Principles of functions

The B30 monitor is a modular multiparameter patient monitor. The monitor is especially designed for monitoring in PACU, ED, Wards, Step down units, ICU, CCU and OR in regions where anesthesia gas monitoring is not required. It can also be used during transportation within the hospital.

The modular design makes the system flexible and easy to upgrade.

System introduction

The B30 monitor system may consist of the elements shown below.

NOTE: Your system may not include all these components. Consult your local representative for the available components.

	(2)	Printer (network printer only)
	(3)	Other monitors in the network. NOTE: You cannot view other monitors on the B30 with L-
		DICU08 software.
	NOTE: The allowed cables, batteries, transducers and accessories for the monitor are
	listed in the “Supplies and Accessories” catalog delivered with the monitor.
WARNING	If you accidentally drop the monitor, modules or frames, have them
	checked by authorized service personnel prior to clinical use.
WARNING	Connect only one patient to the monitor at a time.
WARNING	Do not use the monitor without manufacturer approved mounting
	attached.
