Service And Support - Nonin 8600V Operator's Manual

Service and Support

CAUTION! 8600V Pulse Oximeters are sensitive and must be repaired by trained NONIN personnel only.
Any evidence of opening the system, field repair by non-NONIN personnel, tampering, or any
kind of misuse of the system will void the warranty entirely.
The solid state circuitry within the 8600V Pulse Oximeter requires no periodic maintenance or calibration. The internal
battery pack will provide maintenance-free operation for up to 5 years and may be replaced by NONIN if necessary.
NONIN does not recommend field repair of the 8600V Pulse Oximeter. If opening the case is necessary, special precautions are
required. To prevent damage, remove the four screws on the bottom of the 8600V using a screwdriver. Next, remove
the four rubber feet. While gently pulling on the back of the cover, use a flat blade screwdriver to release the plastic
catches. Failure to release the plastic catches when opening the case will damage the case.
The circuit board in the 8600V is a multi-layer board using traces 0.01" wide. Due to the very small trace size, extreme
care must be used when replacing components to prevent permanent non-repairable damage to the circuit board. Most
components are surface-mounted and require special hot air jet soldering and desoldering equipment. After any repairs
are made, the pulse oximeter must be tested to ensure correct operation.
NOTE:
All repair work on the 8600V Pulse Oximeter should be done by trained NONIN personnel. For NONIN
