1 WARNINGS
Using the Equipment
Always verify the desired bubbling flow in order for the anesthetic agent concentration in the circuit to be the desired one for the
inhaling anesthesia.
Always verify what type of anesthetic agent is being used by pressing the AGENT key.
If there is any doubt regarding the type of anesthetic agent present in the bubbling chamber, replace it.
When replacing the anesthetic agent, make sure you reposition the anesthetic agent indicator pin to the correct position. Pin
positioning reading ensures the correct calculation of the bubbling flow table.
Never exceed maximum chamber capacity, i.e. 100 ml.
The chamber’s filling funnel must be tightly closed during anesthesia so there is no gas leakage.
Vaporizer 1415 has two scales for bubbling flows, one for low and another one for high flows. Do not add the readings.
During a lack of power emergency, Vaporizer 1415 can continue being used without its electronic functions. However, special care
should be taken to prevent high anesthetic concentrations.
Maintain the bubbling chamber empty and dry every time the vaporizer is not being used in order for the equipment to be better
conserved.
The Vaporizer 1415 should be kept in the upright position while it is filled with anesthetic agent.
This operation manual should be read very carefully in order for one to use the equipment correctly and gain maximum benefit from
all its features.
Also, read the Operation Manuals for the other anesthetic machine parts and accessories.
The operator must supervise the anesthesia device continually while administering gas to the patient.
Fire and Associated Risks
Do not use the equipment in the presence of flammable agents. Additionally, do not apply oil or grease on the equipment to avoid the
risk of combustion.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use tubes and circuits designed for oxygen-enriched environments. Do not use electrically conductive
or anti-static tubes.
In case of fire, take care of the patient's needs immediately, turn Vaporizer 1415 off, and disconnect it from the power and gas
sources.
Service and Tests

3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Vaporizer 1415 was designed to integrate the K. TAKAOKA line of Anesthesia Devices. It is a rotameter-controlled universal vaporizer
designed to use the HALOTHANE, ENFLURANE, ISOFLURANE or SEVOFLURANE agents. Vaporizer 1415 is microprocessed and has
important features that render it an easy-to-use, versatile device.
TOTAL GAS FLOW is a mixture of oxygen, nitrous oxide or compressed air, regulated at the anesthesia device’s rotameter block. This
flow enters in the Multiagent Vaporizer, where it is divided in to two parts:
1- BUBBLING FLOW – small parcel of the total flow that is controlled by the flow control button on Vaporizer 1415 and is measured by
the respective rotameter. The flow crosses the bubbling chamber, becoming saturated with anesthetic agent steam.
2- DILUENT FLOW – another part of the total flow that goes directly to Vaporizer 1415’s output and then mixes with the bubbling flow
that is saturated with anesthetic.
The continual flow of fresh gases that leaves Vaporizer 1415 is, therefore, constituted by the total gas flow with a certain concentration of
the volatile anesthetic agent steam.
Main Features
High luminosity liquid crystal display to view the concentration versus bubbling flow/anesthetic agent flow ratio table set-up in the
chamber (indicated by the pin).
The required bubbling flow calculation function dispenses the use of the calculation rule to determine the desired concentration,
making it even easier to use the vaporizer.
The Dilumatic® safety system blocks vaporization and the supply of anesthetic agents unless the total flow is open at the rotameter.
The exclusive Pinomatic® system, that allows for easy interchange between Multiagent Vaporizers and K. TAKAOKA Calibrated
Vaporizers, through a quick connection system.
Two rotameters for the bubbling flow with differentiated scales for low (5 to 350 ml) and high (400 to 2200 ml) flows; This
characteristic makes Vaporizer 1415 adequate for any anesthetic agent, allowing the operator to view the bubbling inside it.
Amber glass bubbling chamber to protect the anesthetic agent from degradation due to sun light; however, allowing the operator to
view the bubbling inside it. Capacity for 100 ml of anesthetic agent.
Automatic recognition of the anesthetic agent indicator pin’s position on the chamber.
Bubbling flow control button protected against accidental activation with a 360o protection rim.
Internal sensors for automatic total flow measurement.
Internal one-way valves that ensure constant concentrations even when using controlled ventilation, avoiding an increase in
concentration due to the “pumping” effect.
Housed in a steel plate case coated with highly resistant electrostatic powder painting. This box performs as an extra heat exchange
surface, increasing the anesthetic’s thermal stability.
During a lack of power emergency, Vaporizer 1415 can continue being used without its electronic functions.
12-VDC power supply. The 12-VDC cable comes with the equipment for connection.

