Caution: Handle the machine with care to prevent damage or functional faults.

Caution: Ensure that the gas supply of the machine always complies with the technical
specification.

Caution: Before clinical use, the machine must be correctly calibrated and/or the
respective machine tests performed, as described in the operation instructions.

Caution: If the machine should show faults during the initial calibration or testing, the
machine should not be operated until the fault has been repaired by a qualified
service technician.

Caution: After servicing, functional, sensor and system tests must be carried out before
clinical use.

Caution: Only bacteria filters with a low flow resistance must be connected to the patient
module and/or patient connector.

Caution: Failure to connect device to a grounded mains outlet may elevate leakage
current in excess of permissible values.

Caution: During transportation of the patient module, transportation should be applied to


the rear to protect the valve connectors.

Caution: After changing the CO2 absorbent, carry out a system leak test.

Caution: The spring in the top of the APL valve may not be stressed. After removal, place
to one side, taking care that the spring is not unduly loaded.

10
Theory of Operation

Caution: Only Selectatec™ compatible vaporizers with interlock system may be used
with the Modular+ unit.

Caution: After each exchange of a vaporizer, carry out a system leak test.

Caution: Use cleaning agent sparingly. Excess fluid could enter the machine causing
damage.

Caution: The patient dome of the bellows system cannot be autoclaved. It is not in
contact with the ventilation gas. If soiled, the patient dome should be cleaned
with water and liquid cleaning agent. The unit can be disinfected with a standard
surface-disinfecting agent. Do not use alcohol.

Caution: Do not clean the machine while it is on and/or plugged in.

Caution: Pressing Quit at any time during the calibration procedure will cancel the

Repair Information

2 Theory of Operation
The anesthesia system HEYER MODULAR+ represents a flexible employable workstation to apply
and monitor anesthesia inhalation in semi-closed and almost closed circuits in low flow techniques for
minimized consumption of gas and anesthetics.
The basic model Modular+ includes the following components:

2.1 Microprocessor-Controlled Ventilator


The Microprocessor-controlled ventilator allows with its dedicated patient module time-controlled,
pressure limited, and a constant volume controlled ventilation for all patient groups of a body weight of
3 kg upwards.
The system compliance of the patient module and respiratory tubes are automatically compensated by
the ventilator. Low tidal volumes, therefore, can be dosed very accurately.
Thanks to the different ventilation modes, a ventilation is feasible, even in case of complicated lung
conditions.
A comprehensive test and alarm management system prevents uncontrollable operating conditions
and therefore provides the patient a high safety standard.
The ergonomically designed control surface allows an easy operation of the ventilator. The display
informs about the selected ventilation parameters and the measured values for volume, pressure, FiO2
and shows real time curves of the expiratory flow and airway pressure.

2.2 Patient Module


The patient circuit is integrated in a compact aluminum block. This block is brought to a moderate
temperature to avoid the formation of water vapor. In additional, it includes a controlled emergency
valve, a reservoir in form of a manual respiratory bag and an expiratory flow sensor.
The patient module is automatically connected to the basic unit through a motor drive. A threaded
shaft pulls the block toward the basic unit, and all connections to the docking block are checked in the
compliance- and leak tests.

2.3 Gas Conditioning Unit


The flow meter block features all the necessary safety facilities, such as O2 pressure loss alarm and
N2O shut-off. An integrated pneumatically controlled system provides a minimum of 25% oxygen
concentration in the fresh gas flow at all flow settings (ratio system).

