NOTE: The Incubator 8000 NC features an unrestricted
oxygen input port. In order to restrict flow to limit oxygen
concentrations, use external oxygen limiter.
If an oxygen limiter is used:
Connect oxygen limiter between O
incubator port.
Attach O analyzer to rail with appropriate clamp
2
adapter
Place O sensor in incubator.

Use U-grommets to route sensor cable through
incubator hood and connect sensor to analyzer.
WARNING !
Oxygen Concentration
It is absolutely essential that elevated oxygen
concentrations are selected on the basis of
arterially measured oxygen partial pressure in
the blood of the baby. This is the only way to
minimize the risk of both hyperoxemia, which
might cause, above all, retrolenta fibroplasia,
and hypoxemia which might contribute to
intraventricular hemorrhage and damage to
the baby's brain.
