Description General The D-Tec Vaporizer is designed to add Suprane™ (desflurane) inhalant anesthetic vapor to the medical gases supplied to a patient. The vaporizer must only be mounted on a Dräger compatible anesthesia machine which is equipped with an interlocking type manifold. The vaporizer must be supplied with dry medical gas and it must be connected to a suitable electrical mains supply.

Warning: The performance of the anesthetic machine and vaporizer may be degraded if the machine and vaporizer are mismatched. Warning: Do not install a D-Tec vaporizer in the right hand position of a Narkomed 6000 as this will result in an incorrect fit and may cause leaks in the fresh gas delivery system.
2.2.1 Power Supply Unit The D-Tec Vaporizer uses a 100 to 120V a.c. 50/60 Hz electrical supply model. A label on the rear panel of the vaporizer states the voltage requirement for each model. The integral power supply unit consists of a transformer and an a.c. to d.c. converter which provides the 12V d.c.
If the vaporizer is tilted for 10-15 seconds while it is in operational mode and delivering vapor, vapor delivery will be stopped, as indicated by the flashing No Output light and auditory alarm. D-Tec Vaporizer Page 5 O & M Manual Part No. 1107-0622-000...

Warning: The battery terminals must be firmly clipped onto the battery to help prevent a possible disconnection when the vaporizer is moved. Warning: Only a Datex-Ohmeda mains lead must be used to connect the vaporizer to the electrical supply. Warning: When routing the mains lead to the electrical supply, ensure that it does not interfere with the correct functioning of other equipment.
Remove the mains lead retaining plate illustrated on Fig. 11 and fit the Datex-Ohmeda mains lead firmly into the socket of the vaporizer. Feed the mains lead into the mains lead channel and then clip the mains lead retaining plate back into the base.
Fitting the equi-potential lead e.g. for intracardiac • Fit one end of the lead to the equi-potential stud on the D-Tec. • Route and connect the other end of the lead to a central ground stud, as described in the relevant anesthesia machine Operation and Maintenance Manual.
When the alarm and light are activated, turn the dial to the q setting, reconnect the mains lead and check that the alarm and display test is activated. When the green OPERATIONAL light illuminates, continue operation. Page 12 D-Tec Vaporizer August 2001 O & M Manual Part No. 1107-0622-000...
Warning: High % dial settings combined with low gas flows may lead to hypoxic mixtures within the breathing circuit. Datex-Ohmeda strongly recommends the use of oxygen monitoring. Warning: The dial release must be operated to turn the dial from the q q q q q setting and also to increase the dial setting to above 12%.
The D-Tec Vaporizer must only be filled when it is in an upright position. The vaporizer sump can be filled when the vaporizer is in its WARM-UP cycle, or at any time the vaporizer is in use. If the vaporizer is in its OPERATIONAL condition, the time taken for the agent to flow into the vaporizer may be increased.
10. To avoid dropping the bottle, support the bottle as it is automatically unlocked from the filler port and released from the filler. 11. The valve on the bottle automatically closes to help avoid loss of agent. D-Tec Vaporizer Page 15 O & M Manual Part No. 1107-0622-000...
Maintenance All D-Tec Vaporizers require a full service at the recommended service interval. The vaporizer must be serviced at a Datex-Ohmeda Authorized Service Center. Refer to Section 11.0 Servicing Policy. Cleaning Warning: Do not put any substance other than Suprane™ (desflurane) into the vaporizer sump.
