Air Liquide Medical Systems recommends using the patient circuits listed in Chapter “7 3 List of options
and accessories” If not, the use of patient circuits containing phthalates or bisphenol A poses risks for pregnant
women, lactating women and children
In a case where the expiratory valve is not fitted assemble the expiratory valve as shown in “11.3 Expiratory
assembly cleaning protocol” then insert it into the housing until you here it click into place.
Double-branch patient circuit
Connect the patient circuit to the ventilator and the humidifier (if used):
27 28
• Connect the expiratory branch to the expiratory valve ofthe ventilator: (27).
• Connect the inspiratory branch to the inspiratory outlet cone of the ventilator: (28).
Make sure to limit dead space when installing the patient circuit and accessories
When using the equipment on a patient for the first time, make sure that you follow the hospital’s hygiene
protocol for new single-use equipment or adequately sterilized reusable equipment The accessories and con-
sumables (patient circuit, masks, expiratory valves, adapters, nebulizer, etc ) are generally available in single-use
and autoclavable versions
Reusing single-use accessories or consumables carries the risk of patient cross-contamination This risk
also arises if reusable accessories or consumables are not sterilized between each use
3.2.4. CO2 Measurement Probe (IRMA™)
CO monitoring requires a software option that can be enabled using a code To use this option, contact
your Air Liquide Medical Systems representative
After purchasing this option Air Liquide Medical Systems provides:
• the activation code for the option
• the CO2 probe for measuring the concentration of exhaled carbon dioxide (in accordance with ISO 80601-2-
55)
• the necessary adapters.
etCO2 connector
1. Connect the IRMA™ probe to the etCO2 connection socket (see opposite).
2. Apply power to the ventilator.
3. Connect the probe to its patient adapter (a). The probe is correctly connected to its adapter when you hear
it click into position.
4. Wait at least 10 seconds. If the etCO2 monitoring block does not show 0% or if the error ‘CO2 measurement
incorrect’ is displayed a calibration test should be carried out. See “4.16.3. Sensors” page 61.
5. The LED flashes and then goes green. This means that the IRMA™ probe is ready for use (b).
Pre-use checks (for each new patient)
Y-piece respiratory filters can prevent medication from being effective their use is therefore not recom-
mended,
The precision of the expired volume can be impaired a protective filter can then be used at the expiration
end
Nebulization may increase the resistance of the filters used in the patient circuit The filters should be test-
ed frequently to check for an increase in resistance or blockage
3.2.7. Interchangeable battery
Prior to using the interchangeable battery for the first time please complete the blank expiration date label sup-
plied with the battery (2 years after date of first use).
Do not obstruct the vents located on the left- and right-hand sides of the device and underneath it, as
this could compromise patient safety.
Apply power to the device using the ON/OFF button located on the left-hand side of the unit (see opposite).

Ventilation Mode
P ay / Pause Key
Apnea ventilation can be activated; the apnea parameters should be suited to the condition and require-
ments of the patient
- Use of the ‘RR min’ parameter in the absence of inspiratory demand for a time exceeding ‘1/RR minimum’ of
a minute The ventilator initiates a pressure support cycle The RR low alarm can be associated with this safety
feature by setting it to a value above RR min
- Use of the ‘TI max’ parameter in the event of a leak in the circuit, the flow rate expiratory trigger may not be
activated; in this case, the limitation on inspiration time allows the patient to enter the expiratory phase
When this mode is launched during non-invasive ventilation, apnea ventilation is deactivated for two min-
utes
4.9.7. SIMV
[SIMV = Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation]
Principle
SIMV Mode combines mandatory assisted controlled ventilation and pressure supports spontaneous patient
ventilation between the controlled cycles.
