Trilogy100 clinical manual
The device may only be operated at temperatures between 5˚ C and
40˚ C (41˚ F and 104˚ F).
Do not operate the device in direct sunlight or near a heating
appliance because these conditions can increase the temperature of
the airflow delivered to the patient.
Prolonged operation or storage at elevated temperatures may reduce
the service life of the battery and other internal components of the
ventilator.
The ventilator has an internal and detachable Lithium-Ion Battery. Do
not expose the device or detachable battery to temperatures above
40˚ C (104˚ F) during use, or above 60˚ C (140˚ F) during storage. This
will reduce battery life and may increase the risk of fire or damage the
battery.
Condensation may affect operation or accuracy of the device. If the
device has been exposed to either very hot or very cold temperatures
during storage, allow it to adjust to ambient temperature before
starting therapy.
The reusable foam inlet filter is required to protect the ventilator from
dirt and dust. Wash periodically and replace when damaged for proper
operation.
Do not block the cooling air vents located on the base and the rear
of the device. This may cause the device to overheat in high ambient
temperatures or at high therapy settings.
The internal and detachable batteries wear out based on the amount
of use (hours or full charge-discharge cycles). The battery capacity and
life are also reduced by operation at higher temperatures.
Only use the Philips Respironics Trilogy Detachable Battery with the
ventilator.
