Section 1
Introduction
The MiniOX
3000 Oxygen Monitor provides
®
continuous, direct monitoring of oxygen mixtures in a
variety of applications, including:
•
Respiratory Therapy (e.g., respirators,
ventilators, pediatric incubators)
•
Anesthesiology (e.g., anesthesia machines)
•
Oxygen Therapy (e.g., oxygen tents)
The monitor is for use by trained health care
professionals:
•
under the supervision, or on the order, of a
physician
•
in a hospital or clinical setting
•
during emergency transport
General Description
Battery-operated and microprocessor-controlled,
the MiniOX
3000 Oxygen Monitor measures
®
oxygen concentrations in the 0% to 100% range.
The monitor's performance features ensure reliable
and accurate oxygen measurement. These features
include:
•
calibration function
•
high and low oxygen concentration alarms
•
low and depleted battery alarms
•
oxygen sensor indicator
•
automatic error detection
•
battery test
•
oxygen alarm test
The calibration function allows calibration of
the device against room air (defined as oxygen
concentration of 20.8%) or 100% O
visual alarms alert the operator when monitor
calibration is required.
High and low oxygen concentration alarms may be set
in the ranges of:
•
19% to 100% (high alarm) and
•
18% to 99% (low alarm)
or the default high/low settings may be used (50%
and 18%, respectively).
Audible and visual alarms activate when oxygen

activates audible and visual alarms
alarms for:
•
sensor disconnection or malfunction
•
various internal operating errors

The Alarm Test verifies the operation of the high
and low oxygen level alarms
The Battery Test assesses the relative
remaining battery life
3000 Oxygen Monitor consists of two
®
a touch-sensitive keypad
a liquid crystal display (LCD) that shows:
•
monitor status
•
continuous oxygen concentrations
•
preset alarm levels
two red light-emitting diodes (LEDs) which
serve as visual alarms
a bail bar to allow the instrument to "stand" on a
horizontal surface during monitoring operations
a plastic wedge that slides into an optional
bracket for mounting the instrument on a
horizontal or vertical pole
