You can operate the ventilator using an external battery, detachable battery, or the internal battery.

External Battery

The ventilator can operate from a 12 VDC deep cycle marine-type (lead acid) battery using the Philips Respironics Trilogy External Battery Cable. This cable is pre-wired and properly terminated to ensure safe connection of an external battery to the ventilator. Battery operating time depends on the characteristics of the battery and usage of the device.

Due to a variety of factors, including battery chemistry, battery age, and use profile, the capacity of the external battery as shown on the device display is only an estimate of the actual remaining capacity.

Refer to the instructions supplied with the Philips Respironics Trilogy External Battery Cable for detailed information on how to operate the device using an external battery.

CAUTION

Do not use the same external battery to operate both the ventilator and any other equipment such as power chairs.

CAUTION

An external battery should only be connected to the ventilator using the Philips Respironics Trilogy External Battery Cable. This cable is fused, pre-wired and properly terminated to ensure safe connection to a standard deep cycle lead acid battery. Use of any other adapter or cable may cause improper operation of the ventilator.
