General Measurement Principles1Introduction
General Measurement Principles
The M1026B Anesthetic Gas Module uses a technique called Dispersive Infrared (DIR) absorption to
measure the concentration of certain gases. The gases measured by the M1026B Anesthetic Gas
Module (except oxygen) absorb infrared (IR) light and each gas has its own absorption characteristic.
The gas is transported into a sample cell. A diffraction grating is used to scan the relevant wavelength
range of the IR light that passes through the sample cell. The higher the concentration of gas the more
IR light is absorbed, and from the amount of IR light measured, the concentration of gas present can
be calculated.
Individual gases have an individual spectral fingerprint. A mathematical algorithm is used to analyze
the spectrum and to identify and quantify the anesthetic agents in the gas.
Oxygen is measured by an additional sensor in the M1026B Anesthetic Gas Module using its
paramagnetic properties.

• DIR optics.
Main PC Board
The electronics subsystem, with memory (FLASH & RAM), multiplexers, A-D converter, and power
line supervision, is responsible for the following functions:
• The acquisition and processing of data from, and control of, the anesthesia gas measurement
analyzer.
• The acquisition and processing of data from the oxygen analyzer.
• Controlling the pneumatic system.
• Controlling the communications between the M1026B and the host monitoring system.
The M1026B electronics subsystem has one communications channel, connected to an external RS232
port.
The M1026B functionality is controlled by Flash Memory resident software.
Power Supply
The input voltage is 100V - 240V. The output voltages are ±12V and +3.3V.
Pneumatic System
The main parts of the pneumatic system are:
• Watertrap.
• Pneumatics assembly including:
– pump outlet filter
– two flow restrictors
– four bacterial filters
– three solenoid valves
– dampening volumes
•Pump
12
Page 13
Theory of Operation1Introduction
Figure 2Pneumatic System
Pump
The pneumatic system works in the following way:
1Eliminates residual water and fluids from patient sample gas using the watertrap.
2Splits the patient’s sample gas flow (150ml/min) into the measurement path (120ml/min) and
drainage path (30ml/min).
3Passes the patient’s sample gas in the measurement path at 120ml/min through the measurement
bench (O2 analyzer, DIR Head).
4Delivers zero calibration gas to the sample cells for the periodic zeroing.
5Exhausts the patient’s sample gas, the zero calibration gas, and the span calibration gas.
6Monitors for an occlusion in the sampling pneumatics.
The software-controlled pump generates the flow through the system and pulls the gas from the airway
adapter through the measurement subsystems to the exhaust outlet. It also delivers the zero calibration
gas to the sample cells of the measurement subsystems for the periodic zero procedures and it exhausts
the patient’s sample gas, the zero calibration and field calibration gases.
The flow-rate control logic drives the pump as hard as necessary to maintain the selected flow rate. A
partial occlusion or an inefficient pump results in the pump being driven harder. A serious occlusion
results in the pump being driven at or near its maximum load. This triggers a logic, which then reports
an occlusion.
13
Page 14
1IntroductionTheory of Operation
Watertrap
Figure 3Watertrap
The watertrap consists of two water separation filters, two water fuses and a water reservoir. The gas
sample coming from the patient may contain fluids which are separated from the gas at the first water
separation filter. The gas is then split into two paths, the “measurement” path with the main part of the
total gas flow (including water vapor) continuing on the “dry” side of the separation filter and the
“drainage” path (containing any liquid droplets) with the smaller amount of the total flow continuing
on the “wet” side of this filter through the water reservoir. At the pump both gas paths are recombined.
The watertrap proper includes “water fuses” in both the “measurement” and the “drainage” paths,
consisting of a material that swells when getting wet (when the reservoir is full or when fluid penetrates
the separation filter and enters the “measurement” path) and blocks the respective path at the inlet of
the unit. Once the “water fuses” are blown, any passage of fluid is blocked and the gas flow resistance
increases so that an occlusion is detected.
Sample Flow Through the Pneumatic Path
The drainage path serves to withdraw fluid separated at the first water separation filter from the gas
sample into the watertrap reservoir.The drainage path leads into the large watertrap reservoir where all
liquid water and other fluids are collected. When the drainage path leaves the watertrap through a
water separation filter and a through a water fuse it leads through a bacterial protection filter and flow
restrictor directly to the pump. This flow restrictor determines the percentage distribution between
drainage and measurement path flow.
14
Page 15
Theory of Operation1Introduction
The measurement path leads through the first water separation filter and through a water fuse on into
the measurement system. The patient sample gas (on the measurement path) then flows through a
bacterial protection filter to solenoid valve #0. Room air for the zero calibration is alternatively input
(via a filter) to this solenoid valve. The solenoid valve switches between the two gases depending on the
current mode of operation - normal measurement or zero calibration.
The patient sample gas or zero calibration gas then flows through the measurement subassemblies:
– the DIR Measurement Assembly (for measurement of anesthetic agent, CO
–the O
From here it is passed to the flow sensor which consists of a differential pressure transducer and a flow
restrictor. The flow sensor determines, stabilizes and limits the flow rate of the sampled gas.
Then the patient sample gas or zero calibration gas flows to the pump. Before reaching solenoid valve
#2 and the pump, it joins the drainage path again.
After the gas has passed through solenoid valve #1 it is routed through a filter to the Sample Gas
output. Alternatively, the zero gas is output to the zero gas outlet port by this solenoid valve.

