Wheels
The wheels can be locked to secure the cart in position. The right rear wheel
provides antistatic protection.
Reservoir
weigher
The reservoir weigher holds the collection reservoir, tracks the amount of fluid
in the reservoir, and communicates this information to the device. The reservoir
weigher contains a tubing support that supports the tubing exiting the top of the
reservoir.
For the first cycle, the device uses the preset value from calibration as a zero
value. In subsequent cycles, it continues to use this value until it detects air
during Fill. At that point, the system will tare the reservoir weigher, and the
current weight of the reservoir and contents will be considered zero. As a
result, any residual substances trapped in the filter when an air detect occurs
will not count towards the volume of the reservoir.
Note: The reservoir weigher ships with the Cell Saver Elite device but gets
mounted on the cart as shown in
.
Saline Hangers
The saline hangers hold the saline bags during the procedure.
Handle
The handle at the back should be used when moving the cart and enables you
to easily maneuver it around and over obstacles.
Processing Set
Tub Holder
The processing set tub holder extends to provide support for the processing set
tub during processing set installation.
Step Plate
The step plate enables the user to tilt the cart backwards slightly to pass over
thresholds or small obstacles. Place one foot on the step plate and press down
to tilt the cart backwards. Always hold onto the cart handle while tilting the cart
to maintain stability.
Removable
Bins
The removable storage bins provide convenient storage space for any items
related to the device or procedure.
