2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
2.1 Measurement principle
2.1.1 CO2, N2O and Agent measurement
The CO2, N2O, and anesthetic agent gas measurements are based on absorption of infrared light as
it passes through the gas sample in measuring chamber in the photometer. The light absorption is
measured at three wavelengths using an infrared detector. One of the wavelengths is that of the
absorption peak at 4.3 micrometers, the second is that of the N2O absorption peak at 3.9
CO
2
micrometers, and the third is that of the anesthetic agent absorption peak at 3.3 micrometers. The
signal processing electronics receive the signals from the IR detector and demodulate it to get DC
components out of these signals which correspond to the content of each gas in the sample.

2.1.2 O2 measurement
The differential oxygen measuring unit uses the paramagnetic principle in a pneumatic bridge
configuration. The signal picked up with a differential pressure transducer is generated in a
measuring cell with a strong magnetic field that is switched on and off at a frequency of 110 Hz.
The output signal is a DC voltage proportional to the O
gases to be measured.

2.1.3 Agent identification
The anesthetic agent identification bench identifies Halothane, Enflurane, Isoflurane, Desflurane
and Sevoflurane.
The bench measures the spectrum of the gas between 3.24 µm and 3.39 µm. Because the
spectrum of each of the anaesthetic agents is different it is possible to identify them.
The bench consists of an infrared source, a measuring chamber, a rotating filter and a detector. The
peak wavelength of the narrow bandpass filter changes when the angle between the light path and
the filter is changed. When the filter rotates the required spectrum is scanned through. The agent or
a mixture of agents is identified by comparing the measured spectrum with stored reference
spectra.
In anesthesia, CMV (Controlled Mechanical Ventilation) is the mostly used ventilation mode. In this
mode, mechanical breaths are delivered to the patient by a ventilator with a proper tidal volume
(TV), respiration rate (RR), and inspiration/expiration ratio in time (I:E) determined by the settings of
the ventilator.
Delivery of life support gases is based on pressure. However, without knowing volume measured of
exhalation, one cannot be sure that a breath occurred. The ultimate goal of ventilation is to use the
least amount of pressure to generate the most appropriate volume for each breath.
The Patient Spirometry monitors ventilation in anesthesia. Both patient breathing circuit and the
function of the ventilator are monitored. The following parameters are displayed:
Expiratory and inspiratory tidal volume (TV) in ml.
Expiratory and inspiratory minute volume (MV) in l/min.
Expiratory volume in first second (V1.0) in per cent for adults and in 0.5 seconds for children.

is used as a reference in measurement. The pressure measurement is made from the airway part
that is closest to the patient between patient circuit and intubation tube.
The measurement is based on measuring the kinetic gas pressure and is performed using Pitot
effect. Pressure transducer is used to measure the Pitot pressure. The obtained pressure signal is
linearized and corrected according to the density of the gas. Speed of the flow is calculated from
these pressure values and TV value is then integrated. MV value is further calculated a nd averaged
using TV and RR (respiratory rate) values.

Patient Spirometry sensor, D-lite
Patient Spirometry is measured with a specific sensor, D-lite or Pedi-lite.
D-lite and Pedi-lite sensors are designed to measure kinetic pressure by t wo-sided Pitot tube. The
pressure reduction caused by measuring cross is taken into account, too, especially in small flows.
Velocity is calculated from pressure difference according to Bernoulli's equation. Flow is then
Finally the volume information is obtained by integrating the flow signal.

2.2.1 Gas sampling system
The gas sampling system samples the measured air to the module, and removes water and
impurities from it. A sampling line is connected to the water trap on the front panel. The pump
draws gas through the sampling line to gas measuring units. After the measurements, the gas is
exhausted from sample gas out connector on the rear panel of the module.
Water trap, D-fend
The gas sample enters the monitor through the water trap, where it is divided into two flows, main
flow and side flow (see Gas sampling system block diagram). The main flow goes into the
measuring system through a hydrophobic filter.
The side flow creates a slight sub-atmospheric pressure within the water trap container. This
facilitates gathering th e fluid removed by the hydrophobic filter.
Sampling line
The sampling line is an integral part of the total sampling system. The resistance established by the
sampling line is significant when the software determines the occlusion a nd air-leak alarm limits
during the turn-on sequence.
The Nafion
Zero valve
The small inner diameter causes fluids such as blood or mucus not to propagate within the tube, so
that when the line is clogged, it is replaced.
TM
tube
1)
A nafion tube (tubes A or B, and C: see figure 5) is used to balance the sample gas humidity with
that of ambient air. The tube will prevent errors caused by the effect of water vapor on gas partial
pressure when humid gases are measured after calibration with dry gases. It is inserted between
the water trap and the zero valve (G-AiO/A iOV) or between the zero valve and ACX-200 measuring
unit (G-O/OV/AO/AOV). The tube is also inserted between the CO
absorber and the zero valve.

