Select The Ventilator's Power Source - ZOLL AEV Operator's Manual

5. Select the Ventilator's Power Source

The ZOLL Ventilator can run using one of the following power sources:
1. Internal 14.4V lithium ion (Li Ion) rechargeable battery with 6.75 Ah capacity (fully
charged, the battery provides 10 hours of operation at factory default settings with pulse
oximeter operating at 25C).
2. External AC/DC Power Supply that ZOLL provides (100-240 VAC 50/60 and 400 Hz with
an IEC 320 style AC input connector. The AC/DC Power Supply provides a DC output of
24V at 4.2A.
3. External DC power from a standard vehicle DC outlet using either the 12 or 28 VDC Power
Cable that ZOLL provides to connect the ventilator to the DC outlet. The ZOLL Ventilator's
input connector accepts DC voltages between 11.8 to 30.0 VDC.
An external battery.
4.
The ZOLL Ventilator uses external power when available rather than its internal battery pack.
When an acceptable external power source is present, the ventilator automatically charges the
internal battery while the unit operates. When an external power failure occurs, the unit
automatically switches to its internal battery for operating power and activates the EXTERNAL
POWER FAILURE alarm; there is no interruption in operation or loss of any alarms. When
external power returns, operating power automatically switches from internal power to the
external source.
In the event that the device needs to be shutdown, turn the POWER switch to the OFF ("O")
position. If this fails to work or puts the patient or operator at possible risk, disconnect the
device from the mains power.
To connect the ventilator to an external power source, connect an AC/DC Power Supply plug to
the unit's External Power Input and an acceptable electrical outlet.
