Disposable CLIC absorber (Optional)
Figure 55. CLIC absorber
The disposable absorber can be replaced during
operation. The valve in the mounting ensures that the
breathing system remains tightly sealed when the
absorber is removed.
Note: Since a leak test cannot be performed during
operation, no leak and compliance
information on the changed absorber is
available. Greater attention is required
during operation.
Replace the disposable absorber to ensure
continuous CO
2 absorption in the breathing system.
Remove the spent absorber
1. Press the button (1 in Figure 55): the absorber
swings open sealing the breathing system so
that the ventilation can continue.
If the absorber is replaced during ventilation, the
inspiratory gas concentrations can drop for a short
period.
2. Slide the disposable absorber off the mount
(2 in Figure 55).
3. Dispose of the spent absorber.
Refer to the Instructions for Use of the CLIC
absorber for information on disposal.
Install the new absorber
1. Before fitting, shake the disposable absorber,
e.g. by turning it upside down several times in
order to loosen the soda lime.
2. Remove seal from new disposable absorber.
3. Slide the new disposable absorber into the
mount (2 in Figure 55)
4. Push the absorber into the machine until it
engages.