The signal generated by the photocells is passed to a feedback system which passes a current around a
wire mounted on the suspension. This causes a motor effect which keeps the suspension in its original
position. The current flowing around the wire is directly proportional to the concentration of oxygen
within the gas mixture.

Theory of Operation1Introduction
The DIR Head Assembly
Figure 4Anesthetic Gas Module DIR Head Assembly
The DIR head functions as follows:
The infrared light source is a tungsten filament lamp.
The Anesthetic Gas Module sample cell is constructed of a glass tube with a highly reflective gold
coated internal surface that serves as a light pipe. The sample cell length is designed to provide an
adequate absorption length to obtain the desired signal-to-noise ratio for the weakest anticipated
absorption. Sapphire serves as the sample cell window material for the two ends of the sample cell.
The gas sample to be analyzed enters the sample cell through the gas inlet and leaves it through the gas
outlet. While in the cell, the gas sample is penetrated by light from the infrared light (IR) source. This
light is dispersed via a single diffraction grating. The attached brushless DC rotary actuator working in
tune with an encoding mechanism ensures that the grating is always in the correct position. The
dispersed light is reflected by a mirror and lastly hits a dual filter/detector package.
Software then takes the data from the scan of the dispersed component wavelengths to produce a
characteristic curve, its shape determined by the relative concentrations of different gases in the sample.
A thermistor in the outlet gas stream measures the sample gas temperature. A transducer measures
sample gas pressure. Knowledge of sample gas pressure and sample gas temperature is vital for accurate
gas measurements.
Zero calibration capability is provided to maintain long-term, stable gas concentration measurement.

Power Supply Requirements
The system and the Anesthetic Gas Module can both be operated from an AC supply of 100 - 240V
±10%, 50 - 60Hz.
Grounding the System
To protect the patient and hospital personnel, the cabinet of the installed equipment has to be
grounded. The equipment is supplied with a detachable 3-wire cable which grounds the instrument to
the power line ground (protective earth) when plugged into an appropriate 3-wire receptacle. If a 3wire receptacle is not available, consult the hospital electrician.
WARNINGDo not use a 3-wire to 2-wire adapter.
Equipotential Grounding
Protection class 1 instruments are already included in the protective grounding (protective earth)
system of the room by way of grounding contacts in the power plug. For internal examinations on the
heart or the brain, Computer Module and Display Module of the System and the Philips M1026B
Anesthetic Gas Module must have separate connections to the equipotential grounding system.
One end of the equipotential grounding cable (potential equalization conductor) is connected to the
equipotential grounding terminal on the instrument’s rear panel and the other end to one point of the
equipotential grounding system. The equipotential grounding system assumes the safety function of
the protective grounding conductor if ever there is a break in the protective grounding system.
24
Examinations in or on the heart (or brain) should only be carried out in rooms designed for medical
use incorporating an equipotential grounding system.

