Respironics UltraFill Manuel De L'utilisateur page 5

• Do not use the UltraFill System if either the plug or power cord is damaged. Do not use an extension cord with
the UltraFill System.
• Do not connect the UltraFill System to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or ground fault interruptor.
Make sure there is no other high power device such as a TV, stereo, computer, radio transmitter, space heater, hair
dryer, refrigerator, microwave oven, electrical range, or other large appliance connected to this outlet.
• Electrical shock hazard: Do not remove the cabinet of the UltraFill Station. The removal of the cabinet should
only be performed by Respironics, Inc. or a trained representative.
• Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning the housing of the UltraFill Station.
• This equipment complies with IEC 60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility for medical electrical equipment
and/or systems. This standard is designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
typical medical installation. However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting equipment and
other sources of electrical noise in health care and other environments, it is possible that high levels of such
interference due to close proximity or strength of a source might disrupt the performance of this device. Medical
electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC, and all equipment must be installed and put into
service according to the EMC information specified in this manual.
• Take precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Precautionary procedures include methods to prevent
buildup of electrostatic discharge (e.g., air conditioning, humidification, conductive floor coverings, and non-
synthetic clothing), discharging one's body to the frame of the equipment or system or to earth or a large metal
object, and bonding oneself by means of a wrist strap to the equipment or system, or to earth.
• All cylinders must be inspected before attempting to fill. Otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
• Do not fill cylinders that have not been tested in the past 5 years. Otherwise, serious personal injury may result.
Contact your dealer for replacement.
• Never use tools of any kind to disconnect the cylinder from the UltraFill Station. Otherwise, severe injury and/or
damage may occur.
• Do not drop oxygen cylinders. Use two hands when handling/transporting oxygen cylinders. Otherwise, injury or
damage may occur.
• Do not use a liquid leak detector to test for leaks.
• Do not direct the flow of oxygen at any person or flammable material when adjusting the flow.
• When the pointer on the cylinder contents gauge enters the red zone, it is recommended to refill the cylinder.
• No oxygen is delivered between cylinder settings. To obtain desired flow, the indicating pointer must align with a
specific number on the dial.
• To avoid injury to the patient, always confirm prescribed setting before administering to the patient.
