Page 9: Operating Information
SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES Operating Information For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each concentrator be on and running for a minimum of 30 minutes at a time. Shorter periods of operation may reduce maximum product life. Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit out from under such items as blankets, bed coverings, chair cushions, clothing and away from heated or hot surfaces, including space heaters, stoves and similar electrical appliances. DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the power cord. NEVER drop or insert any object or liquid into any opening. Invacare recommends that Crush‐Proof oxygen tubing be used with this product and not exceed 50 ft in length. There are no user serviceable parts. This does not include normal maintenance items. See maintenance section for user maintenance items. A product should NEVER be left unattended when plugged in. Make sure the Perfecto is Off when not in use. Close supervision is necessary when this product is used near children or physically‐challenged individuals. Additional monitoring or attention may be required for patients using this device who are unable to hear or see alarms or communicate discomfort. DO NOT connect the concentrator in parallel or series with other oxygen concentrators or oxygen therapy devices. Radio Frequency Interference This equipment has been tested and found to comply with EMC limits specified by IEC/EN 60601‐1‐2. These limits are designed to provide a reasonable protection against electromagnetic interference in a typical medical installation. Part No 1143482... - Page 10 SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES Other devices may experience interference from even the low levels of electromagnetic emissions permitted by the above standards. To determine if the emissions from the Perfecto is causing the interference, turn the Perfecto Off. If the interference with the other device(s) stops, then the Perfecto is causing the interference. In such rare cases, interference may be reduced or corrected by one of the following measures: • Reposition, relocate, or increase the separation between the equipment. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the other device(s) is connected.