2.4 The Ventilator Unit


The microprocessor-controlled ventilator allows time-controlled, volume-constant and pressure-limited
(CMV) or pressure targeted (PCV) artificial respiration without assisted or synchronized control
functions. The system also allows manual respiration as well as spontaneous respiration of the patient.
Adjustable PEEP, breathing time ratios (I:E) and pressure sustaining plateau functions are available.
Volume-constant respiration is effected by the time control of the respirator and the fresh gas
decoupling of the patient module. The ventilator computes the inspiratory flow required for the settings
tidal volume (VT), respiratory rate and the ventilation time ratio (I:E). The resultant tidal volume (VT) is
delivered to the patient at high accuracy

2.5 Adjustable Alarms


Minimum and maximum alarm limit settings are available for Peak Pressure, Mean Pressure and FiO2
minimum alarm settings are available for tidal volume and minute volume.
Repair Information

2.5.1 Pmax limiting on alarm violation


Exceeding the Pmax alarm limit automatically halts the inspiratory phase preventing airway pressure
from exceeding the high alarm setting. In the CMV mode, the setting of the Pmax peak pressure
provides pressure limitation. When reaching this pressure limit, a warning (alarm) “Peak greater than
Pmax” is displayed, and the inspiration is discontinued. The next inspiration is at a regular time interval,
the time control of the respiratory unit does not increase the respiratory rate. The result is a decrease
of the tidal volume “VT” and minute volume “M Vol.”. The respirator responses to pressure limitation
through displaying the Pmax alarm constantly.

2.6 Fresh Gas Decoupling


The tidal volume (VT) is adjusted independently of the adjusted fresh gas flow. This is achieved by
fresh gas decoupling. In inspiratory procedure the fresh gas flow is uncoupled by the decoupling and
expiratory diaphragm valves from the internal subsystem of the patient module. Fresh gas either is
filling the manual respiration bag (reservoir) or is led into the scavenging through the airway pressure
relief valve.

2.7 Compliance compensation


The tidal volume (VT) is automatically corrected in response to the compliance of the patient module
and patient tubes. Volume reduction due to system compliance is compensated as a result of this.

Repair Information

2.8 Electrical supply


The line cord of the Modular+ is connected to an internal terminal block. Directly connected to this
terminal are convenience receptacles and the unit itself. Line supply to the receptacles is available
with the line cord connected. Line supply for the unit is switched by the main switch at the right side of
the unit. The two pole switched power supply is protected by each one 5A circuit breaker. The
switched line supply is connected to the AC IN connector on power supply board AVM 2-1. Another
third pole of the main switch is connected via the terminal to the board AVM 2-1 (X5:5,6), enabling to
detect a main switch OFF position or missing line supply.

Repair Information

2.14.1 Ventilator pneumatic drive


Air or Oxygen, in the CMV mode, serves as driving gas for the ventilator. In addition to the flow meter
block, a pressure reducer, reducing the supply pressure to 200 kPa (2 bar; 29 PSI), is supplied by the
Air or oxygen connection. This pressure represents the high system pressure of the ventilator. The
pressure reducer is named HP pressure reducer.
The HP pressure reducer is placed ahead of the proportional valve that generates the driving gas flow
during the inspiratory phase. This flow is led through the flow divider and fills the bellows dome that
surrounds the silicone bellow.
In response to the inspiratory and expiratory phases of a respiration cycle, the pneumatic valves
(diaphragm valves) of the patient module are activated by solenoid valves.
These solenoid valves, MV1, MV3, and MV2 are supplied by a second pressure reducer assembly
(LP- double stage pressure reducer) at the low system pressure, together with MV4, with about 20 kPa
(200 mbar; 2.9 PSI)// 25 kPa (250 mbar; 3,63PSI).
Cyclic activation of the proportional valve and solenoid valves is steered by the processors of module
2 according to the parameters set on the control panel of the ventilator.
A description of the individual components will be found in the following chapters:

2.14.2 HP pressure reducer


The HP pressure reducer serves for a stabilization of the supply pressure for the proportional valve.
The flow generated by the proportional valve thus becomes independent of pressure variations.
The setting of the HP pressure reducer (200 kPa (2 bar; 29 PSI)) at the same time determines the
maximum inspiratory flow of 75 +0/-4 L/min with respect to the respirator.

