Warnings, cautions, and notes
Please take the time to familiarize yourself with the warnings, cautions and notes listed here.
They cover safety considerations, special handling requirements, and regulations that govern
the use of the 7200 Series Ventilator System.
To ensure proper servicing and avoid the possibility of physical injury, only qualified
personnel should attempt to service, or make authorized modifications to the ventilator.
The user of this product shall have sole responsibility for any ventilator malfunction
due to operation or maintenance performed by anyone not trained by Puritan Bennett
staff.
• To avoid an electrical shock hazard while servicing the ventilator, be sure to remove all
power to the ventilator by disconnecting the power source and turning off all ventilator
power switches.
• To avoid a fire hazard, keep matches, lighted cigarettes, and all other sources of ignition
(e.g., flammable anesthetics and/or heaters) away from the 7200 Series Ventilator System
and oxygen hoses.
Do not use oxygen hoses that are worn, frayed, or contaminated by combustible materials
such as grease or oils. (Textiles, oils, and other combustibles are easily ignited and burn
with great intensity in air enriched with oxygen.)
In case of fire or a burning smell, immediately disconnect the ventilator from the oxygen
and power supplies.
• When handling any part of the 7200 Series Ventilator System, always follow your hospital
infection control guidelines for handling infectious material.
Puritan Bennett recognizes that cleaning, sterilization, sanitation, and disinfection
practices vary widely among health care institutions. It is not possible for Puritan Bennett
to specify or require specific practices that will meet all needs, or to be responsible for the
effectiveness of cleaning, sterilization, and other practices carried out in the patient care
setting.
Puritan Bennett does recommend that users of its products that require cleaning and
sterilization/disinfection consider the National Standards and Recommended Practices for
Sterilization published by the Association for the Advancement of Medical
Instrumentation (AAMI), as well as the following Center for Disease Control (CDC)
publications: Guidelines for Maintenance of In-use Respiratory Therapy Equipment and
Guidelines for Prevention of Nosocomial Pneumonia.
• Patients on life-support equipment should be appropriately monitored by competent
medical personnel and use of suitable monitoring devices.
The 7200 Series Ventilator System is not intended to be a comprehensive monitoring
device and does not activate alarms for all types of dangerous conditions for patients on
life-support equipment.
• For a thorough understanding of ventilator operations, read the 7200 Series Ventilator
System Operator's Manual before attempting to use the system.
• Before activating any part of the ventilator, be sure to check the equipment for proper
operation and, if appropriate, run the full extended self-test (EST).
• Do not use sharp objects to make selections on the keyboard.
• Federal law (U.S.) restricts the sale of this device to, or by the order of, any physician.
• Check the ventilator periodically as outlined in this manual; do not use if defective.
Immediately replace parts that are broken, missing, obviously worn, distorted, or
contaminated.
• An alternative source of ventilation should always be available when using the 7200
Ventilator System.

Emissions Compliance
Applicable ONLY to those 7200 Series Ventilators bearing the CE label affixed to the rear
panel: the 7200 Ventilator meets the criteria for EN55011 Emissions Classification, CISPR II,
Group I, Class B.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)


The 7200 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical devices in
accordance with the standards listed under "European Standards Compliance.” These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful EMI in a typical medical
installation.
Certain transmitting devices (cellular phones, walkie-talkies, cordless phones, paging
transmitters, etc.) emit radio frequencies that could interrupt ventilator operation if located
in a range too close to the ventilator. It is difficult to determine when the field strength of
these devices becomes excessive. Practitioners should be aware that radio frequency
emissions are additive. The ventilator must be located a sufficient distance from transmitting
devices to avoid interruption. Do not operate the ventilator in a magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) environment. Consult with your institution’s biomedical engineering department in
case of interrupted ventilator operation and before relocating any life support equipment.
Because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting equipment and other sources of
electrical noise in the healthcare environment (for example, cellular phones, mobile two-way
radios, electrical appliances), it is possible that high levels of EMI due to close proximity or
strength of source may result in disruption of performance of the 7200 Ventilator.
The 7200 generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference with other
devices in the vicinity.
Disruption may be evidenced by erratic readings, cessation of operation, or incorrect
functioning of other devices. If this occurs, the site of use should be surveyed to determine
the source of this disruption. The following actions may be taken to eliminate the source:
• Turn equipment in the vicinity off and on to isolate the source of interference.
• Reorient or relocate the 7200.
• Increase the distance between the 7200 and the other equipment.
• Select alternative power receptacle (ac power outlet).
If further assistance is required, contact Puritan Bennett’s Technical Services Department, or
your local Puritan Bennett Representative.

Environmental Protection
Puritan Bennett recommends that customers or technical services personnel follow local
governing ordinances and recycling instructions regarding disposal or recycling of the battery
or other device components.

European Standards Compliance
The following statement is applicable only to 7200 Series Ventilators bearing a CE label
affixed to the rear panel.
The application to the ventilator of a label bearing this symbol signifies that the 7200
Ventilator complies with the requirements of IEC 601-1-2, (EMC Collateral Standard),
including the E-field susceptibility requirements at a level of 3 V per meter, at frequencies
from 26 MHz to 1 GHz, and the ESD requirements of this standard. However, even at this
level of device immunity, certain transmitting devices (cellular phones, walkie-talkies,
cordless phones, paging instruments, etc.) emit radio frequencies which could interrupt
ventilator operation if located too close to the ventilator. It is difficult to determine when the
field strength of these devices becomes excessive.
Practitioners should be aware that radio frequency emissions are additive, and that the
ventilator must be located a sufficient distance from transmitting devices to avoid
interruption. Do not operate the ventilator in a magnetic imaging (MRI) environment.
Section 3 describes possible ventilator alarms and what to do if they occur. Consult with your
institutions’s biomedical engineering department in case of interrupted ventilator operation,
and before relocating any life support equipment.
Where this symbol is present on the 7200 Series Ventilator, it signifies that the ventilator
complies with the requirements of Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and with the
requirements of Council Directive 89/336/EEC relating to Electromagnetic compatibility.
Where the CE symbol is not present on the ventilator, the statements appearing on this page
relating to compliance with the requirements of IEC 601-1-2 (EMC Collateral Standard), and
of Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and with the requirements of Council Directive 89/
336/EEC related to Electromagnetic compatibility do NOT apply. Please verify the existence
of this symbol by observing a label affixed to the ventilator rear panel.

Customer assistance
For further assistance call Puritan Bennett Technical Support group at 800.255.6774 or
contact your local Puritan Bennett representative.

General Information 1 1
This section provides introductory information for the Puritan-Bennett 7200 Series
Ventilatory System. Included is information on ventilator configurations, performance
specifications and characteristics, software options and a list of recommended tools and test
equipment.

1.1 Safety
Warning
• To prevent personal injury or death, do not attempt any ventilator service, repair, or parts
replacement while a patient or other person is connected to the ventilator, or when the
ventilator is connected to ac power.
• To prevent disease transmission, use personal protective equipment when handling
contaminated bacterial filters or other patient accessories. Use Cavicide or equivalent to
kill bloodborne pathogens, as required.
• Ventilator maintenance may involve exposure to hazardous materials, equipment and
conditions such as: possible electrical shock; pressurized gas; transmittable diseases; and
fire, which could result from an oxygen-enriched environment and easily ignitable
material. Before servicing the 7200 Series Ventilatory System, be aware of possible hazards
and take necessary precautions.

• Familiarize yourself with and adhere to all safety warnings and cautions on the
ventilator labels and in related publications, including this manual. Also familiarize
yourself with any warnings and cautions associated with the service equipment and
materials being used, as well as those posted in the facility where the ventilator is serviced.
Failure to adhere to such warnings and cautions at all times may result in injury or
property damage.
• Use any applicable personal protective equipment and adhere to its applicable
warnings and cautions.
• Be aware of any safety standards and considerations specific to your situation. Safety
standards may vary with international, federal, state, and local regulatory agencies. When
in doubt, consult material safety data sheets; environmental, health, and safety
professionals; and regulatory affairs specialists. In addition, many facilities and
institutions may have their own safety procedures. Be sure to follow these in addition to
the precautions here.
• After servicing the ventilator, ensure it passes the performance verification test
(Section 7) before it is returned to operation. Performance verification ensures the safe
operation of the ventilator and its functional integrity.

1 General Information

1.2 General Product Description


The 7200 Series Ventilator and its various options and accessories comprise the 7200 Series
Ventilatory System, shown in Figure 1-1. The system’s capabilities range from controlled
mandatory breathing to fully spontaneous breathing. It operates in CMV, SIMV, and CPAP
modes.
The 7200 ventilator delivers breaths according to parameters and other data input by the
operator via a membrane keyboard. The ventilator communicates with the operator by
displaying parameters, system-generated messages, alarms, and other indications on the
ventilator front panel. An audio alarm also alerts the operator to emergency situations.
The 7200 ventilator has provisions for a metabolic monitor which, when installed, assists the
physician in determining vital respiratory and metabolic needs of a patient.
The ventilator is an electrically powered tabletop unit that operates on pressurized air and
oxygen sources. A pedestal or cart assembly is available to support the ventilator. An optional
compressor assembly installed in the pedestal provides compressed air if wall air is not
available.

1.3 Configuration Information


The 7200 Series Ventilatory System is currently available in a variety of versions, intended to
meet differing needs and regulations throughout the world. In addition, various software and
hardware changes have been made to the ventilator since its introduction.

1.3.1 Configuration Differences


The major differences in configuration among ventilators are listed below.
• Language. Keyboard, labels, software, displays, and operator’s manual are available in a
variety of languages.
• Electrical requirements. Available in 100 V/50 Hz, 100 V/60 Hz, 115 V/60 Hz, 220 V/50
Hz, 220 V/60 Hz, 240 V/50 Hz.
• Compressor. With or without compressor compartment.
• Cart or pedestal assembly. With pedestal assembly (with or without compressor inside),
cart assembly, or stand-alone.
• Exhalation compartment. With internal exhalation valve, bottom-loading exhalation
compartment.
• Keyboards. Multicolor Enhanced-Plus keyboard, which includes individual option keys
and bar graph-type airway pressure display.
• Alarm tone. Continuous or pulsed (intermittent) tone.
• PCB set. Different ventilators may have between four and six PCBs in their card cage slots.
All ventilators have conversion and interface PCBs. In 80188 microprocessor-based
ventilators, however, two PCBs (80188 CPU PCB or megaCPU PCB, and DCI-display

1.3.4 Accessories
The following accessories can be used with the ventilator.
• Patient system, either conventional or simplified. The use of a Puritan Bennett patient
tubing circuit is recommended.
• Humidifier. The ventilator includes an electrical ac socket and a mounting plate to
accommodate a humidifier.
• 7202 Display. Supplements the visual information provided on the ventilator’s keyboard
display panel by providing enhanced viewing of ventilator messages, detailed readouts of
ventilator settings and status, and visibility of ventilator conditions from a wide variety of
angles and distances. See Section 20 for information on servicing this accessory.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 1-5
1 General Information

• 7250 Metabolic Monitor. Measures O2 consumption and CO2 production of patients on


the 7200ae Ventilator. Uses these measurements and other calculations to help determine
the patient’s ventilatory, metabolic, and nutritional requirements. See the 7250 Metabolic
Monitor Service and Operator’s Manual (P/N 4-022396-00) for information on servicing this
accessory.
• Oxygen Monitor. It is recommended that an Oxygen monitor be used with the ventilator
to provide a backup means of monitoring oxygen concentrations. The MiniOx 3000
(P/N 4-023698-00) is available and can be mounted to the ventilator with the MiniOx
3000 Vent Mount bracket (P/N 4-023413-00).
• Analog recorder/remote nurse call unit. An analog output connector on the utility
panel permits connection to a remote nurse call unit. (Puritan Bennett does not supply
analog recorders, remote nurse call units, or the cables to connect them.)
• Printer. The Digital Communications Interface option (Option 20) provides a method for
sending pre-formatted reports to a printer. Table 1-2 lists the specifications for a
compatible printer.

1.3.5 Options
Because the 7200 Series Ventilator is microprocessor-controlled, software and hardware
options can be added. Consult your Puritan Bennett sales representative for information on
ordering any of the following options. Table 1-3 lists the ventilator hardware required to run
these options.
• Option 10: Pressure Support. Permits the operator to select a positive pressure that
is active during the inspiratory phase of any spontaneous breath. In some cases, Pressure
Support may reduce the patient’s inspiratory work of breathing by negating the resistance
at the endotracheal tube.
• Option 20: Digital Communications Interface (DCI).The earlier version (DCI 1.0)
equips the ventilator to transmit pre-formatted reports to a printer. The later version (DCI
2.0) allows you to configure one of the ventilator’s ports either for a printer or for a second
interactive device (other than the 7250 Metabolic Monitor). The ability to communicate
with one interactive device plus the 7250 Monitor is a standard feature on the ventilator.

1-6 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
General Information 1
• Option 30/40: Respiratory Mechanics/Monitoring. Allows the ventilator to perform
respiratory maneuvers and monitoring with no special setup. The maneuvers measure,
calculate, and display parameters that describe the mechanical status of a patient’s lung
and respiratory muscles.
• The Static Mechanics maneuver calculates static compliance and airway resistance of a
patient’s lungs. The Negative Inspiratory Pressure maneuver measures the maximum
sub-PEEP inspiratory pressure a patient can generate against an occluded airway over a
three-second period. The Vital Capacity maneuver measures the maximum volume a
patient can exhale following a maximal inspiratory effort (not a forced vital capacity).
• The Dynamic Mechanics monitoring function calculates compliance and airway resistance
as a breath is delivered. The Peak Spontaneous Flow monitoring function measures,
calculates, and displays the maximum inspiratory flow for spontaneous breaths. During
all maneuvers, the patient-ventilator connection remains undisturbed.
• Option 50: Flow-by. Minimizes the delay between the patient’s inspiratory effort and the
supply of gas to the patient wye. Supplies a predetermined flow of gas to the patient
tubing circuit before inspiration, making fresh gas available to the patient as soon as
inspiratory effort begins. Requires an internal exhalation valve and in-circuit water traps.
The later version (Flow-by 2.0) provides the added advantage that all patient-initiated
breaths, including pressure-supported breaths and apnea ventilation, can be flow-
triggered.
• Option 60: Graphics. Enhances the monitoring capabilities of the 7200ae by showing
patient data and waveform curves on the 7202 Display. Six types of waveform curve show
patient activity: Pressure vs. Time, Flow vs. Time, Volume vs. Time, Plethysmograph vs.
Time, Pressure vs. Volume, and Flow vs. Volume. The later version (Graphics 2.0) adds a
trending capability, allowing up to 12 (from a menu of over 30) parameters to be trended
for up to 72 hours; these include metabolic monitoring parameters. Graphics 2.0 also
includes these indices: rapid shallow breathing index (RR/VT), fraction of inspiratory
time/total cycle time (Ti /Ttot), and mean inspiratory flow (VT/Ti).
• Option 80: Pressure Control Ventilation. Permits the 7200ae to deliver constant-
pressure mandatory breaths in CMV, SIMV, and CPAP modes. Unlike volume ventilation,
which is designed to deliver mandatory breaths at a preset volume and peak flow, pressure
ventilation delivers mandatory breaths, at a preset inspiratory pressure and time or I:E
ratio. Volume and flow may vary on a breath-to-breath basis, depending on changes in
patient compliance and resistance.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 1-7
1 General Information

• Option 90: Pulse Oximetry. A combined hardware accessory and software option that
noninvasively determines a patient’s functional arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and
pulse rate by sensing the absorption of two wavelengths of light passed through living
tissue. The hardware that supports this option includes the pulse oximetry PCB, which is
integral to the ventilator, and associated cabling and sensors.

Theory of Operation 2 2
This section details the operational theory of the 7200 Series Ventilator. It begins by
describing the overall operation of the ventilator and continues by describing the pneumatic
system, including the individual components and their operations as subsystems. Next, it
describes the electrical system, including the operations of the printed circuit boards (PCBs).
Finally, the operational descriptions define the interactions between all ventilator
components during various types of operation.
For a clinical theory of operation, consult the 7200 Series Operator’s Manual.

