5 6 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Pre-Use Testing consists of: • Alarm Test • Reverse Gas Flow Procedure 1. Secure the Air-Oxygen Blender to a wall or pole bracket in an upright position. 2. It is recommended to install a condensation trap in the air supply line. 3. Connect the air and oxygen supply lines to the appropriate inlet fittings on the bottom of the Blender. 4. Attach a flowmeter, or other metering device to one of the outlet ports and verify FIO2 range for accuracy with an oxygen analyzer.
1 OXYGEN CONCENTRATION DIAL - A dial used for selecting oxygen concentrations between 21%-100%. The FIO2 scale is used for reference only. This Dial does not rotate 360°. The dial starts at 21% and ends at 100%.
2 PRIMARY OUTLET PORT - A male DISS oxygen fitting with check valve that delivers flow when engaged to any controlling device, such as a flowmeter.
3 AUXILIARY OUTLET PORT - A male DISS oxygen fitting with check valve that delivers flow when engaged to any controlling device, such as a flowmeter. This outlet is equipped with a bleed valve that allows the user to control if the bleed is ON or OFF. With the bleed in the ON position, this outlet delivers accurate oxygen concentrations in the following flows: 2–100 l/min (high flow), 0–30 l/min (low flow).
Primary Outlets Flow capacity: • High Flow Blender (R203P14 Model) 15 l/min to 120 l/min • Low Flow Blender (R203P13 Model) 3 l/min to 30 l/min Auxiliary Outlet: The auxiliary flow outlet maintains the same flow capacity and FIO2 accuracy as the Primary Outlets with Bleed Valve not engaged. When bleed flow is activated, some of the air/oxygen mixture will vent to atmosphere to maintain FIO2 concentration accuracy at the Low Flow settings.
4 AUXILIARY BLEED COLLAR - The collar is used to engage and disengage the bleed. The bleed is necessary to maintain accurate FIO2 Concentration below 15 l/min for the High Flow and ≤ 3 l/min for the Low Flow. To activate the bleed, slide the knurled collar back until it contacts the cover. To deactivate the bleed, pull the collar away from cover until it reaches a positive stop.
High Flow Blender (R203P14 Model) 15 l/min or less Low Flow Blender (R203P13 Model) 3 l/min or less 5. Attach a supply line to the outlet port of the flowmeter. •
5 OXYGEN INLET FITTING - A female DISS or NIST oxygen fitting with one way valve that
•
is used to connect an oxygen supply hose.
6 AIR INLET FITTING - A male DISS or NIST air fitting with one way valve that is used to ALARM TEST connect an air supply hose. 1. Connect the Air-Oxygen Blender to air and oxygen sources, pressurize the Blender 7 ALARM - An audible alarm that sounds due to an excessive pressure drop or deletion of and turn “ON” the flowmeter. either gas supply.

2. Set Oxygen Concentration Dial to 60% FIO2. 3. Disconnect or turn “OFF” the air supply to the Air-Oxygen Blender. The Blender should alarm with a loud whistle noise. The whistle indicates the alarm is operating correctly. 4. Reconnect and activate the air supply line to the Blender, the alarm should stop whistling. 5. Disconnect or turn “OFF” the oxygen supply line to the Blender. The whistle indicates the alarm is operating correctly. 6. Reconnect and activate the oxygen supply line to the Blender, the alarm should stop whistling. 7. If alarm fails to function properly, DO NOT USE.

PRE-USE TESTING WARNING: Read this User Manual before installing or operating the Air-Oxygen Blender. Confirm the concentration of air/oxygen with an Oxygen Analyzer/Monitor. CAUTION: Inspect the Air-Oxygen Blender for visual damage before use, if damaged.
DO NOT USE

REVERSE GAS FLOW PROCEDURE
MAINTENANCE
1. Disconnect the oxygen hose from the gas source. Remove all outlet connections from the Blender to ensure that there is no outlet flow. 2. While gradually increasing the air supply pressure from 30-75 psi (2.07-5.17 bar) check for leakage past the oxygen inlet check valve. 3. Replace the Duckbill Check Valve in the oxygen inlet if leakage is > 100 ml/min. Reference Air-Oxygen Blender Service Manual (P/N R203M15). 4. Repeat steps 1-3 to check for leakage past the air inlet check valve.
The following maintenance on the Air-Oxygen Blender must be performed by a trained service technician: • •

