1.1.1 Dangers
There are no dangers that refer to the product in general. Specific “Danger” statements may
be given in the respective sections of this manual.
1.1.2 Warnings
WARNING
z The ventilator must only be operated and used by authorized medical personnel
well trained in the use of this product. It must be operated strictly following the
Operator’s Manual.
z Before putting the system into operation, the operator must verify that the
equipment, connecting cables and accessories are in correct working order and
operating condition.
z The equipment must be connected to a properly installed power outlet with
protective earth contacts only. If the installation does not provide for a protective
earth conductor, disconnect it from the power line.
z Use AC power source before the batteries are depleted.
z To avoid explosion hazard, do not use the equipment in the presence of flammable
anesthetic agent, vapors or liquids.
z Do not place the ventilator adjacent to any barrier, which can prevent cold air
from flowing, resulting in equipment overheat.
z Do not open the equipment housings. All servicing and future upgrades must be
carried out by the personnel trained and authorized by us only.
z Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring.
Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level may result in a hazard to the patient.
Remember that alarm settings should be customized according to different patient
situations and always keeping the patient under close surveillance is the most
reliable way for safe patient monitoring.
z The physiological parameters and alarm messages displayed on the screen of the
equipment are for doctor’s reference only and cannot be directly used as the basis
for clinical treatment.
z Dispose of the package material, observing the applicable waste control regulations
andkeeping it out of children’s reach.
z All staff should be aware that disassembling or cleaning some parts of the
ventilator can cause risk of infection.
z Maintenance mode should be used only when the equipment is not connected to a
patient.
1-2
WARNING
z Positive pressure breathing may be accompanied by some side effects such as
barotrauma, hypoventilation, hyperventilation etc.
z Using the ventilator in the vicinity of high-frequency electrosurgery units,
defibrillators or short-wave therapy equipment may impair correct functioning of
the ventilator and endanger the patient.
z Do not use antistatic or conductive masks or breathing hoses. They can cause burns
if they are used near high frequency electrosurgical equipment.
z Do not use the ventilator in a hyperbaric chamber to avoid potential fire hazard
due to an oxygen-enriched environment.
z If the equipment internal monitoring system malfunctions, an alternative plan
must be available to ensure adequate level of monitoring. The operator of the
ventilator must be responsible for proper patient ventilation and safety under all
circumstances.
z As required by the relevant rules and regulations, oxygen concentration should be
monitored when the equipment is used on the patient. If your ventilator is not
configured with such monitoring function or this function is turned off, use a
monitor which complies with the relevant international rules and regulations for
oxygen concentration monitoring.
z When auxiliary electrical outlets are configured, the voltage and current
specifications of the devices connected to the electrical outlets must be within the
permissible ranges for those of the electrical outlets. When the protection
grounding is defective, connection of equipment to the auxiliary electrical outlet
may increase the patient leakage current to values exceeding the allowable limits.
z When the auxiliary electrical outlet does not work normally, check if the
corresponding fuse is burned.
z All analog or digital products connected to this system must be certified passing the
specified IEC standards (such as IEC 60950 for data processing equipment and
IEC 60601-1 for medical electrical equipment). All configurations shall comply
with the valid version of IEC 60601-1-1. The personnel who are responsible for

z Make sure that the ventilator altituide is set up correctly. Improper altituide setup
may affect tidal volume measurement accuracy. After modifying the altituide
setting value, perform flow calibration (factory) again.
z Make sure to remove the O2 sensor plug before installing the O2 sensor correctly.
1.1.3 Cautions
CAUTION
z The ventilator must be inspected and serviced regularly by trained service
personnel.
z To ensure patient safety, always prepare pulmotor for use.
z Always have a special person attend and monitor the operation of the equipment
once the ventilator is connected to the patient.
z During the operation of the ventilator, do not disassemble the expiration valve and
expiratory flow sensor, which, however, can be disassembled in standby mode.
z To ensure patient safety, use only parts and accessories specified in this manual.
z At the end of its service life, the equipment, as well as its accessories, must be
disposed of in compliance with the guidelines regulating the disposal of such
products.
z Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper
performance of the equipment. For this reason make sure that all external devices
operated in the vicinity of the equipment comply with the relevant EMC
requirements. Mobile phone, X-ray equipment or MRI devices are a possible
source of interference as they may emit higher levels of electromagnetic radiation.
z This system operates correctly at the electrical interference levels identified in this
manual. Higher levels can cause nuisance alarms that may stop mechanical
ventilation. Pay attention to false alarms caused by high-intensity electrical fields.
z Before connecting the equipment to the power line, check that the voltage and
frequency ratings of the power line are the same as those indicated on the
equipment’s label or specified in this manual.

2.1.5 Theory of Operation
The pneumatic system of the ventilator consists of six systems as shown below:
2.1.5.1 Gas Supply Subsystem

The gas supply subsystem is the starting part the ventilator pneumatic circuit. It introduces
the external pipeline supply into the ventilator. To protect the precision solenoid valve and
flow sensor in the flow control module, regulator valve and filter are included in the gas
supply module to process the supplied gas which is of high and unstable pressure and
contains some foreign substances. A pressure switch is configured to monitor the gas supply
pressure and check valve to prevent the gas flow inside the ventilator from going back into
other external gas supplies.
The gas supply subsystem consists of two parallel pneumatic circuits, namely O2 and air, as
shown below:
2-6
There are some structural differences between the components of E5 and E3. The picture
below is from E5:
O2 inlet
O2 filter F1
Air inlet Pressure switch PS1/PS2
Nebulizer control
valve NCV
Air filter F2
O2 regulator REG1
PEEP regulator
REG3
Air regulator
Air/O2 connection
REG2
selection valve SOL3
Notes: as shown in the above picture, some components, such as the air/O2 connection
selection valve SOL3, PEEP regulator REG3, PEEP control air connector , nebulizer control
valve NCV, and nebulizer connector, are not included in the gas flow of the gas supply
subsystem because some of the components are part of other subsystems. For detailed
information, please refer to the ventilator pneumatic circuit diagram.
Meanwhile, it can be seen from the above picture that the filters used for Air and O2 branches
are both manual drainage filters. But they differ in the appearance. The size of the air filter is
greater and the material of its base is plastic. For Air filter, water is drained at the bottom by
rotating the handle. The material of the base of O2 filter is metal and water is drained by
pushing the filter gas nozzle upward.
2-7
The E3 module differs from the E5 module in that the E3 assembly integrates the gas supply
subsystem and the flow control subsystem. The gas supply subsystem of E3 is the same with
that of E5, while the flow control subsystem is shown below:
PEEP control gas

connector
Nebulization gas
connector
Proportional valve E3
PSOL1/PSOL2
Air outlet (connected with flow sensor Q1)
O2 outlet (connected with flow sensor Q1)