Set-points
FiO2 Inspired oxygen fraction
VT Tidal volume (mL);
RR SIMV Determines the frequency of the mandatory cycles (bpm);
PEEP Positive end of expiration pressure (cmH2O);
Tins Determines the inspiratory time of the mandatory cycles (bpm);
Tplat Inspiratory plateau time of the mandatory cycles (% TI);
Trig.I Inspiratory trigger (L/min);
Flow rate Form of flow rate insufflated to the patient: Constant or decelerated;
PSV Pressure support ventilation
delivered during the spontaneous cycles (cmH2O);
TImax Maximum inspiration time of spontaneous cycles (s);
Slope Pressure support pressure rise slope (cmH2O/s);
Trig.E Expiratory trigger
(% of peak inspiratory flow).
In this ventilation mode the controlled cycle (VCV) delivers a fixed volume at the set frequency RR SIMV. A SIMV
period arises from this frequency.
e.g. for a SIMV frequency set to 10 cycles per minute the SIMV period between two controlled (VCV) cycles is
6 seconds.
In the event of absence of patient respiratory activity this mode provides the guarantee of controlled ventilation
(VCV).
When the patient has regular and detectable respiratory activity the unit responds by:
• supplying a ‘spontaneous’ cycle (PSV) if the time elapsed since the last controlled cycle is less than the
SIMV period.
• supplying a ‘controlled’ cycle (VCV) if the time elapsed since the last controlled cycle is greater than the
SIMV period.
If patient respiratory activity decreases after a spontaneous cycle the unit waits for the SIMV period to expire
before triggering a controlled cycle (VCV).
NIV generally involves a variable leakage, which the unit estimates This estimate is then input into the in-
spiratory demand detection algorithm to limit self-triggering It may be necessary, however, to increase the level
of the inspiratory trigger slightly, if self-triggering occurs too often It may be necessary, however, to increase the
level of the inspiratory trigger slightly if self-triggering occurs too often
In the volumetric modes used in NIV, the insufflated volume does not take leakage into account The user
must also take special care to monitor the NIV volumes in particular, the difference between the VT insufflated
by the ventilator (VTi) and the VT measured at the expiratory valve outlet (VTe) must be monitored; this differ-
ence indicates the level of leakage
The inspiratory and expiratory plateaus and pauses are disabled in CPAP mode
Principle
Duo-Levels mode is characterised by pressure-controlled ventilation combined with the patient having the abil-
ity to breathe spontaneously throughout the cycle.
Duo-Levels mode is used to maintain a constant pressure (PI) for a time T high and then a lower pressure
(PEEP) for a time T low. The duration of the high-pressure phase and the minimum frequency are adjustable.
Trigger windows
To enable the patient’s spontaneous breathing to adapt correctly to the ventilator trigger windows are present
to synchronize the inspiratory and expiratory phases:
• From low pressure to high pressure the start of the trigger window is launched at T1. T1 takes the highest of
the following two values: 30% of T low or T low - 4 seconds.
• From high pressure to low pressure the trigger window is launched at T2. T2 takes the highest of the fol-
lowing two values: 70% of T high or T high - 2 seconds. At the end of the T high phase if an inspiration is in
progress the T high phase is extended by a maximum of one second.

Set-points
Apnea ventilation can be activated; apnea parameters should be adapted to the morphology and require-
ments of the patient
When this mode is launched, apnea ventilation is deactivated for two minutes
Principle
PRVC mode is a pressure-regulated ventilation mode that guarantees the volume delivered to the patient. The
ventilator automatically adapts the inspiratory pressure delivered so that the monitored Vti is equal to the set
VT Target.
The adaptation interval of the PI is between 0.1 cmH2O and 3 cmH2O. It depends on the gap between the VT
Target and the moniored Vti
The VT Target should not be used in NIV. If there is a leak, the tidal volume monitored by the ventilator
no longer represents the tidal volume inhaled by the patient. Any adaptation of the pressure is therefore
inappropriate.
Principle
The PS-Pro mode is a PSV-type pressure-regulated ventilation whose assistance frequency evolves automat-
ically between two set frequencies: RR min and RR support (minimum frequency and maintained frequency).