The main flow passes through a solenoid valve before proceeding to the ACX-200 measuring unit.
This valve is activated to establish the zero points for the A CX-200 and O
measuring units at start-

up, at 5 minutes, and after that at regular intervals. After 1-hour monitoring, the auto-zeroing is
performed once an hour. When the valve is activated, room air is drawn through the CO
into the internal system and the gas sensors.

Gas measuring units, ACX-200 and O2 unit
After the zero valve, the gas passes through the ACX-200 and O2 measuring units. In the ACX-200
measuring unit, infrared light is passed through chambers containing the main flow gas
(measurement) and a chamber containing reference gas. The measurement is made by
determining the ratio between the two light intensities.
The oxygen sensor has two inputs. One input accepts the main flow and the other draws in room air
for reference. The sensor uses a differential pressure transducer to compare the pressure gradient
produced when both gases are exposed to an oscillating magnetic field. Both gas flows exit from a
single port.
In i model, the ASX agent identification unit is installed in parallel with the oxygen sensor . The task
of the ASX unit is to identify anesthesia agents by infrared light method used also in the ACX-200
unit.
Pressure valve
The pressure valve is used to meas ure the pressure gradient between the O2 measurement flow
and the O

pressure valve will initiate pressure measurement of the reference flo w. If the gradient is greater
than -5 mmHg, the software triggers the message ’Replace Trap’.

2.2.2 ACX-200 measuring unit
The ACX photometer is of dual path type. The infrared light beam passes through a measuring
chamber containing the gas to be analyzed, and a reference chamber, which is free of CO
and AA. The measurement is made by determining the ratio between the two light intensities.

Figure 9ACX photometer (ACX-200 measuring unit)
A filter wheel is used to control the light from an incandescent lamp that passes through the
photometer. The filters are arranged so that the light is passed sequentially:
• first at the CO
• then through the measuring chamber
• finally it is blocked completely
The same sequence is repeated at the N
absorption wavelength through the reference chamber

After passing through the filters the light is reflected and focused by a mirror onto the infrared
detector. This detector measures the three light levels for each gas described above.
There is an optical sensor incorporated in the photometer which detects light from a reflective
surface on the filter wheel once every revolution. The pu lses from this sensor are us ed to
synchronize the electronics to the signal from the infrared detector. A stabilizing diode measures
the temperature, which is needed to compensate for thermal drifts. The infrar ed detector, the
optical sensor and the stabilizing diode are mounted on the preamplifier board.

2.2.3 OM measuring unit
The oxygen measurement is based on the paramagnetic susceptibility, which is a unique property
of oxygen among all gases generally present in a breathing gas mixture. The gas to be measured
and the reference gas, which usually is room air, are conducted into a gap in an electromagnet with
a strong magnetic field switched on and off at a frequency of approximately 110 Hz.
An alternating differential pressure is generated between the sample and reference inputs due to
forces acting to the oxygen molecules in a magnetic field gradient.
The pressure is measured with a sensitive differential transducer, rectified with a synchronous
detector and amplified to produce a DC voltage proportional to the oxygen partial pressure
difference of the two gases.

2.2.4 ACX measuring board
The measuring electronics can be divided into a few functional blocks, which are described below
(see the block diagram in figure 11).
The ACX Measuring board controls gas measurements. It converts the photometer signal into digital
data, calculates results and transmits it to Gas mother board. The board contains, in addition to
the 80C51FA processor, EPROM, RAM, and EEPROM, several analog and digital I/O functions.
Internal and external bus
The processor has access to the Measuring board peripherals (memory, A/D converter, D/A
converters, etc) via an internal bus. For communication between the Gas mother board and the
Measuring board, there is an external bus in connector X1.
Memory
Memory components include 64k × 8 bit EPROM program memory, 32k × 8 bit low current CMOS
RAM, and EEPROM for permanent calibration values and setup memory.