Write "Empty" on the cylinder and place it with your scrap metal or, if you do not collect scrap
metal for recycling, dispose of the cylinder.
Flowrate Check
1Before starting a flowrate check, get an ambient pressure reading by:
a. performing a zero calibration
b. performing a pneumatic check to update temperature and pressure data
c.selecting the Temperature and Pressure Data from the Data pull down menu and
clicking on send.
The Ambient Pressue (mmHg) field in that window provides the ambient pressure that should be used
for correcting the electronic mass flowmeter reading.
2Connect a flowmeter to the flow split test fixture.
3Check the measurement path flowrate at low flow and high flow.
4If you are using the electronic flowmeter M1026-60144, correct the reading for each step
according to the following formula:
or: in order to get the actual reading for a desired flowrate:
Flowrate in each mode
Low flow96 ml/min+/- 5ml/min
High flow160 ml/min+/- 8ml/min
If the flowrate is out of tolerance, perform a flow calibration.
Total Flowrate Check
1Restart the M1026B Anestehtic Gas Module.
2Connect the Anesthetic Gas Module to the patient monitor.
3Measure the total flowrate at the watertrap. It should be 150 +/- 15 ml/min. If it is out of tolerance,
troubleshoot the pneumatics assembly.

WARNINGFailure to implement a satisfactory maintenance schedule by the individual, hospital or institution
responsible for the operation of this equipment may cause equipment failure and possible health
hazards.
This chapter describes the Preventive Maintenance tasks (PMs) required to keep the Philips M1026B
Anesthetic Gas Module in good working order. PMs are performed to a timetable before problems
arise as a means to reduce failures.
A test and inspection matrix which explains when and how to perform safety and performance tests is
included at the end of the chapter.
4
All checks that require the instrument to be opened must be made by qualified service personnel.
CAUTIONTake precautions when dealing with potentially contaminated parts, such as tubing and other
components of the patient circuit. Wear gloves, mask and gown while handling components that come
into contact with the patient’s exhalant gas or fluids.
Preventive Maintenance (PM) Tasks
Here is a list of the PM tasks required to ensure satisfactory operation of the Philips M1026B
Anesthetic Gas Module within its specified limits and how often they must be performed.
• Check the fan filter for occlusions every 6months.
• Check the fan in the AGM for proper operation every 6months.
• Check the AGM’s accuracy at least once every 12 months, or whenever the validity of the readings is
in doubt. Refer to Checking and Calibrating the Anesthetic Gas Module for details.
• Replace the parts contained in the PM Kit every 24 months.
Check the pump hours during the replacement procedure. If the pump hours exceed 10000 hours,
replace the pneumatic assembly.
• Check electrical safety (ground impedance and enclosure leakage current test) at least every 12
months or every time the device is removed and reinstalled.
47
Page 48
4 Maintaining the Anesthetic Gas ModuleCleaning
Cleaning
Each time the top cover is removed from the AGM for repair or calibration, you should take the
opportunity to clean the inside of the module, as the fan may draw debris such as dust and lint into the
enclosure.
WARNINGSwitch off the instrument and disconnect it from the mains power supply. Take standard electrostatic
precautions. For example, wrist strap connected to electrical ground.
The user should be encouraged to periodically clean the exterior casing of the AGM. The outside of the
gas sample tubing should be cleaned before connecting to the next patient.
Replace PM Parts
Every 24 months the PM parts should be replaced for new with the PM kit. The PM kit comprises:
• 4 bacterial filters
• 1 pump outlet filter
•2 fan filters
•pump tubing kit
• 2 watertrap manifold seals
