Precautions - Ohio Medical Push-To-Set PTS-CVR Mode D'emploi

EN
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could
result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should
be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or
decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation. No cables,
transducers, or accessories are required for operation.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the Push-to-Set Vacuum
Regulator [Amvex Vacuum Regulator]. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment
could result.
CAUTIONS
Connection to positive pressure sources such as oxygen and medical air, even momentarily, could damage
the equipment.
Detailed information for more extensive repairs is included in the service manual for users having proper knowledge,
tools and test equipment, and for service representatives trained by Ohio Medical.
The suction control knob must be completely pushed in to adjust the vacuum level. Failure to do so may damage
the vacuum regulator.
Not for field or transport use: The categories of Field and Transport Use are specifically defined in ISO 10079-
3 "Field" means accidents or emergencies outside the hospital. "Transport" means use in ambulances, cars
and airplanes. These situations may expose the equipment to uneven support, dirt, water, mechanical shock
and temperature extremes. Ohio Medical suction equipment has not been tested to comply with the specific
requirements of these categories.
Do not use harsh chemical or cleaning solution. Do not spray cleaners directly onto suction regulators. Only use
chemical recommended in this manual.
Important: BATTERY LOW INDICATOR: When a battery icon appears on the gauge it indicates that the battery
is low. Please take the unit out of service immediately and contact an Ohio Medical Customer Service
Representative for battery replacement.
Note: If the low battery condition is not addressed and the battery becomes fully depleted, the gauge will not show
any readout, including the low battery icon or gauge pressure. If the gauge were to go blank during suctioning,
the unit will continue to suction and the intermittent feature will continue to operate. Once completing that
procedure, it is important to immediately take the unit out of service and contact an Ohio Medical Customer
Service Representative for battery replacement.
Note: Performance may vary in relation to the source vacuum pressure levels. The device will continue to
perform as intended across a very broad range of vacuum levels, however, some characteristics, particularly the
intermittent timing, will vary with significant difference from 500 mmHg (66.7 kPa) used for factory setup.
