Introduction
1 Introduction
1.1 General introduction
Volumat Agilia is the volumetric pump of the Agilia range, our generation of intuitive and
easy to learn infusion devices.
Thanks to its various programming modes, infusion modes, customisation capabilities and an
extensive sets range,
Volumat Agilia can be used in any units of the hospital: general wards,
paediatry, critical care, oncology....
Volumat Agilia can be:
 Used as a stand alone device thanks to the mounted "swinglock" clamp that allows its
fixation on a rail or a pole.
 Stacked together with other Agilia devices thanks to its integrated locking system allowing
three Volumat Agilia pumps to be stacked on top of one another to facilitate transportation.
Easy to carry, Volumat Agilia is ideal for transporting patients.
The similar user interface across the entire Agilia range facilitates the acquisition of
confidence in all the Agilia devices and reduces the time needed for training and
maintenance.
Volumat Agilia can be programmed in three different modes:
 No drug name,
 Drug labelling,
 Vigilant Drug'Lib.
The drop detector is optional. Volumat Agilia has got a patented auto-test called "OCS test"
(Occlusivity Check System) that checks the correct working order of the pump in association
with its administration set, thus preventing any risk of free flow.
Volumat Agilia works with the Volumat Lines : these dedicated sets are equipped with a
silicone pumping segment and a SafeClip that automatically clamps the line to avoid any risk
of free-flow when the door is opened.
Volumat Agilia has its own control keyboard and a LCD screen. It has an internal battery
which ensures a minimum battery life of 8 hours for a flow rate of 125ml/h.
Volumat Agilia has a range of flow rates from 1 to 1200mL/h in macro mode and from 0.1 to
100ml/h in micro mode.
Volumat Agilia is fitted with an infrared cell at the back. Fresenius Kabi also offers a Link
+
Agilia rack system enabling several Agilia pumps to communicate to a communications
system via the infrared cell and Link
