Tubing Harness
The processing set tubing harness contains four lines and a tubing manifold:
The red line connects to the unprocessed blood source.
The yellow line connects to the saline solution.
The blue line attaches to the RBC bag.
The tubing manifold holds the tubing in place in the pump module and
holds the clear tubing going to the centrifuge.
All three color-coded lines pass through the pinch valves in the valve module.
The three colored lines combine into a single clear line as they leave the valve
module and enter the pump module.
The clear line passes through the pump, air detector, and valve module and
enters the centrifuge well. Inside the well, the line connects to the inlet port of
the bowl.
