Maintenance
If the vaporizer is filled or partly filled with an incorrect volatile agent or
other contaminant, proceed as follows:
1.
Remove the vaporizer from service immediately and label the va-
porizer stating that it is contaminated.
Return the vaporizer to the Datex-Ohmeda Authorized Service
Center stating that the vaporizer is contaminated and, if possible,
the type of contaminant in the vaporizer.
Connect the Tec 6 Plus to Anesthesia Machine.
1 .
Set the oxygen output of the anesthesia machine to a flow of 5 +
0.5 L/min.
Ensure that the fresh gas output is connected to a gas scavenging
system.
Measure the concentration at the fresh gas outlet, using an agent
monitor which is calibrated to measure desflurane.
Allow the readings to stabilize and check that the readings are
within specified tolerances.
Document and maintain the test results, including the date, person
performing the test, and serial number of the unit tested.
The accuracy of the measuring equipment must be considered
when obtaining the readings!
