4.5 Connect humidifier
4.5.1 Leakage ventilation
Warning!
The VENTIclick humidifier is not suitable for invasive ventilation.
Note!
An optional tube adapter is available as an accessory for the use of Fisher and Paykel
humidifiers. Be aware that technical data change when third-party humidifiers are used.
Deviations in the technical data are described in the assembly instructions for the tube
adapter.
4.5.2 Valve ventilation
VENTIclick cannot be used in conjunction with valve ventilation. We recommend humidifiers
HC 850 or HC 550 from Fisher & Paykel with the corresponding patient circuit. Follow the
associated instructions for use.
4.6 Connect bacteria filter
Caution!
The bacteria filter represents an additional resistance in the air flow. This can cause
a change to the response characteristics of the trigger. If a bacteria filter is
connected subsequently, the doctor must therefore check the device parameters
and may need to reset them.
Note:
The bacteria filter may not be operated on the device for more than 24 hours.
Follow the instructions relating to period of use in "6. Hygiene treatment" on
page 65.
