hook is found damaged or broken remove the pump from service.
Caution:
If a wrong line is selected the time until the pump goes into a pressure alarm
may be prolonged. Also a wrong delivery rate is possible.

Note:
During priming, all air and drop alarms are switched off.

Note:
At rates smaller 10 ml/h the detection of a closed roller clamp cannot always be
ensured due to physical reasons. A drop sensor may be used to avoid this risk.

be calculated when rate is entered. When time is entered, rate/doserate will
be calculated. Running arrows on the display and the green LED indicate that
the pump is infusing.

Handling with Intrafix® SafeSet
Note:
If Intrafix® SafeSet is used, VTBI is not required.
A unique airtight filter membrane acts as a barrier, protecting against air-in-line
situation. As the fluid level reaches the membrane, the upstream alarm will
occur and the pump stops delivery whereas no air will pass the AirStop filter.
For this reason a fast switch over to next container requires no aditionally
workload for priming.
In case of a "Check upstream" alarm, the upstream sensor detects an
underpressure situation in the IV set between the pump and the drip chamber.
Therefore check always if the roller clamp is open, if the line is kinked or if the
bag and/or drip chamber is empty.
Please do not start the pump again by not fixing the "Check upstream" alarm
situation.
If too many times, the pump is started without fixing the situation, the
