The gas metering module M1.3 (A) delivers the timed variable flow of a gas
mixture with adjustable O2 and air content. Gas from the (central) supply sys-
tem enters the device via the gas inlet ports for O2 and air (1, 2). Two non-
return valves (3, 4) prevent each gas from flowing back into the supply line of
the other. The gases are mixed in the tank (7), and the mixing process is con-
trolled by way of two regulated valves (5, 6). The delivered inspiratory flow is
controlled by way of a third regulated valve (8).
The blower adapter (K) connects the optionally fitted gas supply unit to the
gas metering module.
The inspiratory unit/safety valve unit module (B) comprises the safety
valve (9) and two non-return valves (10, 11). In normal operation the safety
valve is closed, so that the inspiratory flow passes from the gas mixing and
metering module to the patient (12). In the other operating states, such as
when the Infinity V500 is in Standby mode, the safety valve is open and per-
mits spontaneous inspiration through the emergency respiratory valve (11).
The emergency expiratory valve (10) provides a second channel for sponta-
neous expiration if the expiratory branch is blocked.
The expiratory valve module (C) consists of the expiratory valve (13) and a
non-return valve (14). The expiratory valve is a proportional valve, and its
purpose is to adjust the pressure in the respiratory system. The non-return
valve (14), in conjunction with the emergency air outlet valve (10), prevents
rebreathing during spontaneous breathing. The expiratory flow sensor (D,
15) measures the expiratory flow based on the hot-wire anemometry measur-
ing principle.
Conversion of the mass flow into a volumetric flow (BTPS) requires knowl-
edge of the ambient pressure. The ambient pressure is measured with the
barometric pressure sensor (E, 16).
The pressure in the respiratory system is measured by two independent pres-

sure sensors (18, 20). They together make up the pressure measurement
module (F). The pressure sensors are balanced cyclically. For that purpose,
the pressure sensors are vented to atmosphere via the two calibration valves
(17, 19). Together with an additional calibration valve for the O2 sensor (21),
the calibration valves make up the calibration unit (G).

Pneumatic assembly
The PATO O2 sensor (H, 21) measures the inspiratory O2 concentration

based on a sidestream measuring principle. For calibration by the user in the
device check, the O2 sensor can be flushed with pure O2 from the tank (7).
For drug nebulizing, a pneumatic drug nebulizer can be connected to the

nebulizer gas outlet (22). To drive the drug nebulizer the Infinity V500 delivers
an intermittent gas flow comprising O2 and air. Cycling of the two gases
ensures that the variation from the preset O2 concentration remains within
the specified limits. The gas from the two gas inlet ports (1, 2) is throttled by
the pressure regulators (23, 24) for the purpose. The gases are cycled by
means of the nebulizer mixing valve (25). The nebulizer switching valve (26)
closes the nebulizer gas outlet when the nebulizer function is not active.
The nebulizer mixing valve, the nebulizer switching valve and the two pres-
sure regulators make up the optional nebulizer/ejector module (I).
The CO2 concentration of the respiratory gas can be measured with the
optional MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor (27). The CO2 is measured in the
main stream based on an optical measuring principle.
The internal gas consumption figures of the V500 in standby mode are < 1
L/min AIR and < 2 L/min O2; in operating mode 2 L/min basic consumption
(gas mixture as per FiO2 setting) + ventilation dependent on minute volume
(gas mixture as per FiO2 setting).
The gas return flow of the device meets the requirements laid down in section
6 of the ISO 11195:1995 standard: "Gas mixers for medical use - single
devices".

Gas metering module M1.3
Introduction The gas metering module M1.3 delivers the timed variable flow of a gas mix-
ture with adjustable O2 and air. The following details the design and function
of the gas metering module M1.3.
Design The gas metering module M1.3 forms a complete function unit and comprises
the following main components:
Fig. 5 Main components

1 Valve drive The valve drive controls the propor-
tional valve M1_3_V3 and is attached
to the housing of the gas outlet. The
upper diaphragm of the proportional
valve M1_3_V3 is also housed in the
valve drive.
2 M1.3 PCB The PCB includes the electronics for
the gas metering module.
3 Gas inlet housing The housing of the gas inlet incorpo-
rates the gas connections for O2 and
AIR/Heliox, the filters M1_3_F1/F2,
the metering unit M1_3_R1 and the
non-return valves M1_3_CV1 / CV2.
4 AIR/Heliox proportional valve The AIR/Heliox proportional valve is
located on the housing of the gas
inlet.
5 O2 proportional valve The O2 proportional valve is located
on the housing of the gas inlet.
6 AIR/Heliox flow sensor The flow sensor is located behind the
cap.
7 O2 flow sensor The flow sensor is located behind the
cap.