5 OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Figure 5.1 allows a simplified view of the flows that circle internally in Vaporizer 1415.
The TOTAL FLOW that comes from the Rotameter enters Vaporizer 1415 and reaches the flow divider, where it is divided into two parts:
1- BUBBLING FLOW – small parcel of the total flow that is regulated by the flow control button on Vaporizer 1415, and is measured
by the respective vaporizer rotameter. The flow crosses the bubbling chamber, becoming saturated with anesthetic agent steam.
2- DILUENT FLOW – one part of the total flow that goes straight to the Vaporizer 1415’s outlet without coming into direct contact with
the anesthetic.
TOTAL FLOW = BUBBLING FLOW + DILUENT FLOW
The bubbling and diluent flows mix immediately before the vaporizer’s output. The continuous flow of fresh gases that leaves Vaporizer
1415 is, therefore, constituted by the total gas flow with a certain concentration of anesthetic agent steam.
The anesthetic agent vaporizing process takes place through a high number of small bubbles going through the bubbling chamber,
resulting in a large area of contact between the gas and the liquid anesthetic agent.
The Dilumatic® safety system blocks the anesthetic agent’s supply without there being an oxygen flow (or total flow) open in the
ROTAMETER, since bubbling flow is a derivation of the total flow.
The Mini-Pinomatic bubbling chamber has another internal chamber, also made out of glass, where vaporizing occurs from a bubbling
gasket located at its base. This internal chamber avoids excessive bubbling in Vaporizer 1415, and it keeps the liquid level stable in order
to make it easier to read its volume.
There are also one-way valves that avoid the “pumping effect” under controlled ventilation, also avoiding anesthetic reflux to the rotameter.
The total flow that enters Vaporizer 1415 is measured by an internal sensor. This flow sensor is constituted by a pneumatic component
that has resistance to the flow, associated to a differential pressure transducer. The differential pressure transducer supplies an indication
to the microprocessor on pressure falls through the pneumatic component, and this value is related to the existing flow.
Then, the microprocessor, through firmware elaborated especially for Vaporizer 1415, calculates the CONCENTRATION versus
BUBBLING FLOW correlation table by reading the TOTAL FLOW parameters, the anesthetic agent in use and by considering a barometric
pressure of 700 mmHg (altitude of the city of São Paulo)

6.2 Front View

The items below refer to Ventilator 1415’s front view (Figure 6-1).
1- “AGENT” Key
When depressed, this key shows the anesthetic agent indicated by the Mini-Pinomatic bubbling chamber indicator pin.
Warning
The electronic recognition system reads the agent indicator pin position and DOES NOT IDENTIFY THE ANESTHETIC
AGENT.
2- Liquid Crystal Display “ Manual”

This display shows the data calculated in form of a CONCENTRATION x BUBBLING FLOW table according to the following identified
parameters:
Position of the anesthetic agent indicator pin;

Total flow originating from the rotameter.
3- High Flow Rotameter
Rotameter that measures the bubbling flow as adjusted by the control (6). This rotameter should be used to read flows between 0.4 and
2.2 l/min. Reading is taken in the middle of the sphere.
4- Low Flow Rotameter

Rotameter that measures the bubbling flow as adjusted by the control (6). This rotameter should be used to read flows between 5 and 350
ml/min. Reading is taken in the middle of the sphere.
Warning
Do not add the readings from both rotameters (3) and (4), since both indicate the same flow. Use the rotameter suited for
the flow range that is being measured – low or high.
5- Bubbling Chamber Support for the MINI-PINOMATIC® System

Bubbling Chamber support with a flow input orifice and a flow output orifice, to be coupled to the bubbling chamber’s upper base, by this

7 DISPLAY
Vaporizer 1415’s front panel has a display that shows important alphanumeric information to regulate Vaporizer 1415 and for better
anesthesia control. The microprocessor performs the required bubbling flow calculation, dispensing the use of a calculation rule to
determine the desired concentration.
The most important information the computerized display shows is the anesthetic agent concentration versus flow bubbling relation
table. These required bubbling flow values appear below the concentration values shown on the display.
The microprocessor calculates the display information theoretically, based on values measured by internal sensors and on data supplied
by the operator, according to the following table:

7.1 Screens
7.1.1 Start-up
As soon as Vaporizer 1415 is turned on, its computerized display shows a system start-up screen (Figure 7-1). This screen has
information on the anesthetic agent being used and on the software release number. The latter is important for maintenance purposes.
After a short period of time, the display will progress automatically to the first concentration versus bubbling flow table screen.
Figure 7-1: Start-up Screen
7.1.2 Concentration x bubbling flow relation tables
This is the most important information displayed, and these are the required bubbling flows shown under the values of the different
concentrations. These values guide the operator on the bubbling flow that must be opened manually on Vaporizer 1415 for the respective
concentrations to be reached. The bubbling flow is expressed in ml/minute.
Vaporizer 1415 allows anesthetic agent concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 9.0% to be adjusted in the mixture. These concentrations are
divided into three screens:
− 0.5 to 3.0% (Figure 7-2)

− 3.5 to 6.0% (Figure 7-3)
− 6.5 to 9.0 % (Figure 7-4)
To go through the three possible screens, press the DISPLAY key repeatedly. The process is cyclical. After the last screen, the cycle goes
back to showing the 0.5% to 3.0% table.

Figure 7-2: First Screen: CONCENTRATION from 0.5% to 3.0%
Figure 7-3: Second Screen: CONCENTRATION from 3.5% to 6.0%
Figure 7-4: Third Screen CONCENTRATION of 6.5 to 9.0%
7.1.3 Agent
Another important piece of information the display shows is the type of anesthetic agent that is in the bubbling chamber (Figure 7-5). The
system recognizes this automatically according to the ANESTHETIC AGENT INDICATOR PIN position. To access the type of anesthetic
agent, press the AGENT key.
Figure 7-5: ANESTHETIC AGENT presentation screen

7.2 Messages
The display may show two messages:
7.2.1 NO DILUENT FLOW
This means there is no TOTAL FLOW regulated by the Rotameter; therefore, the Dilumatic safety system will stop the vaporization. This
message will be shown at the bubbling flow site (Figure 7-6).
Figure 7-6: NO DILUENT FLOW message
7.2.2 VAPORIZER WITHOUT CHAMBER!!!
This means that the Mini-Pinomatic Bubbling Chamber or ANESTHETIC AGENT INDICATOR PIN are not positioned precisely on their
respective housing areas, therefore, the microprocessed internal safety system will block vaporization. This message will be shown on the
central portion of the display (Figure 7-7).

3- Through the “DISPLAY” key (8-fv), select the desired CONCENTRATION versus BUBBLING FLOW table.
Warning
When there is a divergence between the indicator pin and the agent shown on the display, don’t use the
CONCENTRATION versus BUBBLING FLOW table as the values that are shown will not match the agent in the bubbling
chamber.
4- In the anesthesia device’s Rotameter, regulate the total gas flow to be used.
5- Set the bubbling flow button (6-fv) according to the desired concentration.
Warning
Changes made to the total fresh gas flow or to the anesthetic agent’s temperature inside the bubbling chamber will cause
changes to the concentration value that is being supplied. In this case, conveniently readjust the bubbling flow according to
the value shown in the CONCENTRATION versus BUBBLING FLOW table.
6- The anesthetic agent level in the bubbling chamber (5-fv) can be filled during anesthesia, according to the CHAMBER FILLING
procedure described above.
7- To stop the vaporization, completely close the bubbling flow control (6-fv).
8- Completely drain and dry the bubbling chamber (5-fv) for better Mini-Pinomatic chamber conservation (Item 9.4).
9.4 Chamber Draning

To drain the anesthetic liquid in the bubbling chamber totally or partially, follow the procedure below:
Attention
To collect the anesthetic agent, only use a flask destined specifically for the agent that is being discarded. The flask
must also be marked with the name of this agent.
1- Close the bubbling flow control button (6-fv).

2- Remove the Mini-Pinomatic bubbling chamber (5-fv) from its support (9-fv) on the right side of the Vaporizer.
3- Remove the funnel lid (5-fv).

