Part No 1154245 9 Perfecto2™
SECTION 1—IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Radio Frequency Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with EMC limits specified by IEC/
EN 60601-1-2. These limits are designed to provide a reasonable protection against
electromagnetic interference in a typical medical installation.
Other devices may experience interference from even the low levels of electromagnetic
emissions permitted by the above standards. To determine if the emissions from the
Perfecto2 is causing the interference, turn the Perfecto2 Off. If the interference with the
other device(s) stops, then the Perfecto2 is causing the interference. In such rare cases,
interference may be reduced or corrected by one of the following measures:
• Reposition, relocate, or increase the separation between the equipment.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
other device(s) is connected.
Avoid creation of any spark near medical oxygen equipment. This includes sparks from
static electricity created by any type of friction.

I/
SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Verification of Battery Free Power Loss Alarm
Check the Perfecto2 concentrator for proper operating conditions.
1. If the unit has been in below-freezing temperatures, allow it to warm up to room
temperature before operating.
2. The concentrator may need to be turned on for four to five seconds to charge the
Battery Free Power Loss Alarm. Connect power cord to outlet and turn the
concentrator on. Turn flow control knob counterclockwise and flow will begin
IMMEDIATELY. Set flow rate to five L/min. Let the unit run for 30 minutes, then turn
unit off.
3. Unplug the power cord and press On/Off ( ) switch to the On ( ) position. An
intermittent audible alarm will sound. This confirms proper operation of the Battery
Free Power Loss Alarm. Turn On/Off switch Off ( ).
4. Connect power cord to outlet and turn on concentrator. Unit will beep on start-up.
5. Check the oxygen concentration per specifications after 30-40 minutes running time.
Sequence of Operation
Turning On ( ) the power switch applies 230 VAC to the compressor motor, hour meter,
transformer, cooling fan and the printed circuit (P.C.) board.
Room air enters the compressor via the cabinet filter and the compressor inlet filter. The
air is compressed by the WOB-L pistons in the compressor to a pressure of 144.79 kPa (21
p.s.i.).
As increased pressure creates increased temperature, a heat exchanger is used to lower
the temperature before the air enters the 4-way valve. It is then channeled to a sieve bed
containing the adsorption material. Restriction downstream of the sieve bed causes
pressure to build up inside the sieve bed which is necessary for the adsorption process. A
small amount of relatively pure oxygen enters the top of the second bed through a
restrictive leak in the pressure equalization (P.E.) valve with the balance entering a storage
tank. The nitrogen removed is exhausted back from the bed through the 4-way valve into
room air. A muffler is located at the exhaust end of the valve to muffle the sound of the
exhaust as it exits the concentrator.
The oxygen not being used to exhaust is channeled into the storage tank. The pressurized
oxygen is regulated down to 34.4 kPa (5 p.s.i.), enters an accurate flow-measuring device,
flows through Outlet HEPA filter and check valve, then out to the patient.
Part No 1154245 11 Perfecto2™
SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
I/
The electrical activation of the 4-way Valve is accomplished every 8 to 15 seconds by the
pressure sensor and P.C. Board electronics when the pressure reaches a set point of 144.79
kPa (21 p.s.i.) output flows 4 L/min and above or 110.32 kPa (16 p.s.i.) output flows 3 L/
min and below. The time between cycles is dependent on altitude, flow rate and internal
environmental factors.
A P.E. valve opens just prior to the shift of the 4-way valve. This allows highly
concentrated oxygen to enter the just exhausted bed from the top. This additional
pressure allows the bed to start its cycle at a higher pressure. The P.E. valve will close just
after the shift of the 4-way valve.
If main power is lost, the Battery Free Power Loss Alarm will sound a short "BEEP", with
a long pause after. All units are equipped with a diagnostic alarm system that signals if
the pneumatic pressure or electrical systems malfunction. The troubleshooting guide in
this manual explains the alarm system signals and reasons, in detail. Refer to
Trou bleshooting
on page 15.
SensO2 Oxygen Sensor Technology - Ceramic Zirconia
Sensor
Technical Description
The oxygen being produced by the concentrator flows out of the product tank and into
the flowmeter. A small flow of oxygen produced by the unit is sent through a precision
orifice to the oxygen sensor mounted on the printed circuit board.
As the oxygen enters the sensor, it passes through a screen and contacts the sensing disk.
Electric current flowing through a metal film resistor heats the disk in excess of 300° C.
Oxygen molecules contact the electrode of the disk and pick-up extra electrons to become
oxygen ions. These oxygen ions are attracted to the electrode on the bottom of the zirconia
sensing disk. Because of the crystal structure of the zirconia, only oxygen ions can pass
through. When the oxygen ions reach the bottom electrode, the extra electrons are
released from the oxygen ions and oxygen molecules return to the air. The number of
electrons is directly related to the oxygen concentration. The electrons travel to the P.C.
board where they are counted and the oxygen concentration reading is calculated.
A microprocessor on the P.C. board contains software that interprets the signal being
received from the sensor. It compares the signal to clinically acceptable limits. Signals
outside of the clinically acceptable limits generate responses in the form of lights, audible
indicators, and/or system shut-down.
Operating Sequence
Once the power switch has been turned on ( ), the SensO2 circuit will wait five minutes
for the concentrator to begin producing clinically acceptable oxygen and the oxygen
sensor to stabilize. The GREEN light will illuminate (indicating normal system operation)
while the oxygen sensor is warming up.
Perfecto2™ 12 Part No 1154245
SECTION 2—INSTALLATION/SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
After five minutes, if the oxygen purity exceeds 85% ± 2%, the GREEN light will continue
to illuminate.
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% after the first five minutes, the system will
continue to monitor the O2 and wait for a maximum of 30 minutes from start-up to reach
85% ± 2% before activating an alarm. Environmental factors such as low voltage, high
altitude, or age of the machine will affect the time required to reach 85% ± 2%.
If the oxygen level is not above 85% ± 2% within the first 30 minutes, the oxygen
concentration alarm sequence will activate and the unit will shut down.
When oxygen concentration is above 85% ± 2%, the sensor measures oxygen purity every
10 minutes. If a reading falls below 85% ± 2%, a YELLOW light will illuminate. If the
oxygen purity falls below 73% ± 3% the RED light/Alarm/Shut-Down mode will activate.
