WARNING Disconnect the Air-Oxygen Blender from all connections prior to disassembly. Use Medical Air and Medical Oxygen when servicing to avoid contamination. The Air-Oxygen Blender should be serviced by a qualified service technician. An Oxygen Analyzer/Monitor must be used to verify oxygen concentrations. When reassembling the Blender, do not pressurize the system until the retaining screw of the Proportioning Module has been fully tightened. The Proportioning Module can be forcefully ejected by gas pressure if not sufficiently tightened. Always follow ANSI and CGA standards for Medical Gas Products, Flowmeters and Oxygen Handling. When servicing requirements of Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices and all International Standards apply. (On CE marked devices ONLY) DO NOT obstruct the alarm. Oxygen Concentration Dial does not rotate 360 degrees. Rotating the dial less than 21% or over 100% oxygen will damage the Blender.
Service Warning This Service Manual is provided for your safety and to prevent damage to the Air-Oxygen Blender. It is essential to read and understand this entire manual before attempting to service the Air-Oxygen Blender. If you have any questions regarding the installation, setup, operation, and/or maintenance of the AirOxygen Blender, contact Maxtec.
CAUTION Use recommended lubricants sparingly as lubricant may migrate to other areas and cause the Blender to malfunction. When pressurizing the Blender inlets, avoid pressure surges greater than 100 psi (6.9 bar) . Ensure all connections are tight and leak free before returning to service. Store Blender in a clean, dry area when not in use. DO NOT steam autoclave. DO NOT gas sterilize with (ETO) Ethylene Oxide. DO NOT immerse Air-Oxygen Blender into any liquid.

SECTION 2: TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION The Air-0xygen Blender is a medical device used to mix Medical Air and USP Oxygen into a gas source ranging from 21% - 100% oxygen. The inlet gas connections are standard DISS or NIST for each gas. The inlets are clearly marked and labeled on the bottom of the Blender. The outlets are standard DISS male oxygen connections. The front panel of the Blender is designed has a dial that is used to set the specific FIO2 blend. The dial settings range from 21% oxygen to 100% oxygen.
The Path of the Gases
The supply enters through the air and oxygen inlet connectors located on the bottom of the Blender. Each inlet connector contains a particulate filter and duckbill check valves which prevent possible reverse gas flow.
Diaphragm Housing Module
The two gases then enter the two-stage pressure Diaphragm Housing Module. In this module, the pressures of both gas sources are equalized prior to entering the Proportioning Module. The pressure is equalized at the lower pressure. The diaphragm within the module responds to the difference in pressure and directs the movement of each check valve assembly contained within the air and oxygen chambers. The movement of each ball adjusts the amount of gas flowing through the Diaphragm Housing Module, equalizing the air and oxygen pressures to the lower pressure.
Proportioning Module
From the Diaphragm Housing Module the gases flow into the Proportioning Module and are mixed according to the oxygen percentage selected on the Oxygen Concentration Dial. The Proportioning Module consists of a double ended valve positioned between two valve seats. One seat controls the passage of air and the other valve seat controls the passage of oxygen into the outlet. At this point, the two gases have been blended according to the oxygen percentage selected on the Oxygen Concentration Dial. With the Oxygen Concentration Dial at the full counterclockwise position (21%), the double ended valve will completely close off the flow of oxygen, allowing only the air to flow. By adjusting the Oxygen Concentration Dial to the full clockwise position (100%), the flow of air is blocked, permitting only the flow of oxygen through the Blender outlet.
Alarm and Alarm Bypass
An audible alarm located on the bottom of the Blender that signals when the difference in pressure between the two inlet gasses exceeds 20 psi. When the two source gases are near equal in pressure, the alarm bypass poppet is positioned over the bypass channel, blocking the flow of both gases. The poppet will remain seated for unequal pressures up to 20 psi (1.41 kg/cm2). Once a 20 psi (1.41 kg/cm2) difference is sensed by the poppet, the higher gas pressure will overcome the spring force and pressure will overcome the spring force and pressure at its opposite end, thus creating a path for gas (air or oxygen) to flow into the alarm channel. The gas with the higher pressure will also flow directly to the Blender outlet port by passing the Balance and Proportioning Modules. The gas is also directed to the bottom of the unit to the reed alarm, thus creating and audible warning. The oxygen concentration will be that of the gas at the higher pressure. The Blender in the alarm/bypass mode will deliver the oxygen (100%) or air (21%) until the bypass mechanism resets when the source gas pressure is restored to a differential of approximately 6 psi (0.42 kg/cm2). If the Blender is set at 21% and the OXYGEN source pressure is reduced sufficiently to produce a 20 psi (1.41 kg/cm2) or greater differential, the unit will not alarm because it will continue to deliver 21% concentration according to the setting. If the control is moved slightly from the 21% setting, the alarm will sound. Similarly, if the Blender is set to deliver 100% oxygen concentration and AIR source pressure is reduced or lost, the unit will not alarm because it will continue to deliver the selected 100% concentration. The alarm will not function when there is no flow to the Blender. Air / Oxygen Blender Service Manual

(Reference Operational Verification Procedure #’s 2 & 3 in Table, page 16 or 27.) 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. Place the free end of the oxygen supply hose under water. Gradually increase 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 bubbles indicate leakage. 4. Repeat steps 1-3 to check for leakage past the air inlet check valve. 5. Reconnect the air inlet hose and adjust both supply pressures back to standard inlet pressure. 1. Set air and oxygen inlet pressures to 50 psi. 2. Set flow to 9 lpm. 3. Turn Adjustment Shaft counterclockwise until the Oxygen Analyzer/Monitor displays a concentration equal to that of the source air (±0.3), reference Part A in Setup. 4. Attach knob guide assembly onto adjustment shaft of proportioning valve assembly so that the knob stop rests on top of the screw. Ensure knob stop aligns with the slot in the resistance ring. 5. While applying downward pressure to the 2 screws on the knob guide assembly, attach nut to adjustment shaft using nut driver. 6. Turn knob guide fully clockwise, Oxygen Analyzer/Monitor display should be equal to concentration of the source oxygen (±0.3). 7. Turn knob guide back to 21% position to ensure no drift from original reading (±0.3). 8. Re-attach knob guide, torque nut to adjustment shaft and tighten to 10 in-lbs using a torque driver. 9. Snap in knob back into knob guide, pay close attention to the key location of the knob. 10. Set knob to 60 graduation. 11. Replace the top cover. NOTE:
