SECTION 8 MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
If any component of the water treatment system is changed or replaced,
the user should conduct appropriate tests to ensure that the revised
system meets all standards to which it was initially tested.
NOTE:
All major components for the Portable MRO are stocked for emergency shipment.
8.1
MAINTAINING THE SYSTEM
1. AmeriWater has provided a Startup Log for the MRO system. This must be filled out
completely each time the system is used. The recorded information may be useful in
troubleshooting problems encountered with the MRO. Please see the Startup Log and
directions for use in Section 4.
2. The micron prefilter is a non-durable component, and will need to be exchanged
periodically (at no greater than 6 month intervals).
3. The MRO system will need to be disinfected regularly. The frequency is determined by
the usage of the system. If the MRO system is being used every day, it should be
disinfected monthly. If the system is being used on an "as needed" basis, with 1 or more
days between uses, then it should be “packed” in BioTrol or disinfected before each use.
4. Bacteria and L.A.L. (Limulus Amebocyte Lysate) testing is required monthly and AAMI
testing is required annually.
5. Selection of water equipment for dialysis is the responsibility of the dialysis physician. A
water sample should be sent to a lab yearly for a complete AAMI water analysis to ensure
that the product water meets AAMI standards.
6. MRO System product water quality is dependent on input water quality. Actual product
water quality may vary substantially from the value for specified input water. The
expected results for the user's water can only be verified on the basis of analysis of the
user's water. If there are variations in the input water or changes detected in the output
water, contact AmeriWater immediately.
7. Monitoring of the water bacteriology of the system following installation is the
responsibility of the user. Total viable microbial counts shall not exceed the AAMI
standard for bacterial colony forming units per milliliter (CFU/ML) or endotoxins measured
in endotoxin units (EU). See instructions for proper disinfection of the system in Section 5.
8. The accuracy of the Conductivity display should be verified with a calibrated, hand-held
meter at least annually. If the conductivity display is not within 5% of the hand-held meter
readings, the controller should be calibrated in accordance to the procedures in Section
6.5. Conductivity may also be verified each time an AAMI analysis is done by noting the
conductivity readings when the AAMI sample is drawn and verifying the reading with the
AAMI results.