2.2.5 ASX agent identification bench
The ASX-200 agent identification bench has one measuring chamber. Background compensation
is done by subtracting the background spectrum from the measured signal. Background spectrum
is measured simultaneously with the zeroing of the ACX-200 unit. The resulting spectrum is
analyzed to identify the agent.
The ASX unit requires two calibrations. One is the time between synchronization pulse and
measured spectrum (time offset) of the ASX-200 and the other is the peak wavelength of the
narrow bandpass filter. The former is calibrated automatically together with the gas calibration of
the ACX and the latter is calibrated at the factory.

and then led to the measuring board.
2.2.6 ASX measuring board
The measuring electronics can be divided into a few functional blocks, which are described below
(See the block diagram in figure 13).
The ASX measuring board controls the measurement. It converts the ASX photometer signal to
digital data, calculates results and communicates with the main CPU through a serial channel. The
board contains, in addition to the 80C196 processor, EPROM, RAM, and EEPROM, several analog
and digital I/O functions.

2.2.7 PVX board
When Patient Spirometry is used, special sensors, D-lite or Pedi-lite, replaces the normal airway
adapter in the patient circuit. The spirometry tubing is attached to the two connectors on the sensor
and on the module front panel.
NOTE: Overpressure or negative pressure of more than 300 cmH
should never be applied.
The board is intended to perform the following tasks
• Measure the pressures in airways and the speed of breathing flow.
• Calculate tidal volume, minute volume, compliance and other useful information on patient
lungs.
Pressure transducers
There are two pressure transducers on the PVX board for airway pressure measuring purposes.
The breathing flow of a patient passing through D-lite adapter creates pressure difference. This
pressure difference is measured by pressure transducer, B1. Overpressure and negative pressure
in airways are measured by another pressure transducer B2.
NOTE: Never apply DIFFERENTIAL pressure higher than 25 cmH
sure that both spirometry tubes are always connected.
Temperature compensation
Temperature is measured by B1. This signal is used only for temperature compensation of the
pressure transducer B1 on the PVX board.

User’s Reference Manual
3.4.1 Gas sampling system adjustment
Flow rates should be measured and possibly adjusted under the following conditions:
• After any part within the sampling system has been replaced
• Gas response is slow
NOTE: Adjust the flows with a new, clean D-fend water trap and original Datex-Ohmeda sampling
line.
NOTE: Before adjusting the flows, make sure that there is no leakage in the sampling system.
NOTE: Let the monitor warm up for 30 minutes before measuring flow rates.
For the flow rate measur ements a flowmeter with a low flow r esistance and capability to measure
low flow rates is required. A normal length of sampling line has to be connected to the monitor as it
has a considerable effect on the flow.

The flow rates are adjusted by changing the flow resistance cassettes (constriction cassettes) in the
sampling system. See Table 2 in chapter “

manufactured since autumn 1998.
“Gas sampling system”
3.4.2 Flow rate measurement
If any flow rates are not correct, first replace the D-fend water trap. Then recheck the
incorrect flows before adjusting the flow rates.
The sampling flow rate is measured by a flowmeter at the sampling line. The rate should be
between 180 and 220 ml/min.
The sampling flow rate is adjusted by changing the flow cassette which is located between the
pump and the damping chamber.
Due to two different tubing layouts, if the described location does not contain a flow cassette, the
sampling flow rate is adjusted by changing the flow cassette that is located between the pump and
the sample gas out connector.

