Connecting Additional Devices - Dräger Perseus A500 Instructions For Use Manual

Connecting additional devices

Perseus is equipped with auxiliary power sockets
(with automatic circuit breakers or fuses) under the
column covering, see page 26.
1 Connect the power cable of the additional
device to an auxiliary power socket.
2 For Perseus with isolation transformer:
Switch on the power for the isolation
transformer and the auxiliary power sockets
using the isolation transformer switch.
Make sure that the maximum power consumption
of additional devices does not exceed permissible
values.
WARNING
Risk of fire
In combination with oxygen or nitrous oxide,
ignition sources such as electrosurgery and
laser surgery can cause fires.
– Maintain a distance of at least 200 mm
(7.9 in) between electrical connections
and components which conduct oxygen
and nitrous oxide.
– Cables and connections must be
sufficiently insulated and must not be
damaged. Check cables for damage daily.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
The connection of devices to auxiliary power
sockets can lead to an increased leakage
current. If the protective ground of one of
these devices fails, the leakage current may
rise above the permissible values. Only
connect with the approval of the respective
device manufacturer. Have the leakage
current checked by service personnel.
If the permissible value is exceeded, use a
mains power socket on a wall instead of the
auxiliary power socket of the device.
Instructions for use Perseus A500 SW 1.1n
WARNING
Risk of electric shock and of device
malfunction
Any connected devices or device
combinations not complying with the
requirements in these instructions for use
may compromise correct functioning of the
medical device.
– Do not connect high-frequency surgery
equipment to the auxiliary power sockets
of the anesthesia machine.
– Before using the medical device, refer to
and strictly comply with the instructions
for use of all connected devices and
device combinations.
WARNING
Risk of electrical shock due to penetration of
fluids
Only use the medical device with the column
cover closed.
Other interfaces
Only connect devices to COM 1 or COM 2 that
comply with the limiting values for safety extra low
voltage (SELV) at the interface, even in case of
malfunction.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
If a USB storage medium with its own power
supply is used, failure of its protective
ground may raise the patient leakage current.
Only use USB storage media without their
own power supply as authorized by the list of
accessories.
