    The SOMNOaqua humidifier is an optional accessory for the Weinmann SOMNOcomfort 2e therapy unit. The SOMNOaqua humidifier is used to heat the air flow created by the SOMNOcomfort 2e and to increase its humidity. This will prevent the patient's upper airways drying out during the therapy.
  • Page 9: Functional Description Somnocomfort 2E

    1.3 Functional description SOMNOcomfort 2e SOMNOcomfort 2e operates according to the principle of an electrically driven flow gen- erator, with the pressure level being controlled electronically. • A fan draws in ambient air via a filter and conveys it to the unit outlet.
  • Page 10: Somnoaqua

    The amount of humidity released can be adjusted using the buttons on the Weinmann therapy unit. The output of the heater rods and consequent- ly the temperature of the water in the humidifier chamber is controlled electronically by the Weinmann unit.
  • Page 11: Safety Instructions

    Maintain a safe distance between the SOMNOcomfort 2e and equip- ment that emits HF radiation (e.g. mobile phones). This unit may other- wise malfunction (see page 42). If the SOMNOcomfort 2e interferes with other devices (e.g. a radio), move the SOMNOcomfort 2e further away.
  • Page 12 Transport/Accessories/Spare Parts/Repair Caution! • Do not transport (or tilt) the SOMNOcomfort 2e with the humidifier in- stalled. Tilting might cause water remaining in the humidifier to run into the SOMNOcomfort 2e and damage it. • Only have checks and repair work carried out by Weinmann or specialist staff.

  • Page 16: Fitting The Mask

    Note • The device automatically compensates for differences in air pressure (e.g. as a result of great altitude). 3.2 Fitting the mask Adjust the forehead support of the mask (if present). Connect the headgear to the mask. Position the mask. Adjust the headgear so that the bulge of the mask only results in low pressure to prevent pressure points on the face.
  • Page 17 Open the filling cap of the humidifier. Fill the humidifier up to the mark "max " with distilled water. If no distilled water is available, low calcium boiled water can be used instead (but not as a rule!). Check that the heater rod does not scale up (see “5.4 Des- caling the SOMNOaqua”...

    This application must be prescribed by the doctor in charge. To prevent oxygen entering the therapy unit, the SOMNOcomfort 2e automatically gener- ates a therapy pressure of at least 5 hPa when an oxygen connection valve is attached. You must under all circumstances follow the safety instructions for handling oxygen as well as the operating instructions for the oxygen valve and the oxygen unit used.
