For decades, Weinmann has developed, manufactured and distributed equipment for emergency
medicine, oxygen therapy and inhalation therapy.
In 1972, Weinmann introduced the first
MEDUMAT emergency ventilator to the market.
MEDUMAT emergency ventilators are automatic
resuscitators. They are used for controlled respiration in emergency medicine, e.g. in the event of
acute ventilatory disorders, and for secondary obstructions.
The new generation of equipment, which was
especially developed to meet the requirements of
users, offers users and patients an enhanced level
of safety. An intelligent alarm system monitors the
patient's breathing and notifies the user of any malfunctions. Hence, this technology offers even greater safety and reliability during respiration.
The aim of these service and repair instructions is
to familiarise you, as a knowledgeable expert, with
the MEDUMAT in terms of function, technology
and repairs. In conjunction with the training you
have already received from Weinmann, you are
now a "trained, qualified expert" and are able to
instruct your clients correctly, rectify faults yourself,
and perform the functional checks described in the
instructions for use, as well as conduct any repairs
which may be necessary, as outlined in these service and repair instructions.
In the event of a guarantee claim, MEDUMAT should
be returned to Weinmann.
To enable us to process any guarantee or goodwill
claims, please return the consumer's proof of
purchase (invoice) together with the device.
Repairs and maintenance work must be carried out
only by Weinmann or by knowledgeable experts.
You are responsible for all repairs performed by
yourself and the warranty thereof!
Only original Weinmann spare parts should be used
for repair purposes.
Please remember:
Your customer trusts you and relies on your expertise, just as you rely on Weinmann.

2. Description of ventilator
2.1 Uses
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p is an automatic (short-term) ventilator.
You can use MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p:
•to revive patients at the site of an emergency
•on a longer term basis in more protracted
emergencies, e.g. fires.
You can use MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p whilst
transporting patients:
•between the various rooms and departments
of a hospital;
•between the hospital and other premises;
•in emergencies;
•when transport over a considerable distance is
planned.
2.2 Ventilation function
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p operates within a pressure range of 2.7 to 6 bar and at a flow rate of not
less than 70 l/min O2. It has a built-in power
pack.
The gas used for ventilation is highly compressed
medical oxygen, which is reduced to the required
operating pressure by a two-stage external pressure reducer. The oxygen supply is fed in at input
valve 10.
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p:
•is designed to provide controlled ventilation to
persons of 10 kg body weight or more;
•is used to treat respiratory arrest;
•can be preset to parameters that ensure evenly
balanced ventilation provided that the selected
maximum ventilation pressure P
is not ex-
max
ceeded.
•can be supplied with additional modules for
aspiration and oxygen inhalation. (N.B.
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p cannot be used
as a ventilator simultaneously with these modules)
p
c
i

/I
O
The continuously adjustable ventilation settings and
the inspiration/expiration ratio of1:1.67 are regulated internally by electronic control processes.
The gas for inspiration flows along the hose and
through the patient valve and either the mask or the
tracheal tube into the patient’s airways. The patient
valve is fitted with a lip membrane that enables expired gas to be conducted away through the expiration tube.
6Description of ventilator
At the normal Air Mix setting, atmospheric air is admixed to give an O2-concentration of between
55% and 85% at 10 mbar ventilation pressure
(see “9.2 O2 content when using Air Mix“ on
page 55).
In certain indications and in cases where the surrounding atmosphere is contaminated, you can
switch to No Air Mix and ventilate with pure oxygen.
The injector unit is switched off when switching
from Air Mix to No Air Mix. This increases minute
volume which can result in the set pressure limit being exceeded and a stenosis alarm (Stenosis) being
triggered. In this case, set minute volume correspondingly lower.
In the opposite instance, in other words when
switching from No AirMix to Air Mix, the injector
unit is switched on. This reduces minute volume
which can lead to the set pressure limit being un-
dershot. In this case, set minute volume correspond-
ingly higher.
You can check the course of the ventilation on pressure gauge 1.

14Final Check
4. Servicing
N.B.
Always remember to carry out a technical safety check of the ventilator after every repair.
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p must be serviced regularly.
We recommend having all maintenance work, servicing and repairs carried out either by the manufacturer
Weinmann or by a qualified agent expressly authorised by that company.
4.1 Intervals and Scope
Every 2 years:
Every 2 years, you must subject the device (including patient valve and tube system) to a technical safetycheck
and maintenance.
The servicing and inspection may also be carried out by the manufacturer Weinmann.
The following points should be observed:
•Check that the equipment is complete
•Visual check for:
– physical or mechanical damage
– correct markings on controls
– damage to all external hoses
•Replacement of worn components/
compulsory change parts (see “7.2 Maintenance set” on page 49);
•Check of system components: portable system, oxygen supply fittings, secretion suction
system, hose connections etc.
•Check test bag.
•Repeat testing of aluminium oxygen bottles
WM 1821 and WM 3621 by the Technical
Testing Association. The specified testing date
is stamped on the shoulder of the bottle.
•Final check in accordance with Test Instructions/
Test Report STK WM 22671 (see „3. Final Check“
on page 8 and see “11. Repair and inspection
log” on page 57).
Every 4 years:
•Servicing of the fittings in the oxygen supply system (e.g. pressure reducer) either by the manufacturer or
by a qualified agent expressly authorised by him.
Every 10 years:
•Repeat testing of the conventional steel or aluminium oxygen bottles by the Technical Testing Association.
The specified testing date is stamped on the shoulder of the bottle.
Servicing15
4.2 Batteries and fuses
MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p is fitted with two batteries which must always be changed together:
A button cell CR2430 17 supplies the electronics
with auxiliary power if the capacity of the main
battery 19 is exhausted. This means that an alarm
can still be activated in the event of sudden failure
of the main battery. The device switches to expiration.
As a general rule, the capacities of the batteries
are designed in such a way that under normal usage conditions, they do not need to be changed
during the 2-year servicing intervals. Within the
context of the prescribed 2-year servicing, the batteries are replaced completely.
We recommend that the batteries be changed
only by the manufacturer Weinmann or by authorised specialists explicity authorised by them, since
special precautions must be taken to protect the
electronics (see “6.6 Changing the batteries” on
page 23)).

„6.7 Replacing the fuse“ on page 24.
4.3 Adjusting the pressure gauge
In the idle state, with MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p deactivated and the oxygen cylinder closed, the needle of
the pressure gauge must point precisely to “0”.
To adjust the needle, proceed as follows:
1. Carefully lever out the plastic cover of the adjusting screw.
2. Adjust the needle with the adjusting screw
using a small screwdriver.
3. Re-insert the plastic cover.

16Servicing
4.4 Storage
If you are not intending to use MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p for a long period, we recommend the following
storage precautions:
1. Clean and disinfect the ventilator (see
“5. Hygienic preparation” of the description
and operating instructions for MEDUMAT).
2. Store MEDUMAT Basic / Basic p in a dry
place.
4.5 Disposal
Do not dispose of the unit with domestic waste. For proper waste disposal of the equipment, please
contact an approved and certified waste disposal site for electronic goods. Ask your Environmental
Officer or town council for the address.
Important note!
Remember that the ventilator still requires servicing
at the stipulated intervals even when in storage,
otherwise it cannot be used when removed from
storage.