2.14.3 LP- double stage pressure reducer


This pressure reducer assembly is supplied with oxygen in parallel to the measuring tube block or ratio
system, respectively. It reduces the input pressure to 20 kPa (200 mbar; 2.9 PSI)// 25 kPa (250 mbar;
3,63PSI), and is connected to the solenoid valve bank.

2.14.4 Solenoid valves MV1 to MV4


The solenoid valves MV1, MV2, MV3 and MV4 are mounted on a bank behind the patient module
docking station to which the tubes to the docking station of the patient module and the LP- double
stage pressure reducer are connected.

MV1: This solenoid valve activates, in the CMV mode, the valve for closing the outlet of the bellows
dome (bellows control valve) through the line 5, when driving gas flows in for inspiration. It is supplied
by the LP- double stage pressure reducer.

MV2: This solenoid valve activates, in the CMV mode, the valve closing the expiratory channel of the
patient module (expiratory valve), via MV2 through the line 1. It is supplied by the LP- double stage
pressure reducer via MV4.

MV3: This solenoid valve activates, in the CMV mode, the valve for the fresh gas decoupling
(decoupling valve) through the line 6. It is supplied by the LP- double stage pressure reducer.

MV4: This solenoid valve is used for internal supply of MV2 with pressure of the LP- reducer.

27
Repair Information

2.14.5 Pneumatic driving module


The driving module consists of the proportional valve and flow divider with an internal flow sensor. The
proportional valve supplied by the HP pressure reducer generates a driving gas flow of 0-75 l/min in
relation to the control voltage of the proportional valve of 0 - 5VDC.
The control voltage of the PV, required for the pre-selected parameter settings, is generated by the
CPU board AVM 3-2.
The driving gas flow Qdrive gas is in the following in relationship with the tidal volume:
Qdrive gas = VT/Ti with Qdrive gas = driving gas flow
VT = generated tidal volume
Ti = Inspiratory time

2.14.6 Flow metering module


The flow metering module attached to the proportional valve consists of a flow sensor with a
measuring range of 0 - 1 l/min and a flow divider. The flow divider splits the total flow in a ratio of 79: 1,
and the bypass flow is lead to the flow sensor. A closed loop that allows high accuracy and back up in
the generation of the tidal volume results from this configuration via the module 2 CPU-boards.

2.14.7 Tube color coding


Despite the local color coding system, all the pneumatic tubes inside the apparatus will be according
to the coding label inside the unit, if it is not according to the local color coding system, next to the flow
meter block. Typically it will be according to one of the follow standards.

Gas ISO 32 Standard US standard


O2 White Green
N2O Blue Blue
AIR Black/White Yellow

On the outside of the apparatus, the coding will be as ordered.

2.15.4 Components of the patient module

2.15.4.1 Ventilation bellows system

The ventilator’s driving system can be characterized as a constant flow generator. The driving gas of
this generator fills the bellows dome to compress the bellows. The breathing gas is pressed out of the
bellows into the circuit. Due to the weight of the descending bellows, it is self-filling when the driving
gas flow is stopped. The bellows control valve enables the escape of the driving gas.

2.15.4.2 Manual Respiration Bag / Reservoir

In the manual mode this device acts as a normal breathing bag, enabling the user to ventilate the
patient manually. In CMV mode this bag acts as a reservoir for fresh gas in the inspiration phase. In
the expiratory phase the re-breathing gas and the fresh gas are accumulated in this reservoir. The
bag’s in- and deflation corresponds to the volume balance of the breathing circuit and the patient.
When a volume loss occurs, the bag deflates breath by breath and finally collapses. Such a collapsing
breathing bag is an indicator for a leakage. The breathing bag must collapse if the fresh gas flow,
reduced by the patient’s uptake, is not able to compensate the leakage.

2.15.4.3 CO2 absorber

The soda lime inside the absorber retains the carbon dioxide from the re-breathing gas. The flow
orientation is upstream.