To fulfill the actual requirements, two kinds of connectors are configured for the air and O2
supplies, namely DISS and NIST, with AIR or O2 marks to indicate the supply gas. The
central pipeline leads the supply gas into the ventilator through the air/O2 connector. The
supply gas, with a pressure within the range of 280 - 650 KPa, flows through the filter F2/F1
and gets purified, and then through the check valves CV2/CV1, reaches the front end of the
regulator. Check valves are used to prevent the gas from flowing back. A pressure switch is
connected to the front end of the check valve to ensure that an alarm is triggered when the
pressure is lower than the set value (220 KPa) and stops when the pressure restores to the set
value. Air/O2 regulator is used to reduce the pressure of the supply gas and maintain it to the
set value which for E5 ventilators is 172 KPa, and for E3, 220 KPa. What connects the rear
end of the regulator is the flow control subsystem.
2-8
2.1.5.2 Flow Control Subsystem
The flow control subsystem is mainly used to perform accurate control (by proportional valve)
and monitoring (by inspiratory flow sensor) over the inspiratory flow and O2 concentration.
Corresponding with the gas supply subsystem, the flow control subsystem also has two
parallel branches: air and O2. The subsystem diagram is shown below:
F3 Q1
PSOL1

The structure of the flow control subsystem of E5 ventilators are shown below:

2-9
The flow control subsystem of E3 ventilators, as described previously, differs from that of E5
ventilators in the proportional valves of different types (PSOL1/PAOL2), which affects the
flow speed of corresponding gas limb. For E3 ventilators, the maximum limb peak flow
should be over 120 L/Min, and the stable flow speed should be over 100 L/Min, while for E5
ventilators, over 180 L/Min and 150 L/Min respectively. The E5 and E3 models share the
same filter screens (F3/F4), air flow sensors, and O2 flow sensors.
When the ventilator is working, the gas, after passing the gas supply subsystem, is under a
pressure of corresponding set value. It flows through the air/O2 inlet of the flow control
subsystem and enters the flow control submodule. Then the system opens the proportional
valves PSOL1 and PSOL2, and the gas flows through the filter screen and reaches the flow
sensors Q1 and Q2 of various limbs which measures the flow speeds in the limbs. The
pressure of the gas from the flow sensor is close to the air pressure. Then the gas goes into
the safety valve subsystem, where air and O2 are mixed.
2.1.5.3 Safety Valve Subsystem

The safety valve subsystem is mainly used to monitor the inspiratory pressure and ensure that
the pressure in the inspiratory limb is within the safe range. It also measures the amount of O2
in the inspiratory gas and maintains spontaneous inspiration when the system is powered off.
Below is a diagram of the safety valve subsystem:

The figure below shows the components of the safety valve subsystem. Flowing out from the
flow control subsystem, the air and O2 go through the flow sensor and the safety valve
connector, and enter the safety valve subsystem. Then the air and O2 first flow through the
muffler and get mixed, and then the mixed gas enters two limbs: one connected with the 110
cmH2O relief valve which opens to release gas when the inner pressure is over 110 cmH2O;
and the other, as a main limb, leads the gas into the reservoir where an Oxygen cell is
installed to monitor the O2 concentration of the output gas. At the front end of the reservoir,
there is an electromagnet, a check valve ar spontaneous inspiratory port, and a 10 cmH2O
relief valve. At the front end of the reservoir, there is an electromagnet, a check valve ar
spontaneous inspiratory port, and a 10 cmH2O relief valve. The electromagnet is used to
actively release pressure. When the pressure inside the ventilator reaches a set value, the
electromagnet opens and the gas is released through the 10 cmH2O relief valve. It also
ensures a pressure of over 10 cmH2O inside the ventilator. When the ventilator is powered off,
the electromagnet valve core restores to normal position under gravitation, the safety valve
opens, and the patient breathes spontaneously. When an inspiration is made, negative
pressure is generated in the safety valve subsystem and makes the check valve at the
spontaneous inspiration inlet open to the inner side, leading the gas into the safety valve
subsystem and then through the gas reservoir into the patient's lungs, and thus completing an
inspiration process.
The safety valve subsystem external port is the outlet of the gas reservoir. This connector is a
coaxial 22 mm conical connector, complying with ISO 5356-2:1987.
2-11
2.1.5.4 Nebulizer Control Subsystem
The nebulizer control system is mainly used to control the nebulized gas flow by the
nebulizer control valve, and thus realizing the control over the nebulizer. The pneumatic
scheme of the nebulizer control system is as shown below:
NCV
R1
The picture below shows the structure of the components:

The above picture shows the structure of nebulizer control valve NCV and nebulizer channel
connector of E5 gas supply subsystem (similar to E3 module). The NCV is a two-way
solenoid valve. The nebulizer channel connector is connected to the Φ6 PU hose in which a
nebulizer resistor R1 is connected. The front end of the R1 resistor is connected with the
rear-end gas through the air/O2 selection valve SOL3, and the rear end is connected to the
nebulizer nozzle with the Φ6 PU hose. The picture below shows the structure of the
inspiration module of E5 ventilators:
Nebulizer resistor
Nebulizer nozzle
The metal connector of the nebulizer nozzle is outside the main unit of the ventilator. When
the ventilator works well and the nozzle is connected to the nebulizer with corresponding
hoses, the system opens the nebulizer control valve NCV to release the gas through nebulizer
resistor R1 and into the nebulizer for nebulization. The nebulized flow should be within the
range of 6 - 9 L/Min.
2-13
2.1.5.5 Expiration Assembly
The expiration module is mainly used to realize pressure control and monitoring, and flow
monitoring. It differs with the inspiration module in that the gas that passes through it is the
expiratory gas from the patients, which results in the need to clean and disinfect the
components after use. Below is the pneumatic diagram:
The structure of expiration assembly is as shown below:

PEEP proportional valve
The gas inlet of expiration module is a coaxial 22 mm conical connector, complying with ISO
5356-2:1987. The patient end is connected to the expiration module with patient hose. When
the ventilator is running, the expiratory gas flows through the hoses and enters the expiration
module (plastic). At the entrance of the expiration module, there is a water trap used to
collect condensed water in the hoses and expiration valve. The check valve in the water trap,
when the water trap is installed, opens to lead the condensed water into the water trap. When
the collected water reaches a certain amount, the water trap should be removed from the
ventilator (which closes the check valve to avoid gas leakage) and drained to avoid airway
blockage.
When the expiratory gas enters the expiration valve, the system changes the PEEP value in
the PEEP proportional valve to a set level, which makes the PEEP valve control gas to flow
through the muffler and then out of the ventilator through the PEEP control gas outlet. As the
PEEP control gas is from the inspiration module and thus clean and uncontaminated, it does
not need any further cleaning or disinfection.
The expiratory gas passes the expiration valve and enters the expiratory flow sensor Q3, a
diaphragm flow sensor which, with the pressure sampling point, introduces the pressure
difference between the front and rear end into the pressure difference sensor PQ3.
2-15
Due to the need for disinfection (steam autoclavable at maximum 134 ℃), the expiration
valve and expiratory flow sensor are designed to be easy for removal and re-installation. In
normal use, the expiration valve is fixed to the expiration assembly by expiration valve lock,
and when you need to disinfect it, the lock can be easily unlocked for you to take the
expiration valve and the expiratory flow sensor off.
A heater and temperature sensor, controlled by the system, are located at the upper end of the
expiration valve housing to prevent the vapor from being condensed in the expiration valve
and expiratory flow sensor Q3. An expiration pressure flushing limb in which the flow is
maintained at 60 ml/min is also added to prevent the vapor in the expiratory gas from being
condensed in the pressure monitoring hoses and affecting the monitoring of expiratory gas
pressure.
2.1.5.6 Patient Hose

Patient hoses constitute the peripheral pneumatic circuit of the circuit and are independent
from the ventilator main unit. Patient hoses can be configured as needed. They function to
connect the ventilator and the patient and to humidify the patient’s inhaled gas. The
pneumatic scheme is as shown below.
F5 Humidifier
WT
Nebulizer
Patient
F6
WT
There are two kinds of patient hoses: disposable and reusable. Generally, disposable hoses
integrate hoses, water traps, and Y pieces etc. are made of medical-grade PVC materials.
They are of low cost and are discarded after use. Reusable hoses, typically, are made of
silicone which can be autoclaved for many times. The water traps and Y pieces can also be
autoclaved. Despite the high cost, reusable hoses reduce clinical cost since they can be used
for many times.

Please refer to7.2Electrical Connections.
2.2.2 Auxiliary Output Assembly

In practical application, the ventilator is generally used with humidifier, air compressor, and
nebulizer. A power supply scheme is adopted to keep the connection compact and in order, as
shown below. The auxiliary output assembly distributes the AC power input and supply
power for other equipments through three auxiliary output outlets. It is connected to the
ventilator with a relatively short power cord.

2.2.3.3 Power Module

The power module consists of AC-DC power board and DC-DC power board. The power
module AC-DC power board switches the AC power input into DC voltage and transmits to
the DC power board which then switches the voltage into several DC voltages that meet the
requirements of the ventilator. The DC-DC power board can perform power on/off control,
and AC/battery indicator drive functions. Additional, a battery charging board is configured
on the DC-DC power board to provide charging and management of lithium batteries. The
AC-DC power board and DC-DC power board can also protect the main voltages from
overpressure and overcurrent.

the tests.
4.3.2 Check the Mechanical Ventilation Mode
NOTE
z The main function of the ventilator is to provide breathing support--mechanical
ventilation which complies with the doctor’s settings to the patient. The tests in this
section are performed aiming to ensure that the machine is able to provide normal
mechanical ventilation.
z The tests can help to judge if the ventilator operates normally.
The tests are mainly checking the consistence between measurements made by the ventilator
and the set value, the working status of the ventilator, and the alarms so as to determine if this
ventilator operates normally.
4-23
4.3.2.1 Check Volume Control Ventilation (VCV)
This test is mainly checking if the ventilator can provide volume control ventilation,
including check on the control, feedback, and measurement of tidal volume, as well as correct
ventilation alarms.
To check VCV:
1. Make sure that the supply pressure is normal and that the tubes in the breathing circuit
are correctly connected as required for mechanical ventilation. Connect a 2 L bag, which
is used as the test lung, to the Y piece in the patient circuit.
2. Select V-A/C as the ventilation mode.
3. Set the following combinations of TV (tidal volume) and Rate respectively: (150 ml, 15
BPM), (300 ml, 12 BPM), (600 ml, 15 BPM), and (900 ml, 15 BPM). Set others to the
defaults. Record the TVi reading in each setting stablized status.
4. Judge if the above measured data meet the following conditions:
TV control and measurement are normal: the difference between the TVi reading
and set value does not exceed 10% or 10 ml, whichever is greater.
No other ventilation failure occurs: the pressure and flow waveforms are displayed
normally and no technical alarms occur.
If the above test requirements are not met, perform subsequent checks and do the test again.
NOTE
z If any errors are detected during volume control ventilation test, perform
troubleshooting as per 5Troubleshooting, and do the test again until the system is
normal.
4.3.2.2 Check Pressure Control Ventilation (PCV)