8 Mixing tank The mixing tank is located between
the housings of the gas inlet and gas
outlet.
9 Cover Behind the cap are the gas inlets from
the O2, AIR/Heliox flow sensors, the
optional blower, and the gas feed to
the mixing tank.
10 Gas outlet housing In the housing of the gas outlet are
the lower diaphragm of the propor-
tional valve M_1_3_V3 and the flow
sensor M1_3_S3.
Fig. 6 Principle
Two proportional valves mix oxygen and air or Heliox (a mixture of helium
and oxygen) from a central compressed gas supply into a mixing tank based
on preset parameters. A proportional valve downstream of the mixing tank
meters the inspiratory flow from the tank to the patient.
Sensors measure the flow, pressure and temperature of the gases. Together
with the actuators of the valves, they form a control circuit for precise meter-
ing of the patient flow.
A blower can also be connected in place of the compressed gas supply.

A printed circuit board (PCB) amplifies the measured values of the sensors,
converts them into digital signals (A/D converter) and delivers them to a
microprocessor system by way of the interface. A D/A converter and amplifier
are used to operate the valves and calibrate the flow sensors.

Pneumatics function The pneumatic system is supplied with gas via central supply ports or by an
optional blower. Proportional valves control the gas flow at the gas outlet.
Fig. 7 Pneumatic diagram
Item Designation Pneumatics function

M1_3_C1/C2 AIR/Heliox, O2 supply inlet Compressed air/Heliox and oxygen from a central
gas supply is connected to the ports M1_3_C1
and M1_3_C2.
M1_3_F1/F2 Filter The gas flows through the filters M1_3_F1/F2 to
the non-return valves.
M1_3_R1 Metering unit 0.7 L/min/6 bar The mechanical design of filters M1_3_F1 and
M1_3_R1 together forms a water trap for the
AIR/Heliox connection. A continuous flow of 0.7
L/min discharges any moistures by way of the
metering unit.
M1_3_CV1/CV2 Non-return valve From the non-return valves M1_3_CV1/ CV2 the
gas flows to the proportional valves M1_3_V1/V2.
M1_3_C4/C5 Additional AIR/Heliox and O2 outlet Options such as a nebulizer or ejector can be con-
nected to the auxiliary outlet C4. The port C5 is
used to calibrate the O2 sensor.
M1_3_V1/V2 Proportional valve The proportional valves meter air/Heliox and oxy-
gen into the tank according to the preset O2 con-
centration and the pressure in the mixing tank
(200 to 400 mbar) (closed pressure control loop).

The flow of the proportional valves is measured by
the downstream flow sensors M1_3_S1/S2.
M1_3_F4/F5 Filter (component of flow sensor) The function of the two filters M1_3_F4/F5
upstream of the flow sensors is to keep the flow
steady.

Item Designation Pneumatics function

M1_3_S1/S2 AIR/Heliox and O2 flow sensor The flow sensors transmit the measured values to
the electronics unit, which then actuates the pro-
portional valves.
M1_3_F6/F7 Filter (wire mesh) The filters M1_3_F6/F7 downstream of the flow
sensors prevent crosstalk from the oxygen to the
air/Heliox flow sensor and vice versa.
M1_3_C3 Blower connection A blower can be connected to the inlet M1_3_C3.
In operation with a blower the pressure in the tank
is around 100 mbar.
M1_3_S4 Temperature sensor upstream of mixing To improve the accuracy of the flow measurement
tank at the flow sensor M1_3_S3, the temperature at
the inlet of the mixing tank (M1_3_S4) and at the
outlet of the proportional valve (M1_3_S6) is mea-
sured.
MC Mixing tank 0.5 L In the mixing tank the gases are intermingled to
form a homogeneous gas mixture.
M1_3_C7 Mixed gas outlet The outlet of the mixed gas is used to monitor and
regulate the O2 concentration.
M1_3_S7 Mixing tank pressure sensor The pressure sensor on the mixing tank transmits
the pressure to the electronics of the gas metering
module. If the pressure falls below the pressure
value preset by the electronics, the proportional
valves are opened according to the preset O2
concentration.
M1_3_F3 Filter (component of flow sensor) The filter M1_3_F3 ensures a uniform flow to the
flow sensor.
M1_3_S3 LPSV flow sensor With the flow sensor M1_3_S3 the flow to the
downstream proportional valve is measured and
the proportional valve M1_3_V3 is regulated
accordingly.
M1_3_V3 Proportional valve (LPSV = Low Presssure The (LPSV = Low Pressure Servo Valve) propor-
Servo Valve) tional valve M1_3_V3 actuated by the valve drive
M15.1 meters an inspiratory flow to the patient
according to the preset values.
M1_3_S6 Temperature sensor directly behind LPSV The temperature sensor S6 measures the temper-
ature behind the proportional valve and so the
temperature of the gas flow to the patient.
M1_3_S8 Temperature sensor behind LPSV The measured values from the temperature sen-
sor M1_3_S8 can be used to determine the
inspiratory gas temperature of other components.
The pressure sensor is also used to monitor
M1_3_S6.
M1_3_C6 Respiratory gas outlet The gas flows via the respiratory gas outlet to the
patient.
M1_3_C8 Inspiratory pressure sensor connection The optional inspiratory pressure sensor routes
the pressure signal outwards and can be used
there by other components.

