Chapter 5 – Operation
Gas Flow
With the oxygen and air connections connected and the power switched on, oxygen
and air at 386 kPa (56 psig) flows to the blender. The air passes through a water trap
with an integral filter where any moisture in the air is removed. Oxygen and air are
filtered before entering a non-return valve in the blender. The blender mixes the
oxygen and air in the proportion set by the position of the FiO
blender supplies blended gas between 2.5 and 30 L/min.
The blender incorporates an alarm/bypass module. If a single gas supply fails or
there is an imbalance between the inlet gas pressures exceeding 200 kPa (30 psig),
the module directs the flow through a reed whistle to warn the Operator of the
condition and at the same time connects the inlet gas at the higher pressure to the
blender outlet.
The blended gas is filtered before passing through a flow control to an oxygen
analyzer. The oxygen analyzer utilizes a galvanic fuel cell to measure and display
the measured delivered oxygen concentration.
control valve. The
2
A vent valve on the exhaust manifold incorporates a solenoid operated pilot valve
and a large orifice spool valve. The vent valve is normally held in the open position
by a spring to vent high flow rates with low pressure drops so that the patient
pressure is minimal. The electrically actuated pilot valve is operated by blended gas
so that the vent valve continues to operate if one gas supply is lost.
Blended gas flows through an electronically operated dump valve which is normally
in the closed position. If over pressurization occurs, the sensors detect the condition
and the controller signals the dump valve to open, sounds an alarm buzzer and at
the same time closes the vent valve to rapidly reduce the patient pressure to near
zero. When the over pressure condition stops, the controller signals the vent valve to
open and the dump valve to close.
The NCPAP flowmeter is set by the Operator to the required flow. The flow rate is
shown on the gauge on the flowmeter. When the flowmeter control knob is turned
fully clockwise, the flow of gas is turned off.

The patient pressure is shown on the touch screen and is monitored by a pressure
sensor which sends the signal to the main processor. A zeroing valve automatically
checks the pressure readings against atmospheric pressure to ensure accuracy of
the patient pressure readings.
A mechanical pop-off valve is factory set to limit the delivered pressure to a safe
level sufficient to achieve the maximum required patient pressure at the generator.
Adjustment of the pop-off valve is not required by Operators.
Auxiliary Output (Optional)
Blended gas flows through a fixed flow control and non-return valve to a standard
DISS fitting on the back panel to supply a maximum 15 L/min for delivery to the
patient via other sources.
Inspiratory Pressure
Blended gas passes through a variable outlet flow control and through the NCPAP
Pres high flowmeter. The NCPAP Pres high flowmeter is set by the Operator to the
required flow. The outlet from the NCPAP Pres high flowmeter when not delivering to
the patient flows through a restrictor to exhaust, allowing the flowmeter to be
adjusted without delivering gas to the patient. The flow rate is shown on the gauge
on the flowmeter. When the flowmeter control knob is turned fully clockwise, the flow
of gas is turned off. The flow is directed to the patient via a high speed selector valve
which operates when requested by the NCPAP Pres high timing.
WARNING
The NCPAP Pres high must be adjusted to zero when not required for the
patient.
Triggered BiPhasic
For BiPhasic Tr, a micro controller provides reliable indications of breaths derived
from the patient abdominal respiratory sensor. It sends signals to operate the
NCPAP Pres high valve to provide a timed sigh.
WARNING
Under extreme conditions (minimum supply pressure and maximum gas
demand, including auxiliary output) output flow rates may reduce.
Operation without Electrical Power
The IFSD can be used without electrical power. In this mode, NCPAP Pres low flow

Electronic Functions
Sensors mounted on the valve/sensor PCB monitor pressure, flow rate and oxygen.
Sense signals for each of the valves allow the micro-controller to monitor the valve’s
state and determine whether the valve is connected or short circuited. Current to the
valve sensor PCB is limited via the fuses below a 10 VA limit to ensure safety in a
possible oxygen enriched environment.
The patient trigger PCB interfaces with the main processor PCB via a 20 way head.
Communication between the two PCB’s is via a CAN bus. The main processor PCB
also supplies +5 V power to this PCB and monitors other control signals.

Chapter 6 – Operation
The operating procedures below show the procedures for all models. Reference
should only be made to the procedures for the model in use. Read the Warnings and
Cautions at the beginning of this manual before you start the procedures.
Preparing and Connecting the Equipment
WARNING
Ensure the whistle sounds during gas connection, if not the device may be
faulty and should not be used.
1 Connect the Medical Air and Oxygen hoses to the IFSD connections on the
back panel.
WARNING
Only use the supplied AC cable to connect to the power supply.
2 Connect the power supply cable to a suitable power supply outlet. The green
power light will come on regardless of the position of the power switch.
3 Connect the patient circuit to the IFSD as required. Figure 9 shows a typical
configuration, the actual configuration may vary dependent on the type of ancillary
equipment used and the clinical needs prescribed for the patient. For functional
test purposes, the Generator nasal prongs can be occluded to simulate patient
responses.
4 Connect the transducer module to the sensor and to the IFSD. For functional
test purposes, lightly tap the abdominal respiratory sensor to simulate patient
breathing.

5 Make sure that the water trap is empty. If necessary, empty any water from the
trap (refer to Chapter 3, Maintenance).
6 Gas Flow Pressure Setting
The IFSD provides a virtually constant airway pressure irrespective of patient
demand or expiratory flows via the specially designed generator and nasal prongs. This
is the reason for the IFSDs ability to provided superior NCPAP. The IFSD is subject
to a direct relationship between controlled enriched gas flow and NCPAP pressure.
A nomogram illustrating the relationship between constant airway pressure and flow
settings is shown in Figure 10. Example: 8 L/min gas flow provides 5 cm H