This test is mainly checking if the ventilator can provide pressure control ventilation,
including check on the control, feedback, and measurement of pressure, as well as correct
ventilation alarms.
To check PCV:
1. Make sure that the supply pressure is normal and that the tubes in the breathing circuit
are correctly connected as required for mechanical ventilation. Connect a 2 L bag, which
is used as the test lung, to the Y piece in the patient circuit.
2. Select P-A/C as the ventilation mode.
3. Set the following combinations of Pinsp, Rate and PEEP respectively: (10 cmH2O, 15
BPM, OFF), (15 cmH2O, 12 BPM, 5 cmH2O), (20 cmH2O, 10 BPM, 8 cmH2O). Set
others to the defaults. Record the displayed Peak and PEEP values in each setting
stabilized status.
4-24
4. Judge if the above measured data meet the following conditions:
Pressure control and measurement are normal: the difference between the displayed
Peak value and the set Pinsp value does not exceed 2 cm H2O or 10% of the set
value, whichever is greater; the difference between the displayed PEEP value and
the set value does not exceed 2 cm H2O or 10% of the set value, whichever is
greater.
No other ventilation failure occurs: the pressure and flow waveforms are displayed
normally and no technical alarms occur.
If the above test requirements are not met, perform subsequent checks and do the test again.
NOTE
z If any errors are detected during pressure control ventilation test, perform
troubleshooting as per 5Troubleshooting, and do the test again until the system is
normal.
4.3.3 Check the Sensor Zero Point
NOTE
z If the zero point of the pressure sensor has an error, in ventilation status when
PEEP is set to 0, the baseline of the pressure waveform is not at the zero point.
z If the zero point of the inspiratory/expiratory flow sensor has an error, in
ventilation status, the baseline of the flow waveform is not at the zero point.
z If the zero point A/D value of any sensor is outside of the normal range, and if it
can not be corrected, the monitor board must be replaced.
z The zero point A/D value of the PEEP pressure sensor and expiratory pressure
sensor should fall within the normal range of 920 to 2000.
z The zero point A/D value of the inspiratory pressure sensor should fall within the
normal range of 920 to 2000.
z The zero point A/D value of the expiratory flow sensor should fall within the
normal range of 100 to 1300.
z The zero point A/D value of the air/O2 flow sensor should fall within the normal
range of -0.5 to 1 L/min.
The test is to check if the zero points of all the flow sensors and pressure sensors inside the
ventilator are within normal range so as to determine whether to zero the sensors or replace
the monitoring board.
4-25
To check the sensor zero point:
1. Turn off all fresh gases and position the Y piece connector in the patient circuit to the
air.
2. Make sure that the system is Standby. Select [Main Menu] → [Maintain] → [Service]
→ [A/D Channel]. Select [VCM] and [VPM] respectively. Check the actual values of
flow and pressure sensors.
3. Make sure that the actual measured value of each sensor is close to “0” (zero). If the
measured value of any sensor is larger than 0.5, you need to calibrate the sensor. Record
the zero point A/D value of each sensor and judge if the zero point falls within the
normal range. If not, calibrate the corresponding sensor. For details about calibration,
please refer to 4.4.5 Pressure and Flow Zeroing.
4.3.4 Check the Flow Sensor Accuracy
NOTE
z If a great deviation of TV measured value occurs, test the measurement accuracy
of expiratory flow sensors so as to determine whether to perform flow calibration
again. This test can also validate the effectiveness of flow calibration.
This test is mainly checking the consistency of measurement among the internal flow sensors
and the accuracy of measurement of each flow sensor, as well as validating the effectiveness
of flow calibration.
To check the measurement accuracy of flow sensors:
1. Connect the inspiration/expiration connectors with breathing tubes, as shown below:
Gas flow
Insp. port
Exp. port direction
Hose
4-26
2. In standby mode, select [Main Menu] → [Maintain] → [Service] → [Diagnosis] to
access the [Valve Test] menu.
3. Increase the value of air inspiration valve, causing the measured open valve flow to fall
within the following ranges respectively: (3 ± 0.5) L/min, (10 ± 1) L/min, (20 ± 1)
L/min, (30 ± 2) L/min, (60 ± 3) L/min. Record the measured flow values of the air
inspiratory flow sensor and expiratory sensor in each setting stabilized status. Make sure
that the deviation between the measured data of the air expiratory flow sensor and
inspiratory flow sensor and that of the calibration device must not exceed max (0.5 lpm,
±5%); and that the deviation between the measured value of inspiration valve and that of
the air flow sensor must not exceed max (2 lpm, ±20%).
4. Check the O2 inspiration valve, O2 flow sensor, and expiratory flow sensor as instructed
above, and make sure that the deviations fulfills the accuracy requirements.
5. If any of the sensors fails the test, perform flow calibration again as per 4.4.2 Flow
Calibration (Factory). If calibration fails, replace the corresponding sensor.
4.3.5 Check the Pressure Sensor Accuracy
NOTE
z If a great deviation of pressure measured value occurs, test the measurement
correctness of pressure sensors so as to determine whether to perform pressure
calibration again. This test can also validate the effectiveness of pressure
calibration.
This test is mainly checking the consistency of measurement among the internal pressure
sensors and the correctness of measurement of each pressure sensor, as well as validating the
effectiveness of pressure calibration.
4-27
To check the measurement correctness of pressure sensors:
1. Make sure that the pressure sampling line and calibration devices (or other pressure
measurement devices) are connected in parallel, as shown below:

2. In standby mode, select [Main Menu] → [Maintain] → [Service] → [Diagnosis] to

access the [Valve Test] menu.
3. Set the open valve flow of inspiration valve to 10 L/min.
4. Increase the pressure of inspiration valve, causing the measured value of the close valve
pressure of inspiration valve to fall within the following ranges respectively: (5 ± 1) cm
H2O, (20 ± 1) cm H2O, (50 ± 1) cm H2O, (70 ± 2) cm H2O, (90 ± 2) cm H2O. Record
the measured pressure values of the calibration devices, expiratory pressure sensor and
inspiratory pressure sensor to which each setting corresponds respectively.
5. Make sure that the deviation between the measured data of the expiratory pressure
sensor and inspiratory pressure sensor and that of the calibration devices must not
exceed max (1cmH2O, ±2%); and that the deviation between the measured value of the
expiration valve and that of the calibration device must not exceed max (5cmH2O,
±20%). If not, perform calibration again as per 4.4.6 Pressure Calibration (Factory)
and 0

replace the corresponding sensor.
6. On condition that the above requirements are satisfied, make sure that the above groups
of measured data shall satisfy this: the deviation between the measured value of the
expiration valve (or inspiratory/expiratory pressure sensors) and that of the calibration
device shall not exceed max (5cmH2O, ±20%). Otherwise, calibrate the sensor again
as per 0

4.4 System Calibration

NOTE
z Perform the corresponding calibration if any of the system tests described in 4.3
System Test is failed.
z After replacing the monitor board, valve assemblies, or sensors, perform the
corresponding calibration as described in this chapter.
The ventilator provides the function of monitoring flow, pressure, volume, and inspiratory
oxygen concentration etc. When these measured values have great deviations, it is very likely
that measurement offset occurs to the relevant measurement parts. In this case, you need to
perform calibration again. After equipment service, such as replacing the monitor board,
valve assemblies, or sensors, you need to calibrate the flow or pressure sensors.
The following table lists the possible calibration items and calibration time:

