Bodok seals a precise seal that agreements a tight closure between the cylinder burden and controller of an anesthetic machine or any clinical gadget requiring a gas supply, and a gas cylinder.
Bodok
Seal is utilized widely inanimate hardware and regions where
anesthetic gases are dispensed, for example, Hospitals, Dentists, Veterinary
Surgeries and Medical Practices.
Reason for Using Bodok Seals
Gas supply legitimately to the
anesthetic machine: cylinders might be appended to an anesthetic machine as a
sole strategy for new gas conveyance, or as a back-up for oxygen arrangement in
the event of pipeline disappointment.
Cylinder complex: this is a bank
of huge cylinders put away remotely to the structure to give a gas supply which
is then channeled into the structure.
Well being highlights to keep away
from the incidental stockpile of an inappropriate gas type.
Step by Step Instructions to Open and Close a Cylinder
1.
Distinguish
the substance of the cylinder (red mark, check color).
2.
Evacuate
the plastic covering around the valve.
3.
Preceding
opening a cylinder valve, watch that there is no residue or particulate issue
noticeable around the valve.
4.
Hold
the cylinder with the goal that the valve opening is confronting ceaselessly
from you.
5.
Break
the valve by opening somewhat preceding associating with the burden/controller
to pass over any residue sitting on the valve, at that point close once more.
6.
Guarantee
that the burden/controller fixing washer Bodok seal is available and flawless.
7.
Guarantee
that the oxygen stream of the machine the cylinder is to be connected to is
turned completely off.
8.
Ensure
that the openings and pins of the pin file framework are adjusted so the
cylinder gas outlet sits pleasantly against the Bodok seal of the
burden/controller (if it can’t consider whether your cylinder contains the
right gas for that burden/controller).
9.
When
shutting the holding screw of the controller guarantee that you are fixing it
into the cone-shaped discouragement situated on the opposite side of the valve
stem to the pin-file framework and gas outlet, a few cylinders have a weight
help gadget underneath the cone-like melancholy that it is significant not to
unintentionally fix the screw against (this gadget appears as though a screw
head).
10.
Open
the cylinder valve gradually by turning the shaft anticlockwise. An unexpected
opening can prompt a fast increment in pressure which can harm the machine, and even reason blast
or fire.
11.
Open
the valve completely while being used.
12.
At
the point when the anesthetic machine can’t utilize close the valve completely
by turning the axle clockwise (but stay away from over-fixing). Try not to
leave the cylinder standing upstanding without help.
13.
While
expelling a cylinder from the controller; close the cylinder by turning the
axle clockwise completely, guarantee flow meters on the machine are shut and
that gas inside the anesthetic machine has been cleansed.