2.1 Overview of Ventilator Operation


The 7200 Series Ventilator consists of two major systems: the pneumatic system and the
electrical system. The pneumatic system, under control of the microprocessor in the electrical
system, supplies air and oxygen to the patient system external to the ventilator. Air for
delivery to the patient and to operate the pneumatic components is provided by an external
supply or by an optional compressor. Oxygen is provided by an external supply source.
The pneumatic system consists of two parallel pneumatic gas circuits: one for oxygen and one
for air. An important element of the pneumatic system is the two proportional solenoid
valves (PSOLs), which precisely control the flow delivered to the patient. Air and oxygen flow
sensors provide feedback, which is used by the microprocessor (CPU) to control the PSOLs. As
a result, the ventilator is able to supply air and oxygen to a patient according to requirements
preselected by an operator at the ventilator keyboard. The output of mixed air and oxygen
passes through a patient system external to the ventilator; this patient system may be
composed of tubing, filters, a nebulizer, water traps, and a humidifier. The patient exhales the
gas through the opened exhalation valve. This exhalation valve is part of the ventilator in
units equipped with internal exhalation valves. For ventilators without this internal valve,
the exhalation valve is part of the patient system.
The electrical system includes a card cage, housing four to six PCBs. If the ventilator is a later
model based on the Intel 80188 Microprocessor, the CPU control, memory, and display
control functions are combined into two PCBs. In earlier models these functions exist on
three PCBs. Additionally, an optional pulse oximetry PCB is available. Initial instructions and
data for microprocessor use are entered by the operator via the ventilator keyboard. The data
is then stored in the ventilator memory. The CPU uses the stored data to control and monitor
the desired flow of gas to the patient system.
Power to operate the ventilator comes from three power supplies providing +5 V, +12 V, and
±15 V outputs. Also, a rechargeable battery unit supplies standby power to operate the alarm
and to maintain critical ventilator data in memory during a power interruption.

2.2 Pneumatic System


The pneumatic system, shown in Figure 2-1 (with internal exhalation valve) or Figure 2-2
(with external exhalation valve), includes these systems: wall gas (compressed air and
oxygen) supply, compressor, flow control, exhalation, PEEP/CPAP (positive end expiratory
pressure/continuous positive airway pressure), safety valve, and patient.

2.2.1.1 Component Descriptions


The wall gas supply system components, shown in Figure 2-3 and 2-4, are described below.
Oxygen and air, water traps and filters (F1 and F3). These two externally mounted
water traps contain filters that capture particles as small as 0.3 µm with 99.98%
efficiency. F1 and F3 remove water droplets in the oxygen or air line but are not
guaranteed to remove all moisture from the gas line. Water entering the pneumatic
system will eventually damage the pneumatic components. These filters are included
in all preventive maintenance kits. The water trap inlet filters are diameter and thread
indexed to prevent cross-connection after servicing.
Oxygen and air inlet filters (F2 and F4). Two filters located between the water trap
cap and base. They are capable of capturing particles as small as 20 µm. These filters
also prevent particles from entering the ventilator when F1 and F3 are replaced. The
water trap cap and base are screw hole indexed to prevent cross-connection after
servicing. They are contained in the 10,000-hour preventive maintenance kit.
Oxygen and air pressure switches (PS1 or PS2). These switches sense a loss of wall
gas supply pressure. These switches are in the closed position with gas supplied. They
open if gas pressure falls below 35 psig nominal. The switches are included as part of
the oxygen and air regulator assemblies contained in the 10,000-hour preventive
maintenance kit.

Theory of Operation 0
Theory of Operation 2
Theory of Operation B
Oxygen and air check valves (CV1 or CV2). A high-pressure unidirectional flow device, mounted
downstream of the pressure switch, which prevents ventilator backflow into the wall air or oxygen
system. The check valves are included in the 10,000-hour preventive maintenance kit.
Oxygen and air regulators and outlet screen filters (REG1 and REG2, F10 and F11). A
spring-loaded, pressure-relieving regulator. Regulators 1 and 2 maintain an output pressure of 10
psig (68.95 kPa), with an input pressure of 35 to 100 psig (241.33 to 689.50 kPa). The regulator
outlet screen filters are capable of capturing particles as small as 75 µm. These wire-mesh filters help
protect the oxygen and air flow sensors (Q1/T1 and Q2/T2) and the proportional solenoid valves
(PSOL1 and PSOL2) from debris. The regulator assemblies contained in the 10,000-hour preventive
maintenance kit includes the regulator, check valve, pressure switch and outlet screen filter.
Cross-over solenoid valve (SOL3). A +12 V, three-way solenoid valve. When de-energized, it
allows wall air or compressor air to operate the PEEP/CPAP and Safety Valve Systems. When SOL3
is energized, it supplies these two downstream systems with 100% oxygen. SOL3 energizes when
wall air and compressor air are not available, or during BUV when oxygen is connected.
Pilot pressure outlet filter (F7). Translucent plastic filter that protects the PEEP/CPAP and Safety
Valve Systems. F7 captures internally generated particles at 0.3 µm nominal size. The filter is
included in the 10,000-hour preventive maintenance kit.

2.2.1.2 System Operation


During inspiration, oxygen from an external supply enters the ventilator through filters F1
and F2. If an external source of compressed air is available, the air passes through filters F3
and F4. Gas contaminants in the wall supplies are trapped by these filters. Oxygen and air
pressure switches PS1 and PS2 continually monitor these supply lines for pressure loss.
Oxygen and air then flow through oxygen and air check valves CV1 and CV2. These check
valves prevent backflow that could contaminate the wall supply lines. Oxygen and air
regulators REG1 and REG2 reduce the supply pressures from between 35 and 100 psig to 10
psig nominal. Excess REG1 pressure is vented to a common port. Excess REG2 pressure is
vented to the atmosphere (room air) through the REG2 bleed port.
If an external source of air is available and of adequate pressure, this air passes through SOL3
and F7 into the PEEP/CPAP and safety valve systems. Should this external air supply be lost,
the compressor takes over. If the compressor pressure drops below 8 psi, the cross-over
solenoid SOL3 is energized, supplying pure oxygen to these systems. See Section 2.4.3.7 (wall
air-to-compressor switchover).

2.2.2.1 Component Descriptions


The motor compressor system components, shown in Figure 2-5 and 2-6, are described below.
Compressor inlet filter (F5). Removes dust from room air entering the compressor. It can capture
particles as small as 10 to 50 µm. This filter is included in the compressor 2,500 and 10,000-hour
preventive maintenance kits.
Inlet silencer. Acts as a muffler to reduce the sound created by the compressor. The inlet silencer is
a hollow container.
Compressor. A rotary, 4-carbon vane compressor and 1/2-hp motor assembly, mounted on a frame
and located inside the compressor pedestal. The motor compressor delivers an output of 120 lpm at
10 psi (68.95 kPa). The motor compressor assembly and shock mounts, for vibration reduction, are
included in the compressor 10,000-hour preventive maintenance kit.
Compressor outlet filter (F6). This filter captures carbon dust generated by the compressor. The
filter captures particles as small as 0.3 µm. This filter may be tested by hand; shake it and if it rattles,
it is bad and must be replaced. The filter is included in the compressor 10,000-hour preventive
maintenance kit.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 2-11
2 Theory of Operation

Pulsation dampers. The pulsation dampers add capacitance to the compressor system. This helps to
smooth out pressure pulsations created by the motor compressor assembly. The dampers are two
coils of silicone tubing and are included in the compressor 10,000-hour preventive maintenance kit.
Heat exchanger. A coil of copper tubing that cools the gas heated by compression. The heat
exchanger and compressor cooling fan keep the air temperature at Q2/T2 from exceeding the
maximum allowable operating temperature.
Compressor unloading solenoid valve (SOL9). A +12 V, two-way solenoid valve that reduces the
start-up current created by the motor compressor assembly. When the motor compressor is started,
the solenoid is energized which vents the compressor output to atmosphere. During normal
operation, the solenoid is de-energized, thus closing the vent to atmosphere.
Compressor pressure switch (PS3). Monitors the compressor system outlet pressure and is used to
test the compressor system at startup. The normally open switch is closed when the compressor
output pressure is nominally 8 psig. When the pressure falls too low, the switch opens, an alarm is
given and the ventilator switches to the oxygen source. The switch should be calibrated as part of
every compressor preventive maintenance procedure.
Compressor back pressure regulator (REG3). Maintains a constant pressure of 10 psig throughout
the 0 to 120 lpm flow operating range by venting excess compressor output to atmosphere. The
regulator should be calibrated as part of every compressor preventive maintenance procedure.
Compressor check valve (CV4). A high-pressure, unidirectional flow device that prevents wall air
from escaping through the compressor. CV4 is identical in design and function to CV1 and CV2 (in
the wall gas supply system).
Vent silencer. Located in the ventilator cabinet, the vent silencer acts as a muffler to reduce the
sound created by REG3 as it relieves. The vent silencer vents are vented towards Q2/T2 to allow a
reduced temperature stabilization time.

2.2.2.2 System Operation (Figure 2-5)


The ventilator signals the compressor motor to start if pressure switch PS2 senses that wall air
is unavailable or pressure is insufficient (less than 35 psig or 241.33 kPa). When the
compressor starts up, SOL9 energizes to momentarily reduce the load on the compressor.
The compressor inside the ventilator compressor pedestal draws air from the atmosphere
through inlet filter F5 and through the inlet silencer to the compressor inlet. The compressed
air leaving the compressor outlet passes through outlet filter F6, which traps the carbon
material generated from the bonded carbon vanes wear. Air then passes through the
pulsation damper and the heat exchanger prior to passing through check valve CV4, which
prevents the compressed air from the wall air source from flowing back into the compressor
outlet.
The back pressure regulator REG3 adjusts the compressor output pressure to 8.75 to 10.25 psi
(60.33 to 70.67 kPa). As the compressor vanes wear and the compressor flow output drops
accordingly, the gas vented from the regulator decreases proportionately, permitting a
relatively constant pressure to be maintained in the pneumatic system.
If pressure to compressor pressure switch PS3 falls below a nominal 8 psig, the switch closes,
a low pressure inlet alarm is given, and the ventilator switches to the oxygen source.

2.2.3.1 Component Descriptions


The flow control system components, shown in Figure 2-8, are described below.
Oxygen or air flow and temperature sensors (Q1/T1 or Q2/T2). Each pair of sensors comprises a
single unit that provides flow and temperature information on gas delivered by the proportional
solenoids. The oxygen and air flow sensors (Q1 and Q2) are hot film anemometers. Thermistors T1
and T2 measure the oxygen and air temperature, which is necessary for flow compensation. Each
pair of sensors comes with an EPROM that contains specific calibration data. The sensors and their
corresponding EPROM have identical serial numbers. The EPROMs are installed on the DCI-
Display Controller PCB for 80188-based units and for 8088-based units on the Memory PCB for
8088-based units.
Oxygen and air proportional solenoid valves (PSOL1 and PSOL2). Operate under
microprocessor control to deliver a precisely controlled gas flow. These valves are more like linear
motors than solenoid valves in that as current applied to the valves is increased, they open
proportionately more thus increasing the flow output. Tidal volume and waveforms are
accomplished by controlling flow over time. Rate is accomplished by the frequency of operation of
the valves. Oxygen percentages are accomplished by the flow relationships between the oxygen and
air valves. The Proportional Solenoid valve assembly consists of PSOL1, PSOL2, SOL1 and SOL2
and is replaced as a single unit if one of the PSOLs are faulty.

2-14 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Theory of Operation 2
Oxygen or air nebulizer solenoid valve (SOL1 or SOL2). A +12 V, two way solenoid valve which,
when energized, delivers approximately 7-9 lpm at 10 psig to the nebulizer located in the patient
circuit. The solenoids energize if the Nebulizer feature is activated and only during inspiration.
SOL1 is utilized if the operator selected oxygen percentage is above 60%. SOL2 is utilized if the
operator selected oxygen percentage is equal to or below 60%. Gas flow from the nebulizer solenoids
is accounted for and compensated by the proportional solenoid valves. The Proportional Solenoid
Valve Assembly consists of PSOL1, PSOL2, SOL1 and SOL2. If one of the nebulizer solenoids is
faulty, the solenoid can be rebuilt or replaced. Caution must be taken to prevent debris from entering
the PSOL manifold when servicing either of the nebulizer solenoids.
P2 inlet damping restrictor (R5). An aluminum disc milled with a small orifice in the center. This
disc is installed in the pneumatic tubing. The restrictor (the small orifice) dampens the pressure
oscillations caused by the safety valve, that can affect P2s’ pressure measurements.
Absolute pressure transducer (P2). A differential pressure transducer with one port sealed which
permits psia measurement units instead of psig. Measurements made by P2 are used by the
microprocessor to check for patient tubing disconnections and to measure atmospheric pressure. P2
is autozeroed by measuring atmospheric pressure every minute for the first ten minutes and then
hourly. P2 is located on the Pressure Transducer PCB and is easily identified because only one of its
ports has tubing connected.
Exhalation pilot pressure network (R6, R7, CV6, CV7) (internal exhalation valve only).
Ensures that the exhalation valve stays closed during inspiration, even during moments of low flow
rates or no flow from the proportional solenoid valves. Restrictors R6 and R7 are aluminum discs
milled with small orifices that are assembled to form a pressure divider network that establishes
approximately 14-17 cmH 2O pressure. CV6 prevents this established pressure from escaping to the
patient circuit and CV7 prevents higher pressures from the PSOLs from leaking back through R7.
CV6 and CV7 work together to pass the 14-17 cmH2O pressure to the exhalation system.

2.2.3.2 System Operation (Figure 2-7)


Based on operator selected ventilatory parameters, the CPU opens PSOL1 and PSOL2. The
microprocessor samples Q1/T1 and Q2/T2 that make gas flow and temperature
measurements. The temperature measurements are used to correct the temperature
dependent flow measurements. Based on the data provided by Q1/T1 and Q2/T2, the CPU
adjusts PSOL1 and PSOL2 as necessary.
Mixed gas now flows from the junction of PSOL1 and PSOL2, ultimately destined for the
patient. If the nebulizer feature is active, either the oxygen solenoid (SOL1) or the air solenoid
(SOL2) is energized depending on the operator selected oxygen percentage. This pilots the
nebulizer located in the patient circuit.
The absolute pressure transducer P2, at the junction of PSOL1 and PSOL2, measures the PSOL
outlet pressure and atmospheric pressure. These pressure measurements are processed by the
CPU to calculate flow data. Based on the flow data, the CPU can detect patient tubing
disconnect occurrences.
During inspiration, the exhalation pilot pressure restrictors R6 and R7 form a pressure divider
network that maintains a minimum exhalation drive line pressure of 14 cmH2O. Check valve
CV6 prevents flow from the restrictor network from being delivered to the patient system and
CV7 prevents flow from the outlet of the PSOLs from bleeding out through R7.

2.2.4.1 Component Descriptions


The safety valve system components, shown in Figure 2-10, are described below.
Safety valve pilot restrictors (R1 and R2). These restrictors are aluminum discs milled with small
orifices in the center of the disc. These discs are installed in the pneumatic tubing. R1, in conjunction
with REG4, establishes a pressure of 60 cmH2O, to pilot the safety valve closed. R2 is for damping
purposes only.
Safety valve back pressure regulator (REG4). A back pressure regulator that works in conjunction
with restrictor R1. The back pressure regulator works to establish a pressure of 60 cmH2O to pilot the
safety valve closed.
Safety valve pilot solenoid valve (SOL5). A +12 V, three-way solenoid valve which is energized
during normal ventilation so the 60 cmH2O pressure from R1, R2 and REG4 will close the safety
valve. To open the safety valve, SOL5 is de-energized.
Safety valve/check valve (SV/CV3) assembly. The safety valve consists of diaphragm and seating
components. During normal ventilation, the valve is closed with a 60 cmH2O pressure applied via
SOL5. In the closed position, flow delivered from PSOL1 and PSOL2 is routed to the patient circuit.
If the valve is open, any gas delivered exits to the atmosphere. The safety valve has two important
safety functions:
• First, if outlet pressure exceeds the maximum operating pressure of the patient system
(120 to 150 cmH2O for all units except German, 100 to 120 cmH2O for German units),
the safety valve passively relieves excess pressure. The actual safety valve relief pressure
may vary within a single unit, depending on the combined relief and patient flow rate.
• Second, if the microprocessor detects a catastrophic failure, the Safety Valve Open
(SVO) alarm is declared and the safety valve is opened by de-energizing SOL5. This
allows the patient to freely breathe room air.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 2-17
2 Theory of Operation

The check valve (CV3), located in the safety valve’s manifold, prevents back flow of the
patient’s exhaled gas while the safety valve is open, preventing the patient from rebreathing
this gas.

2.2.4.2 System Operation


Should the operating pressure of the patient system exceed 120 to 150 cmH 2O due to a
system failure, the safety valve will automatically sense and relieve the excess pressure.
In case of a catastrophic ventilator failure, such as a power failure, safety valve solenoid SOL5
is de-energized, venting the pilot pressure to atmosphere. This causes the safety valve to open
and permits the patient to breathe room air.
CV3, prevents the patient from rebreathing their exhaled gases by ensuring exhalation flow
occurs only through the exhalation system.

