of a vapor. The vaporizer converts a liquid
anesthetic into a measured amount of vapor, which is then carried to the patient by the oxygen.
Before anesthesia can be administered, the operator must connect oxygen to the anesthesia machine, fill
the vaporizer with anesthetic agent, and fill the absorber canister with absorbent. The breathing bag,
patient breathing circuit, and all accessory tubing and bags must then be connected. After the oxygen
supply is turned on and the scavenger tubing is connected to the waste gas elimination system, the
anesthesia system is ready for the daily pre-operation checkout and patient use.
The operator selects the oxygen flow rate by touching the green dot on the touch screen (see Figure 1-5)
and then touching the increase arrow ()ordecreasearrow()untilthedesiredflowrateisdisplayed.
Next, the operator selects the anesthetic agent, such as Sevoflurane or Isoflurane, by touching the Agent
Type area of the touch screen and then using the increase or decrease arrows until the desired agent is
displayed.
Then the operator selects the anesthetic concentration percentage by touching the Vaporizer
Concentration Percentage area of the touch screen and using the increase or decrease arrows until the
desired percentage of agent to be delivered is displayed.
The wye connector of the patient breathing circuit is then attached to the mask or 15 mm endotracheal
tube connector. The gas mixture flows through the inspiration valve into the patient’s lungs. The patient
exhales through the expiration valve into the breathing bag.
In the breathing bag, the exhaled gas mixes with the constantly flowing fresh gas. The fresh and exhaled
gas mixtures are forced through the CO2absorber where the exhaled carbon dioxide is removed and the
ventilation cycle is repeated.

1-2 Introduction
Overall the Vetland Medical EX3000 has the ability to deliver oxygen, Isoflurane, or Sevoflurane in
accurate dosages to the patient. The system has programmable monitoring parameters and alarms
configured by the user to aid in patient welfare. Figure 1-1 shows a diagram of how the system operates.
