Section 1 Introduction
This manual describes the use and operation of the
Novametrix Medical Systems Inc.
The
Model 511
measurement and displays for functional pulsatile oxygen saturation (SpO
The monitor is powered from four standard AA size alkaline batter ies, or may be connected
to an optional external power source for continuous mains operation.
Numerical SpO
A pulsatile signal activity bar, battery strength indicator, and general alarm indicators are
also displayed on the LCD. The
controls display illumination, and an alarm key that enables/disables audible alarms, and
sets alert limits.
Model 511 monitors (Cat. No. 6416-00) are av ail abl e with a serial comm unicat ions op t ion
which allows patient trend information to be downloaded into the Novametrix
Data Archive System or other communicating devices. Interfacing between the
communicating device and the monitor is via a simple cable connection. See “Serial
Communication Option” on page 23 for more information.

and Pulse Rate information is pres ented on a liquid crys tal display (LCD).

Principles of Operation
The
Model 511
infrared light sources, called LEDs. Since oxygen saturated blood absorbs different
amounts of light at each wavelength (red and infrared) as compared to unsaturated blood,
the amount of light absorbed by the blood in each pulse can be used to calculate oxygen
saturation.
The light energy from red (660 nm) and infrared (940 nm) LEDs is beamed through a
sample cell—a pulsating vascular bed, the patient’s finger or toe for example. The
remaining light energy not absorbed by the sample cell reaches a light receptor, ca lled a
photodiode, on the opposing side of the sensor. The data received at the photodiode is sent
back to the monitor where it is split into its red and infrared components, digit ized,
processed by a microprocessor chip, and finally displayed as a numerical value for oxygen
saturation and a plethysmogram.
The
Model 511
“fractional” saturation value displayed by most co-oximeters. Functional saturation
represents the amount of oxyhemoglobin as a percentage of the hemoglobin that can be
