Introduction
For many decades WEINMANN has developed, produced and marketed appliances for oxygen therapy, inhalation therapy and emergency medicine.
In 1957 WEINMANN put the first diaphragm pressure reducer on the market.
Pressure reducers are used in medical oxygen inhalation. They reduce the pressure delivered by oxygen bottles from 200 bar to the specified operating pressure.
The flowmeter is used during the inhalation of medical oxygen via the central gas supply system of a hospital, for example.
Pressure reducers are a functional component of a wide range of appliance combinations such as stationary oxygen appliances and portable oxygen devices. They are therefore an important component in the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases and/or disorders of the cardiovascular system.
The aim of these Service and Repair Instructions is to familiarize you, a trained and competent expert, with the function, technology, servicing and repair of pressure reducers and flowmeters. In conjunction with a training course that you have already been
given by WEINMANN, you now belong to that group of “trained and competent experts”, which means you can give your customers proper instruction, rectify faults yourself and perform the prescribed functional check and any repairs in accordance with these Service and Repair Instructions.
In the event of any warranty claim the device must be sent to WEINMANN.
So that we can process any warranty claims or requests for favorable treatment, please send us the customer’s purchase slip (invoice) with the appliance.
Repairs and/or repair work may only be performed by WEINMANN or by trained and competent experts.
You are responsible for any repairs you carry out yourself and the relevant guarantees!
Only genuine WEINMANN replacement parts may be used for repairs.
Please remember:
Your customers put their trust in you and rely on your efficiency, just as you rely on WEINMANN.
Note:
You will find the following information in the operating instructions for the devices:
•Safety information
•Assembly
•Operation
•Hygienic preparation
•Functional Check
•Warranty.

Overview 5
1.1 Explanation of Numbers
Type: 30800
The type row indicates the basic design of the pressure reducer, e.g. “30800” for indexed pressure reducers (Fast I).
Order number:
In the order number the first three numbers are a short indication of the type, and the last two digits indicate the specific version (e.g. the connection variants).
Appliance number:
The first two digits of the appliance number show the year of manufacture. The next five digits are the consecutive appliance serial number within each type. The appliance number is stamped on the back of the pressure reducer.
1.2 Information about conformity with standards
Up to serial number 0849999, OXYWAY pressure reducers meet standard EN 738-1.
From serial number 0850000, OXYWAY pressure reducers meet standard EN ISO 10524- 1:2006.
In the course of adapting the products to standard EN ISO 10524-1:2006, it was not possible to design all components to be downward-compati- ble. Parts which are not downward-compatible are available for both device statuses separately and are marked accordingly in the replacement parts lists (see “8. Replacement Parts” on page 64) of these instructions.
Caution!
Malfunction as a result of unclear device status.
If replacement parts which are not downward-com- patible are used in the wrong pressure reducers, connected devices will malfunction.
•Fit replacement parts which are not down- ward-compatible only in accordance with the pressure reducer serial numbers quoted.
•Do not convert pressure reducers up to SN 0849999 “to suit the new standard”.
6 Overview
2. Function
2.1 General
During operation, the oxygen coming from the oxygen bottle passes through the bottle valve and the connector 2 into the body 4 of the pressure reducer. You can read off the bottle pressure (delivery pressure) at the contents gage 1.
WEINMANN piston pressure reducers are of modular design. This makes it possible to keep the number of replacement parts to a minimum.
A filter screw with integrated sinter filter (see explanation on right) traps any impurities. A further sinter filter absorbs pressure surges in the oxygen flow.
The filter screw 12 is located at the entrance to the connector 2. The second sinter filter is fitted between the connector 2 and the body 4.
In the reduction stage the bottle pressure is reduced to the required nominal outlet pressure, depending on type. The principle used, with crater drill hole and spring-loaded piston, ensures especially constant pressure in spite of variations in flow.
All pressure reducers are protected against excess pressure by a safety valve 11.