4.4.1 Flow Calibration (User)
NOTE
z The measurements performed by the flow sensors may be affected by the
environment where the sensors are used. After the sensors have been used for a
long time, great deviations may occur to the measurement results and tidal volume
control as well. This problem can be fixed through flow sensor calibration.
z Calibrate flow sensors again after replacing sensors.
z Before calibration, perform leak test of the system first and make sure that the test
is passed and there is no leakage in the hoses.
z During calibration, make sure that both the air and O2 supplies are connected with
sufficient gas supply. Failure to do so may lead to calibration failure.
z It is recommended not to connect the humidifier to the ventilator before the
calibration.
This calibration is intended to calibrate the expiratory flow sensor, air inspiratory sensor, and
O2 inspiratory sensor through the air inspiratory flow sensor and O2 inspiratory flow sensor
of the ventilator.
After the flow sensors have been used for several months, for example, three months after
calibration, great deviations (more than 10% compared with the setting value) may occur to
tidal volume measurement due to sensor aging or environmental factors. Or, the user replaces
flow sensors. In this case, you need to re-calibrate flow sensors. You can perform user flow
calibration as described below:
1. Select [Main Menu] → [Calibrate] to access the [Calibrate] menu. Then select
[Flow];
2. Connect the hoses and insert the Y piece into the leak test plug to close the breathing
circuit;
3. Press the [Calibrate] button to start user flow calibration.
4-32
NOTE
z If measurement deviations are not corrected after multiple flow sensor
calibrations, the user is recommended to replace the flow sensor and then perform
calibration. If the problem persists, factory maintenance is necessary. After the
problem is fixed, perform calibration and system test.
4.4.2 Flow Calibration (Factory)
NOTE
z Factory flow calibration is necessary in case of replacing the monitor board,
inspiratory or expiratory interface board, flow sensor, or valve assemblies.
z When a great deviation is detected between the measured value of the expiratory
flow sensor, inspiratory flow sensor, and inspiration valve and that of the
calibration device, you need to perform factory flow calibration.
z When the altitude of the ventilator changes, change the altitude setting value in the
factory setup menu and then perform flow calibration (factory).

This calibration is intended to calibrate the expiratory flow sensor, air inspiratory sensor, and
O2 inspiratory sensor through the air inspiratory flow sensor and O2 inspiratory flow sensor
of the ventilator.
4.4.2.1 Calibration Procedures
NOTE
z Before calibration, perform leak test of the system first and make sure that the test
is passed and there is no leakage in the hoses.
z Before calibration, make sure that no sensor, valve, or limb related technical
alarms occurred.
z During calibration, make sure that both the air and O2 supplies are connected with
sufficient gas supply. Failure to do so may lead to calibration failure.
z Do not move or press the tubes during calibration.
To perform factory flow calibration:

1. Select [Main Menu] → [Maintain] → [Service], and enter the required service
password to access the [Service] menu. Select [Calibration] and then [Flow];
2. Connect sufficient air and O2 supplies (pipeline Air and O2 supplies are required for
factory calibration);
3. Connect the breathing hoses and insert the Y piece into the leak test plug;
4-33
4. Press the [Calibrate] button to start factory flow calibration.
NOTE
z After flow calibration, check the measurement accuracy of the flow sensors as per
4.3.4Check the Flow Sensor Accuracy.
z In case of calibration failure, first fix the problem and then perform calibration
again.

5.3 Pneumatic System Problems
The pneumatic system is mainly composed of gas supply subsystem, flow control subsystem,
safety valve subsystem, and expiration module. This section details possible failures
regarding the pneumatic system and how to troubleshoot them.
5.3.1 Commonly Used Equipment and Tools

The commonly used equipment and tools for troubleshooting pneumatic circuit related
failures are:
1. Commonly used tools such as cross screwdriver, Allen wrench, and ordinary wrench;
2. 1MPa test pressure gauge;
3. Φ4 and Φ6 PU tube, Φ6 silicone tube;
4. Y piece, 4 to 6 and 6 to 6 PU tube adapters (3106-04-06, 3106-06-00), Φ6 tee
(3140-06-00), breathing tube and corresponding tube plug (3126-04-00, 3126-06-00)
etc;
5. Calibration device.

5.3.2.1 Loose DISS/NIST connector at the gas supply inlet, resulting in

leakage
The following picture shows the Air/O2 connector at the gas supply inlet. The head of this
connector (there are DISS and NIST specifications available) connecting the gas supply tube
can rotate freely for 360º in the vertical plane so as to adapt to the directional requirement
for the gas supply tube. Therefore, sealing inside the gas supply connector is not static and
the sealing ring may have the risk of leakage due to abrasion after long term of use.
Because the gas supply tube connected at the front end of this part is the starting part of
ventilator gas supply, and the supplied gas is adequate and is high pressure gas not regulated
by the gas supply inlet assembly, severe leakage can be judged directly through the sound
while subtle leakage cannot be judged through the sound, which, however, doe not affect the
effect of the ventilator and is acceptable.
To confirm leakage, turn off the ventilator, connect the gas supply tubes and connect them
separately to Air/O2 supplies. Rotate the two connectors and listen if there is leaky sound. If
the sound is heard, it indicates leakage. Replacing the module is necessary.
The connections may

have leakage.
5-11
5.3.2.2 Failure of filter cup at Air/O2 supply inlet
The following picture shows the filter cup at Air/O2 supply inlet. For O2 filter cup, pressing
the spring pin drains the water and releasing the spring pin resets automatically. For Air filter
cup, water is drained by rotating the black handle at the bottom. After drainage, rotate the
handle to reset (the handle is in horizontal position when reset and slight deviation is
allowed).
Primarily, there are two possible failures occurring to the filter cup: leakage and drainage
failure. Generally, subtle leakage is not easily detected if not checked and will not affect the
use and performance of the machine. However, if not corrected for a long time, subtle
leakage can cause great leakage. When drainage failure occurs to the filter cup at Air/O2
supply inlet, leakage is usually resulted. Such leakage is generally caused by the failure at the
drainage part and will be very large. And it is easily detected when connecting the gas supply.
Meanwhile, because for air filter cup, the water is drained by rotating the drainage part, if
knob is broken when draining the water, reset failure or drainage failure will be resulted.
To troubleshoot the failure of filter cup getting broken, replace the service part directly.
To troubleshoot the failure of drainage part of the filter cup,
For Air filter cup: if the rotary handle is broken or if horizontal sealing is not possible,
replace the filter cup directly.
For O2 filter cup, if drainage failure occurs at the bottom, judge if the spring pin is
damaged. If yes, replace the filter cup direclty. If the spring pin is able to move freely to
reset, check if there are foreign substances at the bottom. Just clear the foreign substance.
If the problem persists, replace the fitle cup directly.
Drainage spring pin (push Drainage handle (rotate clockwise or

upward, reset automatically) counterclockwise)
5-12
5.3.2.3 Inaccurate ON/OFF value of pressure switch
The ON/OFF value of the pressure switch relates to the gas supply pressure alarm function
and Air/O2 connection selection valve switching function. If the ON/OFF value of the
pressure switch has great deviations, inaccurate functions can be resulted or system
mistrigger can be resulted if the case becomes much worse which will cause system
malfunction and endanger the patient’s life. Therefore, it is necessary to check the ON/OFF
value of the pressure switch.
You need to check the ON/OFF value of the pressure switch in the following typical
situations:
1. Assembly testing in case of production assembling;
2. FQC factory inspection;
3. Equipment service at the customer side (possible drift after long term of use;
4. Ventilator failure, such as frequent failure of Air/O2 connection selection valve,
pressure alarm malfunction (false alarm or no alarm) etc.
The primary tools necessary for checking the ON/OFF value of the pressure switch are:
1. Gas supply (high pressure cylinder with regulator);
2. Flathead screwdriver.
5-13
The following picture shows the pressure switch (some marks such as regulators in Air/O2
limbs, nebulization switch valve, and Air/O2 connection selection valve are given for the
convenience of future description and they may not be used in this section).

