HARDWARE
ELEMENTS
The primary hardware elements of the CS5+ device consist of the centrifuge,
a peristaltic blood pump, pinch valves and various sensors.
Valves
There are three pinch valves (also referred to as
clamps
) which occlude the
three color-coded lines of the disposable set harness. The three color-coded
lines are attached to a tubing manifold which is inserted below the valve
slots. The manifold is held in place by a locking manifold latch.
In the automatic mode, the CS5+ device controls the opening and closing of
the valves. The function of each valve is as follows:
!
Red line valve: opens the pathway to the blood source, usually a res-
ervoir or extracorporeal circuit.
!
Yellow line valve: opens the pathway to the wash solution.
!
Blue line valve: opens the pathway to the reinfusion bag.
Note: The CS5+ tubing manifold is designed to fit onto the deck in only one
way. It cannot be loaded incorrectly.

Pump
Fluids are moved in and out of the centrifuge bowl by a 3-roller, occlusive
pump, capable of a flow rate of 1000 ml/min at its maximum speed.
