Flight Medical Flight 60 and 60T Ventilators — Model Service
Platform, OVP, maintenance, fault-finding and return to service on the Flight 60 and Flight 60T in SL, DL and iO2 versions
A model course for engineers who have passed Ventilator Service — Level 1, and ideally Level 2. It takes the Flight 60 with its piston manifold and the Flight 60T with its blower apart on paper: the gas path, the three oxygen arrangements, the boards and the power section; the power-on self-test, the circuit test and every step of the Operational Verification Procedure with analyser, test lung and resistors; the hour and calendar limits, filters, sensors and batteries; fault-finding from the error table to the faulty module; and repair with the right calibrations, software handled correctly, electrical safety and a complete record. Independent course: not affiliated with or endorsed by Flight Medical Innovations. Flight Medical and Flight 60 are trademarks of their owner; other names are trademarks of their respective owners.
You know how a ventilator works. This course is about how this one is checked, kept and fixed.
- Flight 60 and 60T units turn up in wards, transport and home care, and engineers meet them with a generic ventilator background, two similar manuals and no idea which differences matter.
- Typical calls end with a solenoid, a main board or a gas source ordered while the real cause was a worn diaphragm, a loose silicone tube, a clogged inlet filter, a flat battery after storage or the wrong resistor on the bench.
- After a repair the calibrations from the test table are skipped, the serial numbers and hours are not restored, the earth is not tested and the ventilator goes back to the patient on a circuit test alone.
After the course you can
Curriculum
Identify which Flight 60 or 60T variant is on the bench, trace the gas path from the intake filter to the patient connector, name the boards and assemblies that do each job, and know what to record before you open the case.free
22 min02Checks: power-on self-test, circuit test and the Operational Verification Procedure with analyser and test lung
Run the Flight 60 and 60T checks in the right order, set up the analyser, test lung and resistors as the manufacturer specifies, and read each OVP step for what it proves about the machine.23 min03Maintenance: manifold and blower life, filters, oxygen and leak sensors, batteries, cleaning and records
Plan and carry out scheduled maintenance on a Flight 60 or 60T fleet by hours and by calendar, replace the life-limited parts the manual names, keep reprocessing from damaging the machine, and leave a record that shows trends.20 min04Troubleshooting: message groups, pneumatic and leak faults, sensors, power and batteries, display and communication
Take a Flight 60 or 60T from a displayed message or a complaint to the faulty part, using the log files, the built-in calibrations and the OVP steps as diagnostic tools, and replace only what the evidence points at.24 min05Repair and return to service: module replacement, calibrations, software, verification, electrical safety and the record
Replace Flight 60 and 60T modules at procedure level without creating new faults, run the calibrations the manufacturer assigns to each replacement, handle software and configuration correctly, and release the ventilator only after the full OVP, an electrical safety test and a complete record.24 min—Exam

FAQ
Is this Flight Medical training?
No. It is an independent course, not affiliated with or endorsed by Flight Medical Innovations. Flight Medical and Flight 60 are trademarks of their owner, and other names are trademarks of their respective owners. The course does not replace the manufacturer's procedures and does not grant authorisation, access codes or service software.
Do I need the service manual?
Yes. You should have the manufacturer's service manual and operator's manual for the model and software you work on. The course explains and orders the work; the exact procedures, acceptance values, test table and part numbers come from the documentation for your revision.
Does it cover both the Flight 60 and the Flight 60T?
Yes, in their SL, DL and iO2 versions, as described in the Flight 60 service manual LIT-0021 and the Flight 60T service manual LIT-0113. Where the two differ, for example piston manifold against blower or volume factor against bias flow, the course says so.
Does it cover software upgrades, service access and options?
Only at procedure level: who may do it, what to back up and what to check before and after. Service codes, option activation and the steps themselves are the manufacturer's and are done by authorised personnel with the proper media.
What does the certificate say?
Flight Medical Flight 60 and 60T Ventilators — Model Service (Endorsement), with your name, the hours, the date and your exam score, a unique number and a public verification page.
Can my company buy seats for a team?
Yes: five seats and a progress overview for the manager.