5-14
In the above picture, pressure switch in Air limb is on the left side and pressure switch in O2
limb is on the right side. When checking the ON/OFF value of the pressure switch, connect
high pressure cylinders with regulating function. Test the ON/OFF value of the pressure
switch as follows:
1. For pressure switch in Air limb: connect to Air supply alone and adjust the cylinder
regulator. Observe that the supply gas pressure rises slowly from 150 kPa to 250 kPa
through the regulator pressure gauge. During the pressure rise, listen to the pressure
switch carefully. When a click is heard, record the value displayed on the pressure gauge,
which represents the rising pressure ON/OFF value of pressure switch. This value is
required to be 220±10 kPa. If the test value is outside the range, adjust using flathead
screwdriver as shown in the picture. Turning clockwise decreases the ON/OFF value of
pressure switch while turning counterclockwise increases the ON/OFF value of pressure
switch. After completing adjustment of the ON/OFF value, do the test again. Note that
the test after each adjustment must be done at the stage when the pressure rises from low
to high. Do not test in the reverse order. After adjusting the rising pressure ON/OFF
value of pressure switch, you need to confirm the falling pressure alarm value of
pressure switch. Observe the pressure gauge. Adjust the regulator to control the supply
gas pressure to fall slowly from 250 kPa. When a click is heard, record the value
displayed on the pressure gauge, which represents the falling pressure ON/OFF value of
pressure switch. This value is required to be not less than 180 kPa. If the value is outside
the range, the pressure switch is not qualified.
2. For pressure switch in O2 limb, the adjustment method is the same. When adjusting, you
need to close the gas supply in Air limb and remove the high pressure gas through the
filter in Air limb.
During the adjustment described above, if the pressure switch fails to reach the required value
(220±10 kPa for rising pressure ON/OFF value and not less than 180 kPa for falling
pressure ON/OFF value), it indicates that the pressure switch is damaged and the module
needs to be replaced,
5.3.2.4 Inaccurate output pressure of Air/O2 regulator

The regulator in Air/O2 limb functions to reduce the supply gas pressure and stabilize the
effect of supply gas pressure fluctuation upon the rear part. After long term of use, the
ventilator may have the problem of inaccurate output pressure of Air/O2 regulator. Generally,
you need to check the output pressure of Air/O2 regulator in the following cases:
1. Assembly testing in case of production assembling;
2. FQC factory inspection;
3. Equipment service at the customer side;
4. Ventilator failure, such as severe drift of flow control.
5-15
The primary tools necessary for checking and adjusting the output pressure of Air/O2
regulator are:
1. Gas supply of 400 kPa (high pressure cylinder with regulating function);
2. Φ6 PU tube and quick-plug connector;
3. 1 MPa pressure gauge;
4. Ordinary wrench and hexagon wrench.
Refer to the picture in the previous section. The procedures for adjusting the output pressure
at the rear end of the regulator in Air limb are:
1. Connect to the cylinder gas supply and adjust the supply gas pressure to 400±10 kPa.
2. Connect the 1 MPa pressure gauge to the nebulization flow test point using PU tube and
quick-plug connector.
3. Open the nebulization switch valve in the valve test tool of ventilator factory service
mode. Adjust the proportional valve in Air limb to produce flow of approximately 5
L/min.
4. Observe the reading on the pressure gauge. The pressure should be between 220±5 kPa
for E3 and 172±5 kPa for E5. Otherwise, adjust the regulator in Air limb.
5. To adjust the regulator, loosen the hexagon nut facing the regulator using ordinary
wrench. Adjust the plastic screw using proper hexagon wrench. Turning clockwise
increases the pressure while turning counterclockwise decreases the pressure. While
adjusting, observe the reading on the pressure gauge. When the pressure value reaches
the requirement, tighten the hexagon nut. When tightening the hexagon nut, observe the
reading on the pressure gauge. Generally, the pressure falls a bit. In this case, reserve
some margin at the beginning of adjusting pressure.
The procedures for adjusting the output pressure at the rear end of the regulator in O2 limb
are similar to that in Air limb.
5.3.2.5 Failed Air/O2 connection selection valve or nebulization

The Air/O2 connection selection valve functions to ensure normal nebulization and PEEP
control in case of single gas supply.This valve affects multiple ventilation modes and
nebulization function. The nebulization switch valve functions to control the
connection/disconnection of nebulization gas flow, which also affects patient therapy.
5-16
When the Air/O2 connection selection valve is failed, the function of connection selection is
failed. Namely, when there is only O2 supply, nebulization and PEEP control is failed. When
there is only O2 supply, nebulization switch and PEEP value are controlled through the valve
test tool in the factory service mode. If there is no gas flow in nebulization and the PEEP
value is always “0”, it indicates that the function of Air/O2 connection selection is failed. In
this case, there are two ways to solve this problem:
1. Refer to the previous section to confirm that the pressure switch functions normally.
2. If both of the pressure switch function and ON/OFF value are normal, the fault goes to
the Air/O2 connection selection valve. You need to replace the component.
In the precondition that the function of Air/O2 connection selection is normal, connecting Air
or O2 supply alone can judge whether the nebulization function is normal. Control
nebulization switch through the valve test tool in the factory service mode and connect the
nebulization exhaust port to anesthesia calibration device through a PU tube to test if the
nebulization gas flow is normal. To judge whether the nebulization gas flow is normal:
1. The nebulizaton switch valve may be damaged if there is no nebulization gas flow. In
this case, replace the component.
2. Check the nebulization resistor for obstruction or replace the nebulization resistor if the
nebulization gas flow is not abnormal.

