Vyaire LTV2 Series
Vyaire · Model LTV2 Series
Turbine technology eliminates the need for a high-pressure air source Oxygen resource management tool reduces oxygen consumption * 2200 model only Enhanced patient comfort and care with flow trigger and internal PEEP compensation Optimization trial settings Versatility with highly customizable settings to support patient success Hot swappable battery Low cost of ownership Data output capabilities NPPV enhancements Sigh breath for more natural breathing Improved power capabilities Institutional use and for intra-hospital transport Easy to read displays Comprehensive monitoring Supports invasive and non-invasive applications The LTV2 has been authorized by the FDA under an emergency use authorization to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. The LTV2 is for institutional use only and shall only be utilized for the duration of the public health emergency.
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.
Exhalation valve leak / failure
HighSymptoms: Low exhaled tidal volume, high leak alarm, inability to maintain PEEP.
Root cause: Diaphragm/valve degraded by secretions and cleaning cycles.
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.
O2 blender / mixer fault
MediumSymptoms: FiO2 out of range, oxygen alarm.
Root cause: Failed solenoid or proportional valve in blender.

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.
Symptom: Flow / pressure sensor drift
- Confirm the presentation - typically inaccurate delivered volume, false volume/pressure alarms - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: sensor contamination or aging of differential-pressure transducer.
- 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 flow / differential pressure sensor 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.