2.2.5 Patient System
The patient system, shown in Figure 2-11, includes those “external” components that deliver
gas from the ventilator to the patient, control patient ventilation, and isolate the ventilator
from the patient with bacterial-level filters. The patient system also heats and humidifies
delivered gas if a humidifier is installed.
Puritan Bennett offers two categories of reusable patient systems for use on the 7200 Series:
the simplified and the conventional. The simplified patient system is used on ventilators with
internal exhalation valves, while the conventional patient system is used on ventilators with
external exhalation valves. The simplified patient system components include the main flow
bacteria filter, the collector vial, and optionally, the humidifier, water traps, and a nebulizer.
The conventional patient system includes all of these components plus a patient pressure
filter (F9), a patient pressure water trap, and an exhalation valve. Collector vials in the
conventional and simplified patient systems differ physically, but not functionally.

2.2.5.1 Component Descriptions


The patient system components are described below and shown in Figure 2-13. For
information on the various simplified and conventional tubing circuits offered by Puritan
Bennett, consult the product catalog.
Main flow bacteria filter. Helps protect the patient from contamination by the gas supplies, and
helps protect the ventilator from contamination by the patient system. The main flow bacteria filter
captures particles as small as 0.3 µm at a flow of 100 lpm with 99.97% efficiency.
Collector vial. Collects moisture in the exhaled gas to help keep water out of the exhalation system,
in particular the exhalation bacteria filter.
Patient pressure bacteria filter (F9) (conventional patient system only) or nebulizer bacteria
filter. Helps minimize contamination of the ventilator by the patient system. It filters 0.3 µm
nominal particles at a flow of 10 lpm with 99.97% efficiency.
Patient pressure water trap (conventional patient system only). Collects moisture in the patient
pressure line to prevent if from getting into the ventilator and interfering with its proper operation.
Exhalation valve (units with external exhalation valve only). A pneumatically actuated valve that
closes during inspiration to prevent delivered gas from venting to atmosphere. During exhalation, it
opens sufficiently to permit exhalation, while maintaining the operator-selected PEEP.

2.2.6 Exhalation System
The exhalation system, shown in Figure 2-14, filters and monitors the flow of the patient’s
exhaled gas. The exhalation valve is part of the exhalation system in ventilators with an
internal exhalation valve. In ventilators with an external exhalation valve, the exhalation
valve is part of the patient system.

2.2.6.1 Component Descriptions


The exhalation system components, shown in Figure 2-15, are described below.

Bacteria filter heater. The temperature of exhaled gas is approximately 27oC as it enters the
exhalation compartment. The bacteria filter heater raises the temperature of the exhaled gases as it
passes through the exhalation bacteria filter on its way to exhalation flow and temperature sensors
Q3/T3. Heating the gas prevents moisture from condensing in the filter element and Q3/T3. The exit
gas temperature is approximately 4.4 to 5.6 °C (39.92 to 50 °F) above the temperature at the filter
inlet. The heater housing also contains a fuse that provides over-current protection.

Caution
Do not use heated wire circuits in the expiratory limb of the patient circuit. This can cause
condensation in the exhalation compartment and may damage the flow sensor.

Exhalation bacteria filter. This filter captures bacteria to minimize bacteria in the patient’s exhaled
gas from being vented to the room air which reduces cross-contamination of the ventilator. The

2 Theory of Operation

exhalation bacteria filter captures particles as small as 0.3 µm at a flow of 100 lpm with 99.97%
efficiency. A heating element surrounding the filter raises the temperature of exhaled gases above the
dewpoint to prevent condensation and corrosion of Q3 and the components in the exhalation system.
Exhalation check valve (CV5). A one-way device that prevents room air from entering through the
exhalation system. CV5 works with CV3 in the Safety Valve System to prevent the patient from
rebreathing their exhaled gases during a safety valve open (SVO) condition. There are four different
versions of the exhalation check valve, one for each of the four different configurations of the front
and bottom loading exhalation compartments and internal and exhalation valves.
Exhalation flow and temperature sensors (Q3/T3). A pair of sensors comprising a single unit that
provide flow and temperature information on a patient’s exhaled gas. Q3, a hot-film anemometer
flow sensor, measures exhaled gas flows in the range 1 to 200 lpm. T3 is a thermistor that measures
the temperature of the exhaled gas and provides it to the CPU. The CPU processes these two
readings, correcting for the temperature of the measured flow. Q3/T3 comes with a matched EPROM
for installation on 80188-based ventilators equipped to use with a 7250 metabolic monitor.
Exhalation valve (internal exhalation valve option only). A pneumatically actuated valve that
closes during inspiration to prevent delivered gas from venting to atmosphere. During exhalation, it
opens sufficiently to maintain the operator-selected PEEP. The exhalation valve is piloted by the
exhalation pilot control solenoid valve, SOL4. There are two different exhalation valves, one for the
current bottom loading exhalation system and one for the earlier front loading exhalation
compartment system. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the exhalation valve.

2.2.6.2 System Operation (Figure 2-14)


During inspiration, the exhalation valve will be piloted closed by the Exhalation Pilot
Control Network (for internal exhalation valves only) and the pressure created by the
delivered flow from the PSOLs. This allows all delivered flow to be directed to the patient. The
CPU monitors Q3/T3 during inspiration to check for exhalation valve leaks.
During exhalation, the exhalation valve is opened allowing the patient to exhale into the
exhalation system. The exhaled gas first reaches the heated exhalation bacteria filter which
captures bacteria and heats the gas to prevent condensation on the exhalation components
to follow. Passing through the exhalation check valve CV5, the gas continues to the
exhalation flow sensor Q3/T3. The CPU monitors the flow and temperature measurements
made by Q3/T3 and uses the data for calculating the exhaled tidal volume. From Q3/T3, the
exhaled gas travels to the exhalation valve (for internal exhalation valves only) that is opened
enough to maintain operator selected PEEP/CPAP levels.

2.2.7 PEEP/CPAP System


The PEEP/CPAP system is shown in Figure 2-16. This system opens the exhalation valve to

Figure 2-16. PEEP/CPAP System Diagram

2.2.7.1 Component Descriptions


The PEEP/CPAP system components, shown in Figure 2-17, are described below.
PEEP/CPAP solenoid valve (SOL7). A +12 V, three-way valve that is normally energized to
continually supply gas to REG5. The normally open port on the solenoid is plugged and not used.
SOL7 is electrically in parallel with SOL5 in the safety valve system. If a SVO condition is present,
both the safety valve and the exhalation valve are open allowing the patient to freely breathe room
air.
PEEP/CPAP regulator (REG5). An operator adjustable pressure regulator used to set the PEEP/
CPAP proportional pressure. This proportional pressure maintains PEEP in the circuit. The inlet
pressure to REG5 is 10 psig (68.95 kPa) nominal. The outlet pressure ranges from 0 to 52 cmH2O.

Adjustable restrictor (R3). An adjustable needle valve which is used to calibrate maximum PEEP/
CPAP proportional pressure to 41 cmH2O.

Jet venturi (JV). A pressure regulating device that together with REG5 and R3, permits the operator
to adjust and establish the PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure over the range of 0 to 41 cmH2O. The
JV maintains a steady PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure throughout each breath cycle. As the
exhalation valve opens, the jet venturi vents excess pressure. When the exhalation valve closes, the
jet venturi preserves pressure. The action of the jet venturi is partially a safety measure. If it fails,
pressure would diminish and not increase when needed.
Damping restrictor bacteria filter (F8). Helps remove debris that could plug the damping restrictor
orifices. F8 captures internally generated particles of 0.3 µm nominal size. This filter is included in
the 10,000 hour preventive maintenance kit.
Damping restrictor (R4). An aluminum disc with a small orifice in the center, that is placed in the
pneumatic line between F8 and the air capacitor. R4, works in concert with the air capacitor to
smooth pressure variances that result from SOL4 actuation. This part is included in the 10,000 hour
preventive maintenance kit.

2-26 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Theory of Operation 2
Air capacitor. A hollow cylinder, which functions as a pressure dampener. Along with R4, it helps
stabilize pressure fluctuations caused by SOL4 actuation. The air capacitor is included in the 10,000
hour preventive maintenance kit.
Exhalation pilot control solenoid valve (SOL4). This valve is at the crossroads of the Flow
Control, PEEP/CPAP and Exhalation Systems. It is a +12 V, three-way valve that selects the
pneumatic piloting pressure for the exhalation valve, during inspiration and exhalation. SOL4 is
energized during inspiration, therefore, the exhalation valve is piloted by either the exhalation pilot
control network, R6, R7, CV6 and CV7, or from the PSOLs. During exhalation, SOL4 is de-
energized, thus applying PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure to the exhalation valve. SOL4 is
included in the ventilator 10,000 hour preventive maintenance kit.
PEEP/CPAP pressure transducer (P1). A differential pressure transducer that measures the
difference between PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure and the atmosphere. P1 is autozeroed every
minute for the first 10 minutes of ventilator operation and then hourly. P1 is located on the Pressure
Transducer PCB. It can be identified because on this transducer, only port 2 has a tubing connector.
P1 autozero solenoid valve (SOL8). A +6 V, three-way valve, which, when periodically activated,
allows the PEEP/CPAP pressure transducer P1 to be autozeroed by venting to atmosphere (room air).
SOL8 is supplied with +12 V for rapid actuation.
Differential Pressure Transducer (DP). A differential pressure transducer that measures the
difference between the patient circuit pressure and PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure. DP is
autozeroed every minute for the first 10 minutes of ventilator operation and then hourly. DP is
located on the Pressure Transducer PCB and is easily identified by noting that both port 1 and port 2
have tubing connected.
DP Autozero Solenoid Valve (SOL6). A +6 V, three way solenoid valve energized once a minute
for the first ten minutes and then hourly to autozero pressure transducer DP. SOL6 is supplied with
+12 V for rapid actuation.
BUV High Pressure Limit Switch (PS4). A differential pressure switch that limits pressure in the
patient circuit to 30 cmH2O above PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure during a Back Up Ventilator
(BUV) condition. PS4 is not monitored during normal operation.

2.2.7.2 System Operation (Figure 2-16)


The PEEP/CPAP solenoid valve SOL7 supplies 10 psig to REG5. An operator adjusted pressure
from Reg5 drives adjustable restrictor R3 and the jet venturi creating PEEP/CPAP proportional
pressure. The proportional pressure passes through the R4 resistor and air capacitor (R4&AC)
pressure damping network. A de-energized SOL4 passes the PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure
to the exhalation valve. Because the exhalation valve has a area ratio of approximately 1:1.4,
PEEP in the patient circuit is approximately 1.4 times PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure.
PEEP/CPAP pressure transducer P1 monitors the difference between PEEP/CPAP proportional
pressure and atmospheric pressure. Pressure transducer DP monitors the difference between
patient circuit pressure and PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure. Using the following formula,
the results of these two transducers produces the LED bar graph or analog meter displays.
LED bar graph or analog meter display is created by the sum of P1 and DP:
(DPP2 - DPP1) + (P1P2 - P1P1)
During Extended Self Test (EST), the Area Ratio test measures and records into memory the
current exhalation valve area ratio. This value is then multiplied by P1’s reading.
Digital PEEP/CPAP display is the product of P1 and the exhalation valve area ratio in battery
backed RAM:
(P1P2 - P1P1) x Area Ratio in BBR
Autozeroing of the pressure transducers checks for proper operation and corrects for any
drifting that may occur. The autozero task is performed once a minute for the first ten
minutes of operation, then, once an hour after that. The first autozero occurs when Power On

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 2-27
2 Theory of Operation

Self Test (POST) has successfully completed. The autozero task is performed at the end of
exhalation so it does not interrupt a regular breathing pattern.
P1 is autozeroed by energizing SOL8. In doing so, the PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure
applied to port 2 is vented to atmosphere. Since port 1 is already open to atmosphere, the
CPU can sample the transducer at this time.
DP is autozeroed by energizing SOL6. In doing so, the patient circuit pressure applied to port
2 is vented to PEEP/CPAP proportional pressure. Since port 1 is already at PEEP/CPAP
proportional pressure, the CPU can sample the transducer at this time.

2.3.1 Overview
Control of the ventilator pneumatics is performed by the electrical system, shown in the
ventilator wiring diagram, which is located in the front pocket of this manual.
Power distribution. As the wiring diagram shows, the ventilator is powered by ac power, which is
routed to the power supply via the utility panel. The power supply converts the ac power to dc
voltages necessary to power the digital electronics, the electro-pneumatic components, and the
displays. These dc voltages are distributed to the motherboard, from where it is routed throughout the
ventilator system.
Microprocessor control. At the “heart” of the electrical system is the central processing unit (CPU),
located on the CPU PCB. The various pneumatic and electrical functional units interact as directed
by the CPU and under control of programs stored in memory.
Inputs to the CPU come from the following:
• Sense inputs from the electro-pneumatic components, such as pressure switches and
flow and pressure transducer inputs.
• Operator keyboard inputs.
Using this information, the CPU makes decisions regarding flow, pressure, and volume of air and
oxygen to be delivered to the patient. It controls these parameters by outputting data to such electro-
pneumatic components as the solenoid valves and the proportional solenoid valves. In addition, the
CPU interacts with the operator by displaying messages and other data, and by sounding the alarm.
Multibus. The CPU and the other ventilator logic interact using the system data, address, and control
buses (the Multibus), located on the motherboard. The address bus is a 20-bit bus that the CPU uses
to select a memory location or I/O device for data transfer. Data that is transferred between the CPU
and a memory location or I/O device is passed over the 8-bit bi-directional data bus. The direction of
data transfer (input or output with reference to the CPU) is specified by various control signals that
originate in the CPU and are distributed to memory and device control logic via the control bus. The
memory and device control logic in turn sends various control signals back to the CPU to verify
completion. Examples of these control signals are interrupt request (IRQ), memory write command
(MWTC), processor clock (CLK), and Multibus acknowledge (MBXACK).
Display and keyboard interface. The CPU does not interface directly with the ventilator keyboard,
displays, and pneumatics; instead, it interfaces with control logic for those devices. Data to be
displayed is sent to the DCI-display controller PCB (in 80188-based units) or the display controller
PCB (in 8088-based units) via the Multibus. That PCB sends the data to the displays, located on the
front panel display PCB.
The keyboard interfaces with the CPU by sending it an interrupt request when a key is pressed. In
response, the CPU reads a buffer in the keyboard logic to determine which key was pressed.
Pneumatic interface. Analog sense data coming from the pneumatics is sent via the motherboard
PCB to the interface PCB, where it is conditioned. This conditioned analog data is in turn sent to the
conversion PCB, where it is converted into digital signals usable by the CPU. Similarly, digital
control signals for the pneumatics are passed from the CPU to the conversion PCB, where they are
converted into analog signals. These analog signals are conditioned and multiplexed on the interface
PCB, then the output is sent to the pneumatics via the motherboard PCB.

2.3.2 The ac Power Distribution: Utility Panel
The utility panel distributes ac power to the dc power supplies and other ventilator
components (Figure 2-18). The utility panel includes the on/off power switch, power relay,
circuit breaker, RFI line filter, surge-suppression varistor, the elapsed time meter (ETM), and
the internal line voltage filter (surge suppressor) (in later-model 220/240 V units). The
batteries, discussed in Section 2.3.3, also are part of the utility panel. The ac power switch
applies current to the power relay coil, which closes the relay contacts, applying power to the
circuit breaker, RFI line filter, varistor, ETM, and humidifier. The ac power is then distributed
to the cooling fan, dc power supplies, and the exhalation compartment.
The compressor is supplied with ac directly from the utility panel terminal block. The
compressor compartment includes its own circuit breaker and line filter for the ac. The
compressor motor is energized only if the compressor-ETM start relay in the compressor
compartment is energized. This relay is hard-wired to pressure switch PS2 in the wall gas
supply line. If PS2 drops out, the compressor-ETM relay closes and ac is applied to the
compressor motor.

2.3.3 The dc Power Supply and Distribution: Power Supplies and Batteries
The dc power for continuous ventilator operation is provided by a power supply
(Figure 2-19). The power supply is made up of three separate supplies (+5, +12, and ±15 V), a
power fail module to detect low ac, and an isolation transformer to step the ac voltage to the
PFM (for 220/240 V EMI power supply). Additionally, batteries provide dc power to protect
ventilator data and to activate the audio alarm if power is lost. Battery power distribution is
shown in Figure 2-19.
In addition, a +5 V to +12 V converter on the DCI-display controller or memory PCB provides
voltages for RS-232 transmission. A voltage converter on the front panel display PCB also
converts +5 V to +50 V, 1.7 V ac, and 5.6 V ac to power the vacuum fluorescent displays. Two
+15 V to +10 V converters on the conversion PCB and the pressure transducer PCB provide
voltages for the pressure and temperature transducers.
Figure 2-20 through Figure 2-23 show how +5 V, +10 V, +12 V, and ±15 V are distributed to the
ventilator.

