WARNING: Possible explosion hazard. Do not operate machine near flammable anesthetic agents or other flammable substances. Do not use flammable anesthetic agents (e.g., ether or cyclopropane.) WARNING: The use of anti-static or electrically conductive respiration tubes, when utilizing high frequency electric surgery equipment, may cause burns and is therefore not recommended in any application of this machine. WARNING: Possible electric shock hazard. The machine may only be opened by authorized service personnel. WARNING: Compressed gasses are considered Dangerous Goods/Hazardous Materials per I.A.T.A (International Air Transport Association). and D.O.T. (Department Of Transport) regulations. It is a violation of federal and international law to transport dangerous goods

without the packages being appropriately identified, packed, marked, classified, labeled and

documented according to D.O.T. and I.A.T.A. regulations. Please refer to the applicable I.A.T.A. Dangerous Goods Regulations and /or the Code of Federal Regulations 49 (Transportation, Parts 171-180) for further information. WARNING: Avoid exposure to respiratory gases by always directing the fresh gas flow from the fresh gas outlet to the waste gas scavenger. Cautions CAUTION: This device uses high pressure compressed gas. When attaching or disconnecting backup gas cylinders, always turn the cylinder valves slowly. Use the A5/A3 flow meters to bleed down the pressure, watching the cylinder gauge indicate the depleting cylinder pressure, before disconnecting the cylinder from the yoke. Always open and close cylinder valves fully. CAUTION: This device operates using compressed gas at high pressures from the hospital central supply. When connecting gas supply lines attach the hose connection to the machine before connecting the quick disconnect fitting to the hospital source. Disconnect the supply hose from the hospital source connection prior to disconnecting it from the A5/A3 gas connection fittings. CAUTION: Refer to Section 3.3 Periodical Maintenance Schedule for assistance when performing scheduled periodic maintenance. CAUTION: Do not leave gas cylinder valves open if the pipeline supply is in use and the system master switch is turned to 'ON'. If used simultaneously, cylinder supplies could be depleted, leaving an insufficient reserve supply in the event of pipeline failure. CAUTION: Use cleaning agent sparingly. Excess fluid could enter the machine, causing damage. CAUTION: This machine must only be operated by trained, skilled medical staff. CAUTION: Perform the electrical safety inspection as the last step after completing a repair or after routine maintenance. Perform this inspection with all covers, panels, and screws installed. CAUTION: After changing the CO2 absorbent, carry out a system leak test. CAUTION: Only Selectatec™ compatible vaporizers with Interlock-System may be used with the A5/A3 unit. CAUTION: After each exchange of a vaporizer, carry out a system Leak test. CAUTION: Do not clean the machine while it is on and/or plugged in. CAUTION: Pressing “cancel” at any time during the procedure will cancel the session's settings and reload the previously-stored calibration coefficients. CAUTION: Depleted sodalime changes color. Replace the sodalime if approximately 2/3 of the absorber content is discolored. CO2 absorbent can be safely changed without stopping mechanical ventilation. CAUTION: This equipment contains parts sensitive to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use ESD precautionary procedures when touching, removing, or inserting parts or assemblies.

NOTE: Unauthorized servicing may void the remainder of the warranty. Check with the

factory or with a local authorized distributor to determine the warranty status of a particular instrument.

