Preventative Maintenance Tests
Preventative maintenance refers specifically to the service tests required to make sure the
monitor measurement results accurate. In cases where the performance of NBP is in question
or could have been configured during repair, the complete set of NBP tests described in this
service manual should be used.
The tests in this section verify the functionality of the monitor’s pneumatic system. All of
these tests, which the exception of the Basic Pneumatic Leakage (BPL) Test, require the use
of an NBP simulator.
Note
The monitor must be placed in Diagnostic Mode, with the NBP test screen active for each of
the NBP tests. To place your monitor into this mode see page 4-9.
Tools Needed for NBP Testing:
NBP cuff (40401C)
NBP tubing (M1599B)
Bio-Tek BP Pump 2 simulator or equivalent, with an internal test volume of 310 ml.
