Calibration Check - Vyaire PulmoLife Mode D'emploi

To sterilise, immerse the turbine in a cold-water solution (e.g. PeraSafe)
for a period not exceeding 10 minutes.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not use alcohol or chloride based solutions.
After cleaning/sterilising, the turbine should be rinsed in distilled water
and left to dry.
Do not use objects, such as pens or cotton buds, to clean or dry the
turbine, as this may cause irreparable physical damage.
To replace the turbine hold the unit and the turbine swirl plate facing you,
put the turbine back into the turbine housing then push until the turbine is
fully located, such that the back of the turbine is completely level with the
back of the unit.
The PulmoLife moulding can be wiped clean using a damp cloth or
surgical wipe.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to wash or immerse the Pulmolife transducer
housing in water or cleaning fluid, as there are electronic components
inside that will be permanently damaged.
PLEASE NOTE: Used cardboard mouthpieces must be disposed off
immediately after each use. If there are changes on the material surfaces
(cracks, brittleness) the respective parts must be disposed off.

CALIBRATION CHECK

The unit should not require recalibration. However, as a confirmation of
the correct functioning of the unit, the calibration can be checked using a
3-litre calibration syringe. (36-SM2125). We recommend that a calibration
check is performed after the transducer has been replaced or after it has
been removed for cleaning.
To check the calibration hold down the On and Scrolling Up
keys together, and only release when 'Ch' is displayed.
When the blow symbol and '0.00' appear, empty the 3-litre syringe
smoothly into the unit. The value will be displayed.
If the unit detects an error the blow symbol and calibration value will
flash. An acceptable calibration check is within +/-3% of the 3-litres
entered (so between 2.91 and 3.09 litres).
PLEASE NOTE: Calibration check failure is unusual but is most often
due to malfunction of the turbine, either because it is physically damaged
or dirty. Clean the turbine (see cleaning) and recheck the calibration. If the
unit still fails calibration check, replace with a new turbine (see
accessories for order number).
PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended that a used transducer is disinfected
prior to a calibration check or a MicroGard filter is used during the
procedure.