1 Theory of Operation

1.1 Introduction The A5/A3 Anesthesia System is a continuous flow inhalation gas anesthesia system that delivers anesthetic vapor, and provides for automatic and manual modes of ventilation. It is equipped with a monitoring system for ventilation, inspired, and expired gas. The A5/A3 is intended for use in operating rooms. It will be used with O2, N2O, and AIR supplied by a medical gas pipeline system or by externally mounted gas cylinders. Anesthetic agents can be delivered via vaporizers mounted on the machine. The A5 ventilator provides the following ventilation modes:  Volume Control Ventilation (VCV), which includes the Pressure Limit Ventilation (PLV) function  Pressure Control Ventilation (PCV) with/without Volume Guarantee (VG) ventilation mode  Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) with VC mode  Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) with PC mode  Pressure Support (PS) ventilation mode  Spontaneous ventilation in Manual mode with APL fully open  Manual ventilation through the use of a breathing bag The A3 ventilator provides the following ventilation modes:  Volume Control Ventilation (VCV), which includes the Pressure Limit Ventilation (PLV) function  Pressure Control Ventilation (PCV)  Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) with VC mode  Pressure Support (PS) ventilation mode  Spontaneous ventilation in Manual mode with APL fully open  Manual ventilation through the use of a breathing bag Electronic PEEP is available in all ventilation modes. User control over inspiratory flow (Tslope) is possible in PCV, SIMV, and PS modes. Automatic fresh gas compensation limits the effect on the patient ventilation from changes in fresh gas flow rate by the operator. The traditional bellows system is driven by oxygen and makes patient disconnections clearly visible. The A5/A3 fresh gas dosing subsystem offers the ease of use and features of a traditional anesthesia system. The dual-flow tubes electronic flowmeter, which includes redundant numerical readouts, displays the O2, N2O, and Air flows at all times. A knob guard prevents inadvertent movement of the flow control knobs. Gas supply gauges and auxiliary O2/Air flowmeters with blended output indicate the gas pipeline supply pressures and gas cylinder pressures. An auxiliary O2 flowmeter is placed at a convenient location for the operator. The O2 flush button is in the traditional location near the front left corner of the table top. Safety systems within the A5/A3 work to prevent hypoxic mixtures from being delivered to the patient. Nitrous oxide will not be delivered unless oxygen pressure is present. A pneumatic safety system assures that at least 21% O2 is present when setting mixtures of O2 and N2O. The A5/A3 breathing system is heated to minimize condensation inside the breathing system block and to return humid gas to the patient. The breathing system provides easy access to the Airway Pressure Limiting (APL) valve and breathing bag, and easy viewing of the Airway Pressure gauge (PAW). The APL valve has a comfortable, single turn knob that provides a

clear view of the manual breathing pressure setting. The absorber assembly incorporates a

cam lock device that is convenient to open and close. CO2 absorbent Pre-paks or loose fill can be used. A water trap that can be drained is also provided on the absorber assembly. Two flow sensors in the breathing system measure inspired and expired gases for control and monitoring. Spirometry is standard on the A5. Inspired oxygen is monitored via a fuel-cell type sensor. Breathing pressure is also monitored. The breathing system can swivel into position. A test plug, next to the two main hose connections, allows automated leak testing during startup. The Anesthesia Gas Scavenging System (AGSS) connections are at the rear of A5/A3. The A5/A3 is powered by an AC power source. In turn, the A5/A3 power management system provides DC power for its main system functions while charging its internal battery supply. In case of AC power failure, the A5/A3 operates on battery power for a minimum of 75 minutes with one (1) new battery installed (A3) or 150 minutes with two (2) new batteries installed (A5). A recessed main switch is provided to power the system ON and OFF. Four (4) auxiliary AC outlets on the A5 and three (3) auxiliary AC outlets on the A3 at the rear of the machine operate independently of the main switch position. NOTE: The breathing system heater does not operate when the A5/A3 is on battery power. NOTE: If the main switch is set to OFF, the O2 fresh gas flow will not flow.

The following figure shows the pneumatic circuit of the Anesthetic Gas Delivery System.

The following picture illustrates how gas supplies are outputted. O2 is divided into four

pathways – system switch (24), O2 flush valve (20), auxiliary O2 supply (51), and high pressure O2 output (44), respectively. Air enters two pathways – one pathway to the needle valve (58) and the other to the auxiliary Air supply (3). N2O goes to the ORC (25). When the system switch (24) is turned on, O2 enters the needle valve (58). When O2 flow is greater than 300ml, N2O can enter the needle valve (58) through ORC 25. After passing through the needle valve (58), the pre-set pneumatic resistance (59) controls the O2 and N2O proportions and ensures the minimum O2 concentration. After passing through the pneumatic resistance (59), O2 and N2O enter the electronic flow N2O tube O2 tube Air tube 24.System switch 20.

sensor (26). Air enters the electronic flow sensor (26) after passing through the needle valve