2.3.3.1 +5 V, +12 V, and ±15 V Supplies


Each power supply module includes circuits for remote sensing to compensate for voltage
losses in the dc supply harness and fluctuations in PCB loads. Other built-in circuits include
over-voltage protection (crowbar circuits), and short circuit and overload protection.

2.3.3.2 Power Fail Module


The power fail module detects the loss of ac input power to the ventilator. This loss or
removal of ac power may be due to a momentary power interruption, turning off power at
the utility panel, or to a complete, long term loss of ac power at the source. When ac power is
lost, the power fail module causes an interrupt to the CPU, starting a power down software
sequence. For further information on the operation of the ventilator during a power fail
condition, see Section 2.4.3.

2.3.3.3 Isolation Transformer


The isolation transformer is used on 220 V and 240 V EMI power supplies. The isolation
transformer steps the ac voltage going to the power fail module from 220 V and 240 V
to 115 V.

2.3.3.4 Batteries
Two 2 V lead-acid batteries in the utility panel protect RAM contents when power is removed
from the ventilator. These batteries also permit the alarm to sound when power is lost. The
batteries do not provide power to operate the ventilator in the event of a power failure.
Figure 2-24 shows battery power distribution.

2.3.4 CPU, Memory, and Associated Circuits: MegaCPU PCB or


80188 CPU PCB
The megaCPU PCB or 80188 CPU PCB (Figure 2-25) contains the microprocessor, most of the
ventilator memory, including software storage, and much of the ventilator control circuitry.
The megaCPU PCB is used in current 7200 Series Ventilators. The 80188 version of the CPU
PCB is used in intermediate 7200 Series Ventilators. These ventilators use the Intel 80188
Microprocessor. The two PCBs differ primarily in that the megaCPU PCB contains more
memory, which is necessary when running certain ventilator operations.
The PCB makes use of a “kernel” concept for test purposes. The CPU, memory, and the
minimum additional logic the CPU requires for operation are structured into this kernel.
Unidirectional bus drivers permit the kernel to be isolated from the rest of the PCB. When the
kernel is operational and isolated from the rest of the system, it can run POST and report
results to the error code LEDs.
The functional units of the megaCPU PCB or 80188 CPU PCB (called the “CPU PCB” for
short) are described briefly below.
Multibus interface. Buffers Multibus address, data, and control signals. The BUSY/ signal is tied
low to indicate to the bus that the CPU PCB is always the bus master.
Local bus interface and decode logic. Controls the passage of data, address, and control signals
between the CPU and memory or I/O devices on the CPU PCB. It also produces select signals for
devices on the CPU PCB. The local bus interface and decoder includes latches for addresses and
LED data, one data transceiver, one control buffer, and various decoding gates.
Eight LEDs. Display POST error information.
Kernel EPROM (64 KB). Contains instructions for POST and for initialization of the
microprocessor’s integral functions.
Non-maskable interrupt (NMI) circuit. Signals the CPU when either a bus time-out (BTO) has
occurred (an accessed address is not responding) or ac power is lost (PWRFAIL). The power failure
is sensed by the power supply’s power fail module. The PWRFAIL signal is latched in the non-
maskable interrupt (NMI) generator.
Intel 80188 Microprocessor (CPU). The ventilator’s central processing unit. This micro- processor
chip contains internal timers, a clock generator, memory and device decode logic, and an interrupt
controller. One of the internal timers is used for the bus time-out function. Another functions as the
20 ms system clock used by the software. Attached to the 80188 Microprocessor is a 20 MHz crystal,
whose output is divided by two for internal timing and to supply a 10 MHz clock output. The10 MHz
clock signal provides the basis for the two Multibus bus clock signals, BCLK and CCLK. The
microprocessor. outputs memory and peripheral select signals, MCS0/, MCS2/, UCS/, PCS0/, and
PCS3/ through PCS6/.Interrupt controlling circuitry within the microprocessor chip handles
interrupts according to the priorities programmed.
RAM (128 KB). CMOS static RAM devices powered by the +5 V supply (or batteries when power
is lost). Because CMOS RAM consumes little power, a battery can preserve this data for long periods
should power be lost. To safeguard data during power on and off, RAM cannot be accessed while
supply voltages are stabilizing (INIT/ active).
System-shared EPROM (512 KB). Stores ventilator systems and applications programs.
Memory decode logic. Selectively enables portions of system-shared EPROM and RAM.
5 MHz clock. Divides the 10MHz clock output by the CPU to produce LCLK.
Local bus expansion interface. Permits interface with an external device such as the System
Performance Service Tester (SPST), a Puritan Bennett proprietary tester. The interface includes
address and control buffer and a data transceiver.
Ready generator. Provides the CPU with an acknowledge signal from an addressed memory or I/O
device.

Digital I/O interface. Provides I/O ports for transmitting data between the CPU and the conversion
PCB.
Watchdog timer. Strobed by the software periodically to prevent its timing out. When the timer
does time out, indicating a software or hardware problem, the system is reset.

2.3.5 CPU and Associated Circuits: 8088 CPU PCB


The 8088 CPU PCB (Figure 2-26) contains the microprocessor, some memory, I/O ports,
interrupt and other associated control circuitry, and circuitry to interface the ventilator to
external test equipment. The 8088 version of the CPU PCB is used in earlier 7200
Series Ventilators. These ventilators use the Intel 8088 Microprocessor.
The CPU PCB makes use of a “kernel” concept for test purposes. The CPU, memory, I/O ports,
and the minimum additional logic the CPU requires for operation are structured into this
kernel. Unidirectional bus drivers permit the kernel to be isolated from the rest of the PCB.
When the kernel is operational and isolated from the rest of the system, it can run POST and
report results to the error code LEDs.
The functional units of the 8088 CPU PCB are described briefly below.
Multibus interface. Buffers Multibus address, data, and control signals. Performs bus arbitration
functions for the Multibus. Because there may be more than one PCB requiring access to the
Multibus, the Multibus interface logic resolves priority between bus masters.
Local bus interface and decode logic. Controls the passage of data, address, and control signals
between the CPU and memory or I/O devices on the CPU PCB.
EPROM-I/O. Stores POST instructions and contains I/O ports to communicate self-test data.
Three LEDs. Display POST error information.
Ready generator. Provides the CPU with an acknowledge signal from an addressed memory or I/O
device.
Bus controller. Produces memory and I/O control signals by decoding status signals S0/ through S2/
from the CPU. Among the signals generated are various read and write commands, as well as the
address latch enable (ALE) signal.
Intel 8088 Microprocessor (CPU). The ventilator’s central processing unit. This micro- processor
chip receives or transmits 8-bit data over multiplexed data/address lines KADR00 through KADR07.
The CPU addresses up to one million bytes of memory over KADR00 through KADR07 and 12
additional address lines KADR08 through KADR13. The CPU controls operation of the ventilator
via the read (RD/) line and status lines S0/ through S2/; these status lines are decoded in the bus
controller and used to generate memory and I/O control signals. Status and other information is input
to the CPU over interrupt request (INTR), non-maskable interrupt (NMI), and I/O acknowledge
(READY) lines.
Clock generator. Generates a master clock which is divided to produce a 5 MHz clock used by
CPU, the bus controller, and the Multibus interface; and a 2.5 MHz clock used by the EPROM-I/O
and the timing section.
Timing section (watchdog timer, bus timer, etc.). Provides system timing function and hardware
operation monitoring. It provides the foreground clock used by the software and the software
watchdog timer function. A bus timer also determines the presence of bus activity.
EPROM (up to 24 KB). Stores POST and other ventilator software.
Digital I/O interface. Provides two Intel 8255 I/O ports for transmitting data between the CPU and
the conversion PCB.
Static RAM (8 KB). Stores ventilator data.
Interrupt controller. Provides the CPU with prioritized interrupt inputs and generates other
interrupt information. Interrupts are caused by peripherals requiring service, by a bus time-out, a
watchdog time-out, or a power failure.
Local bus expansion interface. Drives the local address, data, and control bus during transmission
between the CPU PCB and the System Performance Service Tester (SPST), a Puritan Bennett
proprietary tester.

2.3.6 Memory: Memory PCB (8088-Based Ventilators Only)


The memory PCB (Figure 2-27) provides data storage for the ventilator and permits
communications with the 7202 Display, a printer, or a computer over two RS-232 and RS-422
ports. The memory PCB is used in earlier 7200 Series Ventilators, those ventilators that use an
Intel 8088 Microprocessor.
The functional units of the memory PCB are described briefly below.
Multibus interface. Controls data transfer between the Multibus and the memory PCB internal bus.
System-shared RAM. Temporarily stores data used by the ventilator.
System-shared EPROM. Stores ventilator systems and applications programs.
Battery-backed RAM. A low-power memory device that stores vital data such as ventilator settings
and Extended Self-Test (EST) error codes. Battery-backed RAM consists of low-power CMOS static
RAM devices. Therefore, a battery can preserve this data for long periods should power be lost. A
safeguard prevents battery-backed RAM from being accessed while supply voltages are stabilizing.
Transducer lookup tables (EPROMs). Store data unique to specific oxygen and air flow sensors,
Q1 and Q2. This data is used by the microprocessor to linearize the output of these two sensors.
These two EPROM devices plug into soldered sockets. EPROM U302 contains the lookup table for
Q1, and EPROM U403 contains the lookup table for Q2. See Section 15 for locations of U302 and
U403.
RS-232 and RS-422 drivers and receivers. Buffer data being sent between the ventilator and
communications devices. They convert serial data sent by the SCC from TTL voltage levels of 0 V
to +5 V to RS-232 voltage levels of -3 to -25 V (low) and +3 to +25 V (high), and vice versa. To
supply voltages of this level, RS-232 drivers require inputs of +12 and -12 V, which are supplied by
the +5 V to ±12 V converter.
Serial Communications Controller (SCC). Converts parallel data into a serial data stream for
transmission to such serial devices as printers and intelligent terminals. It converts serial data
received from these devices into 8-bit parallel data that the CPU can use. The SCC has two ports,
each programmable independently of the other. When the DCI communications facility is enabled,
the SCC ports can operate as two RS-232 ports, or one RS-232 and one RS-422 port.
The SCC can be programmed for communications at various baud rates, in synchronous or
asynchronous modes, in various start/stop bit configurations, and with various error-correcting
schemes. The configuration switches on the DCI provide programming inputs to the SCC. (See
Figure 2-28 for details of these operator-selected parameters.)
Real-time clock. Keeps track of the time of day and date for use in printed reports and error code
time/date stamps.
Configuration switches. Three DIP switches that permit the user to configure communications
ports. The settings for these switches are shown in Figure 3-3.
Acknowledge generator. Produces a signal to inform the CPU that a data transfer on the memory
PCB was completed successfully.
Option PAL. Contains option data.
Memory and I/O select logic. Selectively enables portions of memory or I/O devices on the
memory PCB. It consists of a programmed array logic (PAL) devices, other decoding logic, and
buffers.
Clock generator and I/O timing section. Produces clock signals for use on the memory PCB and in
the rest of the ventilator.

2.3.7 DCI-Display Controller PCB (Used in 80188-Based Units Only)


The DCI-display controller PCB (Figure 2-28) permits communication with the 7202 Display,
a printer, or a computer over four RS-232 ports. It also interfaces the displays and keyboard
with the CPU PCB, and it provides a path for lamp, analog meter, and alarm control signals
traveling between the interface PCB and the front panel. The DCI-display controller PCB also
includes a power sequencer to detect the decay of the +5 V power supply output. The
DCI-display controller PCB is used in current 7200 Series Ventilators, those ventilators that
use an Intel 80188 Microprocessor.
The functional units of the DCI-display controller PCB are described briefly below. A
description of how various PCBs interact during keyboard and display operations is given in
Section 2.4.2.
Multibus interface. Buffers address, data, and control signals being transferred between the
Multibus and the keyboard/display system. It also generates enabling signals for devices on the PCB
and an acknowledge signal to the CPU.
Power sequencer. Generates the INIT/ signal to reset the ventilator electronics to a known state
under these conditions. It remains active until the system is turned on or ac power recovers. See
Section 2.4.3 for a complete discussion of ventilator initialization.
During a normal power down, an accidental power loss, or any other time +5 V power supply output
falls below +4.775 V or exceeds +5.225 V.
After a watchdog timeout
Real-time clock. Keeps track of the time of day and date for use in printed reports and error code
time/date stamps.
Option PAL. Contains option data.
Keyboard interface and drivers. Read keyboard input data by scanning the keyboard matrix for
pressed keys. When a key is pressed, a keyswitch is closed, allowing current to flow through the
activated row to the column where the closed keyswitch is located. The state of each of the eight
columns in the matrix is sent to the DCI-display controller PCB over keyboard return lines RL0
through RL7. The interface, which uses the Intel 8279-5 Programmable Keyboard/Display Interface,
includes a debounce circuit, which waits and rechecks a key for closure.
Transducer lookup tables (EPROMs). Store data unique to specific oxygen, air and exhalation
flow sensors, Q1, Q2, and Q3. This data is used by the microprocessor to linearize the output of these
three sensors. These three EPROM devices plug into soldered sockets. EPROM U406 contains the
lookup table for Q1, EPROM U504 contains the lookup table for Q2, and EPROM U607 contains the
lookup table for Q3.
Serial Communications Controllers (SCCs). Convert parallel data into a serial data stream for
transmission to such serial devices as printers and intelligent terminals. The SCC converts serial data
received from these devices into 8-bit parallel data that the CPU can use. The SCCs have a total of
four RS-232 ports. The SCC can be programmed for communications at various baud rates, in
synchronous or asynchronous modes, in various start/stop bit configurations, and with various
error-correcting schemes. The configuration switches on the DCI provide programming inputs to the
SCC. (See Figure 3-3 for details of these operator-selected parameters.)
Display data latches and buffers. Limit the transfer of data between RAM and the front panel to
periods of display refreshing.
RS-232 drivers and receivers. Buffer data being sent between the ventilator and communications
devices. They convert serial data from the SCCs from TTL voltage levels of 0 V to RS-232 voltage
levels of -3 to -25 V (low) and +3 to +25 V (high), and vice versa.
Fan alarm circuit. Produces a pulse that can be read by CPU to determine whether fan is revolving
at adequate speed (EMI units only).
Utility panel buffer. Permits reading of fan alarm pulse and other signals.

The data for each character, single LED indicator, or alarm summary lamp/LED is accessible at a
fixed RAM address.
Address selector. Places either a memory address (A0 through A5) or a refresh address (RA0
through RA5) on the display RAM address lines, based on the state of RAMSEL/.
Refresh address circuits. Repeatedly furnishes refresh addresses to the lowest six bits of a memory
address, resulting in the continuous re-outputting of display data already on display. Display
refreshing takes place when the CPU is not addressing RAM either to write new data to it or to read
data for display.
Timing circuit. Generates clock signals used by the keyboard and display system by dividing the 10
MHz clock input. The timing circuit also generates addresses used in display refreshing.
Configuration switches (S1, S2, and S3) and buffer. Three DIP switches that permit the user to
configure communications ports. The settings for these switches are shown in Figure 3-3.
Memory and I/O select logic. Selectively enables portions of memory or I/O devices on the

successfully on the DCI-display controller PCB.

2.3.8 Display Controller PCB (Used in 8088-Based Units Only)


The display controller PCB (Figure 2-29) provides direct CPU control of display and keyboard
operations. It contains RAMs to store display data, a keyboard controller LSI device, other
display and keyboard control circuitry, and a power sequencer to detect the decay of the +5 V
power supply output. In addition, the display controller provides a path for lamp, analog
meter, and alarm control signals between the interface PCB and the front panel display. The
display controller PCB is used in earlier 7200 Series Ventilators, those ventilators that use an
Intel 8088 Microprocessor.
The functional units of the display controller PCB are described briefly below. A description

Power sequencer. Generates the INIT/ signal to reset the ventilator electronics to a known state
under these conditions. It remains active until the system is turned on or ac power recovers.
• During a normal power down, an accidental power loss, or any other time +5 V power
supply output falls below +4.775 V or exceeds +5.225 V.
• After a watchdog timeout (ALARM/ active)
A 25 ms timer within the power sequencer is used in conjunction with the watchdog timer on the
CPU PCB. If the watchdog timer is still timed out after 25 ms, a watchdog timeout is declared. See
Section 2.4.3 for a complete discussion of ventilator initialization.
Fan alarm circuit and buffer. Produces a pulse that can be read by CPU to determine whether fan
is revolving at adequate speed. Permits reading of that pulse (EMI units only).
Display data latches. Limit the transfer of data between RAM and the front panel to periods of
display refreshing.
Refresh address selector. Places either a memory address (A0 through A5) or a refresh address
(RA0 through RA5) on the display RAM address lines, based on the state of DISPSEL/.

