Notes - Maxtec MaxFLO2 LOW FLOW R223P01 Manuel D'utilisation Et Mode D'emploi

• Variations in inlet gas source pressure will change the flow rate of the affected gas
and alter the percent of oxygen exiting the outlet.
• Excessive back pressure on the outlet will result in higher than indicated gas flow but
will not result in inaccurate oxygen concentration.
• Use caution to ensure the mixed gas analysis port is clean and free of any foreign
matter before each use.
• Maxtec recommends use of Maxtec analyzers/monitors which contain the Maxtec
MAX-250 line of sensors. The use of analyzers/monitors with other brands or types of
sensors may result in performance that does not conform to specifications found in
Table 1 of Section 2.2 and information found in Section 12 of this operating manual.
• Clean the MaxFLO
Excessive cleaning can cause residue buildup on critical components which can
affect the performance of the MaxFLO
Do not clean the MaxFLO
chloride, or chloride compounds, or that contain more than 2% glutaraldehyde. These
agents may damage the plastic components.
Do not operate the MaxFLO
(520kPaG).
• Mount the MaxFLO
proper function as outlined in section 3 of this operating manual prior to first use.
• Dropping the device may cause injury or device damage. If the MaxFLO
dropped, follow the procedures outlined in Section 3 of this operating manual for a
performance check before re-using the device.
• An air inlet water filter is recommended for use with the MaxFLO
Do not overtighten the flow adjustment valves.
• Use only Maxtec replacement parts. Failure to do so may seriously impair the
performance of the MaxFLO
than an authorized Maxtec service representative, could cause the product to fail to
perform as designed.
