External Power and the LTV
When the SprintPack Li-Ion Power System is connected to the LTV
Ventilator, the proper LED indicators will appear on the ventilator's front
panel. The SprintPack Li-Ion System is now powering the LTV Ventilator.
•
The front panel of the LTV Ventilator provides an LED indication of
power source and power status. With the external power source
properly connected, the LTV Ventilator's External Power LED will
illuminate Green, indicating the ventilator is receiving power from a
source other than its internal battery.
•
As the external power source discharges, the terminal voltage will
drop. The LTV Ventilator will announce a POWER LOW alarm
when the external power source (SprintPack output) voltage is less
than 11.0V. The External Power LED will then illuminate Amber.
This alarm occurs with approximately 5 – 25 minutes of LTV
Ventilator run time remaining on the SprintPack Li-Ion Power
System.
•
When the external power source (SprintPack output) is less than
9.5V, the LTV Ventilator will automatically switch to the internal
battery. The POWER LOST message will be displayed, the External
Power LED will be Off, and the Battery Level LED will illuminate.