2.3.9 Keyboard, Displays, and Drivers: Front Panel Display PCB


The front panel display PCB (Figure 2-30 through Figure 2-32) includes all the ventilator’s
integral display devices, such as numeric and alphanumeric vacuum fluorescent display
(VFD) panels, LED indicators, and possibly incandescent lamps. Related circuits, such as
device drivers, character generators to produce 7- and 14-segment character representations
from ASCII-coded or binary-coded decimal (BCD) characters, refresh address decoding, and a
voltage converter for the VFDs also reside on this PCB. A membrane-switch keyboard, an
analog meter (except in the Enhanced-Plus console), and an audio alarm are connected to the
front panel display PCB; these signals feed through the front panel display PCB. The keyboard
and display control logic resides on the DCI-display controller PCB or the display controller
PCB.
There are three styles of the front panel display PCB. One for the original (basic) keyboard,
one for an intermediate (enhanced) keyboard, and one for a later (Enhanced-Plus) keyboard.
The difference between the keyboards is the presence of the <AIRWAY PRESSURE> and
<EXHALED TIDAL VOLUME> keys on the basic keyboard. The Enhanced-Plus keyboard does
not have an analog gauge, like the basic and enhanced keyboards. Instead, the Enhanced-Plus
console has a digital dual-bar airway pressure display.
Changes in the appearance of two numbers, six and nine, displayed on the enhanced
keyboard are:

This variation occurred as a result of a change in equipment suppliers.

Theory of Operation B
The functional units of the front panel display PCB are described briefly below. A description
of how various PCBs interact during keyboard and display operations is given in
Section 2.4.2.
Voltage converter. Converts +5 V from the power supply into voltage to drive the VFDs. The
voltage converter is necessary, because the VFDs require voltages not available from the ventilator
power supply. The voltage converter supplies the following voltages: +50 V dc, 1.7 V ac, and 5.6 V
ac.
Character generator PROM. Generates the 14-segment character representation for the
20-character (alphanumeric) display from output signals AN0 through AN6 and ANDP. This
character generation is accomplished in two parts. During the display blanking period (BREFCLK
active), half of the segments are generated. This segment and decimal point data is latched into a
register at the end of the blanking period. After the blanking period, the remaining segments are
generated and latched.
Timer. An astable mulitvibrator, which produces a pulse that controls the flashing of the LED
indicators and lamps.
Scan decoder. Sequentially asserts each of eight keyswitch scan lines KS0 through KS7 based on the
three-bit count supplied by the keyboard interface device on the DCI-display controller or display
controller PCB. Each output line corresponds to a row on the keyboard matrix.
Segment drivers. Amplify any of the 14 signals necessary to form the segmented 20-character
display.
Grid drivers. Enable the writing of data to a character position (one of grid signals G1 through G22,
or G1 through G32) after the appropriate segment signals (furnished by the 7-segment
decoder-driver or character generator PROM) are applied.
Seven-segment decoder-driver. Generates the 7-segment representation of alphanumeric display
data. This circuit uses the four-bit BCD and decimal point data (NUM0 through NUM3 and
NUMDP) to create each digit.
LED indicator circuits (decoder, latches, LED indicators). In the enhanced and Enhanced-Plus
front panel display PCB, two discrete LEDs comprise a single LED indicator (for example,
APNEA). In the basic front panel display PCB, one discrete LED comprises an LED indicator. The
LEDs remain lit until the LED data changes or until the appropriate data latch is disabled.
Alarm summary display circuits (latches, drivers, LEDs or lamps). In the enhanced and
Enhanced-Plus front panel display PCB, five discrete LEDs comprise an alarm summary indicator.
In the basic front panel display PCB, the alarm summary indicators are incandescent lamps. The
LEDs or lamps remain lit until the data changes or the appropriate data latch is disabled.
Keyboard. Provides pressure-sensitive membrane switches for data entry. The scan decoder
sequentially asserts each of eight keyswitch scan lines KS0 through KS7, each line corresponding to
a row on the keyboard matrix. When a key is pressed, a keyswitch is closed, allowing current to flow
through the activated row to the column where the closed keyswitch is located. The states of the
eight columns in the matrix are sent to the DCI-display controller or display-controller PCB over
keyboard return lines RL0 through RL7.

2.3.10 A/D and D/A Converter: Conversion PCB
The conversion PCB (Figure 2-33) performs all digital-to-analog (D/A) and analog-to-digital
(A/D) conversion needed for ventilator operation. These converted signals are used to control
and monitor analog devices. In addition, the conversion PCB controls ventilator alarm
operation and back-up ventilator (BUV) operation. It also provides optical isolation for digital
input and output signals to and from such devices as pressure switches and solenoids.
The conversion PCB connects directly to the system Multibus and the I/O bus. High-priority,
non-interruptible information traverses the I/O bus, while other information traverses
the Multibus.
The functional units of the conversion PCB are described briefly below.
Multibus interface and address decoding section. Buffers address, data, and control signals being
transferred between the Multibus and the conversion PCB. It also generates enabling signals for
devices on the PCB.
Alarm control. Stores data used to control the audio alarm. Each of four sources can independently
activate the audio alarm upon detecting an alarm condition. The four sources are: loss of power,
apnea ventilation, BUV, and electronics compartment cooling fan (EMI only).
BUV control circuit. Permits the CPU to set and reset BUV by writing to memory addresses. The
SET/ and RESET/ signals generated by the BUV control circuit are sent to the BUV circuit on the
interface PCB. This circuit in turn generates signals to directly control the pneumatics during BUV.
See Section 2.4.3 for a complete description of BUV operation.
A/D converter and buffer. Convert analog signals to digital signals for use by the CPU. Analog
signals come from flow sensors Q1, Q2, and Q3; temperature sensors T1, T2, and T3; and pressure
transducers DP, P1, and P2. These signals pass through the interface PCB, where they are
multiplexed. The converter also generates channel select information, which is used by the
multiplexers on the interface PCB.
The A/D converter circuits include a precision instrumentation amplifier, a sample-and-hold system,
an A/D converter device, and timing and interrupt circuitry.
D/A converters (DACs 0, 1, and 3). Convert digital signals to analog signals to control the
proportional solenoid valves and the analog meter. These three 12-bit DACs, DAC0, DAC1, and
DAC3, generate 0 to 20 mA analog signals. These analog outputs represent oxygen flow (DAC0), air
flow (DAC1), and meter/test data (DAC3). For each conversion, twelve bits of input data (DAC0
through DACB) are transferred to each DAC from I/O ports on the CPU PCB.
When the ventilator is powered up, the microprocessor clears the data lines, then sets the control
lines to logic one, and resets the back-up system, driving the DACs to zero.
D/A converters (DACs 4 and 5). Convert digital signals to analog signals to control the shapes of
the pressure and flow waveforms present at the analog output connector on the utility panel. These
two DACs generate 0 to 10 V analog signals. These analog outputs represent flow waveform
(DAC4) and pressure waveform (DAC5). For each conversion, twelve bits of input data (DAC0
through DACB) are transferred to each DAC from the CPU PCB.
Input drivers/optical isolators. Buffers and optically isolates digital inputs from pressure switches
PS1, PS2, and PS3, as well as the BUV status. These inputs come from the interface PCB. Where the
transmitting and receiving circuits use different power supplies, signals are optically isolated.

CON-PCB

Figure 2-33. Conversion PCB Block Diagram

2-58 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Theory of Operation 2
Output drivers/optical isolators. Buffers and optically isolates digital outputs to the solenoids, the
battery charger, and the compressor. Other signals buffered by the digital output interface include
INIT, RESET/, SET/, NURSE’S CALL, ALARM, and SW VBATT. These buffered signals are
output to the interface PCB. Where the transmitting and receiving circuits use different power
supplies, signals are optically isolated. Optical isolation prevents noise present on the pneumatics’
ground from interfering with the analog and digital electronics.
To ensure a clean transition between powerup and power-down, INIT/ is used to disable the digital
output’s optical isolators. To ensure a clean transition from power-down to powerup, the inputs to the
optical isolator’s drivers are inhibited by the RESET/ signal from the BUV control. This allows the
CPU time for self-checks and for initializing the I/O bus.

2.3.11 Interface PCB


The interface PCB (Figure 2-34) interconnects and conditions electronic signals transmitted
between the conversion PCB, the pneumatic components, the utility panel components, and
the DCI-display controller PCB or display controller PCB. The interface PCB also provides
battery charging and back-up ventilator (BUV) circuitry. The BUV circuitry permits the
ventilation of a patient if the CPU’s reliability is suspect.
The functional units of the interface PCB are described briefly below.
Flow sensor signal conditioning. Amplifies and filters raw inputs from flow sensors Q1, Q2, and
Q3. One of these conditioned outputs is a feedback signal for adjusting the flow sensor raw signals.
Another conditioned output is fed to a multiplexer in the conversion PCB input multiplexer.
Back-up ventilator (BUV). Provides fixed mode ventilation in the event of microprocessor failure.
Because the microprocessor cannot reliably be expected to control the pneumatics in such a case,
alternate non-CPU controlled circuitry is provided on the interface PCB to control some pneumatic
components.
The BUV can be initiated by the detection of a hardware or software problem (INIT/ active) or by a
SET/ command from the CPU. When the INIT/signal is applied to the BUV on the interface PCB, a
10-second timer is started. During this 10-second interval, the CPU executes POST. If POST does
not pass, the BUV takes control of the ventilator.
After BUV is initialized, a timer internal to the BUV outputs a signal (CLK), which controls the time
of the exhalation and inspiration periods (2/3 and 1/3). The BUV outputs a BUV signal, which
controls pneumatic components involved in BUV. If patient pressure is greater than 30 cmH2O above
PEEP, BUV outputs HIP.
Some of the pneumatic components energized during BUV include:
• Cross-over solenoid SOL3, energized when oxygen pressure switch PS1 is actuated.
• Exhalation pilot control solenoid SOL4, energized when inspiration is required and
patient pressure is less than 30 cmH2O above PEEP.
• Safety valve solenoid SOL5 and PEEP/CPAP solenoid SOL7, energized when PS1, PS2, or
PS3 is actuated.
The BUV supplies the analog multiplexer signals to determine the analog input to PSOL1 and
PSOL2. The selection of analog inputs is based on such variables as whether or not BUV is active
(state of BUV), whether inspiration or expiration is required (state of CLK), whether patient pressure
is less or more than HIP, and whether any of pressure switches PS1 through PS3 is actuated.
During BUV operation, the BACK UP VENTILATOR indicator on the front panel display is lit and
the alarm is sounded. The BUV LAMP signal (IDI7) is also output to the conversion PCB.
For a system-level operational description of BUV, refer to Section 2.4.3.5.
Motor compressor control circuit. Outputs the MC signal to energize a relay in the compressor
compartment; this relay turns on the compressor motor. The relay is energized when PS2 senses low
wall air pressure.

2 Theory of Operation

Solenoid interface. Conditions solenoid energizing signals from the conversion PCB. The solenoid
interface additionally permits solenoids to be operated independently of microprocessor control
during BUV, as follows:
• Cross-over solenoid SOL3 is energized when oxygen pressure switch PS1 is actuated and BUV is
active, or via computer control (IDO5).
• Exhalation pilot control solenoid SOL4 is energized during inspiration (CLK active), patient
pressure is less than 30 cmH2O above PEEP (HIP inactive), and BUV is active, or via computer
control (IDO6).
• Safety valve solenoid SOL5 and PEEP/CPAP solenoid SOL7 are energized when one of pressure
switches PS1, PS2, or PS3 is actuated and BUV is active, or via computer control (IDO7).
• Compressor unloading solenoid SOL9 is energized at compressor startup when BUV is active or
via computer control (IDO10).
Pressure switch interface. Conditions the pressure switch signals so that if a switch is energized
(closed contacts), PSx will be a 20 mA signal; and if the switch is de-energized (open contacts), PSx
will be a 0 mA signal.
Nurse call relay. Permits the NURSE’S CALL signal to be selectively transmitted to the utility
panel analog output connector. This analog output connector can be connected to an external device
and the NURSE’S CALL signal can be used to drive a lamp or alarm on that device. The NURSE’S
CALL signal is active (relay closed) when input signal IDO11 from the conversion PCB is active,
indicating an alarm condition, or during BUV (BUV signal active).
Proportional solenoid (PSOL) interface. Provides drive current ranging between 10 and 630 mA at
+10 V for PSOL1 and PSOL2. To generate these PSOL signals, the interface PCB conditions the 0 to
20 mA DAC outputs, DAC0 and DAC1. Signals DAC0 and DAC1 are then applied to a multiplexer,
which selects either the conversion PCB outputs or fixed oxygen and air values used by BUV.
The outputs of DAC0 and DAC1 are deselected when BUV is inactive (BUV signal inactive).
During BUV, fixed oxygen and air values are selected when inspiration is required (CLK active),
when patient pressure is less than 30 cmH2O above PEEP proportional pressure (HIP inactive),
provided one of pressure switches PS1, PS2, or PS3 is actuated.
Display controller interface. Interconnects and conditions the following signals going to the
DCI-display controller or display controller PCB. These signals include:
• BUV LAMP, which drives the front panel BACK UP VENTILATOR indicator when BUV is
active (BUV signal active).
• SAFETY VALVE OPEN LAMP, a +12 V, 20 mA drive signal generated any time the safety
valve, controlled by SOL5, is open (IDO7 active).
• METER, the DAC3 output. The output of DAC3 is also returned to the conversion PCB via the
multiplexer, allowing the testing of D/A conversion.
Battery charging circuit. Charges the lead-acid back-up batteries. The two 2 V batteries, located in
the utility panel, are constantly being charged while power is applied to the ventilator.
The CPU can disconnect the charging circuit from the batteries, for the purpose of checking battery
voltage, by activating the battery test output of the conversion PCB, IDO12. The battery voltage can
be measured through the BATTERY input of the multiplexer.

Theory of Operation B
Under normal operating conditions, a steering circuit on the motherboard allows the charging circuit
to charge the batteries, but prevents the charging circuit from becoming a load to the batteries when
power is lost or when the ventilator is in storage. The steering circuit drives the battery back-up line,
VBATT, providing power to battery-backed RAM and to the audio alarm during a power failure.
Figure 2-23 shows battery power distribution.
Analog output connector (FLOW/PRESSURE) interface. Converts the output of DACs 4 and 5,
both of which range from 0 to 20 mA signals, to 0 to 10 V external analog output connector signals,
FLOW and PRESSURE. These signals are supplied to an external device through the utility panel
analog output connector.
A/D converter (A/DC) multiplexer. Supplies the conversion PCB with a pair of analog inputs
(+IN and -IN) for later conversion into their digital equivalents. Signal selections are made from
various analog signals, based on four channel enable signals (CE0/ through CE4/) supplied to the
interface PCB by the conversion PCB. The selection of an analog input is made from flow sensor
outputs (Q1, Q2, and Q3); temperature sensor outputs (T1, T2, and T3); pressure transducer outputs
(DP, P1, and P2); battery voltage (BATTERY); and the +10 V output from the conversion PCB. The
TEST signal is the output of DAC3 on the conversion PCB used in verifying that the A/D converter
is functioning properly.

2.3.12 Pulse Oximetry PCB Assembly


The optional pulse oximetry PCB assembly, shown in Figure 2-35, equips the ventilator to
measure arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate. Oxygen saturation refers to the amount of
oxygen carried by hemoglobin. Expressed as a percent, oxygen saturation is the amount of
oxygen carried compared to total capacity. A ventilator with Pulse Oximetry displays the
oxygen saturation and pulse rate on the 20-character display. A separate speaker, which is part
of the pulse oximetry PCB assembly, beeps at the same rate as the pulse; the pitch of the beeps
varies as oxygen saturation varies. The speaker also sounds when the patient’s oxygen
saturation or pulse rate falls outside of operator-selected ranges.
The pulse oximetry PCB assembly consists of two PCBs: the Multibus PCB and the smaller
Biox PCB, which is attached to the Multibus PCB. The Biox PCB performs the actual pulse
oximetry functions, while the Multibus PCB interfaces the pulse oximetry hardware to the
ventilator via the Multibus.

2.3.12.1 General Principle of Operation


Pulse Oximetry measures the absorption of selected wavelengths of light passed through
living tissue. It is based on the principle that oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2) and reduced
hemoglobin (Hb) absorb light at different levels. As a result of this known relationship, the
relative quantities of HbO2 and Hb can be calculated. Light transmitted through a tissue site
is partially absorbed by each constituent (Figure 2-36). For a given tissue location, the
absorption is constant except for the absorption from the added blood volume due
to arterial pulsation.

