LifePak PIP-Trouble Shooting

PIP Delivered Energy

Connect the paddles to the energy meter electrodes. Refer to Table 3-2 and confirm that the delivered energy is within tolerances for each energy level.

Table 3-2 Delivered Energy Tolerances

PIP Leakage Current

Check leakage current in accordance with the following standards: AAMI/ANSI (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation/ American National Standards Institute) ES 1-1985, AAMI/ANSI DF2-1989, CSA (Canadian Standards Association) C22.2, IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) 601-1, IEC 601-2-4, and UL (Underwriters Laboratories) 544.

Because of the wide variety of Safety Analyzers that may be used for these tests, specific instructions are not provided in this PIP. Refer to your Safety Analyzer operator's manual for instructions about configuring and performing these tests. The maximum allowable leakage current is summarized in Table 3—3 for 12OVac, 60Hz, and in Table 3—4 for 230Vac, 50Hz. When measuring ground resistance for the leakage current tests, connect the ohmmeter between the rear panel ground stud and the ground pin on the ac power connector as shown in Figure 3—6.