Rate of the side flow is checked by blocking the side flow after the water trap and measuring the
flow rate as above. The rate should decrease by 10 to 27 ml/min.
Measurement flow and reference flow of the oxygen measuring unit are checked as follows:
1. Connect the flowmeter behind the flow cassette (no. 2) ahead of the oxygen measuring unit
REF inlet. The flowmeter should show between 25 and 42 ml/min. The flow rate is adjusted
by changing the cassette.
2. Connect the flowmeter between the oxygen measuring unit IN inlet and the tube which is
connected to it. The flow rate should be between 18 and 25 ml/min larger than the REF
flow. This is adjusted by changing the flow cassettes (no. 4 and 5) which are located
between the IN and OUT inlets.
3. Flow rate of CO
absorber is measured by connecting the flowmeter to the unoccupied
2
connector of the flow cassette (no. 1). Make sure that the monitor is in normal situation
(APNEA text on the screen). The flow rate should be zero. When the gas zeroing takes place,
the rate should be between 180 and 220 ml/min. The gas zeroing can be simulated in the
ACX Service Menu manually (pump start, zero valve on). The flow rate is adjusted by
changing the cassette (no. 1).
CAUTION When changing cassettes make sure that the tubes are reconnected properly.

3.4.4 Flow calibration
PVX board is calibrated at the factory and due to the board’s design calibration is not regularly
needed. The calibration data is saved into the board’s EEPROM memory and if the software EPROM
of the board is changed the calibration must be performed. It is recommended to perform the
calibration both with adult values using the D-lite, and with pediatric values using Pedi-lite.
1. Connect a spirometry tube with the D-lite sensor to the airway module. To improve the
accuracy, the endotracheal tube and all accessories which are in normally use should be
attached also during the calibration.
2. Enter service menu (Monitor Setup/Install Service/Service View/Modules).
3. Enter the PVX menu. After the flow is zeroed ('Zero OK' message displayed) attach
calibration pump or spirometry tester to the flow sensor (D-lite or Pedi-lite). Select the
sensor type.
4. Set the calibration volume for adult to 1000 ml and for pediatric to 300 ml.
5. Work on the calibration pump slowly, approximately 1 pump in 5 seconds, pump until
'adjust'-message appears. If you use the spirometry tester, perform the calibration
according to the tester instructions.
6. Adjust the reading to match the calibration volume (1000 ml for the D-lite and 300 ml for
the Pedi-lite).

4.2 Gas sampling system troubleshooting
The faults which can occur in the sampling system are: leaks or blockages in the tubing, failure of
the sampling pump or the magnetic valves, or diminishing of the flow rates because of pump aging
or dirt accumulating in the internal tubing.
The following checks should help in localizing the fault. Whenever suspecting the sampling system
and always after working on the sampling system check and if necessary adjust the flow rates.
The sampling system details are illustrated in figures 5, 6, 7 and 8.
CAUTION The special internal sample tube is mechanically fragile. Sharp bends will cause
leaks.
NOTE: D-fend water trap should be replaced when the OCCLUSION message appears during the
monitor startup.
NOTE: If any liquid has entered the ACX-200 measuring unit due to water trap filter failure, contact
Datex-Ohmeda technical services.
4.2.1 Sampling system leak test
Connect power cord and sampling line. Turn the power on and wait until the initialization is over.
1. Choose ACX service data page in the Gas unit service menu.
2. Connect a tube to the sample out connector and drop its other end into a glass of water.
3. Block the sample inlet, reference flow of the oxygen measuring unit, and the CO
port that draws room air in. Wait for one minute.
There should be less than 1 bubble per 10 seconds coming out of the tube. Bubble should
not move upwards more than 11 mm per 30 seconds inside the tube. If it does, there is a
leak between the pump and the sample out connector.
4. Perform leak test to the CO

CAUTION Do not turn the pump off while performing the leak test. Negative pressure in the
sampling system will suck water in the module.
4.2.2 Water separation
1. Dip the patient end of the sampling line into water quickly (about a half second) three times
at 45 seconds' interval. After that drop the end into water and lift it up when the sampling
line is totally filled with water.
2. Check that all the water goes into the trap container and not into the monitor.
4.2.3 Steam test for the special tubes
Choose Halothane as anesthetic agent and let the monitor sample room air. Then quickly feed air
of 100 % relative humidity (for instance from a kettle in which you are boiling water) to the monitor.
If the digital reading jumps as much as 0.1 % replace the special (Nafion) tubes.