2.3.12.2 Operation of the Sensor


To monitor arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate, the Pulse Oximetry feature employs a
photosensitive sensor or probe. This sensor is positioned on the patient to detect the
remaining light that the body has not absorbed. The probe consists of two LEDs and a
photodetector. Circuitry on the Biox PCB drives the LEDs in the sensor via the Multibus PCB.
After the light passes through the tissue, the photodetector senses the two light beams. Each
of the two LEDs emits a different wavelength of light. The tissue absorbs some of the light;
the remainder passes through the tissues and is sensed by the photodetector. The
photodetector then sends the pulse oximetry PCB assembly electrical signals corresponding
to the light sensed. These absorption measurements allow saturation and pulse rate to be
calculated.

2.3.12.3 How Pulse Oximetry Is Implemented in the 7200 Series Ventilator


Following are some specifics of Pulse Oximetry’s implementation in the 7200
Series Ventilator:
• The Serial Communications Controller on the Multibus PCB handles transfer of digital
data between the Multibus and Biox PCBs.
• A jumper connector on the Multibus PCB permits selection of 50 or 60 Hz electrical power
to optimize ambient light rejection.
• A speaker connects directly to the Multibus PCB and is part of that PCB. The speaker
amplifier is on the Multibus PCB. Loudness is operator-controlled and established during
option 90 parameter selection. The operator can choose to mute the speaker.
• Under some conditions, the Biox PCB may issue a SHUTDOWN signal to the Multibus
PCB; the SHUTDOWN signal prompts the ventilator to remove power from the Biox PCB.

2.4.1 Breath Delivery


The breath delivery discussion describes how the ventilator delivers breaths during
inspiration, exhalation, and when PEEP/CPAP is active.

2.4.1.1 Inspiration
This discussion addresses inspiration during both mandatory and spontaneous breaths with a
description of the differences between mandatory and spontaneous breath, the gas supply,
the flow control, and the nebulizer operation.
Differences between mandatory and spontaneous breaths. During a mandatory inspiration
(Figure 2-37), a fixed volume of gas is delivered to the patient. Breath delivery may be initiated
when the ventilator senses patient inspiratory effort, when the ventilator’s breath timing dictates, or
when the operator presses the <MANUAL INSPIRATION> key. Provided the Flow-by option is not
active, the ventilator senses patient inspiratory effort based on the operator-selected
<SENSITIVITY> value. When the Flow-by option is in use, inspiration is triggered when the
ventilator senses that the flow to the patient exceeds the operator-selected threshold. The ventilator
terminates the breath when the operator-selected tidal volume is delivered or when patient pressure
exceeds the operator-selected high pressure limit.
During a spontaneous inspiration (Figure 2-38), the pneumatic system operates as it does during
mandatory inspiration, except that the patient always initiates the breath and draws whatever volume
the patient desires. The ventilator delivers gas at a rate sufficient to maintain the airway pressure near
the preselected <PEEP/CPAP> level minus <SENSITIVITY>. For example, if <PEEP/CPAP> is set
to 10 cmH2O and <SENSITIVITY> to 2 cmH2O, the airway pressure is maintained near 8 cmH2O.

The ventilator terminates the spontaneous breath when system pressure, sensed at the proximal
airway, exceeds the baseline pressure by approximately 1 cmH2O. If Flow-by is active, exhalation
begins when the exhaled flow (sensed by Q3) exceeds the delivered flow (sensed by Q1 and Q2) by
2 lpm.

2-68 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
2 Theory of Operation

Gas supply. During inspiration, air for delivery to the patient and to power the PEEP/CPAP and
safety valve systems is provided by external air, if available, or by the compressor. Components in
the wall gas supply or the compressor system sense the gas pressure and direct gas from either source
(refer to descriptions of wall gas supply and compressor operation earlier in this section.) Oxygen
from an external source is regulated and supplied to the ventilator through a pneumatic circuit almost
identical to the wall air supply circuit.
Figure 2-37 and Figure 2-38 show gas being supplied by an external source. Figure 2-39 shows the
pressures and flows involved in the gas supply. In that figure, the compressor is active.
Flow control. Oxygen and air, either from the wall supply or compressor, are now delivered to the
proportional solenoid valves, PSOL1 and PSOL2. The computer samples the gas flow measurements
from Q1/T1 and Q2/T2. Then, based on the operator-selected tidal volume, oxygen percentage,
breath rate, peak flow, waveform, and these flow readings, the CPU adjusts PSOL1 and PSOL2 as
necessary. As a result, the patient receives breaths with these operator-selected parameters. Mixed
gas now flows from the junction of PSOL1 and PSOL2 (Figure 2-40), through the safety valve
assembly, through the main flow bacteria filter, and to the patient system.
Nebulizer operation. The nebulizer system operates during inspiration only. If the operator-selected
nebulization, one of the nebulizer solenoids, SOL1 or SOL2, is energized. If an oxygen percentage
greater than 60 was selected, SOL1 supplies pure oxygen to the nebulizer. If an oxygen percentage of
60 or less was selected, SOL2 supplies air to the nebulizer. Figure 2-41 shows the operation of the
nebulizer. Figure 2-37 shows an inspiration without nebulization active, while Figure 2-38 shows an
inspiration with nebulization and an oxygen percentage of 70.

2.4.1.2 Exhalation
Exhalation (Figure 2-42) begins after the ventilator has delivered the operator-selected
volume of gas, and after the operator-selected plateau period (mandatory breaths) or as
demanded by the patient (spontaneous breaths). In either case, as the patient exhales, the
exhalation pilot control solenoid SOL4, which is de-energized, allows PEEP proportional
pressure from the jet venturi to pilot the exhalation valve open to PEEP. This allows the
exhaled gas to enter the exhalation system through the heated filter.
After being heated, the exhaled gas continues to the exhalation flow and temperature sensors
Q3/T3. Exhaled flow data is used to determine the patient’s exhaled volume. From there, the
exhaled gas is vented from the ventilator. If the ventilator has an internal exhalation valve,
the gas is vented through this opened valve.
Figure 2-43 and Figure 2-44 show gas pressures and flows during exhalation. Figure 2-45
shows the operation of PEEP during exhalation.

2.4.2 I/O Device Operation


The following describes how the ventilator receives input (from keyboard and by monitoring
analog devices) and how the ventilator outputs information to such devices as the displays,
the audio alarm, and the proportional solenoid valves.

2.4.2.1 Keyboard Operation (Figure 2-46)


Keyboard control is accomplished largely by the Intel 8279-5 Programmable Keyboard/
Display Interface, located on the DCI-display controller or the display controller PCB. The
keyboard interface scans the keyboard matrix for pressed keys. A scan counter inside the
interface continuously generates a count, which is output over keyboard scan lines BSL0
through BSL2 through the front panel display PCB to the keyboard. The 3-bit count is
supplied to the scan decoder on the front panel display PCB, which sequentially asserts each
of eight output lines KS0 through KS7. Each output line corresponds to a row on the keyboard
matrix. When a key is pressed, a keyswitch is closed, allowing current to flow through the
activated row to the column where the closed keyswitch is located. The state of each of the
eight columns in the keyboard matrix is buffered and sent to the DCI-display controller PCB
or display controller PCB via the front panel display PCB over keyboard return lines RL0
through RL7.
Signals RL0 through RL7 are buffered and latched in the keyboard interface. The keyboard
interface scans the lines, looking for a keyswitch closure. When a keyswitch closure is found,
a debounce circuit within the keyboard controller waits and rechecks the keyswitch for
closure. If two keys are simultaneously pressed, the 2-key lockout feature of the keyboard
interface prevents either key from being recognized until only one remains pressed.

2-80 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Theory of Operation 2
If the switch remains closed, the column and row addresses of the switch in the keyboard
matrix are transferred into a 1-byte FIFO buffer within the keyboard interface. The presence
of data in the FIFO buffer causes the keyboard interface to generate IRQ to the CPU. The CPU
responds by appropriately setting the control and address lines to the keyboard interface to
read a byte of data over data lines D0 through D7. The CPU then resets IRQ.
The above described procedure is repeated for each pressed key.

8088-15

Figure 2-46. Keyboard Operation

2.4.2.2 20-Character Display Operation (Figure 2-47)


A fixed RAM address is assigned to each character position of the 20-character display. To
initiate display operation, the CPU addresses that RAM location. This address is routed to
RAM via the refresh address selector, which places either a memory address (A0 through A5)
or a refresh address (RA0 through RA5) on the RAM address lines, based on the state
of DISPSEL/.
Seven-bit ASCII and decimal point data (AN0 through AN6 and ANDP, respectively) is output
from RAM and clocked out of the DCI-display controller or display controller PCB via latches.
Latching limits the transfer of data between RAM and the front panel to periods of display
refreshing (REFCLK active and DISPSEL/ inactive).
The ASCII code is furnished to a character generator PROM, located on the front panel
display PCB, where the 14-segment character representation is generated. This character
generation is accomplished in two parts. During the display blanking period (BREFCLK
active), segments h through r are generated. This segment and decimal point data is latched
into a register at the end of the blanking period. After the blanking period, segments a
through g are generated and latched.
Drivers amplify any of the 14 signals necessary to form the segmented 20-character display.
These buffered signals are output to the display.
After the appropriate segment signals for a character have been turned on, the grid signal
corresponding to the character position (one of grid signals G1 through G22) is applied,
causing the character to illuminate.
The process of displaying a character is repeated for each additional character, moving to the
left across the display panel.
When the CPU is not addressing RAM, either to write new data to it or to read data for
display, display refreshing takes place. During display refreshing, the timing circuit repeatedly
furnishes 6-bit refresh addresses (RA0 through RA5) to the refresh address selector. Each
refresh address corresponds to the lowest six bits of a memory address, so the receipt of each
refresh address causes the continuous re-outputting of the data on the display.

2.4.2.3 Numeric Display Operation (Figure 2-48)


A fixed RAM address is assigned to each character position of the numeric display. To initiate
display operation, the CPU addresses that RAM location. This address is routed to RAM via
the refresh address selector, which places either a memory address (A0 through A5) or a
refresh address (RA0 through RA5) on the RAM address lines, based on the state of DISPSEL/.
Four-bit BCD and decimal point data (NUM0 through NUM3 and NUMDP) is output from
RAM and clocked out of the display controller PCB via latches. Latches limit the transfer of
data between RAM and the front panel to periods of display refreshing (REFCLK active and
DISPSEL/ inactive).
The BCD code is furnished to a 7-segment decoder-driver located on the front panel display
PCB. After the appropriate segment signals for a character position (one of grid signals G1
through G22) are applied, the character illuminates. The process of displaying a character is
repeated for each additional character.
When the CPU is not addressing RAM either to write new data to it or to read data for display,
display refreshing takes place. During display refreshing, the timing circuit repeatedly
furnishes 6-bit refresh addresses (RA0 through RA5) to the lowest six bits of a memory
address, so the receipt of each refresh address causes the continuous re-outputting of display
data already on display.

2.4.2.4 LED Indicators Operation (Figure 2-49)
To turn on an LED indicator, LED control bits AN0 through AN1, which are stored in the
20-character display RAM, are gated with a pulse from an astable multivibrator to determine
whether an indicator will be lit, and if so, whether it will flash. In ventilators with the
enhanced console, the LEDs are latched on and remain lit, whereas in ventilators with the
basic console, the LEDs are lit, then are continuously refreshed so they appear to be
continuously lit. Each indicator is associated with an address. An indicator can be lit when its
address is on lines BRA0 through BRA5 and BREFCLK is low.
On the Enhanced-Plus or enhanced console, two LEDs comprise an LED indicator. On the
basic console, one LED comprises an LED indicator.

2.4.2.5 Alarm Summary Display Operation (Figure 2-50)
On the enhanced console, five LEDs comprise an alarm summary display indicator. On the
basic console, the alarm summary display indicators are incandescent lamps.
To turn on an alarm summary display indicator, lamp control bits NUM0 and NUM1, which
are stored in the lamp/numeric display RAM locations, are gated with a pulse from an astable
multivibrator to determine whether a lamp will be lit, and if so, whether it will flash. One
indicator, addressable by refresh address lines BRA0 through BRA5, can be lit at one time. The
indicator remains lit until the current state of the indicator data changes or until the data
latch is disabled.

2.4.2.6 Audio Alarm Operation (Figure 2-51)


The 7200 Series Ventilator incorporates an audio alarm. The alarm may sound with a
continuous tone or may pulsate. For the continuous-tone and earlier pulsating alarms, the
alarm speaker is connected directly to the front panel display PCB. For pulsating alarms in
recent units, the alarm activating signal from the front panel display PCB passes through a
small printed circuit board, the pulsed alarm PCB, to which the speaker is connected.
The alarm volume is controlled by potentiometer R1, which is part of the utility panel
harness. The alarm is activated under control of data stored in latches on the conversion PCB,
or during BUV, it is activated by the EXT ALRM/ signal on the conversion PCB.
Normally, the alarm is powered by the +5 V supply. When power is lost, the audio alarm
operates off the batteries.

2.4.2.7 Analog Meter Operation (Figure 2-52)


In ventilators with an enhanced or basic console, an analog meter on the front panel displays
airway pressure, and in ventilators with the basic console, a choice of exhaled volume. The
data to be displayed is output from the CPU PCB and into the conversion PCB. Here, DAC3
converts this data into its analog equivalent. This data is then routed through the interface
PCB, through the DCI-display controller or display controller PCB, through the front panel
display PCB, and to the analog meter.
In the Enhanced-Plus console, the analog meter is replaced by a dual-scale vertical bar graph
that displays airway pressure.

2.4.2.8 Nurse Call Operation (Figure 2-53)
The ventilator provides a nurse call signal, which can be used when interfacing the ventilator
to an external device. The signal, which is active in almost all cases when the audio alarm is
also active, provides output through the analog output connector on the utility panel. The
ventilator does not supply power to a nurse call device.
The CPU makes a decision to energize the nurse call relay K1 on the interface PCB whenever
the audio alarm is active (except during POST and lamp test). The controlling bit is output
from the CPU PCB and is optically isolated in the conversion PCB, then applied to the
interface PCB as a +12 V signal, IDO11. Here, the controlling bit is ORed with the BUV signal,
resulting in the nurse call relay being energized either under software control (IDO11 high) or
whenever the BUV signal is high. When the relay coil is energized, the normally open relay is
closed, applying the active nurse call signal to the analog output connector.

2.4.2.9 A/D Conversion (Figure 2-54)


Analog device signals are applied to a multiplexer on the interface PCB. A single device’s
outputs are selected, based on software-controlled chip enable inputs (CE0/ through CE4/).
The multiplexed outputs are then applied to an A/D converter on the conversion PCB. The
eight-bit wide digital representation is placed on the Multibus as data to be read by the CPU.

2.4.2.10 Proportional Solenoid Valve Operation (Figure 2-55)


The size of the proportional solenoid valve (PSOL) openings determines the gas flow to the
patient. To control the openings, the CPU outputs data from 12-bit wide ports on the CPU
PCB to the conversion PCB. Here, data to control each PSOL is converted to an analog signal
by the PSOL’s own DAC. The analog signal is applied to a PSOL input selector, which
normally selects the DAC outputs. (If the ventilator is in BUV, however, values supplied by
BUV volume potentiometers R85 and R86 are supplied to the selector.) The resulting analog
signal passes through the motherboard to drive the PSOL.

2.4.2.10 Proportional Solenoid Valve Operation (Figure 2-55)


The size of the proportional solenoid valve (PSOL) openings determines the gas flow to the
patient. To control the openings, the CPU outputs data from 12-bit wide ports on the CPU
PCB to the conversion PCB. Here, data to control each PSOL is converted to an analog signal
by the PSOL’s own DAC. The analog signal is applied to a PSOL input selector, which
normally selects the DAC outputs. (If the ventilator is in BUV, however, values supplied by
BUV volume potentiometers R85 and R86 are supplied to the selector.) The resulting analog
signal passes through the motherboard to drive the PSOL.

2.4.3 Emergency Operating Modes


The following describes how the ventilator operates under operating conditions such as
during a power failure, when the electronics are determined to be unreliable, or when the
patient is apneic. Emergency operating modes provide a reserve operational capability to
allow necessary changes to be made until normal operations can be resumed.

2.4.3.1 Bus Timeout (BTO) (Figure 2-56)


When the ventilator is functioning properly, a 2 ms bus timer on the CPU PCB (part of the
microprocessor in the 80188 CPU PCB or part of the timing section in the 8088 CPU PCB) is
continually strobed by the Address Latch Enable (ALE) signal, which is generated to tell the
system that a new address is on the bus. If a hardware failure occurs that affects the
generation of the ALE signal, this timer times out and sends a BTO/ signal to the
non-maskable interrupt (NMI) circuit. As a result, a 48F9 error is declared. A non-maskable
interrupt, the highest priority interrupt, is then sent to the CPU. After completing the
execution of the current instruction, the CPU inhibits the strobing of the watchdog timer;
this causes a watchdog timeout. See the subsequent description of the watchdog timeout for
further information.