The flow control subsystem is the critical part of the ventilator to implement various
ventilation modes. Its composition is relatively simple and it is mainly composed of
proportional valve and inspiratory flow sensor.
5.3.3.1 Proportional valve failure

The type of large flow proportional valve which the E5 ventilator uses is WOODWARD
1350-5102. The possible failures related to this valve are that the leakage exceeds the
requirement when the valve is closed and that the minimum opening flow exceeds the
requirement. Troubleshoot the proportional valve related failures in the following cases:
The leakage exceeds the requirement when the proportional valve is closed: in the valve
test tool of ventilator factory service mode, the DA value of the proportional valve is set
to “0”. The flow measured by the inspiratory flow sensor exceeds the specified
maximum leakage requirement, which is 50 ml/min. If this is detected during unit
assembly, provide proportional valve with great excitation current (DA) and then set DA
value to “0” and “4095” (maximum value). Repeat for multiple times (three times
recommended). Observe again if leakage is normal. Otherwise, replace the proportional
valve. When replacing the proportional valves, note that the two gas channels at the
bottom of the proportional valves cannot be attached with foreign substance and that the
proportional valves cannot collide with each other. The distance between the two
proportional valves cannot be less than 2.5 cm.
The minimum opening flow exceeds the requirement: in the diagnostic mode, the DA
value of proportional valve is adjusted gradually from “0” to greater value. The
minimum opening flow measured by the inspiratory flow sensor exceeds the specified
requirement (such as 2 L/min). Generally, this is caused by the internal failure of
proportional valve. You need to replace the proportional valve. Pay attention to the note
mentioned before when replacing the proportional valve.

5.3.3.2 Inspiratory flow sensor data error
When connecting the calibration device to the inspiratory port to measure the flow of
proportional valve, if the data from the ventilator internal inspiratory flow sensor and that
from the calibration device differ greatly (deviation of more than 5% when the flow is
between 0-120 L/min), troubleshoot as follows:
1. Make sure that the calibration device is within the valid calibration period. If it is out of
calibration, use correct external tool.
2. Check if the filter screen assembly (115-008652-00) at the front end of inspiratory flow
sensor is normal. If not, replace the assembly. Re-do the test and check if the
measurement data are within the allowable error range.
3. If the problem persists, the inspiratory flow sensor may be failed. Troubleshoot this
problem by referring to the section of hardware related failures.

5.3.4 Safety Valve Subsystem
The safety valve subsystem functions to ensure that the pressure of inspiratory limb is within
the safety range, monitor O2 concentration, and support spontaneous breathing.
110 cmH2O pressure relief valve
Electromagnet
O2 sensor
The possible failure related to this assembly is O2 sensor failure. Regarding the problem of
O2 sensor failure, initial judgment can be made based on the replacement cycle of the O2
sensor (once per year). If the replacement duration is relatively short and the O2
concentration detection is not accurate, you need to calibrate O2 concentration. If O2
concentration detection is still inaccurate, judge if it is caused by O2 sensor failure. The
judgment methods are:
1. Open the Air proportional valve alone and wait for O2 concentration measured value to
become stable. Check if the O2 concentration is 21% (subtle deviation is allowed). If not,
it indicates that the O2 sensor is failed. You need to replace the O2 sensor. If yes,
continue with the following step.
2. Open the O2 proportional valve alone and wait for O2 concentration measured value to
become stable. Check if the O2 concentration is 100% (subtle deviation is allowed). If
yes, it indicates that the O2 sensor is not damaged. If not, replace the O2 sensor.
To replace the O2 sensor, remove the connection cable at the tail directly. Remove the O2
sensor. Then install the new O2 sensor. When installing the new O2 sensor, tighten it properly
to prevent damage or overtightness, causing inconvenience to the future service.

5.5 Troubleshoot Sensor and Valve Related Failures by
Using the Valve Test Tool
5.5.1 Preparations before Using the Valve Test Tool
Make the following preparations before using the valve valve tool to locate the sensor or
valve related failures:
1 Connect the pneumatic circuit according to the type of sensor or valve to be checked.
Constant-flow connection method: Connect the tubes of the ventilator following the
constant-flow connection method to check the flow sensors and inspiratory valve.
For details, refer to 4.3.4Check the Flow Sensor Accuracy.
Constant-pressure connection method: Connect the tubes of the ventilator following
the constant-pressure connection method to check the pressure sensors and
expiratory valve. For details, refer to 4.3.5Check the Pressure Sensor Accuracy.
2. Make sure that the supply gas pressure is normal.
3. When the system is Standby, select the Menu key and then select [Maintain >>] →
[Service >>] → [Diagnosis >>] to access the [Valve Test] menu.
5.5.2 Correspondence between the Sensors & Valves on the
Valve Test Screen and the Components

To troubleshoot the sensors or valves related failures by using the valve test tool, you must be
familiar with the correspondence between the menu options on the valve test tool screen and
the actual pneumatic circuit and hardware components.

5.5.3 Troubleshooting Methods Using Valve Test Tool
By using the valve test tool, you can troubleshoot the problems related to:
Sensor zero point
Sensor sampling line connection
Sensor calibration data
Inspiratory valve status
Expiratory valve status
Safety valve status
5.5.3.1 Sensor zero point error

By using the valve test tool, you can easily detect if the zero points of all the pressure and
flow sensors of the ventilator are normal.
To diagnose sensor zero point error:

