SECTION 1: GENERAL INFORMATION INTENDED USE The Airborne Observation and Phototherapy Light System is intended to be used in one of two modes: observation light mode or phototherapy light mode. The observation light mode utilizes white light and is intended to be used as auxiliary lighting that supplements the ambient lighting. The phototherapy light mode utilizes blue light and is intended to be used in the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.
SECTION 1: GENERAL INFORMATION Control Box The control box plugs into the incubator’s lamp connector and mounts to the incubator via two screws. Alternatively the control box can receive power form the optional AC power supply. It has a three position switch: O - OFF (center position), I - Observation Light ON, and II - Phototherapy Light ON.
International Biomedical is not to be held responsible if the Observation & Phototherapy Light System is used in a manner inconsistent with the instructions herein. This device has no performance which is considered essential.

SECTION 2: SAFETY INFORMATION PLACEMENT OF LIGHT BAR: Placement should be centered between the top of the inner and outer chambers where the patient cannot access unit. Do not place the light bar inside the inner chamber. EYE PROTECTION: Do not look directly into the LEDs. During observation or phototherapy light usage, always protect the patient’s eyes with eye shields or equivalent.

SECTION 4: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1: Phototherapy Light Lifetime Indicator When the red phototherapy lifetime indicator on the light bar is illuminated, the blue LEDs have exceeded their 39,000 hour limit and it is time to replace the light bar. 2: Phototherapy LEDs NOTE: Check irradiance intensity monthly with a calibrated light meter to ensure that the light is outputting correctly.
SECTION 5: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE To ensure proper operation, standby readiness, malfunction reporting, and performance of required maintenance, International Biomedical recommends following a preventative maintenance program. The daily preventative maintenance can be performed and recorded by knowledgeable incubator transport personnel. Monthly maintenance should be performed and recorded by a qualified biomedical technician.

SECTION 7: CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The theory of operation of the lighting system is described. The individual schematics for the LED board and display board should be referred to when reading the theory of operation. CONTROL BOX This section describes the theory of operation of the Lighting Systems Control Box. The power comes into the control box through connector J1, but only when the incubator is ON (or when plugged into the option AC power supply which is receiving AC power).
