Fitting the expiratory valve or the neonatal expiratory valve to the ventilator
This section addresses how to fit the expiratory valve to the ventilator Evita. The
neonatal expiratory valve is fitted to the Evita and Babylog ventilators in the same
manner.
Prerequisites:
–
Procedure:
1. Turn the locking ring of the expiratory valve as far as possible to the left.
2. Push the expiratory valve (1) into the fitting.
3. Turn the locking ring (2) as far as possible to the right until it perceptibly clicks
into place.
4. Check that it is properly secured by gently pulling on the expiratory valve.
5. Close the flap.
The expiratory valve can be reused as long as the test step in the system test is
passed. Exchange the expiratory valve if signs of wear become visible, such as
cracks in the plastic parts, deformation and hardening of the rubber parts.
Discolorations of the metal insert do not impair its function.
