OCSI Sensor – (OCSI units only)
The OCSI sensor detects the oxygen concentration of the air
being delivered to the patient. The sensor consists of an intake
and outlet port on each end of a flow path that is encased in an
air-tight cover. The microprocessor determines concentration from
the OCSI sensor output, and activates alarms when appropriate.
The limits for alarm conditions are programmed into the software
of the microprocessor and are described in the Warning Alarms
section of this manual. The concentrator takes several minutes to
build internal pressure and concentration. This is known as the
warm-up period, and the signal from the sensor is ignored by the
PCB for ten (10) minutes. This means that the alarms associated
with the OCSI will not activate until this predetermined amount of
time has passed.

Serial Number Identification

The serial number of the CAIRE Companion 5 is located on the
back label of the outer case. The serial number is in the middle of
the label, just below the bar code. A sample label is shown below.
