Sensors
EvitaXL uses the following sensors for measuring and
monitoring:
— Flow sensor
— Pressure sensors
— O2 sensor
— CO2 sensor (optional)
The last sensor calibration values obtained are saved until the
sensors are calibrated again, even if the ventilator is switched
off in the meantime.
The pressure sensors for measuring the airway pressure are
calibrated automatically.
The flow sensor and O2 sensor are calibrated automatically
once per day.
The flow sensor can be calibrated at any time, even during
ventilation.
The O2 sensor can be calibrated at any time, even during ventilation.
This does not influence the applied O2 concentration.
Calibration of the CO2 sensor (optional) can be checked during
ventilation.
Flow sensor calibration
— After replacing the flow sensor.
The flow sensor is automatically cleaned by EvitaXL before it is
calibrated.
It is automatically cleaned and calibrated by EvitaXL after use
of the medicament nebuliser.
● Flammable gases (e.g. alcohol vapours after disinfection)
must be avoided.
● Flow sensors which have been disinfected in ethanol
must be allowed to dry in air for at least 30 minutes.
