MAINTENANCE
Check-In tests are recommended prior to clinical use. When a
test requires a primed cassette, it is recommended that clean tap
water be used for such tests. If any of the functions are not as
described in the check procedures, then the instrument requires
service. Please call ALARIS Medical Systems® Customer Service
at 800-482-4822 or refer to qualified Biomedical technician.
Note:
Upon completion of Check-In tests, reset the following:
Volume Remaining, Time and Rate.
Electrical Safety Test
Equipment Required:
This checks the ground continuity and leakage current of the AC
adapter/instrument, and can only be performed with the AC
adapter connected to the instrument.
Note:
The pole clamp is isolated from the internal electronics and,
therefore, is not grounded. It should not be used while performing
the electrical safety test.
To perform Electrical Safety Test:
1.
Refer to the operation manual for the electrical safety tester
for the proper setup and measurement technique.
2.
Connect the AC adapter to the instrument.
3.
Plug the AC adapter into the electrical safety tester.
4.
Measure the ground continuity and leakage current. Any
point of an instrument with an aluminum chassis can be
used for testing. A black coated chassis can only be tested
at the uncoated test point, located toward the back of the
chassis under the lower housing. Verify the following:
• Ground continuity not to exceed 0.1 ohm.
• Leakage current not to exceed 100µA.
Check-In Tests
For proper grounding, the AC
adapter must always be connected to
a three-wire outlet. Never operate the
MedSystem III® instrument from a
two-wire, ungrounded outlet.
WARNING
Do not perform any of the following
tests while the instrument is in use on
a patient. Review all precautions in
the Directions for Use before
performing these tests.