2.4.3.2 Power Failure (Figure 2-57)
If ac power is interrupted momentarily, if there is a long-term ac power loss at its source, if
ventilator power is turned off at the utility panel, or if the +5 V power supply output
otherwise decays, the ventilator considers a power failure to have occurred. In any case, the
ventilator acts to place the ventilator circuitry into a known state. Exactly how the ventilator
accomplishes this orderly shutdown varies depending on the magnitude and duration of the
power failure.
When ac voltage is low. The power fail module, which is part of the power supply assembly,
continually monitors the ac input voltage to verify that the ac input voltage does not drop
below the applicable trip point:
Should be Actually
100 V ac <81 to 83 V ac
115 V ac <94 to 96 V ac
220 V ac <186 to 188 V ac
240 V ac <203 to 205 V ac
If the ac input voltage does drop below the trip point, the power fail module’s INT0/ output
goes low. This signal is sent over the Multibus to the CPU PCB, where it causes a
non-maskable interrupt (NMI) to the CPU. The CPU completes execution of the current
instruction, then the CPU services the interrupt. The CPU now inhibits the strobing of the
watchdog timer, causing a watchdog timeout to occur (see subsequent subsection on
watchdog timeout). As a result, the INIT/ signal is generated, causing the ventilator to be
placed in a known state in an orderly fashion (see subsequent subsection on initialization).
During POST, the CPU checks whether the power fail output signal (INT0/) is still low. If
INT0/ is still low, then the [LOW AC POWER] message is displayed. If the CPU cannot restart,
then the INIT/ signal stays low and the ventilator goes into BUV. When ac power returns to
the threshold value, the ventilator returns to normal operation, beginning by running POST.
(See subsection on BUV operation.)
When ac voltages decay, the power supply output may also decay.
When +5 V power supply output is out of range. If the +5 V power supply output goes
below +4.775 V or above +5.225 V, the power sequencer on the DCI-display controller or
display controller PCB causes the initialize (INIT/) signal to be applied to various ventilator
circuits, putting the ventilator into a known state (refer to subsequent subsection on
ventilator initialization). The INIT/ signal is gated with the output from a timer, ensuring
INIT/ a minimum pulse width of 80 ms.
If the +5 V power supply output continues to decay, the ventilator takes other actions. When
the +5 V output becomes less than the battery output (+4.0 to +4.4 V when batteries are new),
VBATT power to RAM and audio alarm circuits, etc., switches to battery power. See
Section 2.3.3 (battery power distribution). This action protects the integrity of battery-backed
RAM while power is being lost. Data in RAM is needed by the CPU to restore the ventilator
conditions to those that existed before ac power loss.
If the +5 V supply output falls below +3 V, relay K1 in the power sequencer clamps the INIT/
signal to ground. This relay, which is normally energized, is de-energized at +3 V, causing the
contacts to close, and grounding INIT/. This relay ensures that the ventilator will be
initialized even though the CPU operation and +5 V supply are unreliable. If the CPU cannot
restart, then the INIT/ signal stays low and the ventilator goes into back-up ventilation
(BUV). When ac power returns to the threshold value, the ventilator returns to normal
operation, beginning by running POST. See the subsequent discussion of BUV operation.

2.4.3.3 Watchdog Timeout (Figure 2-58)


The CPU constantly monitors software execution. If the software is running correctly, the
CPU causes the watchdog timer to be strobed via the WDSTB line. Should the CPU detect a
problem, such as a bus timeout (see preceding discussion on bus timeout) or a power fail
condition (see preceding subsection on power failure), the CPU stops strobing the timer and
the timer times out.
On the megaCPU PCB or the 80188 CPU PCB, the watchdog timer is then started. If 62.5 ms
elapse and the timer has not been strobed, the timer times out, resulting in a 500 ms INIT/
signal being generated. The INIT/ signal initializes the ventilator to a known state (see
subsequent subsection on initialization), and can result in BUV starting.
On the 8088 CPU PCB, when the watchdog timer times out, it sends an ALARM/ signal to the
display controller PCB. Here, a timer (part of the power sequencer) is started, resulting in a 25
ms INIT/ pulse being generated (see next subsection). INIT/ initializes the ventilator to a
known state, and can result in BUV beginning.

2.4.3.4 Initialization (Figure 2-59)


Under certain circumstances, like during powerup or after power is restored following a
power failure, the ventilator takes steps to reset the ventilator electronics to a known state.
The electronics are put into this initialized state by the INIT/ signal, which is generated by
one of the following:
• The power sequencer on the DCI-display controller PCB (80188-based units) or the
display controller PCB (8088-based units)
• The watchdog timer on the 80188 CPU PCB
• The clock generator on the 8088 CPU PCB
The INIT/ signal is routed to various PCBs via the Multibus, resulting in these actions
being taken:
• The CPU Is placed in the reset state.
• The CPU PCB LEDs are turned off.
• Battery-backed RAM is disabled, preventing damage to data.
• The keyboard is locked.
• Real-time clock inputs and outputs are disabled.
• The audio alarm latches on the conversion PCB are cleared.
The INIT/ signal also starts the BUV timer, which will place the ventilator into BUV in
10 seconds if POST fails.

2.4.3.5 Back-up Ventilation (Figure 2-60)


The ventilator invokes an emergency ventilation mode called back-up ventilation (BUV).
BUV allows the ventilator to operate completely free of CPU control if the CPU fails or if a
critical failure of the electrical system occurs. Because the CPU cannot reliably be expected to
control the pneumatics in such a case, alternate non-CPU controlled circuitry is provided on
the interface PCB to control some pneumatic components. BUV is an emergency operating
mode so the ventilator must be removed from the patient and replaced by a ventilator which
has undergone a successful EST.
When the ventilator is in BUV, the BACK-UP VENTILATOR alarm summary display is lit and
the audible alarm is sounded, if possible. In addition, the 20-character display may show a
message. Table 2-3 helps you interpret the cause of BUV.

ac power low LOW Monitored ac power dropped below trip point for prolonged

this time. This is the only situation where it is unnecessary to run
EST to get out of BUV.

Intentional BUV RUN EST Ventilator was placed into BUV by turning ventilator off, then on,
DO NOT USE while it was running EST.

Triggering BUV. BUV is triggered either under CPU control via the SET/ signal (Figure 2-60)
or INIT/ signal (see preceding subsection on initialization).
The SET/ signal is generated when the CPU detects any of these conditions:
• Three system errors within 24 hours operating time
• A POST failure
• A fault during its normal processing
• Low ac power
• Intentional BUV (turning ventilator off during EST)
To generate the SET/ signal, the CPU writes to a memory location in the BUV control section
on the conversion PCB. (If for some reason the CPU cannot write to this location, then it will
be unable to strobe the watchdog timer also, and a watchdog timeout will occur.) As a result,
the SET/ signal (IDO13/) is sent to the BUV circuit on the interface PCB, starting BUV at once.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 2-103
2 Theory of Operation

The BUV can also be invoked via the INIT/ signal. When the INIT/ signal goes active, the
INIT/ signal is sent to the interface PCB, where the INIT/ signal starts a 10-second timer in the
BUV. During this 10-second interval, the CPU executes POST. If POST does not pass, BUV
assumes control of the ventilator.
If the +12 V input to the PCB is low, however, this BUV timer will not be allowed to start,
because a reliable +12 V supply is crucial to BUV. Instead, the ventilator will go into safety
valve open mode (see subsequent subsection).
Manifestations of BUV (Figure 2-60). After BUV is initialized, a timer internal to the BUV
circuitry on the interface PCB outputs a signal (CLK), which controls the time of the
exhalation and inspiration periods. The BUV outputs a BUV signal, which is used to control
pneumatic components involved in BUV. If the patient pressure is determined to be greater
than 30 cmH2O above PEEP, BUV outputs the high inspiratory pressure (HIP) signal.
Some of the effects of BUV assuming control are:
• Alarm sounded. The BUV signal is output from the interface PCB to the conversion PCB as
IDI7 (BUV STAT). Here it turns on the alarm.
• BACK UP VENTILATOR indicator lit. The BUV signal, output from the interface PCB as
BUV LAMP, turns on the BACK UP VENTILATOR indicator on the front panel display PCB.
• Mandatory breaths with fixed parameters delivered. Only mandatory breaths are given, using
these default ventilator settings: TIDAL VOLUME -0.5 liter, RESPIRATORY RATE -12 bpm,
PEAK FLOW -45 lpm, O2% -100 (if oxygen is not available, 21% O2 is used). Breath timing is
determined by timing circuits in the BUV. Tidal volume is determined by BUV volume
potentiometers (R85 and R86), which supply the PSOLs with analog inputs.
• Patient system pressure limited. If patient pressure is 30 cmH2O above PEEP, BUV pressure
switch PS4 is opened, resulting in patient system pressure being limited to 30 cmH2O above
PEEP. This is accomplished by disabling the PSOLs and energizing the exhalation pilot control
solenoid, SOL4.
• PEEP/CPAP active. PEEP/CPAP remains active, but the level is not displayed.
• Keyboard and controls deactivated: Ventilator controls, including the <EST> button, are
inactive.
• Displays blanked. All displays, except the 20-character display, are blanked.
• A/D and D/A conversion inhibited. This is accomplished by clearing all DACs, disabling the A/
DC multiplexer on the interface PCB, and resetting a counter in the
A/DC.
• Solenoids, the compressor, and the battery charger are placed into a safe state.
Because software cannot control the pneumatics during BUV, circuitry is provided on the
interface PCB to duplicate some of the decisions about pneumatic control that would
otherwise be made by the software. Some of these decisions are:
• Safety valve. The safety valve opens if source gases are not available.
• Cross-over solenoid SOL3. If source oxygen (sensed by PS1) is available, SOL3 is energized,
permitting oxygen to operate the safety valve/check valve system and the PEEP/CPAP system.
• Exhalation pilot control solenoid SOL4. During inspiration, SOL4 is energized, providing
exhalation valve pilot pressure from the output of PSOL1 and PSOL2. When de-energized during
exhalation, the valve uses PEEP as its pilot source.

2-104 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Theory of Operation 0
Theory of Operation 2
• Safety valve solenoid SOL5 and PEEP/CPAP solenoid SOL7. As long as oxygen
pressure switch PS1, air pressure switch PS2, or compressor pressure switch PS3 senses
adequate source gas pressure, SOL5 is energized, piloting the safety valve/check valve
closed. SOL7 is also energized, supplying gas to PEEP/CPAP regulator REG5 so PEEP is
available.
• Proportional solenoid valves PSOL1 and PSOL2. The BUV on the interface PCB
supplies the analog multiplexer signals to determine the analog input to PSOL1 and
PSOL2. The selection of analog inputs is based on such variables as whether or not BUV
is active (state of BUV), whether inspiration or expiration is required (state of CLK),
whether patient pressure is less or more than 30 cmH2O (state of HIP), and whether
any of pressure switches PS1 through PS3 is actuated.
• Nurse call relay. The nurse call relay is energized, closing the relay contacts.
Exiting BUV. In order for the ventilator to resume normal operation, EST must be run (except
when low ac triggered BUV). During POST, the CPU checks for adequate power to resume
normal ventilation. When the CPU determines power is adequate, it writes to memory
locations on the conversion PCB. The resulting RESET/ (IDO14/) signal is optically isolated,
then sent to the interface PCB, where it turns off BUV.

2.4.3.6 Safety Valve Open (Figure 2-61)


When the ventilator’s CPU determines the ventilator cannot properly ventilate the patient,
the CPU invokes the Safety Valve Open (SVO) state. This safety feature is invoked under the
following conditions. Table 2-4 helps you interpret the cause of the SVO condition based on
alarm indications.

POST execution Normally SAFETY VALVE POWER-ON When POST is run, it puts the ventilator into SVO
not OPEN SELF-TEST until it verifies that power levels are acceptable.

Regardless of the event that triggers SVO, safety valve solenoid SOL5 and PEEP/CPAP solenoid
SOL7 are de-energized (opened), and the pilot pressure and mix exit pressures are reduced to
zero. This allows the patient to breathe room air unassisted by the ventilator through the
opened safety valve. It is necessary that SOL7 is opened, preventing PEEP or CPAP, which
could increase work of breathing. Check valves CV3 and CV5 ensure that the patient does not
rebreathe exhaled gases.

2.4.3.7 Wall Air-to-Compressor Switchover (Figure 2-62)


When an external air source is available, cross-over solenoid SOL3 is typically de-energized,
the pneumatics are powered by wall air, and a mixture of air and oxygen is delivered to the
patient. (In BUV, SOL3 is energized; this discussion does not apply to BUV. See preceding
discussion on BUV operation.)
When wall air pressure is lost, as sensed by PS2, SOL3 is energized. As a result, pure oxygen
flows through SOL3 to the pneumatics (PEEP control and relief valve control system).
Provided compressor pressure switch PS3 senses adequate pressure, a signal is sent to start the
compressor motor. After the compressor output reaches 10 psig (68.95 kPa) nominal, SOL3 is
de-energized and the ventilator again operates on a mixture of oxygen and air.

2.4.3.8 Apnea Ventilation


The ventilator invokes an emergency ventilation mode called apnea ventilation if an
exhalation is not detected within the operator-selected apnea interval, provided the low
inspiration alarm is not active. Apnea parameters are stored in battery-backed RAM and they
default to BUV parameters. Apnea parameters are also used for disconnect ventilation.
During apnea ventilation, there is an audio alarm and visual alarm (red ALARM indicator,
flashing APNEA LED, and [APNEA VENTILATION] displayed by the 20-character display).
<ALARM RESET> and <ALARM SILENCE> are the only keys that operate during apnea
ventilation. After the condition that caused disconnect ventilation is corrected, press
<ALARM RESET> to restore the ventilator to its pre-alarm state. Normal ventilation also
begins when the patient initiates two consecutive breaths, each of which returns 50% of the
delivered tidal volume.

Theory of Operation 2
2.4.3.9 Disconnect Ventilation
The ventilator invokes an emergency ventilation mode called disconnect ventilation when it
detects inconsistencies between airway pressure, PEEP, and the gas delivery pressure in the
pneumatic system. These may be caused by disconnected or plugged tubing. The ventilator
monitors for occlusions, because an occlusion could greatly increase the patient’s work of
breathing.
When the ventilator enters disconnect ventilation, the ventilator delivers mandatory breaths
with the same parameters as for apnea ventilation (default parameters are the same as BUV
parameters). Sensitivity is not recognized during disconnect ventilation.
During disconnect ventilation, there is an audio alarm and visual alarm (red ALARM
indicator, HIGH PRESSURE LIMIT LED, and [AIRWAY PRESS DISCONN] displayed by the
20-character display).
<ALARM RESET> and <ALARM SILENCE> are the only keys that operate during disconnect
ventilation. After the condition that caused disconnect ventilation is corrected, press
<ALARM RESET> to restore the ventilator to its pre-alarm state.

This section describes how to install accessories on and assemble the 7200 Series Ventilator
after it is unpacked.
The procedures required to assemble any separately packaged accessories can be found in the
appropriate operator’s or service manual.

NOTE:
If unpacking is required, reverse repacking procedures in Section 21 to unpack the ventilator
and its accessories.

3.1 Ventilator DIP Switches


DIP switches in the ventilator must be set appropriately so the ventilator can communicate
with external devices. These switches are located on the DCI-display controller PCB
(80188-based units) or memory PCB (8088-based units).

3.1.1 Checking DIP Switch Settings

NOTE:
Each DIP switch block consists of a block of eight small on/off toggle switches. Always check
settings, as the settings may have been inadvertently changed during PCB removal or
handling.

Follow these instructions to check the DIP switch settings in a ventilator with or without the
DCI option.

In Ventilator with DCI Option


If the ventilator has the DCI option, verify that the DIP switch settings are correct by entering
Function 22, as indicated in Table 3-1 and Table 3-2. Function 22 displays the configurations
of the HOST (or DIGITAL OUTPUT) and PRINTER/HOST2 (or PRINTER) ports. Interpret the
switch setting information, referring to Figure 3-1.
If the DIP switch settings are incorrect, change them, as described in Section 3.1.2.

In Ventilator without DCI Option


If the ventilator does not have the DCI option, check the DIP switch settings by accessing the
card cage, locating the DIP switches (Figure 3-2), and then comparing their settings to the
chart in Figure 3-3. Change the DIP switch settings as required, referring to Section
Section 3.1.2.

