ANESTHESIA ASSOCIATES, INC. · Model 00-325-LP-EXT1
Jet Ventilator Extension Hose, 1ft, LuerF Lock x LuerM Lock, PVC/Chrome Brass
Intended use: An assembly of devices designed to be interconnected to administer oxygen (O2) to a patient using various methods of oxygen administration (e.g., face mask, nasal canula) at different concentrations (e.g., via a gas mixer), duration of use, and flows. It will connect to an oxygen source and will typically include a flowmeter or flow controlling device, masks, tubing, valves, and/or nasal cannulae. It can also include, e.g., a high pressure gas reduction valve(s) and a pneumatically-powered suction device with collection bottle.
Key tips
- ·Never disable a low-pressure/circuit-disconnect alarm while troubleshooting - silence it, don't disable it.
- ·Verify the O2 supply source and pressure before assuming an internal fault.
- ·Circuit type must match the patient population (adult/pediatric/neonatal) - a mismatched circuit invalidates delivered volumes.
Typical Failure Modes
Failure patterns typical of this equipment class - general BMET reference, not verified against this exact unit's own service history unless flagged. Severity is a category-level estimate.
Flow / pressure sensor drift
MediumSymptoms: Inaccurate delivered volume, false volume/pressure alarms.
Root cause: Sensor contamination or aging of differential-pressure transducer.
Compressor / turbine failure
HighSymptoms: Unable to reach set pressure, low-flow alarm, loud noise.
Root cause: Worn bearings or failed blower motor.
Power supply / battery failure
HighSymptoms: Unexpected shutdown, persistent low-battery alarm.
Root cause: Aged internal battery or failed PSU.
Patient circuit leak
LowSymptoms: Leak alarm, low circuit pressure, volume loss.
Root cause: Disconnected or punctured patient circuit / humidifier.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Daily pre-use check: self-test, circuit integrity, alarm function
- ·Scheduled circuit and inspiratory filter replacement per manufacturer interval
- ·Flow and pressure sensor calibration verification
- ·Battery load test and runtime check
- ·Annual full PM and electrical safety test
Troubleshooting Approach
A structured starting point derived from the failure modes above. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Exhalation valve leak / failure
- Confirm the presentation - typically low exhaled tidal volume, high leak alarm, inability to maintain PEEP - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: diaphragm/valve degraded by secretions and cleaning cycles.
- Isolate the affected subsystem using the manufacturer's functional check or self-test, where one is provided.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the exhalation valve assembly per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