(58) and the electronic flow meter monitors, and displays the gas flow. The converged gas goes from the total flow meter (50) to the anesthetic agent delivery device (vaporizer), forming fresh gas after mixed with the anesthetic agent. The fresh gas then goes from the check valve (28) through the CGO (29) assembly to the breathing system. The flushing O2 also enters the breathing system through the CGO (29) assembly. 26. Flow sensor 56. Back pressure valve 50. Total flow meter Inlet of anesthetic agent delivery device Outlet of anesthetic agent delivery device Built-in 28. check valve

The above picture shows the O2 pipeline supply inlet assembly. The anesthesia machine’s

pneumatic circuit starts from the gas supplies, which function to introduce the external pipeline or cylinder gases into the machine. Since the pressure of external gas is very high and the external gas contains foreign substances, the pressure reducing valves, filters, and pressure relief valves are available in the supply gas circuit. Also, the check valves are equipped in the supply gas circuit to prevent gas from flowing back into the pipeline or cylinder. The anesthesia machine has pipeline and cylinder gas supplies available. Pipeline gas supplies go into the pipeline gas supply inlet assemblies through pipeline connectors 1, 3, and 5, respectively. The pipeline pressure ranges between 280 and 600 kPa. Cylinder gas supplies go into the system through cylinder connectors 2, 4, and 6, respectively. The O2 and Air cylinder pressures are 6.9 to 15 MPa, and the N2O cylinder pressure is 4.2 to 6 MPa, both of which are decreased to 400 kPa through three regulators (7). Each connector is clearly marked and designed to prevent misconnection. All connectors have filters and check valves. Color coded gauges show the pipeline and cylinder pressures. The Pressure Relief Valve (8) functions to prevent the supply gas pressure from being too high. It releases excess gas when the gas pressure exceeds 758 kPa. Each supply gas is outputted after gas pressure is decreased below 200 kPa through the regulator (23). The Pressure Switch (22) monitors the O2 supply pressure. When the O2 supply pressure is less than approximately 220 kPa, the ventilator gives an alarm indicating O2 supply failure. O2 pipeline supply inlet 22. Pressure switch 8.

System Switch Assembly

O2 goes into the system switch (24); and flows into the needle valve. The system switch has an electrical outlet that controls the power-on status of the system. When the system switch is turned on, O2 enters the needle valve and the system is powered on simultaneously. The anesthetic ventilator starts to monitor the status of the system. When the system switch is turned off, O2 cannot enter the needle valve and the system is powered off. Flow Adjust and Control Assembly The Needle Valve (58) controls the gas flows. The ORC (25) controls the proportion between O2 and N2O, and ensures that the O2 concentration is not less than 21%. Turning the needle valve knob counterclockwise increases the flow; turning it clockwise decreases the flow. O2 chamber N2O chamber 58. Flow adjustment needle valve 59. Adjust pneumatic resistance 59. Adjust pneumatic resistance

Flow Display Assembly

The electronic flowmeter (26) and total flow meter (50) constitute the flow display assembly. Gases from the flow adjust and control assembly and mixed gas going through the anesthetic agent delivery device (vaporizer) are outputted. The electronic flowmeter (26) measures and displays the flow of each gas. The total flow meter (50) displays the total gas flow. O2 Flush Button Assembly The above picture shows the O2 flush button assembly. When the O2 flush valve (20) is depressed, O2 rushes into the pneumatic circuit, which is cut off when this valve is released. The O2 supply gas at 0.2 MPa, after being regulated, goes through the O2 flush valve, the CGO assembly, and into the breathing system. The O2 flush button assembly is not affected by the system switch. Flushing O2 can be performed as long as O2 supply is normal. The O2 flush valve has a slide valve structure inside that ensures automatic reset each time the valve is depressed and released via the spring. 26. Flow sensor 50. Total flow rotameter

