GRAPHIC CONTROLS ACQUISITION CORP · Model PED-100
Defibrillator Electrodes.
Intended use: A noninvasive conductive material designed to facilitate electrical conduction between an external electrode (e.g., paddle-type defibrillator electrode) and the skin surface. It is available in various forms such as a thickened gel or polymer medium reinforced by a non-woven material, an adhesive pad/patch, or an absorbent material (e.g., felt) intended to be soaked in a conduction fluid. This is a single-use device.
Key tips
- ·Never skip the daily/shift ready-check - a defibrillator found dead during a code is a real, repeated root-cause finding.
- ·Pads and batteries have real expiration dates - check them on every PM, not just at annual service.
- ·Verify energy-delivery accuracy with a real defibrillator analyzer, not just a self-test pass.
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 defibrillation & emergency 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/shift visual and self-test check (AAMI EQ56 daily-ready standard)
- ·Battery and pad expiration-date tracking
- ·Energy-delivery accuracy test against a defibrillator analyzer
- ·Paddle/cable continuity check
- ·Annual full PM
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.
