34 The Installation guide 

This document describes when and how to install Multi-zone ART Workstation in the IVF 
clinic. 

34.1 Responsibilities 

All technicians or embryologists installing the Multi-zone ART Workstation must identify 
problems and perform any necessary calibrations, adjustments and maintenance. 
 
All  individuals  who  will  perform  installation,  repair  and/or  maintenance  of  the 
instrument must be trained by Esco Medical or a qualified training center. Experienced 
service  technicians  or  embryologists  conduct  training  to  ensure  that  the  installation 
personnel  clearly  understand  the  instrument's  functions,  performance,  testing,  and 
maintenance. 
 
Installation  personnel  must  be  updated  regarding  alterations  or  additions  to  this 
document and the "Installation report" form. 

34.2 Before installation 

 3 weeks before the installation due, the user/owner at the clinic is contacted via e-

mail to plan the exact time to perform the installation. When a convenient time has been 
determined, travel and accommodation arrangements can be made. 
 
The released Multi-zone ART Workstation must be sent 1 

 3 weeks before installation, 

depending on the clinic location. Check with shippers about local customs regulations and 
delays that could arise from that. 
 
The clinic must be informed about the site requirements before installation and should 
have signed the customer requirement checklist: 
 

1.

 

The lab must have an open and flat lab floor space for standing operation. 

2.

 

The weight of the 4-ft Multi-zone ART Workstation is 225 kg, and the 6-ft is 345 
kg.

 

3.

 

The required space for placement is provided in the "27 Specifications" section 
tables. 

4.

 

Temperature control should be able to maintain a stable temperature, never ex-
ceeding 30 °C. 

5.

 

Uninterrupted power supply (UPS) with 115 or 230 V, minimum 120 W. 

6.

 

Proper grounding. 

7.

 

Premixed and CO

2

 gas outlet with 0.6 

 1.0 atm above ambient.