The aim of automatic adaptation of the frequency is to let the patient breathe autonomously when his or her
respiratory reflexes are active and allow the ventilator to take over when his or reflexes are inactive.
Furthermore the PS-Pro mode can be combined with the VT Target function. The inspiratory assistance pres-
sure is then adapted cycle to cycle so that the monitored VT may converge towards the set VT Target.
If the patient breathes spontaneously in such a way as to set off the inspiratory trigger at a frequency above the
set minimum frequency the assistance frequency is then equal to the minimum frequency.
In the case of insufficient or no inspiratory effort (the patient’s respiratory frequency is lower than the set min-
imum frequency) the ventilator guarantees an assistance frequency equal to the set maintenance frequency.
It is therefore necessary to set a maintenance frequency equivalent to the frequency set in AVCV or APVC mode.
When ventilation is launched the assistance frequency is equal to the maintenance frequency.
The maximum insufflation time (Ti max) is automatically set at 40 % of the total time of a cycle with an assis-
tance frequency not exceeding 3.5 seconds.
For operation of the VT Target function, refer to PRVC mode
The set minimum frequency is a safety threshold below which the ventilator provides controlled ven-
tilation based on the set patient frequency.
If the patient is disconnected, the frequency is no longer adapted until the patient is reconnected.
Safety features of the VT target function are applied when the function is activated.
Set-points
Principle
PSIMV Mode combines mandatory assisted pressure-controlled ventilation and spontaneous patient ventila-
tion between the assisted controlled cycles.
Set-points
Operation
In this ventilation mode the “controlled” cycle (PCV) delivers a fixed pressure at the set frequency RRSIMV. A
SIMV period arises from this frequency.
E.g. for a SIMV frequency set to 10 cycles per minute the SIMV period between two “controlled” (PCV) cycles
is 6 seconds.
In the event of absence of patient respiratory activity this mode provides the guarantee of controlled ventilation
(PCV).
When the patient has regular and detectable respiratory activity the unit responds by:
• supplying a “spontaneous” cycle (PSV) if the time elapsed since the last “controlled” cycle is less than the
SIMV period
• supplying a “controlled” cycle (PCV) if the time elapsed since the last “controlled” cycle is greater than the
SIMV period.
If patient respiratory activity declines again after a “spontaneous” cycle the unit waits for the SIMV period - set
TiMax to expire before triggering a “controlled” cycle (PCV) itself.
Insufflation in a spontaneous cycle with pressure support ends:
• If the flow rate falls below the set expiratory threshold (E. Trig);
• If the patient makes an expiratory effort
• or if the insufflation time reaches the maximum Ti setting (Timax).
Apnea ventilation can be activated; the apnea parameters should be suited to the condition and require-
ments of the patient
It enables comparison of the instantaneous CO2 value with the average CO2 concentration line in order to reveal
a sudden variation in the CO2 level.

Operation
During this phase ventilation alternates between a level of high pressure and low pressure triggered by the
ventilator. The pressure is specifically regulated to optimize the chest compressions.

2. Perform an automatic test with a dual branch circuit (see section “3.2.9 Automatic tests”);
3. Disconnect the dual branch circuit and set up the required patient circuit on the inspiratory branch of the
ventilator and on the humidifier;
4. Connect the patient/machine interface between the humidifier and the patient;
5. Check that the humidifier is in working order before switching it on;
6. Enable the Oxygen therapy function and set the desired flow rate.
• When using the IRMA™ probe place the adapter so that its XTP™ windows are vertical to avoid an accumulation
of patient secretions on these windows:
• When using the IRMA™ probe position the adapter so that moisture and secretions do not accumulate inside
it due to the effect of gravity.
• Replace the adapter if humidity is observed on the inside.
• Do not use the IRMA™ airway adapter with nebulized medications as this may affect the light transmission
of the airway adapter windows.
