The Elite 615 is best known for its 3 gas 3/5 tube anesthesia delivery system and safety features.  It is a stainless steel machine that comes with integrated Anti-Hypoxic device gauges. These device gauges display and measure Air, O2, and N2O pressures of the pipeline and cylinders.  It also has a reservoir for storing Oxygen and N2O cut off.

The Elite 615 is available in both the United States and Australia. ULCO Medical was acquired by Mindray Medical in 2013 and since then has stopped the production of the Elite 615, but they have manufactured a range of other anesthesia delivery systems in the past. These include the ULCO Anesthetic Suitcase, a portable field anesthetic machine, and the ULCO Signet 615, which, similarly to the Elite 615, is a hospital grade standing anesthetic machine for children and adults.  The Elite 615 can be identified from the Signet 615 by the absence of a 5 tube backlit Rotameter.

== Troubleshooting ==

=== How do I attach the Emergency Oxygen Flush? ===

# Make sure that the Oxygen supply is ON
# Depress the flush button to check that the flow exists
# Connect a 2 Liter bag to the common gas outlet
# Depress the flush button
# Ensure that the bag fills within 3.5 seconds

=== How do I get the Flowmeters to work? ===

# Turn on the appropriate gas supply according to the label on the flowmeter tube.
# Rotate flow control valves anti-clockwise to open and check that the ball rotates freely
# Close the flow control valve and ensure that the bobbin or ball returns to the base of the flowmeter tube
# Repeat this procedure for each gas, turning off each gas supply after use

=== How do I reattach the Nitrous Oxide cylinder after replacing it? ===

# Connect nitrous oxide cylinder to yoke of pin index unit
# Check that nitrous oxide flow control valve is closed
# Turn on nitrous oxide cylinder and check relative gauge rise
# Turn off cylinder and check that the gauge pressure does not drop more than one division in a minute
# Turn cylinder OFF and check that the gauge does not drop more than one division in one minute. Should the gauge drop more than one division in one minute, locate the leak and repair.

=== Why isn’t the Nitrous Oxide circuit working? ===

It may be that the pipeline is attached incorrectly, the pressure is too low, or there is a leak.

# Check that nitrous oxide flowmeter flow control valve is closed
# Connect nitrous oxide pipeline hose to suitable supply and to the apparatus
# Check that pressure is 400kPa
# Turn off cylinder and check that the gauge pressure does not drop more than one division in a minute[br]

=== Why isn’t the Oxygen circuit working? ===

It may be that the circuit is not attached correctly or there is a leak.

# Connect the cylinder to the yoke of the pin-index unit
# Check that the oxygen flow control valve is closed (do not force in any direction)
# Turn cylinder ON and check contents gauge – do not use if less than half full
# Turn cylinder OFF and check that the gauge does not drop more than one division in one minute. Should the gauge drop more than one division in one minute, locate the leak and repair
# Ensure that no leaks are present around the cylinders main valve or Bodok seal
# Connect oxygen pipeline hose to suitable supply and to the apparatus
# Check that the pressure is 400kPa
# Check for leaks and repair leaks as they exist[br]
