Chapter 4 - Operation and Care
Opening the filter/fans compartment panel exposes
electrical components inside. Use caution around
electric wiring and components to prevent injury to
yourself and/or damage to the equipment. Before
working in the filter/fans compartment, press the
main on/off switch to Off, and un-plug the electric
power cord unless electric power is required for
servicing.
Whereas the electronics compartment panel swings open on hinges like
a door, the filter/fans compartment panel detaches from the unit entirely.
To gain access to the filter/fans compartment, turn all four panel
access knobs (Figure 62) one-quarter turn counter-clockwise and
lift the panel completely off the Intensive Care Unit.
When closing the filter/fans compartment, first look
at the rear of the access panel (Figure 64). Make
sure that the locking arms on all four access knobs
are vertical. Note that the locking arms on the right
point down, and that the arms on the left point up.
Then, seat the panel in place over the filter/fans
compartment opening, and turn all four panel knobs
one-quarter turn clockwise to lock the panel in
place. Note: It is a good idea to tug gently on one
of the access knobs to be sure the panel is secure.
CAUTION: All four access knobs on
must be firmly locked to prevent oxygen
leakage from the animal compartment.