• If the calibration is not done properly the measurement values will be skewed.
• Never sterilize the IRMA™ probe or immerse it in liquid.
• Do not pull on the cable of the IRMA™ probe.
• Do not use the IRMA™ probe at a temperature below 0°C or above 40°C.
• During use ensure that the IRMA™ probe is connected to the ventilator before you connect it to the patient.
• The probe can be cleaned using a cloth dipped in alcohol (maximum 70% ethanol or 70% isopropanol).
• Remove the adapter before cleaning the probe.
• The adapters are not autoclavable.
• The gas measurements supplied by the probe must be checked regularly using a reference instrument. We
recommend that this check be performed annually.

4.16.3. Sensors
This key is used to enable or disable monitoring.
Three monitoring sensors can be selected or de-se-
lected:
• FiO2 monitoring
• etCO2 monitoring
• Expiratory flow monitoring.
To enable a sensor:
• Press the Menu key
• Press the Sensors key
• Press the desired sensor to enable it (yellow LED).
By default FiO2 monitoring and monitoring of the expi-
ratory flow are enabled (yellow LEDs).
etCO2 monitoring is enabled automatically when the
etCO2 probe is connected to the ventilator.
When the etCO2 probe is connected or enabled the
CO2 sensor calibrat. key is used to calibrate the probe.
If the etCO probe is connected but the user does
not require it, the user may disable it
CO2 sensor calibration
The IRMA™ probe must be calibrated whenever an off-
set is found in the measurements or when the Cali-
brate CO2 sensor alarm is triggered.
The probe cannot be calibrated until approximately
10 seconds after it has been connected to the venti-
lator.
Probe calibration must be performed with a new
adapter on the sensor. This must be disconnected
from the Y-piece of the patient circuit and from the
patient. Next press the CO2 sensor calibrat. key to
launch probe calibration. The green LED on the probe
flashes for about five seconds during calibration.
Special care must be taken to avoid any breathing into
the adapter during probe calibration. The presence of
ambient air (21% O2 and 0% CO2) in the probe is crucial
for a successful calibration.
4.16.4. Low-pressure O2
This function allows the machine to enrich the O2 mix-
ture from a low-pressure source typically a low flow
meter on an O2 cylinder or a concentrator.
This is different from connecting it to a high-pressure
source as it involves lower quantities (pressure gen-
erally below 1 bar flow less than 10 L/min); According
to the nature of the source and the ventilation settings
certain FiO2 values cannot be guaranteed. An align-
ment chart is provided for information in Section “9.
Technical description”.
To enable the low-pressure O2 function press Menu
and then Low-pressure O2 .
The message ‘Low-pressure O2 enabled’ (informa-
tion) then appears in the alarm panel.
The gas mixture is O2-enriched and monitored in con-
junction with the FiO2 setting parameter and the ma-
chine supplies the desired concentration insofar as
possible.
If the ventilation and low-pressure source settings are
incompatible the FiO2 will not be reached and the Low
FiO2!!! alarm will be triggered. The user will then be
informed that the settings need to be modified.

(*) Activation delay: Sum of the maximum alarm condition delay and the delay to activation of the audible or
visual alarm
Delay in the activation of certain alarms can vary according to the status of the machine (in stand-by,
during ventilation, during automatic tests), the type of patient and the elapsed duration of ventilation
6. Maintenance
Accessories can be re-usable (autoclavable) or single-use (disposable).
Re-usable elements must be regularly cleaned and sterilized to prevent cross-infection.
This procedure which is mandatory and extremely important is the responsibility of the user.
6.1. Definitions
Pre-disinfection
Initial treatment to be carried out on soiled objects and equipment in order to reduce the presence of micro-or-
ganisms and facilitate subsequent cleaning.
Cleaning
The act of removing all traces of soiling from a place a surface or an element.