Electronics function The electronics of the gas metering module comprises a printed circuit board
(M1.3 PCB). All sensors and valves apart from M1_3_S8 are operated by the
PCB.

Item Designation Electronics function

M1_3_S1 AIR/Heliox flow sensor Driver modules amplify the sensor signals and
forward them to A/D converters. The A/D con-
M1_3_S2 O2 flow sensor
verters convert the analog measured value
M1_3_S3 LPSV flow sensor into a digital value and make it available on a
bus system (LVDS=Low Voltage Differential

Item Designation Electronics function

LVDS LVDS is an abbreviation for Low Voltage Dif-
ferential Signaling. LVDS uses a differential
data transfer and reduces the number of
cables. Instead of a defined voltage for Low or
High, LVDS specifies a voltage difference.
This protects the transfer against external
interference. Any interference voltage is
detected as a DC voltage offset and sup-
pressed by the receiver. To attain a high data
rate and keep down the demands made on the
voltage supply, LVDS applies a voltage excur-
sion of 345 mV (typical).

Basics of flow measurement
Introduction Flow measurement in Dräger devices works on the principle of hot-wire ane-
mometry. Heat is extracted from a hot-wire sensor by a gas flow. The
extracted heat is a measure for the intensity of the gas flow. The following text
describes the design and the functional principle.
Design
Fig. 10 Flow sensor for flow measurement
Fig. 11 Simplified block diagram of flow measurement

The hot-wire sensor contains two thermistors (platinum wires) which are
exposed to the gas flow being measured. Both wires have virtually the same
cold resistance. Appropriate wiring configuration produces a measuring
bridge.

At a flow of 0 L/min, a high flow courses through the one bridge branch and
heats the platinum wire in the „hot“ branch to around 180°C. Only a low flow
courses through the other platinum wire in the „cold“ branch, so that the plati-
num wire is barely heated and is used for temperature compensation.
The measuring bridge is balanced when the resistor ratios in both branches
of the bridge are identical. This is the case when the temperature of the hot
platinum wire is constant. If heat is extracted from the „hot“ platinum wire by
gas flow, the measuring bridge feed control increases the heat flow in order to
keep the temperature constant.
The voltage drop caused by the heat flow of the „hot“ platinum wire at the
15 : resistor is a measure for the gas flow. When the bridge is balanced, and
at a flow of 0 L/min, the voltage at the 15 : resistor is 1.01 V. The higher the
gas flow, the more heat is extracted from the hot platinum wire. This causes
the heat flow to rise and the voltage drop at the 15 : resistor.
Since the hot-wire sensors have resistance tolerances due to the manufactur-
ing process and ageing, they must be balanced individually. For this, in the
„cold“ branch of the bridge the resistance Rcal. is fed with a voltage propor-
tional to the measured voltage. The proportionality factor is set with a D/A
converter. This means the total resistance in the cold branch of the bridge is
variable, and resistance tolerances of the platinum wires can be compen-
sated.

Explanation of the terms NTPD, BTPS and NTPS
Introduction NTPD, BTPS and NTPS are terms in ventilation which define the ambient
conditions for the breathing volume.
NTPD = Normal Temperature, Pressure, Dry

BTPS = Body Temperature, Pressure, Saturated
NTPS = Normal Temperature, Pressure, Saturated
The volume absorbed by a gas depends on the ambient temperature, pres-

sure and relative humidity. In ventilation this is indicated by the terms NTPD,
BTPS and NTPS. The terms, and how they inter-relate, are explained in the
following.
NTPD In ventilator technology, medical gases are metered from cylinders or from a
central supply system under normal pressure, meaning the inspiratory gas
emerges at the inspirator port under the following conditions:
– 20 °C ambient temperature
– Normal air pressure
– 0% rel. humidity
Volume measurements under these conditions are indicated as NTPD.
BTPS In lung physiology, breath volumes and minute volumes are referred to the
ambient temperatures in the lung, i.e.
– 37 °C body temperature
Volume measurements under these conditions are indicated as BTPS.
NTPS With regard to expiratory gas, passing through a flow sensor for example, the
following basic characteristics are applied:
– 20 °C ambient temperature
Volume measurements under these conditions are indicated as NTPS.

Sensitivities The difference in measured values between NTPD and BTPS is about 12%.
If a ventilator delivers 500 mL breath volume under NTPD-Bedingungen for
example, the resultant supply under BTPS conditions (heating to 37°C and
humidification to a relative humidity of 100%) in the lung is approximately 564

mL. This difference must be taken into account in application of the breath
volume. Ventilators meters the breath volume generally so that the preset
breath volume is active in the lung under BTPS-Bedingungen.
Apart from the 100% relative humidity, the expiratory volume measurement
relates to gas measured under normal conditions (NTPS). Since different
conditions to those in the lung prevail here (BTPS), the measured volume
must be assigned a correction factor. As a result, the volume displayed is that
which was actually present in the lung.

The following details the design and function of the PATO O2 sensor M12.4.

