Einleitung

Step-by-step guide to take apart and clean absorber and bellows assembly for an ULCO Integrus PSV ventilator.

To begin, make sure the ventilator is turned off and unplugged.

These should be cleaned each day that the ventilator is in use (usually at the end of the day).

NOTE: Screw types and lengths are not specified in manuals
