1. Introduction The SLE2000 is a constant flow, time cycle, and pressure limited neonatal ventilator with patient triggering. Main features are that it has no expiratory valve but uses a reverse flow of mixed gas that is injected from the exhaust manifold into the expiratory limb of the patient circuit. This flow of gas has the effect of compressing 5 LPM humidified gas into the patient ET tube.

2. Remove the two screws (E) retaining the manifold and lift it clear. 3. Unscrew the old cell. 4. Assembly is the reversal of removal. 5. Screw in the new cell (Part No. N2191) and reconnect the electrical connector. After refitting, recalibrate the cell. Page 28 (SLE2000)
DO NOT steam autoclave the SLE 2000 or otherwise subject it to temperatures above 62°C. DO NOT immerse any part of the SLE 2000 in any liquid, with the exception of the expiratory exhalation block (SLE part No N2190).
Do not insert any objects into the exhalation block. Rinse the exhalation block in clean water, it must be allowed to dry thoroughly before sterilization. Warning: Ensure that the detergent solution or water does not enter the unit or the exhalation block gas ports on the side of the machine. (SLE2000) Page 31...
The exhalation block must be allowed to dry thoroughly before sterilization. 9.1.6 Sterilization method The silencer SLE part Nº N2186 and exhalation block SLE part Nº N2190 must be sterilized between use on patients. The ventilator cannot be sterilized. The exhalation block must be cleaned as an essential prerequisite to sterilization.
Bacteria Filter N2029 Bacteria Filter The SLE2000 can be used without bacterial filters N2587 in place, but the user must take extra care in not allowing secretions or fluids to enter the ventilators gas ports.
Compare digital pressure display with mechanical gauge. Error should not exceed 3%. 9.4.5 Inspiratory nozzle Turn the inspiratory pressure regulator fully clockwise, adjust PIP alarm fully clockwise. Set ventilator to CMV: 60BPM: 0.5 sec inspiration time. Peak inspiration pressure should be greater than 60 cmH Page 34 (SLE2000)
9.6 Overhaul Overhaul should be carried out at a maximum of 10,000 hours operation or every two years of service which ever is sooner. This overhaul will be performed by an SLE trained hospital engineer or an SLE service engineer.

BZ3 (BZ5 and BZ6 when the A0703/03 board fitted) and also drives the leak alarm LED should the pressure fall below 17.5 cmH O. If the pressure rises above 80 cmH O then the block LED is operated and the audible alarm will activate. (SLE2000) Page 39...
12LPM flow through it required to maintain its accuracy. This bleed is also fed to the oxygen monitoring cell, whose output is connected to the digital F10 display circuitry in the electronics module. Page 40 (SLE2000)
Page 41
The fresh gas transducer PTR2 is mounted in the electronic module and monitors the patient airway pressure. The SLE 2000 because of its unique principle of operation will ventilate the patient without the fresh gas supply. In order to ensure that the patient is always being supplied with fresh humidified gas, a restrictor is fitted in the patient fresh gas tubing close to inspiratory port of the ET connector.
NV1, which is preset to 5LPM and supplies the fresh gas to the patient circuit via SV2 (high pressure dump solenoid) and a circuit preset pressure relief valve RV2. The SV2 bypass provides a continuous flow of 1LPM through the humidifier in the event of a high pressure dump. Page 42 (SLE2000)
Gas from AIR/OXYGEN Blender is supplied to the CPAP pressure regulator REG2 via the supply manifold. The output pressure of REG2 is fed to the CPAP nozzle in the expiratory manifold, and into the expiratory limb of the patient circuit to create the circuit CPAP pressure. (SLE2000) Page 43...
SV1 which controls the breathing rate. If the pressure wave switch is in the taper position then SV3 is energised and the inspiratory flow enters the large volume chamber before reaching the inspiratory nozzle, thus lengthening the pressure rise time. Page 44 (SLE2000)
12. Test Equipment Required The following test equipment is required to perform the calibration and set up procedures as described in See “SLE2000 Calibration Procedure” on page 51. Electronic: Digital multimeter. Twin beam oscilloscope. Pneumatic: Multi-range Pressure and Flow analyser .
13. SLE2000 Calibration Procedure Note: If electronic module is being set up without the pneumatic module attached, then a dummy load must be connected to 15 way 'D' connector on base of module as a substitute for the solenoid valves. (See “Test Equipment Required” on page 50.) 13.1 Electronic unit preliminary checks and adjustment...
Then release the collet on the control knob and re-position it so that the pointer points to -5cmH Tighten the collet and rotate the control to point to 15 cmH O and adjust RV9 to give 1.20V 10mV. Repeat adjustment if necessary. Page 52 (SLE2000)

Date: 20/01/2006 Introduction This service information letter is to inform users of the SLE2000, SLE2000 HFO and SLE2000 HFO+ infant ventilators that the N2125 push button switch, N2126 yellow lens and N2127 red lens are no longer available. All new ventilators will now be supplied with the N2125/18 push button switch, N2126/18 yellow lens and N2127/18 red lens fitted as standard.
Please use the following wiring guide. SLE2000 PB1 and PB3 use N2128/04/18 switch. PB2 use N2128/02/18 switch. SLE2000 HFO & HFO+ SW2, SW3 and SW8 use N2128/04/18 switch. SW10 use N2128/02/18 switch. Step 9. Cover the soldered joints with the existing sleeve.
Date: 08/02/2006 Introduction This service information letter is to inform users of the SLE2000 infant ventilator of the new method of mounting the main PCB. This new method has been introduced as a manufacturing aid. This new method is to be used on ventilators manufactured after January 2006. Customers of existing ventilators need take no action.
13/03/2006 Introduction This service information letter is to inform users of the SLE2000 infant ventilator that the O0408 key switch mounted on the rear of the ventilator (BPM range) is no longer available. The switch has been replaced on new units and as a spare part by the O0408/EAO/01 switch.
01/03/2007 Introduction. This service information letter is to inform users of the SLE2000 of a component change on the A0703/01 PSU PCB. The N2096 sounders have been replaced by the D0727 sounder. Due to the difference in pitch between the electrical contacts on the N2096 and the D0727...
03 June 1999 This bulletin has been raised due to a design change. The change being the removal of a duplicated hour counter from the electronic chassis of SLE 2000 and SLE 2000 HFO ventilators. The change is to be phased in and some new ventilators will still have two hour counters.

Following an investigation as part of our testing programme we have discovered that the most recent batch of SLE2000 CPU boards contains an error that is not immediately obvious through normal functional testing. A batch of these boards has been assembled where the IN4148 signal diodes have been mistakenly swapped with the Schottkey BAT85 diodes (4 off of each).
05/04/2004 Introduction This technical bulletin is to inform the users of the SLE2000, SLE2000 HFO & SLE2000 HFO+ Infant ventilators that the design of the V0226 potentiometer has changed. The potentiometer has changed from a Spectrol 149SXN48S103SP to a Spectrol 149SXN40S103SP.
Sounders should be functionally tested during periodic preventative maintenance and planned overhaul, refer to the service manual. The SLE2000 has 4 alarm sounders. All sounders are activated on power-up-self-test. During this test, the 4 sounders are turned off one at a time, together with their corresponding visual alarm indicators, in the following audio-visual test sequence.
Page 183
You should hear noticeable changes in loudness between the blocked and un- blocked port state. Switch OFF and ON the SLE2000, to repeat the audible test for each sound port in turn. Bear in mind that the power fail sounder will always be the loudest; and that the BZ2 sounder, which is driven with the lowest voltage, will sound slightly less loud than the others.