The above picture shows the vaporizer manifold assembly. The anesthetic agent delivery

device (vaporizer) is connected to the anesthetic gas delivery system. The mixed gas of N2O, O2, and Air go into the device; the fresh gas containing these three gases and anesthetic agent is finally outputted to the CGO assembly. Either vaporizer manifold (27) is integrated with a check valve (28) that prevents flushed O2 and fresh gas from flowing back to the vaporizer. The Selectatec mounting with interlocking function prevents the user from turning on two vaporizers simultaneously. CGO Assembly The above picture shows the CGO assembly. The CGO assembly includes a flow restrictor (21) and a pressure relief valve (29). Flushed O2 and fresh gas that are mixed enter the CGO. The pressure relief valve (29) at the front restricts the pressure of flushed O2, and also restricts the fresh gas from exceeding 37.9 kPa. Auxiliary O2 and Air Supply Assembly The Auxiliary O2 Supply Assembly (51) and Auxiliary Air Supply Assembly (30) control flow by two needle valves. The individual flows are displayed by glass tube flowmeters. The blended gas is output through a single barbed fitting to the patient. The flow range adjusted is from 0 to 15 L/min. Turning the flow control counterclockwise increases the flow; turning it clockwise decreases the flow.

High Pressure O2 Output Assembly (A5 Only)

The high pressure O2 output (available on the A5 only) comes from the gas source directly and provides high pressure O2 for the external ventilation device (jet ventilation devices) without passing through the pressure regulator. When no external device is connected, the high pressure O2 output is closed. The maximum flow is greater than 90L/min. Outputs high pressure O2 (A5 only) Outputs auxiliary gas supply

1.3.4.2 Anesthetic Ventilator

The anesthetic ventilator provides drive gas for the patient to breathe. O2 from the gas supply inlet assembly enters the anesthetic ventilator and is outputted in three pathways: drive gas entering the breathing system, drive gas discharged through the AGSS outlet, and drive gas discharged through the PEEP outlet. The ventilator controls drive gas flow to prevent excessively high pressure inside the pneumatic circuit from injuring the patient. The following picture shows the gas flow direction and the components of the anesthetic ventilator. The following is the pneumatic circuit diagram of the anesthetic ventilator. Flow 9 10 11 13 12 17 18 19 45 16 15 14 46 P 49 52 Drive Gas Breathing System AGSS The proportional electromagnetic valve (11) controls inlet gas flow. The filter (9) filters drive gas again. The regulator (10) regulates pressure inside the pneumatic circuit. Component 12 is a flow sensor of differential pressure type that monitors gas flow in the drive gas circuit. Pneumatically-controll ed module Input tube of the pneumatically-con trolled module Gas exhaust tube Outputs gas discharged through PEEP outlet Outputs drive gas

The Mechanical overpressure valve (13) ensures that the pressure in the drive gas circuit does

not exceed safe pressure. It releases excess gas when gas pressure exceeds 11 kPa.. Component 18 is the expiratory valve. During expiration, gas inside the bellows is discharged from this valve. The PEEP function is performed through the expiratory valve. Component 15 is a low-flow proportional electromagnetic valve. When it opens, gas is bled from the pneumatic resistor (19), forming relatively stable pressure in the PEEP branch. Such pressure is exerted on the membrane of the expiratory valve (18) to form PEEP. To prevent excessively high pressure inside the pneumatic circuit from injuring the patient and damaging the equipment, the pressure relief valve (15), which is an electromagnetic on-off valve, is placed before the gas pathway of the expiratory valve. The “16” component is a pressure switch. When the drive gas pressure is less than 140 kPa, an alarm is triggered. Component 49 is a pressure sensor that monitors the pressure at which the expiratory valve is closed. The Pressure relief valve (46) ensures the tube pressure after the expiratory valve is less than 10 cmH2O. 1.3.4.3 Breathing System The breathing system provides a closed loop for the anesthetic gas. The expired gas from the patient can be inspired in the inspiration phase to maintain the temperature and humidity conditions of the patient’s expired gas. During inspiration, the drive gas depresses the bag inside the bellows to force the inside gas to enter the patient’s lung. During expiration, the patient’s expired gas goes into the bag inside the bellows. The CO2 Absorber Canister (32) absorbs CO2 that the patient expires. The following figure shows the pneumatic circuit of the breathing system. 41 42 45 14 Flow O2 32 34 38 35 37 33 33 31 40 Flow 39 36 P 53 43 NO NC Drive Gas AGSS Mechanical and manual ventilation modes are selected through the Auto/Manual ventilation switch (41). When the Auto/Manual switch is placed in the Manual position, the operator squeezes the manual bag (42) to supply gas for the breathing system. The APL valve (43) is used to adjust the pressure inside the pneumatic circuit in case of manual ventilation. When the Auto/Manual switch is placed in the Auto position, the A5/A3 starts its ventilator to

