4.3 Important Advice for Storage
CAUTION
• Before being loaded, the unit must have reached the set point temperature.
• The load should only be stored in the provided baskets and should not exceed the storage areas. The
total amount of stored blood bags should be evenly distributed on the 5 baskets (max. 18 blood bags
per basket) (image 6). Do not overload the unit.
• Different blood or plasma types should be sorted and stored in a manner for the user to identify these
with ease.
• The loading must never obstruct the air-inlet-openings.
• Do not store warm items in the devices. They are not designed for fast cooling of warm items.
• Avoid long and / or frequent lid openings to prevent that the inner temperature rises to high.
• Make sure that the lid is correctly closed by using the supplied latches and that the lid gasket seals
correctly against the cabinet.
• Do not bring more than 18 new blood bags per day into the MRB3000SDD.
• The MRB3000SDD is designed as storage unit for blood bags. It is not designed for cool down. The bags
should therefore be precooled at less than +6°C before storing them in the MRB30000SDD.
• The maximum storage capacity of the MRB3000SDD is 40.5 L of blood (90 blood bags of 500ml filled
with 450ml each).
• Store the blood bags in upright position (image 5).
• The optimum storage place for newly inserted blood bags is in the upper right basket.
• To benefit from the maximum daily runtime of the compressor, new blood bags should be brought into
the MRB3000SDD in the early morning at sun rise.
