6.6 Verifying the Pressure

WARNING: If the device fails to perform within the stated specifications, have the system serviced by a qualified
Philips Respironics-approved service facility.
If part of your patient setup procedure is to verify actual pressure with a manometer, please use the following
instructions to ensure that the device is functioning properly. You will need the following equipment to verify the
pressure (see figure):
• Philips Respironics Pressure Calibration Kit
Kit Includes:
• Philips Respironics Whisper Swivel II
• Philips Respironics O
• Closed end cap
• Philips Respironics flexible tubing
• Pressure tubing
• Philips Respironics Digital Manometer
Minimum Specifications:
• 0 - 25 cm H O (or better)
2
• ± 0.3 cm H O accuracy
2
• ± 0.1 cm H O resolution
2
• Foam filter (not shown)
To verify the pressure, complete the following steps:
1. Install the foam filter into the back of the device.
2. With the device unplugged, connect the system as illustrated in the diagram.
3. Turn the manometer on. If it does not display a reading of zero, adjust the manometer to calibrate it. If the
manometer has variable settings for devices, set it to cm H
4. Supply power to the device then place the device in provider mode.
5. Set the therapy parameters according to the patient specific data.
6. Set the device to the specific pressure value for the patient.
7. Verify that the pressure setting matches the pressure displayed on the manometer. If the pressure setting does not
match the measured value for the device, contact Philips Respironics or an authorized service center to have the
device serviced.
Note: Output pressures may vary at local altitude and barometric pressure. Because of these factors, devices may
slightly vary in output pressure over the range of the altitude settings.
8. Set up the remaining parameters and exit provider mode. The unit is ready for patient use.