mechanically assist or replace the spontaneous breathing of the patient. The ventilator

controls the drive gas to depress the folding bag inside bellows (45) and supply gas for the breathing system according to the selected ventilation mode. The breathing system is connected to the anesthesia machine main unit through the circuit adapter. The breathing system is highly integrated, as its tubes are all internal except the tube connected to the patient and the O2 cell cable, as shown below. 43.APL valve 41.Auto/Manual ventilation switch 45.Bellows assembly Bag arm 35.Airway pressure gauge 40.Expiratory valve 31. Inspiratory valve Patient end (built-in inspiratory and expiratory flow sensors)

In case of mechanical ventilation, during inspiration, gas flows through the Auto/Manual

ventilation switch (41), BYPASS valve (33) or CO2 absorber canister (32), inspiratory valve (31), O2 sensor (34), airway pressure gauge (35), and inspiratory flow sensor (36) to the patient. During expiration, gas flows through the expiratory flow sensor (38), expiratory valve (40), and Auto/Manual ventilation switch (41) to the folding bag. Airway pressure is monitored by the pressure sensor (53). Excess water condensation from the exhaled gas is collected in the water collection cup, located on the bottom side of the breathing system. The breathing system is easily disassembled and is autoclavable at 134℃. 1.3.4.4 Anesthetic Gas Scavenging System The Anesthetic Gas Scavenging System (AGSS) is composed of the AGSS transfer system, the AGSS receiving system, and the AGSS disposal system. Waste gas goes from the exhaust port of the anesthesia machine through the AGSS transfer system and the AGSS receiving system to the hospital’s waste gas disposal system (AGSS disposal system), as shown below. 32. CO2 Absorber Canister 33. Built-in BYPASS valve Operating handle

The following figure shows the operational theory of the AGSS. The throttling holes reduce

the effect of negative pressure at the AGSS outlet onto the flow at the entrance. The float helps the user determine if the disposal system meets the requirement for the minimum pump rate. The filter provides for filtering of foreign substances to prevent the disposal system from being occluded. The gas reservoir is connected to the air through pressure compensation openings. When positive or negative pressure occurs inside the gas reservoir, gas is inputted or outputted to ensure pressure balance inside the system. The AGSS transfer system is a clear tube with 30 mm purple conical connectors at both ends. The inlet of the transfer system is a female 30 mm conical connector and the outlet a male 30 mm conical connector. The transfer system is connected to the receiving system through the male 30 mm conical connector. The receiving system is connected to the receiving hose through the 30 mm connector. The following picture shows the AGSS structure and the connections between the AGSS transfer system, receiving system, and disposal system.

These modes allow the operator to apply proper ventilation strategy based on the patient’s needs. The types of flow paths through the breathing system vary with the operating mode or status.

1.5.2 Automatic Mode, Inspiration

When the Auto/Manual switch is positioned at Auto, the system closes the manual ventilation path. Drive gas pushes down on the bellows. Gas flows from the bellows, through the CO2 absorber canister, and through the inspiratory check valve to the patient. During inspiration, fresh gas flows into the inspiratory limb, upstream of the inspiratory check valve. In volume mode, tidal volume is compensated for variations in fresh gas flow to ensure that the volume delivered to the patient meets the set value. In pressure mode, the inspiratory pressure is regulated both in gas flow and airway pressure to ensure the airway pressure is held at the set inspiratory pressure during the patient inspirationn.