2.15.4.4 Inspiratory and expiratory valves

To ensure the gas flow direction the two one-way-valves in the inspiratory limb and expiratory limb are
integrated inside the patient module. These valves are seen activating form the top of the module.

2.15.4.5 Airway pressure relief valve

In CMV position the APL valve closes the re-breathing system towards the scavenging line and limits
the reservoir pressure to a constant value of 2 cmH2O. In manual mode the APL valve acts as a
normal spring loaded pressure relief valve, limiting the maximum pressure in the re-breathing system.

2.15.4.6 Room Air valve

Due to the tendency of the descending bellows to refill itself by creating a negative pressure inside the
bellows this valve prevents the patient from becoming any negative pressure by opening the
diaphragm and allowing ambient air to refill the bellows.

2.15.4.7 Diaphragm/Membrane valves

Inside the patient module valves operate the expiratory line, the bellows dome outlet and the fresh gas
decoupling line during the CMV-mode. These valves are controlled by pressured gas to open or close
the valve’s path. All valves are open when not inflated. The power gas for these valves is controlled by
the ventilator’s valve bank using a supply pressure of about 20 kPa (200 mbar; 2.9 PSI)// 25 kPa (250
mbar; 3,63PSI) from the ventilator pneumatic.

Maintenance and Calibration

3 Repair Information

3.1 Introduction
This chapter of the service manual provides the necessary technical information to perform repairs to
the instrument. The most important perquisites for effective troubleshooting are a trough
understanding of the instruments functions, as well as understanding the principals of operation.

3.2 Warnings and precautions


In the event the instrument covers are removed, observe the following warnings and guidelines

3.2.1 Precautions
1. Do not short components leads together

2. The instrument covers must not be removed by anyone other than qualified technical personnel
who have received supplementary instructions regarding maintenance of medical equipment
and/or have equivalent experience in this area.

3.2.2 Warnings
1. This device operates using compressed gas at high pressures. When attaching emergency gas
tanks, always open tank valves slowly, watching the cylinder gauge indicate the tank pressure.
When disconnecting the tanks, always close the valves slowly. Use the Modular+ flow meters to
bleed down the pressure, watching the cylinder gauge indicating the depleting tank pressure,
before disconnecting the tank from the yoke. Always open and close tank valves fully.

2. This device operates using compressed gas at high pressures from the hospital central supply.
When connecting gas supply lines, attach the hose connection to the machine before connecting
the quick disconnect fitting to the hospital source. Disconnect the supply hose from the hospital
source connection prior to disconnecting it from the Modular+ gas connection fittings.

3. Whenever flowing anesthetic gases, nitrous oxide, oxygen, or any hospital gas always use the
appropriate agent evacuation system.

4. Never oil or grease any oxygen equipment unless the lubricant used is made and approved for
this kind of service. In general, oils and greases oxidize readily, and in the presence of oxygen
burn violently.
Maintenance and Calibration

3.3 Troubleshooting Guidelines


1. Identify the problem – Due to the wide variety of potential symptoms, certain problems may be
more subtle than others. Following the guidelines of the tests will help determine the problem if
one exists.

2. Avoid shorting component leads together – During repair procedures, it can be tempting to
make a quick series of measurements. Always turn the power off before connecting and
disconnecting the test leads and probes. The accidental shorting of leads can easily stress the
components and cause a second failure (aside from the safety risk).

3. Use the proper equipment – The equipment listed below is suggested to fulfill a wide range of
troubleshooting requirements. It is imperative to use the designated equipment in order to ensure
proper results of any and all test procedures.

