Preparing the expiratory valve

WARNING
Risk of patient injury
Expiratory valves that are damp or have not
been reprocessed can impair the operation of
the device and endanger the patient.
Only use properly reprocessed expiratory
valves which have been sufficiently dried.
CAUTION
High airway pressures and auto-triggering
If the water trap container on the expiratory valve
is missing, there is a danger of excessively high
airway pressures and auto-triggering due to leak-
age overcompensation.
Always attach the water trap container.

1 Fit the diaphragm (A) onto the edge of the
expiratory valve housing.
