Oxygen Equipment User Manual

PREFACE

This manual describes the function, operation and maintenance of the

Maxtec Model OM-25ME and OM-25ME-L oxygen monitors. Notes are

included where differences may occur between the two monitors. As

members of Maxtec's MAXO

2 line of oxygen analyzers and monitors, the

OM-25ME utilizes the Maxtec MAX-250E oxygen sensor and is

engineered for fast response, maximum reliability and stable

performance. The OM-25ME is designed primarily for continuous

monitoring of oxygen levels delivered by medical oxygen delivery

equipment and respiratory care systems. Adjustable high and low level

alarm setpoints make the OM-25ME ideal for use in neo-natal,

anesthesia, and respiratory care.
