Detailed explanation-1: -Datex-Ohmeda called their fail safe a “pressure sensor shut off valve"-at 20 psi oxygen, the flow of all other gases were shut off.
Detailed explanation-2: -The oxygen fail-safe valve ( “ A “ ) is designed so that the nitrous oxide supply will be turned off automatically when oxygen delivery is compromised or depleted before the nitrous oxide tank is empty.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fail-safe mechanisms on the delivery machines are designed to prevent hypoxia by ensuring a minimal oxygen flow, thus limiting the amount of nitrous oxide that can be given. Clinical N2O/C>2 machines are limited to either a 50% N2O/50% O2 or an 80% N2O/20% O2 delivery.
Detailed explanation-4: -The anesthesia machine can be divided into three basic areas: (1) a high-pressure system, (2) an intermediate pressure system, and (3) a low-pressure system. There are essentially two broad categories of anesthesia machine vaporizers: variable bypass vaporizers and measured flow vaporizers. More items
