FLO-GARD 6301 DUAL CHANNEL VOLUMETRIC INFUSION PUMP SERVICE MANUAL 07-19-B1-729
One-Hour Accuracy Test
Note: Perform this test if the pump fails tests “Measurement by volume per time” on
page 10-13 or “Measurement incorporating VTBI option” on page 10-13.
Note: Do NOT reuse a tubing segment that has already been used to conduct an
accuracy test.
1.
Connect the pump to AC power and power it on.
2.
Program a PRI RATE of 125 mL/hr with a PRI VTBI of 1000 mL.
3.
Place the distal end of the infusion set into a container of known weight.
4.
Simultaneously, start a timer and press the
START
key.
5.
Stop the pump 1 hour ±20 seconds later. Use a calibrated scale with a
resolution of 0.1 grams or better to weigh the container and solution.
Then, divide the solution weight by the specific gravity of the solution
(water’s specific gravity is 1 g/mL).
6.
The collected solution should be between 116.25 and 133.75 mL.
7.
If the volume of the collected solution is not between 116.25 and 133.75
mL, verify proper test technique. Refer to the information on Inaccurate
Delivery: Accuracy in Table 7-4.
Important
: Do not run this test again to improve results unless there is reason
to believe that the test technique was in error. Replace any pump head that
fails this test and be sure to clearly identify it as having failed the One-Hour
Accuracy Test.
