Product Description
A complete Ohio Medical Corporation ® Medical Gas Outlet is made up of two separate components, the ''Back-Body Assembly'' and the 'Latch-Valve Mechanism'. The 'BackBody Assembly' is designed to be unique to each speciÞ c gas but is interchangeable within all 'same-gas' outlet types (D.I.S.S., Ohmeda ® , Puritan-Bennett ® or Chemetron ® compatibles).
The gas speciÞ c 'Back-Body Assembly' includes a check valve that permits removal of the 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' for service without requiring the pipeline to be shut down.
A 6' long, 3/8' nom. dia. medical gas copper tube, per NFPA ® speciÞ cations, is brazed into the body for external pipeline connections. The 'Back-Body Assembly' is marked with color-coded labeling on the front plate and on the copper pipe so that the installer can easily identify the correct gas when making the installation. The Ohio Medical Corporation ® Medical Gas Outlet is designed with a gas-speciÞ c dual pin indexing arrangement to prevent an incorrect gas 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' from being installed into a 'Back-Body Assembly'.
Ohio Medical Corporation ® Medical Gas Outlets (Wall and Ceiling styles only) may be ganged together in 5' [127mm] center to center assemblies providing one attractive module of all medical gases without the additional expense of a headwall or console.
It is the 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' which determines which type of adapter that the completed outlet assembly will accept. The 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' is available in four different offerings; D.I.S.S. Type, Quick-Connect Ohmeda ® Compatible, Puritan-Bennett ® Compatible and Quick-Connect Chemetron ® Compatible. The 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' consists of a connector with an internal check valve, an indexing assembly and a colorcoded gas speciÞ c front plate. A trim plate is also included for wall and ceiling outlets. The 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' is designed and manufactured so that its gas speciÞ c characteristics cannot be altered during normal use, service or maintenance. The 'LatchValve Mechanism' is inserted into the 'Back-Body Assembly' and secured with plated steel screws to complete the outlet assembly.
The Quick-Connect models are compatible with Ohmeda Diamond, Puritan-Bennett or Chemetron Quick-Connect adapters and only the correct corresponding gas type of adapters can be used with the Quick-Connect outlets.
Since the 'Back-Body Assembly' is the same for all types of 'Latch-valve Mechanisms' of the same gas, the Ohio Medical Corporation Medical Gas Outlets can easily be converted from one adapter type to another by simply replacing the 'Latch-Valve Mechanism'.

NOTES:
- Do not cover over the Back-Body Assembly during the drywall and plaster application. Ensure that the clear plastic cover over the Back-Body Assembly is securely in place until the 'Latch-Valve Mechanism' can be installed.
- For W.A.G.D. (Evacuation) and vacuum gases, a round tubing plug and a plug retainer plate are installed on the Back-Body Assembly since a secondary check valve does not exist for these gases. Do not remove these components until the latch valve mechanism is to be installed.
