Adjustment Knob
Turning the set-point adjustment knob (Figures 11 and 12) moves
the red set-point needle in the oxygen concentration meter. This
allows you to specify the appropriate oxygen concentration in the
animal compartment. Once the desired level is set, the oxygen
system will control the flow of oxygen to maintain this concentration.
For more information, refer to Using Oxygen on Page 51.
WARNING: Before using oxygen, please read
Oxygen Warnings on Page 3.
The main on/off switch (Figures 11 and 13) controls all electrical
power to the unit. An amber light in the switch illuminates when the
switch is On. This switch must be On for all other functions to
operate. With this switch On, all functions are available including
oxygen, alarms, heating, cooling, and floor heating. When the main
on/off switch is turned On, the three circulating fans in the filter/fans
compartment, and the ventilating fan in the electronics compartment
start, and run continuously until the switch is turned to Off. For more
information, refer to Turning the Unit On and Off on Page 48.
12 - Main On/Off
Rocker Switch
The calibration knob (Figures 11 and 12) permits you to calibrate
the black calibration needle in the oxygen concentration meter to a
setting of 20.5% (the percentage of oxygen in atmospheric air)
when you first start up the Intensive Care Unit. For more informa-
tion, refer to Using Oxygen on Page 51.