3 Gas channel (part of the cuvette)
Principle The PATO O2 sensor M12.4 uses the fact that oxygen molecules have a
stronger paramagnetic characteristic (attracted to a magnetic field) than the
molecules of other gases. The oxygen molecules' orientation changes the
thermal conductivity of the gas mixture The change in the thermal conductiv-
ity is used to determine the oxygen content.
Fig. 27 Oxygen molecules' orientation in a magnetic field
Function The gas mixture to be measured continuously flows through the gas channel.
In the measurement compartment the gas mixture is only exchanged by diffu-
sion, that is, there is no active flow.

The heating element in the PATO sensor element heats the gas mixture and
the thermoelement measures the temperature.
The electromagnets generate a magnetic field which changes constantly. The

oxygen molecules align with this magnetic field thus reducing the thermal
conductivity of the gas mixture. This also changes the temperature at the
thermoelement. This change in temperature is proportional to the oxygen
content of the gas mixture.
The measuring and control signals are amplified and then converted into dig-
ital signals, or vice versa, by means of an AD/DA converter. A microcontroller
system on the PATO SA MC PCB corrects these measured values and deliv-
ers them to the medical product via an RS232 interface.
The EEPROM on the PAT SA SH PCB contains the sensor's calibration data.
The voltage supply to the PATO O2 sensor M12.4 is 10 V to 36 V.

Driving gas O2, Oxygen flows from the gas mixing module M1.3 via the
Air port (NE4) and the pressure regulator (PR2) to the nebu-
lizer mixing valve (V10). The pressure regulator regu-
lates the downstream pressure to 2 bar.
Air flows from the gas mixing module M1.3 via the port
(NE5) and the pressure regulator (PR1) to the nebulizer
mixing valve (V10). The pressure regulator regulates the
downstream pressure to 2 bar.
The nebulizer mixing valve (V10) delivers an intermittent

gas flow comprising O2 and AIR. By cycling the two
gases, the variation from the preset O2 concentration is
minimized.
The 40 mL/min metering unit ensures that pipeline sup-

ply pressure can be built up when valves (V9, V12) are
closed and valve (V10) is leaking.
Nebulizer The mixed gas flows via the valve (V9) and the metering
unit (R10) at a continuous flow rate of 10 L/min at 2 bar
via the port (NE2) to the nebulizer outlet C4 on the Evita
Infinity V500.
Ejector The mixed gas flows via the valve (V12) and the port
(NE1) to the ejector of the expiratory valve HFV (High
Frequency Ventilation) option.

a detailed function description see
“LP Neo Flow“
12 Interface box This interface box is only installed if
the gas supply unit option is fitted.
Connector PCB The electronic assembly is isolated by seals from the pneumatic assembly.
This prevents leaking oxygen from penetrating the electronics in the event of
a fault and causing the device to burn out due to sparking. The connecting
link between the pneumatics and the electronics is the Connector PCB, on
which the wiring of the actuators and pneumatic modules is connected and
looped-through.
Main PCB The core of the electronic assembly is the Main PCB. The Main PCB delivers
all the required electrical functions not covered by peripheral modules, e.g.:
– On/Off logic
– Control/monitoring of the piezo alarm
– Evaluation/processing of sensor signals
– Valve drivers
– Interfaces for modules and for product integration components
– Voltage monitoring for the individual modules
The EEPROM of the Main PCB contains the serial numbers of the device, the
valve drive M15.1 and the lift magnet M15.2 as well as data from the device
check. For security reasons, this data is mirrored in the EEPROM of the
Power PCB. The EEPROM of the Main PCB is the master, meaning that
when the Power PCB is replaced the data from the Main PCB is automatically
imported into it.
All software options belonging to the device are stored on the Main PCB on a
Smart Card.
The function of the piezo alarm is checked by way of the „GC Test“ signal to
the piezo circuit. A short pulse from the Gold Cap controls the piezo buzzer.
The current through the piezo buzzer is measured via the „IPZ Flag“ wire.
The current level provides an indication of function capability. By way of the
„PzSync“ wire the interval frequency of the piezo alarm is measured.

Electronic assembly
If the pressure in the tank of the gas metering module M1.3 rises to a value
>600 mbar due to a fault, the „over pressure“ signal is generated and triggers
a shut-off of all valves via the „PI Release Logic“. In this process, the safety
valve and the expiratory valve are opened so that the patient's lung is venti-
lated.
Power PCB To make room on the Main PCB for additional circuitry components, a portion
of the voltage supply is relocated from the Main PCB to the Power PCB. The
following voltages are generated on the Power PCB, with readiness indicated
by green LEDs:
– exter- +5 V
nal
– +7 V
– +12 V
– +15 V
– -15 V
SysCon PCB The SysCon PCB provides the connection between the system cable and the
„IFLAN“ and „RS232 User“ ports on the rear of the device. In addition, the
„Nurse Call“ connection on the Main PCB and the „Nurse Call“ port on the
rear of the device are also interconnected.
OLED Controller PCB with The OLED Controller receives its data from the Therapy Control Unit PCB
display M16. During operation, the MV and the O2 concentration are displayed
together with a bar graph for the breaths. This provides a function monitor if
the display unit is replaced while in operation.
OLED-Contact PCB The OLED-Contact PCB provides the connection between the electronics
unit and the OLED Controller PCB in the hood of the device by way of a
spring contact strip. This saves on a cable connection between the hood and
the electronics unit, and so makes installation and removal easier.
Battery NiMH M7 When the patient is relocated, or if the mains power supply fails, the inte-
grated rechargeable battery maintains operation, including the display unit,
for at least 30 minutes. The heater and fan in the expiration branch are shut
down during that time however.
The rechargeable battery comprises 20 2500 mAh series-connected cells.

