Routine Maintenance Procedure
As per Hospital Policy
Thoroughly clean external surfaces of the Pump before and after prolonged period of
storage.
At least once per year
(Refer to TSM for identification of parts)
1. Inspect AC power supply plug and cable for damage.
2. Perform functional tests as outlined in the Technical Service Manual.
3. Operate the pump on battery power until the battery low alarm then charge the battery
to confirm battery operation and charging.
4. Inspect mechanism for damage or excessive wear. Clean and lubricate the mechanism as

If the pump is dropped, damaged, subjected to excessive moisture or high temperature, immediately take it out of
service for examination by a qualified service engineer.
All preventative and corrective maintenance and all such activities shall be performed at a compliant work place
in accordance with the information supplied. CareFusion will not be responsible should any of these actions
be performed outside the instructions or information supplied by CareFusion. For Preventative and Corrective

Please refer to Technical Service Manual for calibration procedures. The units of measurement used in the
calibration procedure are standard SI units (The International System of Units).
Battery Operation
The internal rechargeable battery allows continued operation when the AC power is unavailable, for example during patient transfer or
AC power failure. A fully charged battery will provide a minimum of 6 hours of operation at 125ml/h infusion rate. When connected to
the AC power supply for 24 hours, (whether the pump is in use or not) a battery pack will be fully charged.
The battery is maintenance free, sealed Lead Acid and requires no routine servicing. However, to achieve optimum operation, ensure
that the battery is fully recharged after full discharge, before storage, and at regular 3 month intervals during storage.
Charge retention will eventually degrade. Where retention is critical the internal battery should be replaced every 3 years.
It is recommended that only a qualified service engineer replaces the battery. For further information regarding the replacement of
batteries refer to the Technical Service Manual.