Explanations:
Sinter filter: Small spherical bronze particles are pressed together under heat, creating a filter with a particularly fine pore structure (50 - 75 µm).
Flow: Outlet volume; expressed in liters per minute.
2.2Fixed pressure reducer FIX
(WM 30050; 30100; 30200; 30300; 30350)
A fixed orifice in oxygen outlet 7 creates a constant flow.
The pressure reducers in this series differ in the |
|
|
length and position of the connector 2 and the |
2 |
|
oxygen outlet 7. |
||
|
||
|
7 |
Function 7
2.3 Variable pressure reducer FINE (WM 30500; 30700; 30750)
The piston is acted upon by a second spring which can be adjusted via a spindle system and thereby creates different outlet pressures. In conjunction with the fixed orifice in the oxygen outlet 7 you can therefore make continuously variable adjustments to the flow. You can read off the flow setting at the flow gage 8.
The pressure reducers in this series differ in the length and position of the connector 2.
2 |
8 |
7 |
2.4 Indexed pressure reducer FAST (WM 30600; 30800; 30850)
As in the fixed pressure reducers, this creates a |
|
constant operating pressure (outlet pressure). |
|
The index head 6 contains an orifice disc with |
|
various orifice diameters which are aligned by an |
|
index (click-in) system with the oxygen outlet 35. |
2 |
This enables you to set various flow rates. |
|
The pressure reducers in this series differ in the |
6 |
length and position of the connector 2. A pressure |
|
reducer of type WM 30850 has two oxygen |
|
outlets. |
|
7 |
35 |
2.5 Multistep pressure reducer Fast II High Flow (WM 31899)
As in the Fast multistep pressure reducers, there is an orifice disk with a variety of orifice diameters in adjuster 6 which is brought into line with oxygen outlet 35 by means of a locating system.
In addition to the flow outlet, there is a pressure outlet for medical devices with an oxygen requirement in excess of 90 l/min. The pressure outlet and the flow outlet may not be in operation simultaneously.
35 |
6 |
7 |
8 Function
2.6 Two-stage pressure reducer OXYTRON (WM 30150)
The two-stage pressure reducer has a first stage in |
|
the form of a fixed pressure reducer WM 30100, |
|
and a second reduction stage 52 to permit optimal |
|
adjustment of pressure and flow to suit the |
|
OXYTRON oxygen device. |
|
In the second stage the pressure of 4.5 bar from |
|
the first stage is similarly reduced by a system of |
|
crater drill hole and spring-loaded pistion to |
|
1.6 bar. |
|
A fixed orifice in the oxygen outlet 7 generates a |
52 |
constant flow of 12 l/min. |
7 |
|
2.7 Indexed flowmeter OXYWAY Click
During operation, the oxygen supplied by the central gas system at a pressure of 4.5 bar passes through the inlet connector 2 into the body 22 of the OXYWAY Click.
The dial head 6 contains an orifice disk with orific- |
|
6 |
es of different diameters which are lined up with |
|
|
the oxygen outlet 35 by means of a click dial sys- |
|
|
tem. You can set the following flow rates: 1, 2, 3, |
|
|
4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 15 l/min.. |

Function 9
2.8 Oxygen outlets pressure reducer OXYWAY
Oxyway pressure reducers are available with different oxygen outlets: the pressure outlet and the flow outlet are different (see also “10. Technical Data” on page 79).
Flow outlets are intended for the direct supply of the patient, e.g. via nasal cannula, mask or
intermediate humidifier. Flow outlets have a 9/16 UNF thread.
Pressure outlets are intended to supply ventilators such as the Medumat, modules or distributor bars. Pressure outlets have a G 3/8" thread.

3. Final Check
3.1 General
Test conditions:
•Ambient temperature: 15 °C
•Ambient pressure: 1013 hPa
•Connection to oxygen supply. For flow tests, a constant pressure* of 100 bar or 200 bar is required.