After 10 cells a central tap is installed to detect defective cells. An NTC
records the temperature of the rechargeable battery during charging.
Power supply unit M7.3 The power supply unit is a module which can also be used in other products.
It delivers a direct voltage of 24 V at a maximum of 250 Watts. The output is
short-circuit proof and stable at no-load.
Therapy Control Unit PCB The Therapy Control Unit PCB M16 is the actual controller of the device. Two
M16 microprocessors monitor each other as a safety precaution. Microprocessor 1
(„slow“ tasks) is primarily responsible for communication. Microprocessor 2
(„fast“ tasks) records the data and controls the valves.
The communication between the microprocessors is handled via a DPRAM

(Dual Port Random Access Memory) which is a component element of the
FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). The FPGA is a programmable logic
module which permits different hardware configurations without have to
change the physical hardware, making the Therapy Control Unit PCB M16
universally usable. The FPGA provides external communications for the
microprocessors via various interfaces.

Electronic assembly
The two microprocessors load their program from a flash memory. The actual
device software is located on a Compact Flash (CF) card. The CF card also
holds the device's Info Log and User Log.
RFID PCB M21 The RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) PCB M21 enables RFID tags in
the tubing system, the expiratory valve, the flow sensor and the device (ser-
vice tags) to be read and written to. This allows the device settings to be
transferred to another device by connecting the tubing system to it, for exam-
ple.
A maximum of 8 tags can be read or written.
PVT Monitoring PCB M4.1 The PVT Monitoring PCB monitors pressure, volume and temperature. The
sensor data is read-in via an A/D converter and passed over the LVDS (Low
Voltage Differential Signaling) bus on the Main PCB to microprocessors 1
and 2.
The PVT Monitoring PCB consists of two identically constructed channels

(LVDS fast and slow). For safety reasons, the measured values are recorded
by both channels.
Neo Flow PCB The Neo Flow PCB with the connected Neo Flow sensor transmits den
inspiratory and expiratory flow to the control electronics of the ventilation unit.
Interface box The interface box connects the control electronics of the ventilation unit to the
electronics of the gas supply unit.

Therapy Control Unit PCB M16
Introduction The Therapy Control Unit PCB M16 is a printed circuit board with a micropro-
cessor system for control of ventilators and anaesthetic units.
The following details the design and function of the Therapy Control Unit PCB
M16.
Design The PCB has SMD components mounted on both sides. On the rear is a slot
for a Compact Flash (CF) card.
Fig. 49 Therapy Control Unit PCB M16
Function The PCB includes two microprocessors which monitor each other to ensure
that the computed data and the resultant measures are safe (see also Fig.
49).
Microprocessor 1 (μP1) is mainly responsible for communication, and micro-

processor 2 (μP2) for data recording and control of the actuators. Communi-
cation between the two microprocessors is handled by a DPRAM provided by
the FPGA.
The two microprocessors load their program from a flash memory. The Info
and User logs, and a backup of the Evita Infinity V500 firmware, are stored on
a CF card.
The FPGA used permits various hardware configurations. This makes the
Therapy Control Unit PCB M16 variable in use. The program information for
the FPGA can be saved on the CF card, and so is easily interchangeable.

For internal and external communications, the Therapy Control Unit PCB
M16 features various bus systems and interfaces.
– Five asynchronous serial ports (COM 1 to 5) (each microprocessor has
its own interface for Debug mode).
– Compact Flash card.
– Two Ethernet ports.
– General parallel inputs/outputs (GPIO).
– SPI (LVDS) interfaces.
The voltage supply for the Therapy Control Unit PCB M16 is 24 Volts (18 to
30 Volts). An internal DC/DC converter generates from it the various operat-
ing voltages.
The Therapy Control Unit PCB M16 also delivers the „POWER_PNEU_OFF“
signal with which, for example, a pneumatic system can be completely shut
down.

Safety Power This circuitry component on the Main PCB generates from
the output voltage of the power supply unit (24 V-Rail) the
supply voltage to charge the capacitor (GoldCap) which is
required for the auxiliary alarm in case of a power failure.
In normal operation the voltage is used to supply the piezo
alarm circuit.
Standby Since the piezo alarm generator is not intended to be active
Silence/Watc under normal circumstances, the muting of the piezo alarm
hdog generator from normal operation to Standby mode is trans-
mitted to the NodeController M10.1.

