oxygen reading continues to drop after each use in nitrous oxide the sensor should be removed from service. If the sensor can no longer be calibrated or if there is any sign of electrolyte leakage, the sensor should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations and the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) available through Teledyne.
2.3.6 Cleaning
The
The oxygen analyzer, oxygen sensor, and sensor interconnection cable may be cleaned by wiping the surfaces with isopropyl alcohol or a mild cleaning solution.
Before placing instrument in operation make sure all surface are dry and unit is properly calibrated.
When cleaning do not allow liquids or moisture to enter the instrument or sensor internal cavities. Do not allow the cleaning solution to come in contact with the electrical connections. Do not immerse the instrument, oxygen sensor or sensor interconnection cable in water or any other liquid.
Do not expose the instrument, oxygen sensor and interconnection cable to steam, ethylene oxide, or radiation sterilization.
2.4 Do’s and Don’ts
– DO –
•Read all of the directions before using for the first time.
•Calibrate every 8 hours or before every use.
•Visually inspect the sensor for leakage before each use.
•Calibrate using 100% oxygen and check in air.
•Test batteries regularly and replace when battery indicator shows low battery (no bars remaining)
•Make sure keys are locked by using the LOCK/UNLOCK key feature.
•Keep the unit, sensor and connections dry, or on the dry side of the breathing circuit.
•Recalibrate after replacing the batteries.
