4.1.3. Connecting the Gas Supply
1.
Connect the gas supply hose to the gas supply input (T) in
Figure 02 of the e700.
2. Connect the other end of the hose to the pressure outlet of the
pressure regulator or wall outlet of piped medical oxygen system.
3. Turn cylinder valve slowly and fully.
Extra care must be taken when handling oxygen:
•
The e700 must only be used with medical oxygen.
•
Only use approved medical oxygen compressed gas cylinders.
•
Always begin use with a full oxygen cylinder.
•
Secure oxygen cylinders so they do not fall over.
•
Keep away from excessive heat to avoid the risk of explosion.
•
Do not grease or lubricate oxygen fi ttings, cylinder valves and
pressure reducers, and do not handle with greasy hands to
avoid the risk of fi re.
•
Only open or close cylinder valves by hand or with the correct
cylinder wrench. Open the cylinder valve slowly, at least two full
turns, counter clockwise. Do not use any other tools.
•
Do not smoke or work in areas where open fl ames are present.
Oxygen supports combustion and exacerbates fi res.
•
Only use a pressure reducer with an overpressure relief valve to
limit the delivery pressure in case of a regulator failure!
•
To avoid ventilator malfunction do not attach the ventilator to
a fl ow control valve or fl ow meter.
