Warnings, Cautions, and Notes
Notes
Follow the setup instructions in this manual before placing the 
Respironics V200 Ventilator into service. If you have questions, 
contact Respironics Customer Service at 1-800-345-644
Save the shipping container in case the backup battery has to be 
returned to Respironics.
We recommend that before using the ventilator for the first time, 
wipe the exterior clean and disinfect or sterilize its components 
according to the instructions in Chapter 10, “Care and 
Maintenance” or 
the component manufacturer’s instructions.
Follow institutional infection control guidelines when replacing 
the inspiratory or expiratory bacteria filter.
When adding attachments or other components or subassemblies 
to the breathing system, for example, an HME or humidifier, 
ensure that the inspiratory and expiratory resistances (measured at 
the patient connection port) do not exceed 6 cmH
2
O (hPa) at a 
flow of 60 L/min for adults, 30L/min for pediatrics.
High humidity and aerosol medications may reduce expiratory 
filter life, increase expiratory resistance, and/or cause filter 
damage. Review ventilator patient graphics frequently for changes 
in expiratory resistance. Consult filter manufacturer 
recommendations regarding duration of use, maintenance, and 
removal and disposal of expiratory filter.
The ventilator should only be connected to an appropriate medical 
grade 100% O
2
 gas source capable of delivering a regulated 40 to 
90 PSIG (276-620 kPa).
The ventilator is shipped with the appropriate gas fittings and 
hoses for the intended environment, i.e. DISS (U.S.A. and 
Canada), Ohmeda (Germany), NIST (UK), Air Liquide (France), 
SIS (Australia).
All volumes entered into the ventilator are assumed to be BTPS 
(Body Temperature atmospheric Pressure Saturated (with H
2
O)) 
volumes unless otherwise noted. All volumes reported by the 
ventilator are reported as BTPS volumes. All pressures are 
assumed to be relative to atmospheric pressure unless otherwise 
noted.
The Air Inlet Filter houses a reusable foam filter that should be 
periodically cleaned. Refer to Chapter 10, “Care and 
Maintenance”, for
 more information on filter changes.
Unless the Mains Circuit Breaker is turned OFF, electrical power is 
applied to the ventilator even though the front panel switch is in 
the OFF position. With the Mains Circuit Breaker ON, if the 
backup battery is connected, the ventilator will charge the battery 
if it requires a charge.
