V26CT/V24CT Power Supply

The V24CT and V26CT are powered by an external AC (line power) or by their own internal battery power supply. Your monitoring needs will determine which power source is used. We recommend that you plug the monitor into line or AC power whenever the monitor is not being moved or used, or for long term bedside monitoring. When transporting a patient or when monitoring in a remote area, where AC power is not feasible, use battery power.

Warning

	Do not disconnect the power cord from the monitor and leave it
	connected to the AC power source. This could cause damage to
	the power cord. Instead, keep the power cord connected to the
	monitor and unplug it from the AC power source.
	The power cord must be inspected periodically for cracks or
	exposed metal parts. Replace immediately if there are any
	cracks, exposed metal parts, or any other signs of wear and tear.
Battery
	The V24CT and V26CT can be powered by 1 or 2 sealed 12 Volt lead-acid
Power	batteries with capacity. The rate of battery discharge is dependent on
Supply	temperature and power load. The power load is a function of the
	number and type of parameter modules as well as parameter settings
	being used. The battery life for the V24CT and V26CT ranges from
	approximately 30 minutes for a fully loaded system operating on one
	new and fully charged battery to:
	• approximately 1 hour for a fully loaded system operating on two
	new and fully charged batteries when loaded with the following
	parameter modules:
	ECG/Resp, NBP, SpO2, Pressure, Recorder and
	• approximately 1 hour 15 minutes for a minimally loaded system
	operating on two new and fully charged batteries when loaded
	with the following parameter modules:
	ECG/Resp, NBP, SpO2, Pressure.
