Breas iSleep 20i system
Breas Medical AB · Model US
Ventilator Non-continuous (Respirator)
Intended use: A portable, mains electricity (AC-powered) device, which may include rechargeable batteries, intended to assist noninvasive ventilation (i.e., without use of an artificial airway) using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) during spontaneous respiration, primarily to treat adult patients affected by obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA); it may also be intended to treat snoring. It is a small desktop unit with controls, and may include a built-in humidifier; the airway pressure may be automatically adjusted to help provide optimal CPAP through use of a sensor (auto CPAP). The device is intended for use in the home but may also be used in healthcare facilities.
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
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Will not power on or unexpected shutdown
HighSymptoms: The ventilation & respiratory is dead, reboots, or shuts down mid-use.
Root cause: Mains lead / fuse, an aged battery, or a power-supply board fault.
Battery will not hold charge
MediumSymptoms: Short run time on battery; low-battery alarm soon after a full charge.
Root cause: Aged rechargeable battery pack or a charger fault.
Display / control-panel fault
MediumSymptoms: Blank, dim or distorted display; unresponsive keys or touchscreen.
Root cause: Display, backlight, or control-board fault.
Fails self-test or calibration
MediumSymptoms: Power-on self-test or the scheduled performance check fails or is out of tolerance.
Root cause: Sensor drift or an internal board fault; recalibration or repair needed.

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 starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Will not power on
- Confirm the outlet, mains lead and fuse.
- Try on battery, then on mains only, to isolate the supply.
- Look for a power indicator or POST code.
- Replace the fuse / battery / power supply as isolated.
- Run the self-test after any repair.
Symptom: Fails self-test or calibration
- Note the exact failure message / code.
- Power-cycle and repeat the self-test.
- Verify against a reference / simulator where one applies.
- Recalibrate per the service manual.
- Refer the affected board for service if it will not hold calibration.
