Connecting Gas Fittings

The "Smart" Air Fitting
There are two gas connections on the rear
panel of the ventilator. The one on the left of
the panel is for attaching the Air or Heliox
gas source.
The smart connector fitting type shown here
is CGA DISS-type body No. 1160 for air with
an integral water trap/filter. To prevent the
entry of moisture into the ventilator from a
wall air source, the external water trap is
placed in-line between the air hose and the
"smart" air connector.
To attach, align the connector assembly
(Figure 2–27), seat gently onto the fitting and
screw down the fitting collar until finger tight.
Similar connectors for Air with NIST and
Air Liquide fittings are also available from
CareFusion.

Chapter 2: Unpacking and Setup
The oxygen sensor cell is located on the rear panel, between the two gas fittings.
The oxygen sensor cable emerges from the rear panel directly above the sensor.
Carefully align and then gently push the connector onto the oxygen sensor until it
seats. When a good connection has been made, slide the protective cover down
and push over the sensor.
