Notes
• No data indication is denoted by three dashes (---) in the agent measurement numeric values
(see page 2-20 for an example). When the agent vaporizer is first turned on, it may take 30–
90 seconds for agent identification and readings to be displayed. Once identification is
established, changes in concentration readings are virtually immediate.
• With a 200 percent change in concentration, an auto zero will occur and full accuracy of
the changed concentration will be accomplished within approximately 30 seconds.
• For the identified agent gases, these abbreviations (and colors) are used:
– Desflurane – Des (light blue)
– Enflurane – Enf (orange)
– Halothane – Hal (pink)
– Isoflurane – Iso (purple)
– Sevoflurane – Sev (yellow)