*100 bar up to SN 0849999
200 bar from SN 0850000
All the tolerances listed in these instructions (see “10. Technical Data” on page 79) relate to these conditions. Note that if different ambient conditions prevail, deviating measuring results may be obtained.
For the check you will need:
•shutoff valve (max. 6 bar) after oxygen outlet
•test pressure gage 0 - 10 bar
•test pressure gage 0 - 2.5 bar
and three flow meters:
•0 - 50 ml/min
•0 - 20 l/min
•0 - 220 l/min.
If the final check reveals faults, the device must not be used until the defect has been rectified. For possible causes of the defect and how to remedy them, see Chapter “5. Troubleshooting” on
page 18.
A complete check of the OXYWAY Fix, Fast and Fine pressure reducer includes:
•Visual inspection for mechanical damage,
•“3.3.1 Testing system for leaks” on page 12,
•“3.3.2 Testing safety valve for leaks” on page 13,
•“3.3.3 Checking “0” position of contents gage” on page 13,
•“3.3.4 Checking “0” position of flow gage on pressure reducer FINE” on page 13
•“3.3.5 Checking for leaks with valve closed on pressure reducer FINE” on page 14,
•“3.3.6 Checking adjustable flow rate on pressure reducer FINE” on page 14,
•“3.3.7 Checking adjustable flow rate on pressure reducer FAST” on page 14.
•“3.3.8 Checking constant flow rate in pressure reducers FIX, FAST and
FAST II high Flow” on page 15
•“3.3.9 Checking static outlet pressure p4 for all pressure reducers” on page 15.
A complete check of the OXYWAY Click flowmeter includes:
•“3.4 Checking the adjustable output (flow) on the OXYWAY Click” on page 15.
We recommend that you always keep in stock:
•Replacement seal set WM 1148,
•Filter screw WM 30905.
3.2 Intervals
After any servicing or repair work
•Perform a final check.
Final Check |
11 |
3.3 Performing check
3.3.1 Testing system for leaks
1.Close system after pressure reducer, e.g. by closing a valve after the pressure reducer.
2.Check that all screwed joints and hoses are firmly seated. If necessary tighten joints by hand.
3.Slowly open valve of oxygen bottle. Contents gage 1 of pressure reducer now shows bottle pressure, e.g. 200 bar.
4.To detect leaks, wet screwed connections with a soap-and-water solution. Use Lanosan® med for this purpose.
Warning!
Risk of explosion from soap penetration.
Leaks can cause soap to penetrate the system and combine with the oxygen to form an explosive mixture.
•Open the O2 valve before wetting parts of the system with a soap-and-water solution. The system is then pressurized. No soap can penetrate the system.
•Remove the soap-and-water solution without leaving any residues after the test is complete.
5.Close bottle valve again.
6.Observe needle of contents gage 1 for about 1 minute. If needle stays in same position, the system is gas-tight. If the needle falls steadily, there is a leak.
Eliminating leaks
1 |
We recommend that you keep a stock of replacement seals for the connections.
1.Prepare solution of soapy water, using per- fume-free soap.
2.Wet all screwed joints with solution. If bubbles form, this indicates a leak.
3.Release pressure in system:
–Close oxygen bottle valve.
–Open valve after pressure reducer until contents gage 1 reads “0”.
4.Replace faulty seal responsible for leak (see “6.2 Replacing sealing ring in connector” on page 20).
Important!
Screwed joints of oxygen line must only be hand tightened.
5.Check for leaks again.
6.If leak cannot be eliminated, unit must be repaired.
12 Final Check
3.3.2 Testing safety valve for leaks
1.Test must be performed at maximum flow. In the Fine and Fast series this is set accordingly.
2.Slowly open oxygen bottle valve.
3. Test with finger whether oxygen is escaping from safety valve 11.
If oxygen is escaping, have pressure reducer repaired by manufacturer (WEINMANN).
