Replacing Flow Sensor
In this section, we’ll walk through how to replace the flow sensor. To begin, the manifold must be disassembled. Use an 11/16-inch torque wrench with a Hexit socket, set to 70 inch-pounds. Loosen the output adapter by rotating the tool to the left. Next, use the modified 11/16-inch wrench to loosen the oxygen and nitrous input connectors. While loosening, be sure to hold the internal part in place to prevent it from rotating. Now, carefully remove the entire manifold assembly from the unit. Pull out the metal tubes, and extract the flow sensor. To reinstall, simply reverse the steps we just covered.

Replacing TFT Driver PCB
Removing and Replacing the TFT Driver PCB Summary for Training Module: This instructional video guides service technicians through the correct procedure for removing and reinstalling the TFT driver PCB (Printed Circuit Board), a critical component responsible for controlling the device’s display. Procedure Overview: Cable Disconnection: Begin by disconnecting all three cables attached to the PCB. For the large flat cable, unlock the connector by pressing the latch toward the connector—then gently pull the cable free to avoid damage. Board Removal: Unscrew the four screws securing the PCB to the housing. Once the screws are removed, carefully lift the PCB out, avoiding contact with sensitive components. Reinstallation: To reinstall the PCB, reverse the removal steps: Position the PCB. Secure it with four screws. Reconnect all cables, ensuring secure and proper alignment, especially for the flat cable. Key Learning Objectives: Safely disconnect and handle flat and multi-pin cables. Follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions during PCB handling. Reassemble display electronics with correct mechanical and electrical integrity.

Testing LOW Input Pressure Alarm
This video segment demonstrates how to verify the functionality of the input pressure alarm system, which ensures the device responds appropriately to insufficient or lost input pressure conditions—critical for maintaining patient safety and system reliability. Procedure Overview: Setup for Alarm Testing: Use a flow control valve to simulate a small leak in the input line. Gradually decrease the pressure using the pressure regulator to simulate real-world failure conditions. Low Input Pressure Alarm: As the pressure drops below 40 psi, the device will trigger the Low Input Pressure Alarm, indicated by: A visual warning on the display. An audible alarm sound. No Pressure Alarm: Continue reducing pressure to approximately 20 psi. The device will now trigger the No Pressure Alarm, characterized by: A no pressure alarm indicator. A continuous cycling audible alarm, signaling critical loss of input pressure. Key Learning Objectives: Perform controlled testing of pressure-related alarm systems. Recognize specific alarm thresholds and their corresponding indicators. Understand the significance of these alarms in preventing operational failure.

Operational Testing
This video provides a step-by-step demonstration of how to test and verify the performance of a gas delivery system, specifically focusing on oxygen and nitrous oxide concentration, baseline pressure, leak integrity, and flush flow functionality. Accurate testing of these parameters is essential to ensure device safety and clinical performance. Procedure Overview: Setup and Configuration: Connect the E-Advantage device to the appropriate gas sources: Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide. Adjust inlet pressures to the specified range: Target: 60 PSI for both gases. Power on the regulators and activate the device. Use the default 50/50 oxygen-nitrous oxide mix setting for testing. Patient Simulation Setup: It is recommended to use a dual test lung setup: One lung is operated by a ventilator. The second lung is driven by the first, simulating patient-demand breathing. Alternative: Use a 1-liter syringe or similar device capable of mimicking breathing with: A minimum tidal volume of 900 mL. A consistent rate and volume for accurate measurements. Testing Requirements: The tidal volume must consistently reach at least 900 mL. Each syringe pull or simulated breath should be capable of achieving this volume. The duration of each cycle must ensure the device registers and responds to gas demand correctly. Key Learning Objectives: Properly connect and configure medical gas supplies for testing. Simulate patient-demand ventilation using test lungs or volume-controlled alternatives. Validate gas delivery accuracy, leak tightness, and flow functionality under realistic conditions.