4.3 OM measuring unit troubleshooting
Because of the complex and very sensitive construction of the oxygen measuring unit no repairs
should be attempted inside the unit. Instead, if the fault has been found in the measuring unit
itself, it should be replaced and the faulty unit be sent to Datex-Ohmeda for repair.
In cases of no response to O
or strong drift, check the tubing for loose connections, blockages and
2
leaks.
CAUTION Never apply overpressure to the O2 measuring unit as the pressure transducer may
be permanently damaged.
If the message ‘O2 zero error’ is displayed check the O2 measuring unit output voltage on Gas
mother board (see Section Offset adjustment).
If the adjustment range of the (software) calibration is insufficient check the O
measuring unit

output voltage and adjust the gain if necessary (see Section Gain adjustment).
If there are problems with O
response time check the O2 measurement flow rate and adjust it if
2
necessary (see Section Gas Sampling System Adjustments).
If the O
signal is noisy, check the measurement unit suspension. Frequency adjustment may help

in some cases (see Section Frequency adjustment).
4.4 ACX troubleshooting
CAUTION The measuring unit ACX-200 can be repaired and calibrated only at the factory.
The ACX troubleshooting is carried out in the General Troubleshooting scheme. The ACX testing is
explained at the ACX service information section, please refer to it.
4.4.1 Cleaning the measuring chamber of ACX measuring unit
In case the N2O “zero calibration constant” in Gas Service (ULT) or N2O “calib zero” in ACX Service
(AM/CCM) indicates contamination of the measuring chamber (value 61000 or more), or if the
software will stuck to the “calibrating gas sensor” state due to contaminatio n, it is possible to
attempt the measuring chamber cleaning. However, Datex-Ohmeda recommend exchanging the
measuring unit rather than cleaning.
The measuring chamber should first try to be cleaned by rinsing it with distilled water only. If rinsing
alone is not sufficient the cleaning can be tried with Datex-Ohmeda Cleaning Fluid (85969).
NOTE: Do not use other cleaning agents such as blood gas electrode cleaners. These may damage
the unit.

Calib zero and gain
These values are calibration constants of zero and gain for each gas. The zero values may change
at gas zeroing, the gain values a t gas calibration.
When the monitor performs gas zeroing, the main software will write zero constants for the gases
(CO
, N2O, AA, O2) to the ACX memory. If some dust (or water) has entered the measuring chamber,
2
zeroing of the gases require higher zero constants than before depending on the contamination
level. If some gas requires higher value than 65536 the unit is not able to perform the zeroing and
the message ‘XXX ZERO ERROR’ appears to the error list and the software recalls the previous zero
constant for the concerned gas. If this happens at th e initial start up the soft ware will not pass the

Pressures
Ambient is the ambient pressure measured at the initialization. Work press is the internal pressure

This pressure difference is automatically checked after every gas zeroing and it should be between
5 to 10 mmHg. If the pressure difference turns negative a message ‘Replace trap’ is displayed
when the limit of -5 mmHg is exceeded.
In S-___97 and S-___98 software there is a software flaw in displaying the pres s ure differenc e, OM (in- ref). The flaw does not have any
effect on the functioning of the ACX unit. The operational limit for the ‘Replace Trap’ message is -5 mmHg as in previous S W versions.
The flaw is only in the displaying of the pressure difference value. With S-___97/98 software the pressure difference can be checked in
a following way: turn the pressure valve ON for five seconds. This enables the updating of the OM (ref) value. Turn the pressure valve OFF
and wait for five seconds. Now calculate the difference between Work press and OM (ref).

Flow calibration
PVX board is calibrated at the factory and due to the board’s design calibration is not regularly
needed. The calibration data is saved into the board’s EEPROM memory and if the software EPROM
of the board is changed the calibration must be performed. It is recommended to perform the
calibration both with adult values using the D-lite, and with pediatric values using Pedi-lite.
1. Connect a spirometry tube with the D-lite sensor to the airway module. To improve the
accuracy, the endotracheal tube and all accessories which are in normally use should be
attached also during the calibration.
2. Enter service menu (
3. Enter the PVX menu. After the flow is zeroed (‘Zero OK’ message displayed) attach
calibration pump or spirometry tester to the flow sensor (D-lite or Pedi-lite). Select the
sensor type.
4. Set the calibration volume for adult to 1000 ml and for pediatric to 300 ml.
5. Work on the calibration pump slowly, approximately 1 pump in 5 seconds, pump until
‘adjust’-message appears. If you use the spirometry tester, perform the calibration
according to the tester instructions.
6. Adjust the reading to match the calibration volume (1000 ml for the D-lite and 300 ml for
the Pedi-lite).
