Detachable Battery Pack

Philips Respironics offers a detachable Lithium-Ion battery pack. To use the detachable battery pack, snap the battery into place on the back of the ventilator, as shown in the following illustration. When the device is not connected to an AC power source or an external battery, the detachable battery will power the device, if attached. The length of time the ventilator will operate on battery power depends on many factors such as device settings, battery charge level, and condition or age of the battery. When fully charged, a new battery can power the ventilator for approximately three hours under typical patient conditions.

Whenever the ventilator is connected to AC power, it will automatically recharge the detachable battery pack. A completely discharged detachable battery will reach 80% charge status within 8 hours, when charging at approximately 23˚ C ambient temperature.

Insert and securely latch the detachable battery into the device as shown below.