The Standby Silence circuit on the Main PCB generates a
signal with which the alarm generator mute is activated.
If the microcontroller of the NodeController hangs up, the
watchdog on the Main PCB permits the microcontroller to

PVT Monitoring PCB M4.1
Introduction The PVT Monitoring PCB M4.1 transmits pressure, flow and temperature val-
ues to the device controller. The following details the design and function of
the PVT Monitoring PCB M4.1.
Design The PVT Monitoring PCB M4.1 comprises a printed circuit board with a shield
housing. Two flow sensors and two temperature sensors can be connected to
the PCB. On the PCB itself, alongside the electronic components there are
also two pressure sensors.

Operating voltages The operating voltage is +24 V, from which the internal voltage supply gener-
ates +3.3 V for the interface and +5 V for internal supply. The +5 V and the
interface are electrically isolated from the rest of the medical product.
Sensors The analog sensor data is routed to an A/D converter which converts it into
digital signals. The signals are passed via the interface to the microprocessor
system of the medical product. The D/A converter balances the flow sensors.
The control unit controls the operation of the A/D and D/A converters. The
EEPROM holds the serial number of the PCB and sensor data, such as cali-
bration data for temperature measurement.

The PVT Monitoring PCB 4.1 comprises two channels of identical construc-
tion. Fig. 67 shows one channel. The analog measured values of the sensors
are recorded by each channel (as a safety system). The EEPROM and the
voltage supply exist just once for both channels.

Fig. 69 RFID PCB M21
Functional principle The functional principle is based on the RFID technology (RFID stands for
Radio Frequency Identification).
Data transfer between the RFID PCB M21 and the transponders takes places
via electromagnetic waves. The working frequency 13.56 MHz.
Transponders are memory units with no internal power supply. Transponders

are attached to accessories or device components, for example, and allow
them to be scanned in an efficient way. The transponders can be written to or
read by the RFID PCB M21.
The data read by the RFID PCB M21 is transmitted to the medical device via
an RS232 interface.

Valve drive M15.1
Valve drive M15.1
Introduction The valve drive M15.1 provides the hardware, the software and the electronic
circuit to operate a drive. The software runs on the microprocessor system of
the medical product and the hardware of the electronic circuit is located on a
PCB in the medical product. The following details the design and function of
the valve drive M15.1.
Design The following illustration shows the mechanical construction of the valve drive
M15.1.

Valve drive M15.1
Principle The valve drive M15.1 operates on the plunger coil principle. In a magnet
(Fig. 73/1) is a coil (Fig. 73/4) which is diverted according to the direction of
flow of the current through the coil in the magnetic field, thereby moving a
plunger (Fig. 73/3). The electrical connection (Fig. 74/5) of the coil (Fig. 74/4)
is made by a flexible PCB (Fig. 73/2). The Fig. 73 illustrates the principle, and
Fig. 74 shows the mechanical construction.
Fig. 73 Principle
Fig. 74 Mechanical construction
Operating voltages A DC/DC converter generates from the +24 Volt supply voltage +/-16 Volts for
the amplification and +6 Volts for the reference voltage generation of the D/A
converter. In the event of a +6 Volt (Powerfail) outage, a D/A converter Reset

is generated.
Enable The „enable“ signal causes a general shutdown or enable (Low aktiv) of the
valve drive M15.1.

Valve drive M15.1
Control The microprocessor system of the medical product presets a value to operate
the valve drive M15.1. This preset passes via the serial port to the D/A con-
verter, which generates an analog actuation signal from the digital signal. The
actuation signal is amplified and routed to the drive coil. A current flows
through the drive coil. The coil is diverted and moves the plunger which -
depending on the application - moves a diaphragm for example.
Beneath the magnet is a measuring coil. The movement of the plunger (which
has a magnet in the bottom) generates a voltage in the measuring coil (induc-
tion). The amplification circuit is designed to enable attenuation of the drive
by means of this voltage and the actual actuation voltage.
Protective circuit A protective circuit and a fuse in the actuation branch of the drive coil limit the
maximum current.

Lift magnet M15.2
Lift magnet M15.2
Introduction The lift magnet M15.2 provides the hardware, the software and the electronic
circuit to operate a drive. The software runs on the microprocessor system of
the medical product and the hardware of the electronic circuit is located on a
PCB in the medical product. The following details the design and function of
the lift magnet M15.2.

M15.2.
Fig. 77 Sectional view

1 Shaft 5 Coil body
2 Lock washer 6 Armature
3 Washer 7 Inventory
4 Cover 8 Housing
Operating voltages The actuation circuit generates from the +24 V supply voltage the +16 V start-
up voltage and the +5.1 V holding voltage to operate the lift magnet M15.2.

