Preparing and removing the flow sensor
WARNING
Risk of fire
The measuring wires of the neonatal flow
sensors become very hot and may ignite
deposits of medication aerosols during
nebulization.
– Before medication nebulization, remove
the complete ISO 15 neonatal flow sensor,
or remove the sensor insert from the
neonatal flow sensor Y-piece and insert a
sealing plug.
– Use additional monitoring since otherwise
the minute volume is not monitored and
apnea monitoring is limited.
The flow sensor must be removed from the
breathing circuit before medication nebulization.
The flow sensor must be replaced or reprocessed
if there is visible soiling.
Deactivating flow monitoring
1 Remove the plug (A) of the flow sensor cable
from the flow sensor (B).
2 Acknowledge the alarm message by pressing
the OK key.
