This error condition (referred to by Dräger as ‘Poti unplugged’) which could result in the ventilator stopping, is caused by an accumulation of an oxide layer in the potentiometer when these are rarely (or never) moved. The layer develops over time, but twisting the potentiometer knobs prevents this, as described in Dräger’s FSN that was sent to customers in 2015.Dräger have now issued software which enables the ventilation to continue with the last, valid parameters (and posts the corresponding alarms). Additionally, the new software prompts turning of the potentiometer knobs in the pre-use device check, so the issue should not occur.
