Installing the Sensor in a Breathing Circuit
To use the sensor in a breathing circuit, you will need
the following:
•
Sensor (with deflector)
•
Tee adapter
•
Retaining strap
To install the sensor in a breathing circuit:
1. Install the tee adapter into the breathing circuit
upstream from the humidifier. Make sure that side
port of the tee adapter is facing upward
2. Remove the coiled cable from the sensor.
3. Firmly insert the sensor (with deflector) into the
tee adapter with the deflector pointing downward
(Figure 3-3) to prevent moisture from condensing
onto the sensor membrane (See Appendix B,
Effects of Pressure, Humidity, and Temperature).
Make sure that the sensor fits tightly into the tee
adapter.
4. Install one end of the retaining strap over a post
on the side of the tee adapter.
5. Loop the strap over the sensor, inserting the strap
center hole over the sensor cable jack.
6. Install the other end of the strap over the other tee
adapter post.
7. Re-attach the coiled cable to the sensor. Tighten
the twist collar.
The sensor is securely placed for monitoring (See
Figure 3-4).

3000 Oxygen Monitor (as shown in
®
Figure 3-5) can be attached to a vertical or horizontal