Lift magnet M15.2
Enable The lift magnet M15.2 is enabled and actuated with the two enable signals
POWER_PNEU_OFF and Safety Valve on/off. The POWER_PNEU_OFF
signal is a global enable, while the Safety Valve on/off signal actually
switches the lift magnet M15.2.
Control If the microprocessor system of the medical product switches the Safety
Valve on/off signal to High, the lift magnet M15.2 is actuated with +16 V DC.
A current flows through the coil and the shaft is diverted. Depending on the
application, the shaft presses onto a diaphragm, for example, which in turn
closes a crater. Because of the mechanical construction of the lift magnet
M15.2, the lift magnet M15.2 then only needs a holding voltage to maintain its
position. The actuation voltage is reduced to +5.1 V DC. The maximum dis-
placement of the shaft is approximately 4.5 mm.

MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor M11.1
Introduction The MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor M11.1 measures the CO2 content in
the respiratory gas. The following section describes the design and function
of the MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor.
Design
Fig. 80 MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor
Item Designation
1 Connector
2 Test filter
3 CO2 sensor
Principle The CO2 measurement is based on the principle that CO2 molecules absorb
light at a specific wavelength. Light at a wavelength of around 4.26 μm is
strongly absorbed by the CO2 molecule. Light at a wavelength of around
4.13 μm is virtually not absorbed.
Function
Beam path The beams emitted from the light source (9) are reflected by a parabolic
reflector (8), travel through the cuvette (7), and reach a filter/reflector (5). The
filter/reflector allows light at a wavelength of 4.13 μm to pass through, but

reflects the other wavelengths. The light at a wavelength of 4.13 μm is bun-
dled by a parabolic reflector (3) and sent to a detector (2).

The light reflected by the filter/reflector travels to a filter (10) which allows the
light at a wavelength of 4.26 μm to pass through. This light is bundled by a
parabolic reflector (11) and sent to a detector (12). The values measured by
the detectors are evaluated and used to calculate the CO2 value. The elec-
tronics required to do so is located on two printed circuit boards (1 and 13).
The optical assembly, including filters and detectors, is mounted on a metal

block which is kept at a constant temperature of approx. 42 °C. The discs that
face the cuvette have small heaters (6) which prevent the discs from misting
up.
Fig. 81 Mode of operation of the MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor
Electronic assembly A preamplifier and filter assembly amplifies the values measured by the
detectors. The A/D converter converts these measured values into digital sig-
nals. The microcontroller then calculates the CO2 measured values, and
makes them available at the RS232 port.
The A/D converters also converts the measured values from the temperature
sensors as well as the supply voltages into digital signals. With the help of the
control circuit, the microcontroller uses these signals to control the heaters
and to monitor the system.
The calibration data of the detectors are stored in the EEPROM.
The value of the test filter is stored in the MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor.
Depending on the cuvette used (disposable or reusable), a correction value is
applied to the CO2 measurement.
The supply voltage to the electronics is +5 V. The various internal voltages

required for operation are generated on the Mainboard PCB.

General information Each CO2 sensor is fitted with a test filter. The value of the test filter is stored
in the CO2 sensor.
As from Revision 05 Defibrillator the CO2 sensor is fixed. This is indicated on

the sensor.
Connections and inter- The MCable-Mainstream CO2 sensor is attached by a connector to the medi-
faces cal product (see also Fig. 80). This connector carries the voltage supply and
the communication (RS232).

Heating fan
Heating fan
Introduction The function of the heating fan is to heat up the area around the expiratory
valve to minimize the condensation there. The following details the design
and function of the heating fan.Fig. 84
Design
Fig. 84 Heating fan
An axial fan sitting at the end of a square tube flushes air heated by a PTC
through the tube. A PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) is a so-called
thermistor in which the resistance increases as the temperature rises. Owing
to their physical properties, thermistor applications include use as self-regu-
lating heating elements.
Fig. 85 Modelled view of the air flow

Heating fan
Heated air emerges from the air vents (see arrows in Fig. 85) and flushes
around the flow sensor (Fig. 85/1) and the expiratory valve (Fig. 85/3). The
air-guide plate (Fig. 85/2) prevents the warm air from being routed directly to
the flow sensor and causing measurement inaccuracies. The area marked by
the box in Fig. 85 is covered by a flap during operation.

Nurse call
Nurse call
Introduction This section details the design and function of the nurse call.
Design The nurse call is part of the alarm system, and connects the device to the
hospital alarm system.
Fig. 87 Nurse call
Functional principle The nurse call operates according to the watchdog principle for microproces-
sors. If the device does not regularly reset the watchdog, an alarm is trig-
gered. The alarm causes a relay to switch. Contacts X4 and X5 are closed
and the nurse call of the hospital's alarm system is activated.
Fig. 88 Nurse call relay
Connections and inter- The PCB in the nurse call unit has three input and output signals. The 24 V
faces voltage, the square signal and the earth are connected to the device-side
inputs (X1,X2,X3). The outputs (X4,X5,X6) are connected to internal relays.