Sterilization
Total destruction of all germ strains viruses and yeasts.
A sterilization or disinfection procedure is never possible on dirty or soiled elements.
A complete procedure includes:
1. Disassembly pre-disinfection rinsing and drying
2. Cleaning rinsing and drying
3. Disinfection rinsing and drying or sterilization
4. Reassembly and functional tests
Never use abrasive powders, acetone, or other powerful solvents
The following instructions have been approved by the manufacturer of the medical equipment as enabling
a medical device to be prepared for re-use
It is always the responsibility of the department concerned to ensure that the sterilization procedure actually im-
plemented to the equipment, materials and personnel of the reprocessing facility achieves the expected result
This generally requires the validation and routine inspection of procedures

Single-use version
The expiratory assembly is delivered by Air Liquide Medical Systems clean and ready for clinical use. The ex-
change interval depends on hospital infection-control protocols the presence of secretions and the nebuliza-
tion of drugs.
Reusing single-use accessories or consumables carries the risk of patient cross-contamination
Autoclavable version
To help track the number of cycles the sensor and valve are marked with a unit serial number (SN).
The expiratory flow sensor ) requires special precautions during pre-disinfection, cleaning, and disin-
fection. It contains a very fine, fragile platinum wire.
It is therefore important to:
- Avoid inserting any object into the flow sensor,
- Avoid exposing it to a jet of water or air,
- Avoid any impacts or dropping it.
After a cleaning/disinfection cycle (immersion autoclave etc.) the hot wire expiratory flow sensor must be
thoroughly dried before being reinstalled connected to the expiratory valve and connected to the ventilator.
Perform a visual check to ensure that the various components are in good condition.
Sterilization of the autoclavable expiratory valve flow sensor and autoclavable expiratory valve before the
first use is recommended
1. Disassemble the patient circuit by removing its components: pipes fittings water traps and Y-piece.
2. Remove the expiratory assembly from its housing by pressing the eject pushbutton.
3. Disassemble the expiratory assembly according to the diagram below:
2
3
1
4. Remove the expiratory flow hot wire sensor (1) the valve body (2).
5. Remove and dispose of the membrane (3).
The membrane is for single patient use.
Do not remove the two seals from the valve body (2).
The flow sensor requires special precautions:
• Avoid inserting any object into the flow sensor,
• Avoid exposing it to a jet of water or air,
• Avoid impacts or dropping it.
Pre-disinfection / cleaning
Air Liquide Medical Systems recommends the use of products neodisher MultiZym, Anios Clean Excel D
(obey the instructions of the product manufacturer)
2. Rinse the parts under running water except for the expiratory flow sensor (1) which should only be dipped
in water.
3. Leave the components to dry on absorbent paper.
Sterilization: PRION cycle 134°/18 min
A unique serial number on the expiratory flow sensor (1) and the valve body (2) gives the date of manufac-
ture of the components and can be used to track the number of cycles they have undergone
Reassembly
Reassemble the expiratory assembly wearing gloves: place a new membrane in the valve body.
It is necessary to perform an automatic test after each assembly of the expiratory valve and the flow
sensor.
Incorrect reassembly of the expiratory assembly (wrong positioning of the membrane in the valve
body, removal or addition of an additional silicon disc, etc.) can lead to degraded performance of the device
(risk of leaks, incorrect pressurization, failure to respect the volume – hypoventilation).
7. Accessories
7.1. Regulatory requirements
The accessories used with this ventilator must com-
ply with the general requirements of European direc-
tive 93/42/CEE as well as EN 60601-1 and collateral
standards.
Accessories from the Air Liquide Medical Systems
catalogue or included in the accessories kit delivered
with the ventilator comply with these requirements.
The use of accessories not recommended by Air Liq-
uide Medical Systems releases Air Liquide Medical
Systems from all liability in the event of an incident.
The user is responsible for ensuring that the use of ac-
cessories does not affect the safety and the expected
performance of the ventilator.