Alternatively, you can also wet the safety valve
with soap-and-water solution to find leaks. Use 11 Lanosan® med.
Warning!
Risk of explosion from soap penetration.
Leaks can cause soap to penetrate the system and combine with the oxygen to form an explosive mixture.
•Open the O2 valve before wetting parts of the system with a soap-and-water solution. The system is then pressurized. No soap can penetrate the system.
•Remove the soap-and-water solution without leaving any residues after the test is complete.
3.3.3 Checking “0” position of contents gage
1.Slowly open oxygen bottle valve.
Contents gage 1 now shows bottle pressure.
2.To release pressure in system:
–Close oxygen bottle valve
–Switch on connected appliance
–Open shutoff valve after oxygen outlet.
3.Needle of contents gage 1 now falls toward “0”. Wait until needle stops moving. Now switch appliance off.
4.Check whether needle points exactly to “0”.
If not, fit replacement contents gage (see “6.5 Replacing gage” on page 27).
3.3.4 Checking “0” position of flow gage on pressure reducer FINE
1.Slowly open oxygen bottle valve.
2.Set flow rate (e.g. 7 l/min) at adjuster knob 9. You can read the set value at the flow gage 8.
3.To release pressure in system:
–Close oxygen bottle valve
–Open shutoff valve after oxygen outlet
–Switch on connected appliance.
4.Needle of flow gage 8 now falls toward “0”. Wait until needle stops moving. Now switch appliance off.

3.3.8Checking constant flow rate in pressure reducers FIX, FAST and FAST II high Flow
You need a flow meter as follows:
•For WM 30050, 30100, 30150: flow meter 0 – 20 l/min
•For WM 30200, 30300, 30350, 30850, 31899: flow meter 0 – 220 l/min.
1.Connect flow meter to oxygen outlet.
2.Close
–on pressure reducers WM 30850 and WM 31899: oxygen outlet for adjustable flow,
–on pressure reducer WM 30200: second oxygen outlet (on the side).
3.Slowly open oxygen bottle valve.
–Contents gage 1 now shows bottle pressure
–Flow meter shows flow rate.
4.Check flow rate reading against set value.
Pressure reducers must maintain the following flow rates:
WM 30050, 30100: 4 l/min ± 0.5 l/min
WM 30150: |
12 l/min ± 1.2 l/min |
WM (30200), 30300, |
|
30350: |
120 l/min ± 15 l/min |
WM 30850: |
90 l/min ± 10 l/min |
WM 31899: |
min. 160 l/min |
5.In the event of discrepancies, have pressure reducer repaired by manufacturer (WEINMANN).
6.There is a second oxygen outlet on pressure reducer WM 30200. This is a free pressure outlet.
3.3.9 Checking static outlet pressure p4 for all pressure reducers
1.Connect appropriate test gage to oxygen outlet 7.
2.Check closing pressures p4 (see “10. Technical Data” on page 79). They are valid for a
delivery pressure of p1* = 100 bar or
200 bar and must be reached within 1 minute at most. After this they must not show any further increase.
*100 bar up to SN 0849999
200 bar from SN 0850000
3.4Checking the adjustable output (flow) on the OXYWAY Click
You need a flow meter with a range of 0 – 20 l/min.
Perform the measurement at an inlet pressure of 4.5 bar ±0.2 bar.
1.Set the flow "0" at index head 6.
2.Plug the flowmeter into a suitable compressed gas supply (e.g. a central gas supply system).
3.Connect the flow meter to the oxygen outlet.
4.Set any flow value at index head 6.
5.Check on the flow meter whether the set value corresponds to the actual value.
Please observe the tolerances of the flowmeter in the process.
Rising test:
1 to 5 l/min: ±0.5 liter,
6 to 15 l/min: ±10 %.
Falling test:
6 ±10 % and 0/min: ±0.15 l/min
