Hi all,

I have the panda resus hooked up to a liner and canister. When I turn the suction on, I'm expecting a vacuum of 50 mmHg but only measure ~20 mmHg. I also try increasing the expected vacuum but it still only measures ~20 mmHg. The vacuum does increase when the liner is manually pushed down when the suction is on, but manual intervention shouldn't be necessary.  

The resus passed all checkout tests, I tried calibrating it anyways, and it passed all checkout tests again. 


I checked for cracks or leaks in the liner and canister and didn’t notice any. Tried replacing the liner and canister with another set and that didn't resolve my problem. I also tried both the original set and the replacement set on another vacuum and they both worked as expected without manual intervention.

 

Any recommendations for what to try next? Tests, replacement parts, or something else?

Hello all,

The screen on my Panda will not light up. 

I can see the screen when I shine a flashlight on it.

Is it just the backlight or is there something else involved?

When the Panda is powered on the display is dark and unreadable. It takes about 5 minutes for it to warm up and become useable. Can you replace just the backlight or does the entire display need to be replaced?

I cannot get my IRES unit to pass the Supply Gas Check Valve test, it has been a while since I last tested this unit. I vaguely remember that there was a tube you have to clamp off inside the compartment to get this to pass, can anyone confirm this and tell me which hose should be clamped.
