Vaporizer exclusion systems
The exclusion systems available for the Apollo are
described below.
Figure 2. Dräger Vapor Interlock 2 SystemDräger Vapor Interlock 2 System
(Optional)
The Dräger Interlock 2 system is used to ensure that
only one of two vaporizers can be used at a time. It
has a selector lever used to select which vaporizer is
enabled.
Moving the selector lever away from the desired
vaporizer allows that vaporizer to be used and the
other to be locked out of use.
Note that the selector lever (1 in Figure 2) is shown in
the center position. This ensures that both vaporizers
are in the locked position. Also, this is the
recommended position for the selector lever when
moving the Apollo.
Selectatec (Optional)
The interlock system for the Selectatec is built into
the vaporizers. When a vaporizer is selected for use,
the interlocking index pins will protrude from the
sides of the vaporizer thereby not allowing the
adjacent vaporizer to be opened. For more specific
information on the Selectatec, refer to the Selectatec
Vaporizer’s instruction manual.
CAUTION!
Risk of ambient environment contamination and
patient injury
The parked vaporizer may be mistakenly opened if
the park holder is positioned right next to the
vaporizer mount on the anesthesia machine.
To avoid contaminating the ambient environment
and endangering the patient, always doublecheck
to make sure the correct vaporizer is being opened
before doing so.