NOTE:
• If the printer is to be connected to the ventilator’s PRINTER/HOST2 port, make sure the
port is configured for printer operation (through function 22).
• For Thinkjet printer users: Earlier model ventilators worked with the settings shown in
Figure 3-3. Later models and models with upgraded software may require that mode
switch 1 be set to off prior to turning on the printer. (This prevents insertion of unwanted
blank lines in the printout.)

3.6 Assembling Ventilator Cart

NOTE:
To install a cart or a cart drawer as an upgrade to a ventilator, follow the instructions
supplied with the ventilator cart kit.

A ventilator ordered with a cart is shipped from the factory with the cart installed. A pair of
hose management brackets, however, must be installed on the cart.

3.8 Installing Patient System


Refer to the 7200 Series Ventilatory System Operator’s Manual to install exhalation compartment
components, the main flow bacteria filter, the patient pressure water trap and filter (if
applicable), and the patient tubing circuit.

3.9 Connecting Gas Supplies


Warning
Gas supply connections conform to standards set forth in the Diameter Index Safety System
(DISS) for air and oxygen (3/4-16 and 9/16-18, respectively). Do not attempt to change
these connections. Do not use any gases with the ventilator other than air or oxygen.

066317 Rev. A (03/04) 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 3-11
3 Installation and Assembly

Caution
• The pore size of the ventilator gas supply filters is 0.3 µm. The small pore size is intended
to protect the ventilator. Do not replace these filters with a filter of larger pore size.
• Always use clean, dry gas sources. The ventilator gas supply filters are not designed to
remove water vapor from wet air. Damage to the ventilator may result if the air or oxygen
supply is particularly wet or dirty. Puritan Bennett recommends you install an external
water trap (P/N 4-019667-00 or equivalent) between the wall gas supplies and the
ventilator.

Connect compressed air and oxygen to the ventilator as follows:


1. Connect the high-pressure air supply hose (black hose connector), packed in the
accessories box, to the ventilator air water trap/filter assembly inlet. Connect other end of
the hose to a clean, dry source of wall air (35 to 100 psig or 241.33 to 689.50 kPa). Securely
tighten all connections.
2. Connect the high-pressure oxygen supply hose (green hose connector), packed in the
accessories box, to the ventilator oxygen water trap/filter assembly inlet. Connect the
other end of hose to a medical-grade, dry source of wall oxygen (35 to 100 psig or 241.33
to 689.50 kPa). Securely tighten all connections.

3.10 Connecting Electrical Power


Warning
When using a ventilator with a compressor pedestal in conjunction with other medical
equipment, be sure that the total electrical load (see Table 1-6) does not exceed the
amperage rating of the branch circuit to which the ventilator is connected. If the maximum
current draw through a branch circuit exceeds the ventilator’s rating, the branch circuit
breaker or fuse will open and the ventilator will initiate a power disconnect alarm.
• The ventilator is equipped with a grounding power plug to protect against
electrical shocks.
• Connect the ventilator power cord and plug directly into a properly grounded receptacle
only.
• Never cut or remove the grounding prong from the power cord or attempt to defeat the
grounding feature.
• Replace the power cord and plug if they are damaged. Using a damaged power cord or
plug may result in an electrical shock hazard.

Caution
Before connecting the ventilator to an external ac power source, check the information on
the data plate, located on the ventilator utility panel. Verify that the ac power is of the
proper voltage and frequency. Serious damage to the ventilator may result if the ac voltage
and frequency do not match those specified on the data plate.

1. Uncoil ventilator power cord from around its hanger on the face of the utility panel, and
plug it into a grounded power outlet.

NOTE:
• Whenever battery power has been interrupted, reset ventilator clock.

3.11 Installation Checkout
Test the ventilator for proper operation after installation and assembly, as follows. If
ventilator fails to perform during installation checkout, refer to Section 7, “Performance
Verification.”
1. Install the test lung, packed in the accessories box, on the patient circuit wye.
2. Turn on the ventilator using the power switch on the utility panel. The ventilator
automatically initiates the Power-On Self-Test (POST) (Section 5). If POST does not pass,
make any necessary repairs before proceeding.
3. Perform the total leakage current test (Section 7.6.1). Make any necessary repairs before
proceeding.
4. Perform the lamp test (Section 7.6.5). Make any necessary repairs before proceeding.
5. Perform the Extended Self-Test (EST) (Section 5). Make any necessary repairs or
adjustments before proceeding.
6. Perform checkout procedures for individual accessories (refer to operator’s or service
manuals for instructions).

3.12 Preparing for Patient Use


Before the ventilator is connected to a patient, perform these procedures:
1. Perform all daily periodic maintenance procedures (refer to the 7200 Series Operator’s
Manual and Table 4-1).
2. Perform all daily or patient-related cleaning and sterilization procedures (refer to the 7200

Refer to Section 6 for a listing of the POST and EST tests and error codes. Before running the
self-tests, familiarize yourself with the warnings, cautions, and safety instructions in Section 1
and 8.

5.2 Power-On Self-Test (POST)


This section describes POST, including its operation, test routines, and error handling.

5.2.1 Introduction
POST verifies the integrity of the ventilator electrical system. Using POST, it is possible to
quickly detect and isolate most digital and some electronic failures.

5.2.1.1 Structure of POST


POST diagnoses electronic problems using the CPU kernel, located on the CPU PCB. The
kernel includes the microprocessor, an EPROM containing the POST software, and LEDs
(eight in the 80188-based ventilator, three in the 8088-based ventilator). Because each POST
test routine requires successively more operational hardware than the previous one, it
systematically eliminates electronic components as possible causes of ventilator malfunction.
The first test routines check the CPU kernel. The next set of routines tests the CPU PCB. The
last set of test routines checks circuitry off the CPU PCB. The POST routines differ depending
on whether the ventilator has an 80188 or 8088 microprocessor.

5.2.1.2 When Is POST Run


POST starts automatically (1) whenever power is applied to the ventilator, including after a
power interruption; (2) immediately before EST is run; and (3) after a software watchdog
timeout.

5.2.1.3 If POST Fails


If one of the POST routines identifies a failure in a critical ventilator function, the ventilator
activates back-up ventilation (BUV) or the safety valve open (SVO) mode. If a test identifies a
failure in a non-critical function, it may still be possible to run EST while the ventilator is
operating.

5.2.2 Running POST


To run POST for diagnostic purposes, do the following:
1. Expose the card cage. LED indicators should be visible at the upper edge of the CPU PCB
(Figure 5-2 or Figure 5-3).
2. Turn on ventilator power.
3. Observe the LED indicators and the 20-character display. The LED indicators and the
20-character display show codes corresponding to the test being run, as indicated in
Section 6. Some codes may appear in the display and disappear quickly.
4. If a code corresponding to an error condition is continuously displayed by the CPU PCB
LEDs and/or the 20-character display, an error has been detected. The ventilator cannot
resume normal operation until the fault is located and repaired. Refer to Section 6 for
troubleshooting information.
If POST passes, program control is passed to the ventilator applications software.

5.2.3 Error Handling


POST reports error information using LED indicators on the CPU PCB and the 20-character
display. Refer to Section 6 for specific error information.

5.2.3.1 How POST Reports Errors


POST reports errors differently depending on which test routine is being executed. When a
kernel test fails, the LEDs on the CPU PCB display the error code. When a later test (a CPU
PCB or offboard test) fails, these LEDs and the 20-character display provide error information.
In any case, the error code is stored in battery-backed RAM, where the six most recent POST
and EST error codes are retained.
In 80188-based ventilators, eight LEDs on the front of the ventilator display error
information. Three LEDs on the left display the test section number, and five right-hand LEDs
display the binary test code, as follows:

7 POST passed
test code

If an error is detected during one of the later tests, an error code and message are displayed as
follows:
ERR xxyz
Refer to the tables in Section 6 to interpret these error codes.

5.2.3.2 How the Ventilator Responds to Errors


The ventilator responds to errors according to whether it considers the failure critical (capable
of compromising safe ventilation). Any error code is logged into battery-backed RAM and
activates an audible and a visible alarm.
Critical errors. When the ventilator detects an error that could compromise safe ventilation
(a critical error), POST stops testing and continuously displays the error message, but strobing
of the watchdog timer continues. In addition to sounding the audio alarm, the ventilator
turns on the ALARM light. The ventilator attempts to being BUV, but if that fails, the
ventilator enters the SVO state.
An exception to this is the 80188 CPU PCB test 3 (ac power test). POST waits for a period of
time for ac power to reach an acceptable level. If power levels become acceptable, POST
resumes operation. During a low power condition, the ventilator begins BUV or enters SVO.
Noncritical errors. When the ventilator detects an error that would not compromise safe
ventilation (a noncritical error), POST displays the error message and continues testing. This
message is displayed until the next error is detected or until the end of POST. If only
noncritical errors are detected by POST, the ventilator allows the operator to run EST at the
end of POST. Examples of such errors are the watchdog timer, the battery-backed RAM
checksum, and SPST connection check.

5.3 Extended Self-Test (EST)


This section describes the Extended Self-Test (EST), its operation, test routines, and the
meaning of the error information it conveys. This information applies to Total EST (TEST),
the full set of EST routines, as well as an abbreviated version, Quick EST (QUEST).

5.3.1 Introduction
EST is a set of software routines, which, in conjunction with POST, thoroughly tests the
operational integrity of the ventilator. These routines ensure the integrity of ventilator parts
such as the pneumatics, battery-backed RAM, the back-up ventilator, and the front panel
controls and indicators. EST also calculates the system compliance and the exhalation valve
area ratio and detects possible leaks.

5-4 7200 Series Ventilator System Service Manual 066317 Rev. A (03/04)
Self-Tests 5
5.3.1.1 When To Run EST
EST was designed to be run by (1) a respiratory therapist before connecting a new patient to
the ventilator or after replacing the patient tubing system, or by (2) a service technician to
troubleshoot the ventilator or to help verify the ventilator’s operation after the ventilator is
serviced. When the <EST> button is pressed to start EST, the ventilator automatically runs
POST first. When POST is completed with no critical errors (see Section 5.2.3.1), the
ventilator runs EST.
By contrast, the performance verification, described in Section 7, is a more thorough test of
the ventilator to verify it meets specifications. The service technician runs parts of or the full
performance verification after servicing the ventilator and at regular intervals.

5.3.1.2 Hardware Requirements


• High-pressure air (either an external source or the compressor) and oxygen
• Leak-tight patient tubing circuit
• No. 2 stopper (P/N 4-009523-00)

5.3.1.3 What If EST Fails


If an EST test fails, you may still continue EST execution, although EST will not pass until the
error conditions are corrected. It may be useful to complete EST even with errors, because
information on multiple errors can facilitate troubleshooting.
If EST fails, Puritan Bennett recommends that the ventilator be repaired before it is returned
to service. The ventilator has a limited capability to override EST errors and resume normal
operation.

Warning
Do not use a ventilator that has failed EST without verifying its operational integrity by
means other than EST and determining that the patient will not be placed at risk.

5 Self-Tests

5.3.1.4 Quick EST (QUEST)


Quick EST is an abbreviated version of EST, designed to be run when only the patient tubing
system is being replaced. Quick EST, which tests the ventilator in approximately 1-1/2
minutes, runs six tests that ensure that the new patient service system is connected and
matched to the ventilator. These tests are as follows:

Test Function

52 Autozeroes pressure transducers


53 Ensures that patient is disconnected
54 Tests for leaks
55, step 7 Autozeroes proportional solenoid valves (PSOL1 and PSOL2)
57, step 2 Calculates compliance
58 Calculates area ratio

5.3.2 Starting EST

Warning
Never press the EST button while a patient is connected to the ventilator.

1. Press the <EST> button on the utility panel (Figure 5-4), holding it for 1 to 2 seconds.
Prompts requiring your response will be displayed by the 20-character display.

NOTE:
• Before you initiate EST, if the ventilator is registering an alarm condition, press <ALARM
RESET>. Alarm handling has the highest priority of ventilator tasks.
• To cancel an EST request after the <EST> button is pressed but before test routine
execution begins, press <ALARM RESET>, <CLEAR>, or any ventilator setting or status key.
• If ventilator is a 7200ae and a 7250 Metabolic Monitor is installed—for the ventilator to
enter metabolic mode, Volume Calibration must be accomplished. Refer to the 7250
Metabolic Monitor Service Manual, Section 3, Service Function 5.
• Calibration data is stored in the ventilator’s battery-backed RAM. If connector J11 has
been disconnected during service, volume calibration must be performed.

5.3.5.2 After the Completion of EST


When EST passes, it displays one of the following messages. Respond as indicated.

Prompt Response

TEST AC ALARM Disconnect power cord and verify audible power fail alarm. Reconnect
power cord. Wait for POST to run and [REVIEW APNEA PARAMS] to be
displayed.

NOTE:
When returning the ventilator to operation after EST, always wait
until the ventilator displays [REVIEW APNEA PARAMS]. Do not turn
the ventilator power switch off and on. If you do so, [RUN EST-DO
NOT USE] will be displayed and BUV will start.

If power fail alarm does not sound during ac alarm test, remove ventilator
from operation, and troubleshoot it, referring to Section 7.8, step AF.

NOTE:
Puritan Bennett recommends you always perform the ac alarm test
after EST. It is possible to skip the test, however, by pressing <CLEAR>
in response to this prompt.

If EST fails or is incomplete, it displays this message. Respond as indicated.

Prompt Response

EST FAIL or EST failed one or more tests or it was exited at operator request. See
EST COMPLETE Section 5.3.4 to respond to this prompt.

5.3.6 Restarting EST


Restart EST as follows:
• If the [RUN EST-DO NOT USE] message is displayed, press <EST>. The [RUN EST-DO
NOT USE] message indicates EST was interrupted. When this message is displayed, the
ventilator also goes into BUV.
• During a test fail condition or during error code review, press <ALARM SILENCE>, then

5.3.8 Viewing Data from Most Recent EST Run


Follow the procedures below to view data from the most recent EST run. The data includes
the date and time (24-hour clock) when EST was last run, the EST status (pass, complete, or
fail), leak data, the exhalation valve area ratio, and tubing compliance.
On a ventilator with a 7202 Display, complete data is displayed by pressing <0>. Partial
information about the most recent EST run is part of the screen that automatically comes up
when EST is invoked (Figure 5-5 and Figure 5-6).
On a ventilator without a 7202 Display, view this data by pressing <0> while the [QUICK
EST] or [TOTAL EST] prompt is displayed. This data scrolls across the 20-character display
until you press another key.
EST may report error information, both about test errors and operator errors, using the
20-character message display and the 7202 Display, if present.

5.3.9 Viewing Previous Error Codes

NOTE:
To start EST at its beginning while you are reviewing error codes, press <ALARM SILENCE>.

The ventilator can store data on the six most recent errors detected by EST. This error data is
stored in battery-backed RAM. It includes the error codes and the date and time the errors
were detected. The error code display takes this form:
xxyz ERR mmdd hhmm
where:
xxyz is the error code
mmdd is the month and day the error was detected
hhmm is the hour and minute the error was detected
On a ventilator with a 7202 Display, this information is part of the screen that
automatically comes up when EST begins (Figure 5-5 and Figure 5-6).
On a ventilator without a 7202 Display, view this error data by pressing a number in the
range <1> through <6> in response to the [QUICK EST] or [TOTAL EST] prompt. <1> stands
for the most recently detected and <6> stands for the least recently detected error. If no errors
were detected, [NULL ERR] is displayed.
When certain errors, such as some soft errors, are detected, the address being executed when
the error occurred is also stored in battery-backed RAM. For errors 48F8 through 48FF, these
addresses may prove helpful in diagnosing the origin of the problem.
To make use of these addresses, get to the [QUICK EST] prompt, then press <1> and the
<RATE bpm> key in the upper right-hand corner of the keyboard. Make note of the 12-digit
number in the 20-character display. Do this for locations 1 through 6. If two or more of the
addresses you retrieve are identical, do the following:
1. Break the address into three sets of four digits. (For example, [40A361010100] would be
broken into 40A3/6101/0100).
2. Multiply the first set by 10H. (For example, 40A3H x 10H = 40A30H.)
3. Add the second set to this value. (For example, 40A30 H + 6101H = 46B31H.)
4. Look at the appropriate memory map in Table 5-12 or Table 5-13 to determine the
corresponding suspect part. (For example, if the ventilator is 80188-based, 64B31H could
represent faulty software.)

5.3.10 Clearing Error Codes from Battery-Backed RAM


EST error codes may be cleared from battery-backed RAM either when the code is first
displayed or while error codes are being reviewed. To clear an error code, do the following
while the [QUICK EST] or [TOTAL EST] prompt is displayed.
1. Press a key in the range <1> through <6> to display the applicable code.
2. Press <LAMP TEST>.
3. Press <ENTER>. The error code and any associated information, such as a memory address,
will be cleared.