Do not use abrasive or corrosive agents when cleaning.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROCESSING K. TAKAOKA MECHANICAL VENTILATION AND ANESTHESIA

EQUIPMENT COMPONENTS
The hospital accessories used in gas anesthesia and mechanical ventilation are classified as semi-critical, due to the potential risk they
pose for transmitting infection. Semi-critical articles are all those that come into contact with mucous membranes and are capable of
preventing invasion of the sub-epithelial tissue and which require high-level disinfection or sterilization to ensure quality in multiple-use
situations.
Choosing the processing method - disinfection or sterilization - depends on the nature of the materials. The TABLE shows the methods
recommended to process K. TAKAOKA anesthesia and mechanical ventilation equipment components, considering their composition and
technical specifications. The recommended methods are: cleaning, chemical disinfection, and gas or chemical sterilization. The processing
should be performed according to the step sequence shown in the following FLOWCHART.
CLEANING – A process that removes soil and organic matter from any surface or object. Cleaning is done by mechanical friction,
immersion, cleaning machines and ultra-sound machines. It is the most important step in decontamination; all items must be washed
before passing through any disinfection or sterilization process. No object should be sterilized if there is any organic matter (oil, fat,
blood...) on it. Cleaning should always be done with soap and water. When the immersion method is used, preferentially use an enzyme
detergent. Enzyme detergents have specific action on organic matter: they degrade and dissolve it in a matter of minutes. The objects
should remain immersed for 5 minutes.
DISINFECTION – A thermal or chemical process that eliminates all microorganisms, except for those with spores. There are three
disinfection categories: high, medium and low level.
HIGH LEVEL DISINFECTION – A process that eliminates all microorganisms except a large number of spores (bacteria, almost all fungi
spores, TB bacilli, viruses) after an exposure time of 10 to 30 minutes. Ex.: Glutaraldehyde immersion.
INTERMEDIATE LEVEL DISINFECTION – A process that inactivates vegetative bacteria, fungi, and almost all viruses, except spores.
Ex.: Mechanical friction with 70% Alcohol.
LOW LEVEL DISINFECTION – A process that inactivates the majority of bacteria, some fungi, some viruses, however does not affect
more resistant bacteria like TB bacilli or spores. Used only for surfaces. Ex.: Water and detergent – cleaning.
THERMAL DISINFECTION – A thermal process, which uses thermal disinfectant liquids against all plant forms, destroys some of the
spores when used at a temperature of between 60 and 90O C. This process is done in a thermal-disinfection unit, the machine that works
with two types of cycles for sensitive and resistant materials, using the appropriate detergent, one for sensitive materials and one for
resistant materials.
STERILIZATION – A process that completely eliminates or destroys all microorganisms (spores, bacteria, fungi and protozoa); it is
performed by physical processes (steam) or chemical processes (liquid – Glutaraldehyde, gaseous - ethylene oxide gas and plasma -
hydrogen peroxide). The spore is the most difficult microorganism to inactivate. Ex.: Autoclave, Hydrogen Peroxide, ethylene oxide,
Glutaraldehyde (exposure of the material for 10 hours).
Note:

Hydrogen peroxide (oxygenated water) is a sterilization process that takes place at a maximum temperature of 45ºC. Materials
that cannot be autoclaved can be sterilized with peroxide, except for those materials derived from cellulose.

11 MAINTENANCE
Correct preventive Vaporizer 1415 maintenance will guarantee it can be used accurately and safely for an extended period of time.
1- Carry out a periodical visual inspection of Vaporizer 1415. Should there be any apparent damage, do not use the device.
2- At least once a month inspect the condition of the plastic washer placed in Vaporizer 1415’s bubbling chamber funnel lid. If this
washer is damaged, take steps to have it replaced to prevent gas leakages during anesthesia.
3- If it is not possible to switch Vaporizer 1415’s electric components on normally, initially check:
If there is power in the electric output that feeds the Rotameter Block;
12-VDC cable integrity;
4- Periodically, check if the flowmeter spheres are moving freely along the entire length of their respective conical tubes and if they fall
to zero when the flow control is closed. If this does not happen, call K. TAKAOKA’S authorized Technical Assistance.
Attention
Only use genuine K. TAKAOKA replacement parts. Using parts that are not genuine may place the patient’s safety at
risk.
Do not perform any internal maintenance on the Vaporizer and do not open its case. For periodic service or to perform
any maintenance on the Vaporizer, call K. TAKAOKA’S authorized Technical Assistance.