The inspiratory and expiratory resistance measure-
ments are taken during the automatic tests. In the
absence of automatic tests the resistances retained
correspond to those of the ventilator fitted with a stan-
dard adult patient circuit and a bacteriological filter
(KV103300).
Altering the patient circuit (e g , addition of a hu-
midifier, nebulizer) may lead to variations in the inspira-
tory and expiratory resistances These variations may
negatively affect the performance of the ventilator
If a nebulizer is used, it is necessary to use a filter
on the expiratory limb to avoid damage to the expira-
tory flow sensor
Nebulization may increase the resistance of the
filters placed in the patient circuit The filters should
be checked frequently for an increase in resistance or
blockage
The prescriber must also ensure that the configura-
tion thus obtained complies with IEC 60601-2-12.

When a device is commissioned and after any maintenance operation carry out the sequence of actions below:
Yes, No,
done not
done
- Connect the un t to the O2 wa out et or an oxygen cy nder
→ Check that the supp y pressure s correct (between 2 8 and 6 bar)
- Install the patient circuit on the machine and connect a test lung.
- Connect the unit to the mains power supply and check that the blue indicator light on the
front panel lights up.
- Press the ON/OFF button on left-hand side of the machine to switch on the ventilator.
→ You should hear a BEEP from the audible alarm and the ventilator screen should light up.
- Select “Emergency ventilation” in the machine stand-by screen (FiO2 setting = 21%).
→ After one minute of ventilation check that no technical alarm is present (this test is used to
purge oxygen before performing the autotests).
- C ose off the Y-p ece and run the automat c test procedure
→ The message Test successfu appears as we as a comp ance va ue
- Select “Emergency ventilation” in the machine stand-by screen (FiO2 setting = 100%).
→ After one minute of ventilation check that no technical alarm is present (this test is used to
check the addition of oxygen).
- Test the funct on ng of the a arms adjust the thresho ds to tr gger the a arms (fo ow the method
descr bed n 4 15 1 Adjustment of a arm thresho ds )
→ To trigger the obstruction alarm: using a tool simulate an obstruction in the expiratory limb
during ventilation (for example: by clamping the expiratory limb).
Battery operation:
- Dur ng vent at on on the test ung d sconnect the e ectr ca connect on

1. Disassemble the patient circuit by removing its components: pipes fittings water traps and Y-piece.
2. Remove the expiratory assembly from its housing by pressing the eject pushbutton.
3. Disassemble the expiratory assembly according to the diagram below:
2
3
1
4. Remove the expiratory flow hot wire sensor (1) the valve body (2).
5. Remove and dispose of the membrane (3).
The membrane is for single patient use.
Do not remove the two seals from the valve body (2).
The flow sensor requires special precautions:
• Avoid inserting any object into the flow sensor,
• Avoid exposing it to a jet of water or air,
• Avoid impacts or dropping it.
Pre-disinfection / cleaning
Air Liquide Medical Systems recommends the use of products neodisher MultiZym, Anios Clean Excel D
(obey the instructions of the product manufacturer)
2. Rinse the parts under running water except for the expiratory flow sensor (1) which should only be dipped
in water.
3. Leave the components to dry on absorbent paper.
Sterilization: PRION cycle 134°/18 min
A unique serial number on the expiratory flow sensor (1) and the valve body (2) gives the date of manufac-
ture of the components and can be used to track the number of cycles they have undergone
Reassembly
Reassemble the expiratory assembly wearing gloves: place a new membrane in the valve body.
It is necessary to perform an automatic test after each assembly of the expiratory valve and the flow
sensor.
Incorrect reassembly of the expiratory assembly (wrong positioning of the membrane in the valve
body, removal or addition of an additional silicon disc, etc.) can lead to degraded performance of the device
(risk of leaks, incorrect pressurization, failure to respect the volume – hypoventilation).
