4.5.2 Displaying the Ice Block Size
This function can be used to check the set and actual size of the ice blocks for the
patient and cardioplegia water circuit.
NOTE
Reducing the ice block size for patient warming over several hours
If ice formation and patient warming operate in parallel for several hours, it may
result in severe ice formation in the patient water circuit tank. In this case, you
should reduce the setpoint ice block size for the patient water circuit or
deactivate the setpoint ice block size completely (⇨ "Changing the Setpoint Ice
Block Size", page 61)
NOTE
The displayed ice block size may deviate from the actual ice size. Open the tank
cover and check the actual ice size visually.
