The degassing bypass valve VEB, pressure sensor PE, degassing chamber EK and
degassing pump EP produce and measure a negative pressure respectively. The
negative pressure is produced to separate the dissolved gas from the water.
If the degassing bypass valve VEB is closed, the flow path is reduced by means
of a bypass constriction (orifice, throttle principle) in the valve. VEB is opened
during disinfection to avoid this constriction. The desired negative pressure is
gained by controlling the degassing pump EP. The value of the negative
pressure is approx. -500 mmHg and thus always higher than the lower pressure
of the dialysate behind the dialyser. The degassing pump works with constant
speed, which is determined by the dialysate flow, unless the negative pressure
is insufficient. Then the speed of EP is increased.

The heater H has an integrated thermal fuse TSH as a thermal cut-off. The
temperature sensor TSE measures the actual temperature at the outlet of the
heating.

Fig. : Degassing Circuit with Temperature System
The required heat output is determined with the temperature
sensors TSE and TSHE.
A detailed description for the double-stage heater control is
described in the paragraph for the switch mode power supply
microcontroller SMPS-MC.