4. Clean up the repair area – After any repair, clean off the repair area.

Preventive Maintenance

4 Maintenance and Calibration

4.1 Introduction
The Modular+ maintenance and calibration is comprised of four distinct activities:

1. Inspecting and/or replacing consumable parts

2. Adjusting individual potentiometers

3. Functional testing

4. Programming coefficients into stored memory

Consult the Preventive Maintenance chapter of this manual to determine the appropriate interval for
inspection and replacement of consumables, mechanical and electronic adjustments, testing and
programming.
Ensure that all testing materials, including gas drive, breathing circuits, test fixtures, tools and
documents are available and in good working order prior to beginning test procedures.
Testing and programming requires utilizing internal service software. A password is provided by
HEYER.

4.2 Calibration Warnings and Precautions


WARNING: The Modular+ Anesthesia Machine operates on line voltage and at high
pressure. Therefore, an electric shock hazard may exist when the instrument
covers are removed. Repair and calibration procedures should only be
preformed by qualified personnel who follow proper servicing techniques.
Warnings are given in appropriate location.

WARNING: Possible fire hazard. Fuses (i.e., additional sockets) must only be replaced by
fuses of the same type with the same rating.

WARNING: Possible electrical shock hazard. The machine may only be opened by HEYER
authorized service personnel.

CAUTION: Refer to the maintenance intervals in the preventive maintenance section for
guidance on which steps are preformed when.

CAUTION: Use surgical gloves whenever touching or disassembling valves or other


components of the patient module.

CAUTION: Ensure that the gas supply of the machine always complies with the technical
specification.

CAUTION: If the machine should show faults during the initial calibration or testing, the
machine should not be operated until the fault has been repaired by a qualified
service technician.

CAUTION: After servicing, functional, compliance and leak tests must be carried out before
clinical use

CAUTION: Failure to connect device to a grounded mains out may elevate leakage current
in excess of permissible values.

CAUTION: During transportation of the patient module, transportation protection should be


applied to the rear to protect the diaphragm valves
Preventive Maintenance

CAUTION: The spring in the top of the APL valve may not be stressed. After removal,
ensure that the APL valve is in position “CMV” and place to one side, taking
care that the spring is not unduly loaded.

CAUTION: Use cleaning agent sparingly. Excess fluid could enter the machine, causing
damage.

4.3 Test Procedure

Preventive Maintenance

5.4 Cleaning

5.4.1 Cleaning and disinfecting the apparatus

Before cleaning, switch off apparatus and disconnect from mains


The apparatus housing can be cleaned with a cloth moistened with a liquid cleaning agent. To avoid
abrasion, the cloth must be moist. A surface-disinfecting agent may be used. Use cleaning agent
sparingly. Excess fluid could enter the apparatus causing damage.

5.4.2 Cleaning and sterilizing the Patient Module

The Patient Module can be autoclaved at a temperature of up to 134°C. Always autoclave the patient
module with the protection cover connected to avoid a damage of the diaphragm valves.

Before sterilizing the Patient Module, remove the bellows dome, bellows, CO2 absorber and APL
valve. The patient module requires no further dismantling.
Autoclave the APL upper part and the APL membrane, as separate parts together with the patient
module.

The bellows dome cannot be autoclaved! It does not come in contact with patient gas. If soiled,
they can be cleaned with water and liquid cleaning agent. Do not use alcohol!
The silicon bellows and the CO2 absorber canister can also be autoclaved at 134°C. To enhance the
life of sealing materials, a temperature of 121°C i s recommended.

5.5 Battery Replacement and Maintenance

5.5.1 Battery replacement

1. Open the access door (located at the rear of the Modular+)

2. Remove the old battery

3. Ensure the new battery is electrically connected and secured in the same manner as the original
one.

4. Close battery access door

5. Use only HEYER Battery (340-2020)

5.5.2 Battery Maintenance

Due to the self-discharging characteristics of this battery type, it is imperative that it is charged after
three months of storage (or when not in use). If not charged, a permanent loss of capacity may occur
as a result of sulfation.
The batteries used in the Modular+ are of sealed lead acid construction. This battery type may be
subject to local regulations regarding disposal. At the end of the battery life, dispose of batteries in
accordance with the local regulations.