Neo Flow PCB
Neo Flow PCB
Introduction The Neo Flow PCB, in conjunction with the external Neo-Flow sensor on the
Y-piece, transmits the expiratory and inspiratory flow to the control of the ven-
tilation unit. The following details the design and function of the Neo Flow
PCB.
Design The Neo Flow PCB comprises a printed circuit board with a shield housing.
The Neo-Flow sensor is connected to the PCB.
Fig. 90 Neo Flow PCB
Item Designation
1 Shield housing
2 Printed circuit board
Functional principle The Neo Flow PCB includes two measurement channels of identical con-
struction. One measurement channel is connected to the measurement wire
and the second to the shadow wire of the flow sensor, in order to identify the
direction and the flow at the Y-piece.
A continuous current is applied to the measurement wire and the shadow

wire and they are heated. The wires of the flow sensors in the Y-piece are
cooled depending on the flow, resulting in a lower resistance of the platinum
wire and a higher current flow. The current is measured by way of analog
measuring bridges.
The measured current of the analog measuring bridge flows to the AD con-
verter which converts the data into digital signals. The signals are passed via
the interfaces to the microprocessor system of the medical product.
The Neo Flow PCB is supplied with an operating voltage of +24 V. The inter-
nal voltage supply, which exists only once on the Neo Flow PCB, supplies the
electronics with +3.3 V, +5 V and +12V.
A “Gas dosage off” control signal is used to reset the Neo Flow PCB.

Neo Flow PCB
The complete Neo Flow PCB is electrically isolated from the rest of the medi-
cal product.
The EEPROM contains the name of the PCB “Neo Flow”, the part number
“8415051”, the version, e.g. “03”, the serial number of the PCB and flow sen-
sor data, such as calibration data.

tive surface x 900 pixels.

The 17” TFT LC colour display is behind a touch-sensitive covering, compris-

ing two screens positioned a defined space apart. The screens are coated in
a conductive material on the sides facing each other. When any point on the
touchscreen is touched, the resistance between the outer and inner screens
at that point changes. The change in resistance is used to determine x and y
coordinates. The accuracy is to within 2 mm. Communication between the
touch-sensitive covering and the processor unit is controlled by an internal
RS232 interface.
Processor unit The processor unit consists of the Main Board PCB and a hard disk. The
operating system is Windows XP.
The Main Board PCB is fitted with an INTEL processor running at a speed of
1.4 GHz. The system bus runs at a speed of 400 MHz. The Main Board PCB
features two DDR2 SO-DIMM slots, and can be upgraded to a maximum 2
GB of RAM.
The Main Board PCB provides the following interfaces:
– RS232 (3x)
– DVI (3x)
– LAN (2x)
– USB 2.0 (6x)
– System connector (supply voltage and data transfer)
During the boot phase software is searched for on the following media, in the
order specified (default):

1. via the USB port, e.g. on a floppy disk, a memory stick, CD-ROM or DVD-
ROM
2. over the network
3. on the hard disk
Connectivity Board PCB
The Connectivity Board PCB is powered even when the unit is switched off. It
is equipped with a 16-bit RISC microcontroller.
Other key functional units on the Connectivity Board PCB are:
– the power-up logic and power-up current limiter
– the ports
– the drivers for the LEDs
– the node controller
The 24 V DC supply voltage is tapped from the system connector and routed
to power-up logic and power-up current limiter circuits. The voltage is for-
warded to the Mainboard PCB.

The following ports are available on the system connector and are only
looped through the Connectivity Board PCB:
– User RS232
– Infinity Ethernet
– PAN Ethernet
The LEDs are controlled by way of the microcontroller and downstream FET
switching stages.
The function of the node controller is to compile data packets from the sta-
tus information and bundle them onto an RS232 channel for communication
purposes.
The „DockA & DockB“ signal line gives feedback indicating the Infinity
PS250 communication hub to which the system cable of the Infinity C500 is
connected.

DIN EN 62353 (IEC 62353)
NOTE
The Workstation under test conforms to the conditions of protection class I.
With the MCable-Mainstream CO2 module M11.1 (CO2 sensor) (sensor
connected) or the neonatal flow sensor the Workstation conforms to
type BF.
3.1.1 Notes on the „Electrical safety to DIN EN 62353“ section

Introduction The test of electrical safety following maintenance procedures as per
DIN EN 62353 also fulfills the requirements of VDE 0751-1 and IEC 60601-1.
NOTE
All measures labelled in these test instructions with (applied parts) must only
be performed if the device is fitted with applied parts.
NOTE
The tester, e.g. SECUTEST, must be correctly configured for all measure-
ments. If implausible measurement results are obtained, such as a leakage
current of 0.0 μA, check the tester configuration in addition to the test setup!
NOTE
The following presents a description of the electrical safety tests according
to DIN EN 62353 (IEC 62353). Whether the standard is applicable or not de-
pends on national regulations and its use must be decided on site under
consideration of applicable national regulations.
NOTE
– In testing to DIN EN 62353, not only the medical electrical device (ME
device) but also the medical electrical system (ME system) must be
tested.
– ME systems must be treated like ME devices.
– An ME system is a combination of several devices, as specified by the
manufacturer, of which at least one must be an ME device, which are
interconnected by a functional connection or by means of a multiple
socket outlet.
NOTE
With devices that are connected to other devices by means of a data cable,
this connection must be disconnected prior to performing the electrical safe-
ty check, in order to avoid incorrect measurements.