1. Disconnect all gas supplies. Disconnect the patient from the tubes. Make sure that the
pressure and flow sensors are in the zero point environment.
2. Check the actual measured values of all sensors in the valve test menu. If the actual
value is greater than “0.5”, it indicates that this sensor requires zeroing.
3. If the actual measured values of all sensors near “0”, check their zero point AD values.
If the zero point AD value of some sensor is outside the valid range, it indicates that this
sensor is faulty. You need to replace the sensor. After replacing the faulty sensor,
perform zeroing again. If the zero point AD value of the sensor is still outside the valid
range, it indicates that the monitoring board is faulty. You need to replace the board.
NOTE
z For the normal range of sensors’ zero points, refer to 4.3.3Check the Sensor Zero
Point.
5-28
5.5.3.2 Sensor sampling line connection error
The expiratory flow sensor has two sampling lines. Generally, connection error can be:
Two sampling lines are connected reversely;
One sampling line is not connected;
Two sampling lines are not connected.
The pressure sensor has one sampling line. Generally, connection error can be:
The sampling line is not connected;
The sampling line is not correctly connected.
By using the valve test tool, you can detect if the sensor sampling lines are connected
normally.
To diagnose the sampling line connection error of expiratory flow sensor:
1. Make sure that the gas supplies are normal. Access the valve test menu.
2. Increase the DA setting of the inspiratory valve gradually (open inspiration valve flow to
10L/Min). The AD value of the flow sensor should also increase. With the gradual
increase of gas supplied,
If the AD value of one flow sensor decreases gradually, it is possible that the two
sampling lines of the flow sensor are connected reversely.
If the AD value of one flow sensor nears zero point and keeps unchanged, it is
possible that the two sampling lines of the flow sensor are not connected or the
sampling line at the high pressure end is not connected.
If the low pressure end of the flow sensor is not connected, the AD value of the
flow sensor cannot help judgment of this situation. Disassemble the machine for
inspection when necessary.
3. If sensor sampling line connection error is detected, re-connect the sampling lines by
referring to the pneumatic connection process and make sure of connection correctness
following this above described method.
To diagnose the sampling line connection error of pressure sensor:
2. Increase the DA setting of the expiratory valve gradually. Check if the AD values of
expiratory pressure sensor and PEEP pressure sensor also increase.
If the AD value of one pressure sensor decreases gradually, it is possible that the
sampling line of the pressure sensor is connected incorrectly.
If the AD value of one pressure sensor keeps unchanged, it is possible that the
sampling line of the pressure sensor is not connected.
3. If sensor sampling line connection error is detected, re-connect the sampling line by
referring to the pneumatic connection process and make sure of connection correctness
following this above described method.
5-29
5.5.3.3 Sensor calibration data error
After confirming that both the sensor zero point and sampling line connection are normal,
you can judge the accuracy of sensor calibration data by checking the calibration table.
To diagnose the calibration data error of flow sensor:
Select [Service] to access [Cal. Data] menu. Check [Air Flow] and [O2 Flow]
factory calibration data and user calibration data respectively.
For [Flow], the maximum value in the factory calibration data table should be
greater than 95 L/min and that in the user calibration data table should be greater
than 60 L/min.
In the [Flow] calibration data, Air/O2 flow, AD value of expiratory flow, AD value
of VPM expiratory flow, and DA value of inspiratory valve should all be in
descending tendency.
If the calibration table does not satisfy the above requirement, do flow calibration.
To diagnose the calibration data error of pressure sensor:
Select [Service] to access [Cal. Data] menu. Check [Pressure] factory calibration
data.
The maximum value in the [Pressure] factory calibration data should be greater
than 90 cmH2O.
In the [Pressure] Calibration data, pressure, AD value of PEEP pressure, AD value
of expiratory pressure, AD value of VPM inspiratory pressure, AD value of VPM
expiratory pressure, and DA value of expiratory valve should all be in ascending
tendency.
If the calibration table does not satisfy the above requirement, do pressure
calibration.
5.5.3.4 Inspiratory valve status error

By using the valve test tool, you can check if the working status of inspiratory valve is
normal.
1. In the [Valve Test] menu, set the DA value of inspiratory valve to “0”. If the measured
values of inspiratory flow sensor, expiratory flow sensor, and standard equipment are all
greater than 1 L/min, it indicates that the inspiratory valve cannot be fully closed or that
there is some problem with the valve drive circuit.
2. In the [Valve Test] menu, gradually increase the opening of inspiratory valve (increase
flow setting value). If all the measured values of inspiratory flow sensor, expiratory flow
sensor, and standard equipment do not change much and that gas flow felt at the
expiratory port is also very small, it indicates that the inspiratory valve is faulty or that
there is some problem with the valve drive circuit.
5-30
3. If the flow measured by the standard flow measurement device still fails to reach 105
L/min when the DA value is set to more than “4000”, flow calibration is failed. In this
case, you need to replace the inspiratory valve or monitoring board.
4. To locate if this is problem with the valve drive circuit, you can check the status values
of Air valve and O2 valve in the [Valve Test] menu. With the increase of DA value, the
status current sampling values of Air valve and O2 valve should also increase. Besides,
when the inspiratory valve control DA value is adjusted above “4000”, its status current
sampling value should be 100 to 160 mA for VT50 and 250 to 600 mA for VT30.
Otherwise, it indicates that there is some problem with the valve drive circuit of
inspiratory valve.
5. After replacing the inspiratory valve or monitoring board, you can check if the problem
is fixed using the same method.
5.5.3.5 Expiratory valve status error

By using the valve test tool, you can check if the working status of expiratory valve is
normal.
1. Make sure that the gas supplies are normal. Access the valve test menu and set the
inspiratory valve opening flow to 10 L/min.
2. Set the DA value of expiratory valve to 0. If the measured values of inspiratory pressure
sensor, expiratory pressure sensor, and standard equipment are all greater than 1 cmH2O,
it indicates that the expiratory valve is faulty or that there is some problem with the
valve drive circuit.
3. Gradually increase the pressure setting value of expiratory valve. The measured value of
expiratory pressure sensor (and the connected ventilator calibration device) also
increases. If the measured values of expiratory pressure sensor and standard equipment
do not change much, it is possible that the expiratory valve is faulty or the sampling line
is disconnected, or that there is some problem with the valve drive circuit.
4. Note that there is a non-response area for the expiratory valve when the DA value is
relatively small (less than “2000”). When the DA value is less than this area, the
expiratory valve may not open and the output is “0” continuously. When the DA value
exceeds this area, the output increases with the increase of DA value.
5. To locate if this is problem with the valve drive circuit, you can check the status value of
expiratory valve in the [Valve Test] menu. With the increase of DA value, the status
current sampling value of expiratory valve should also increase. Besides, when the
expiratory valve control DA value is adjusted above “4000”, its status current sampling
value should be 250 to 350 mA. Otherwise, it indicates that there is some problem with
the valve drive circuit of expiratory valve.
6. After replacing the expiratory valve or monitoring board, you can check if the problem
is fixed using the same method.
5-31
5.5.3.6 Safety valve status error
There is some risk when the safety valve cannot be opened (namely, always closed). The
ventilator cannot perform normal mechanical ventilation when the safety valve cannot be
closed (namely, always opened).
By using the valve test tool, you can check if the safety vale can be opened or closed
normally.
2. Set the status of safety valve to ON and you can hear a subtle click.
3. Set expiratory valve pressure to 50 cmH2O and inspiratory valve opening flow to 5
L/min. Check the actual measured values of expiratory flow sensor and expiratory
pressure sensor, both of which should near “0” (less than “0.5”).Otherwise, it indicates
that the safety valve cannot be opened normally.
4. Based on the above operations, set the status of safety valve to OFF. Then, the measured
value of expiratory flow sensor will near that of inspiratory flow sensor. The measured
value of expiratory pressure sensor will near the expiratory valve opening pressure.
Otherwise, it indicates that the safety valve cannot be closed normally.
5. If safety valve control error is found, it is possible that there is some problem with the
drive voltage of safety valve. You can check the status value of safety valve in the valve
test menu. When the safety valve control is OFF, its status voltage value should be “0V”.
When the safety valve control is ON, its status voltage value should be about “1.7V”.
Otherwise, it indicates that there is some problem with the valve drive circuit of safety
valve.
6. If the safety valve is faulty, replace the safety valve assembly. After replacing the safety
valve assembly, you can check if the problem is fixed using the same method.