1.5.3 Automatic Mode, Expiration

When the Auto/Manual switch is set to Auto, the system closes the manual ventilation path. Drive-gas flow stops and the exhaust valve opens. Exhaled gas flows from the patient, through the expiratory check valve, and into the bellows. Residual drive gas flows out of the bellows dome through the exhaust valve to the scavenging system (AGSS). If PEEP is selected, static pressure on the pilot port of the exhaust valve sets the PEEP level. During exhalation, fresh gas flows backwards through the CO2 absorber into the expiratory limb, downstream of the expiratory check valve.

1.5.4 Manual Mode, Inspiration

When the Auto/Manual switch is set to Manual, the system closes the Auto ventilation path. Gas flows from the breathing bag when compressed, through the CO2 absorber canister, into the breathing circuit, and through the inspiratory check valve to the patient. During inspiration, fresh gas flows from the machine into the inspiratory limb, upstream of the inspiratory check valve. If airway pressure exceeds the set value of the APL Valve, the residual gas will pass through the APL Valve to the scavenging system (AGSS).

1.5.5 Manual Mode, Expiration

When the Auto/Manual switch is set to Manual, the system closes the Auto ventilation path. Gas flows from the patient, through the expiratory check valve, and into the breathing bag. During exhalation, fresh gas enters the Breathing System. Residual fresh gas passes through the APL valve to the AGSS. Bellows Exhaust valve Auto/Manu Switch Pop-Off valve Exp.

Therefore, if PEEP is selected, static pressure on the pilot port of the exhalation valve sets the PEEP level during the automatic ventilation. 1.5.7 Ventilator in Standby When the anesthesia system is in standby mode, monitoring will be inactive, and automatic ventilation will be unavailable. The patient should not be ventilated when the system is in standby mode.

1.5.8 Breathing System Components

1.5.8.1 Ventilation Bellows System The ventilator's driving system is a flow generator. Driving gas fills the bellows dome to compress the bellows. The breathing gas is pressed out of the bellows into the patient breathing circuit. The bellows is refilled with fresh gas and the expired gas from the patient. 1.5.8.2 Manual Breathing Bag In manual mode, this device acts as a normal breathing bag, enabling the user to ventilate the patient manually. 1.5.8.3 CO2 Absorber Canister The sodalime inside the CO2 absorber canister absorbs the carbon dioxide from the exhaled gas. The CO2 absorber canister accommodates standard sized Pre-paks or loose-fill CO2 absorbent. 1.5.8.4 Inspiratory and Expiratory Valves To ensure correct gas flow direction to and from the patient, check-valves are integrated in the inspiratory and expiratory limb of the Breathing System. 1.5.8.5 APL (Airway Pressure Limiting) Valve In manual mode, the APL Valve acts as a normal spring-loaded pressure relief valve, limiting the maximum pressure in the Breathing System.

The heater can switch over its operating mode automatically according to the change in ambient temperature. 1.8 Ventilator Pneumatic- O2 Drive Gas 1.8.1 Ventilator Pneumatic Drive Oxygen is the driving gas for the ventilator. In addition to the flow meter block, a high pressure regulator reduces the supply pressure to 200 kPa (29 psi). This pressure represents the drive gas for the ventilator. The drive pressure regulator is placed ahead of the proportional valve that generates the driving gas flow during the inspiratory phase. This flow fills the bellows dome that surrounds the bellows. 1.8.2 Drive Pressure-High Pressure Regulator (200 kPa, 29 psi) The drive pressure regulator stabilizes the supply pressure provided to the proportional valve. The flow generated by the proportional valve is therefore independent of pressure variations at the supply. Setting the drive pressure regulator at 200 kPa (29 psi) allows for a maximum inspiratory flow of 110 L/min at the ventilator. 1.8.3 Drive Gas Assembly The manifold assembly module mainly consists of the inspiratory circuit and PEEP circuit. The inspiratory circuit goes through the normally closed proportional solenoid valve, which generates a gas flow of 0 to 110 L/min by the valve drive board. The gas flow of the PEEP circuit goes through the normally closed proportional solenoid valve, which also generates a gas pressure of 3 to 30 cmH2O by the valve drive board. 1.8.4 Tube Color Coding All the pneumatic tubes used in the anesthesia system are color coded for use in the United States only.
