Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On-site investigation was performed by our field service engineer.The claimed issue was reproduced during troubleshooting.According to received information in service report, replacement of the drainage valve solved the issue.The ventilator passed all functional and safety tests and was cleared for clinical use.The drainage valve is powered with 12 v and electrically controlled by the pc board.The purpose of the drainage valve is to remove water collected in the water separator at regular intervals.The valve is closed in non-activated condition.During operation, the valve will be activated (open) for approx.0.5 seconds twice every minute by the timing circuit on the pc board.When the valve opens, the water collected in the water separator will be transported to the drainage bottle.The faulty drainage valve may lead to moisture air entering the air gas module in the connected ventilator.Water in the air gas module may damage the air gas module.The claimed part has not been available for the further analyze of the issue.The cause of the issue was related to drainage valve.
