  • Page 11: Quick Setup Guide

    Quick Setup Guide Attach the air tubing and pressure sensor tube to the VPAP Adapt SV and mask (page 9). Attach a humidifier if required (page 11). Switch on the VPAP Adapt SV. Make sure the mask is unblocked. Select the mask setting (page 22). Perform the Air Circuit Learn function (page 22) at first-time use, or if you are adding or removing a component of the system (eg, a humidifier or anti-bacterial filter).

    Luer connectors together at the Proximal cuff. Make sure the pressure sensor tube is not kinked, obstructed or twisted. Note: ResMed recommends the following tubing products for use with the VPAP Adapt SV: replacement air hose (only) PN14968; replacement air delivery system (hose, sensor line, clips, proximal cuff) PN26923.
  • Page 15: Assembling The Vpap Adapt Sv System

    There are two sockets at the rear of the flow generator—the top one for an AC (standard mains electricity) and the lower one for a DC power cord (see “Using DC Power to Run the VPAP Adapt SV” on page 16). ResMed recommends using the AC power cord supplied with the unit.
  • Page 16 Connect air tubing Connect the air tube firmly onto the air outlet at the front of the unit. Figure 4: Front view of VPAP Adapt SV To attach the pressure sensor tube to the unit, screw the Luer connector onto the socket on the side of the unit.
  • Page 17: Humidifiers

    Humidifiers A humidifier may be required if you are experiencing dryness of the nose, throat, or mouth. The following ResMed humidifiers are compatible with the VPAP Adapt SV: HumidAire™ HumidAire 2i™ heated humidifier heated humidifier Humidifier accessory (HumidAire only) Medium air tubing 21"...
  • Page 18: Humidaire 2I

    HumidAire 2i™ The HumidAire 2i provides heated humidification for the VPAP Adapt SV. To attach the HumidAire 2i, remove the VPAP Adapt SV front cover and attach the humidifier docking station and water chamber. No other accessories are required for use. Please refer to the HumidAire 2i User’s Manual for details. Once you have performed the Air Circuit Learn function the VPAP Adapt SV is ready for use.
  • Page 19: Humidaire

    HumidAire™ You will need a medium size 21" (52 cm) air tube to connect the VPAP Adapt SV unit to the HumidAire™ (see Figure 7). Make sure both the HumidAire and the VPAP Adapt SV are turned off. Fill the HumidAire with water as described in the humidifier manual. Place the filled water chamber inside the HumidAire.
  • Page 20 Connect the mask system to the free end of the long air tubing. The final assembly should look like this: Switch on the HumidAire and the VPAP Adapt SV. WARNING Make sure that the power cords and plugs are in good condition and the equipment is not damaged.
  • Page 21: Reslink

    ResLink™ The ResLink is a device that records data onto a SmartMedia™ card during your therapy. The card can be returned to your clinician so that they can observe your progress and adjust flow generator parameters if necessary. The ResLink connects to the back of VPAP Adapt SV as shown.
  • Page 22: Using Dc Power To Run The Vpap Adapt Sv

    Using DC Power to Run the VPAP Adapt SV The VPAP Adapt SV can be run on DC in case of power failure. ResMed supplies separately a converter that allows a 12 V or 24 V battery to be connected to the DC input of the VPAP Adapt SV.
  • Page 23: Using The Vpap Adapt Sv

    Using the VPAP Adapt SV WARNING Before starting therapy with a new mask select the correct mask type in the Settings menu (page 22). When adding or removing a new component such as a mask, humidifier, or anti-bacterial filter, perform the Air Circuit Learn function (page 22).