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Secure Blender to wall or pole mount bracket. Connect Air and Oxygen supply lines from Blender to wall outlets. Connect flowmeter to Blender outlet. Adjust the Oxygen Concentration Dial to the prescribed concentration.
NOTE: The Oxygen Concentration Dial does not rotate 360°. or over 100% oxygen, this will damage the Blender.
The alarm should be tested prior to being placed into clinical service and periodically there after. Every year conduct the Operational Verification Procedure (OVP).* A detailed description of the OVP tests can be found in the Blender Service Manual (P/N R203M15), available on the Internet; www.maxtec.com. Every 2 years the Air-Oxygen Blender should be serviced. Refer to the Air-Oxygen Blender Service Manual (P/N R203M15) for complete details regarding further maintenance and testing.
For a complete Technical Description of the Air-Oxygen Blender and list of Replacement Parts, reference the Air-Oxygen Blender Service Manual (P/N R203M15) available on the Internet: www.maxtec.com.
RETURNS
DO NOT force dial less than 21%
Returned products require a Returned Material Authorization (RMA) number, contact Maxtec. All returns must be packaged in sealed containers to prevent damage. Maxtec will not be responsible for goods damaged in transit. Refer to Maxtec Return Policy available on the Internet: www.maxtec.com.
5. Confirm the flow of air and/or oxygen mixture to the patient. 6. Confirm the concentration of air/oxygen with an Oxygen Analyzer/Monitor. If necessary activate bleed flow valve to maintain FIO2 accuracy. 7. To activate the bleed, slide the knurled collar back until it contacts the cover. 8. To deactivate the bleed, pull the collar away from the cover until bleed flow valve is closed. 9. Turn “OFF” gas supplies when Air-Oxygen Blender is not in use.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the Air-Oxygen Blender fails to function, consult the Troubleshooting Guide below. If problem cannot be solved by using Troubleshooting Guide, refer to the Air-Oxygen Blender Service Manual (P/N R203M15) available on the Internet; www.maxtec.com or consult your Provider.
CLEANING CAUTION DO NOT steam autoclave. DO NOT immerse the Air-Oxygen Blender into any liquid. DO NOT use any strong solvent or abrasive cleaners. DO NOT gas sterilize with (EtO) Ethylene Oxide. DO NOT clean with aromatic hydrocarbons. DO NOT allow the liquid to penetrate the device.
PROBLEM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Oxygen concentration discrepancy between Blender setting and Analyzer/ Monitor (greater than 3%)
1. High Flow model, flow requirement below 15 l/min. Low Flow model, flow requirement below 3 l/min. 2. Analyzer/Monitor inaccurate 3. Low flow bleed obstructed 4. Gas supply contaminated 5. Downstream device causing back flow or restricted flow
1. Use auxiliary outlet & engage bleed 2. Recalibrate Analyzer/ Monitor or Verify with second Analyzer/Monitor 3. Remove obstruction 4. Check gas sources with calibrated Oxygen Analyzer/ Monitor to confirm Oxygen is 100% and Air is 21% 5. Isolate Blender. Check oxygen concentration at Blender Outlets
No flow at Blender outlets
1. Gas sources turned “OFF” 2. Gas sources not connected
1. Turn gas sources “ON” 2. Connect gas sources
DO NOT gas or heat sterilize. 1. Disconnect all gas connections and equipment before cleaning. 2. Close Bleed Valve to ensure O-Ring is not exposed. 3. Clean exterior surfaces using Super Sani-Cloth germicidal disposable wipes. Remove all visible contamination from the external surfaces of the device and its accessories. Be sure to closely inspect and remove contamination from seams and recesses on the device that may trap contaminants. Wipe with clean paper towel to remove debris. 4. After all visible contamination is removed; use a second germicidal wipe to thoroughly wet the surfaces of the device and accessories. Allow to remain wet for 4 minutes. Use additional wipes if needed to assure surfaces are wetted continuously for 4 minutes. 5. Allow device to air dry completely. 6. Visually inspect the device for visible contamination. Repeat cleaning/disinfection process if necessary.
