Puritan Bennett 560 Inlet Air Filter Replacement

Introduction

This guide shows the steps for removing and replacing the inlet air filter in the Puritan Bennett 560 Ventilator.

Warnings:

• Check the cleanliness of the inlet air filter located on the rear of the ventilator and replace it if necessary. It is recommended that you check or replace this filter at least once per month. When the ventilator is installed on a wheelchair, the environmental conditions may cause the filter to become dirty more rapidly.

• Failure to replace a dirty inlet air filter or operating the ventilator without a filter may damage the ventilator.

• The inlet air filter is not reusable. Do not attempt to wash, clean, or reuse it.

The repair information is also available on pages 139-140 (Section 5, Pages 9-10) of the Service Manual that is linked in the documents section.
