should also be performed whenever the operator suspects that the device is not functioning properly or
following mass deployment and before the device is returned to storage. If the device fails the PMC it
should be maintained by a certified Impact service technician in the field or at Impact authorized service
locations. A secure record of PMC results should be maintained for devices not returned to Impact for
maintenance.
Impact’s 731 series service tool the RCS is needed to perform the PMC and reset the ‘performance

trained and certified biomedical technicians. Alternatively, 731 series can be sent to an Impact authorized
service center for PMC or other service requirements.
In addition to automating and documenting the PMC process, the RCS is also capable of calibrating the
device and installing and verifying software upgrades and updates to the 731 series of devices.
If you would like to return the ventilator to Impact for service please contact Impact prior to returning this
instrument. (Telephone 973.882.1212, email

number (RGA #) will be issued. The RGA # must appear on both the packing slip and address label. This will
facilitate better tracking of the returned item and result in improved scheduling and handling.
