Dräger Primus Anaesthetic Workstation Technical Documentation Service Manual PDF

Description

📘 Dräger Primus Anaesthetic Workstation — Technical Documentation (Service Manual)

This is the factory technical documentation for the Dräger Primus Anaesthetic Workstation, built for qualified service technicians. It explains how the Primus is designed and how to maintain key systems—ventilation, gas mixing, patient gas measurement (PGM/PGM2), electronics/CAN communication, and the UPS/power pack—with diagrams, operating modes, and service procedures.

✅ What you’ll be able to do with this manual

• Understand the full Primus component structure (GUI/MoBi, Mixer, VGC, Power Pack, PGM/PGM2, Neutral Point PCB)

• Follow detailed maintenance procedures (filters, batteries, seals, pressure regulators, PCB battery replacement)

• Reference pneumatic layouts, schematics, and block diagrams for accurate troubleshooting

• Work with multiple configurations like PGM vs PGM2 and software version 2.n+ ventilation modes
