Service and Maintenance
SIGMA Manual Number 41019
Revision AA
-
DO NOT use phenolic-based cleaners or disinfectants; extended use
may cause damage to the keyboard, case and any other plastic
component of the SIGMA Spectrum.
-
DO NOT use spray or aerosol cleaners. A lint-free, foam-tipped swab
(Chemtronics FoamtipTM or Qosmedix® precision foam tip for
example) may be used in the tube channel.
-
Alcohols are flammable and should not be used for battery cleaning /
disinfection. Always use alcohol in a well-ventilated area.
-
When cleaning the battery pack, care should be taken to prevent
shorting of the pack’s exposed terminals.
-
Dispose of all cleaning/disinfectant materials per federal, state and
local regulations for infectious waste disposal.
To clean the pump:
1.
Turn the pump off and unplug the AC power adaptor from the power source.
2.
Place the pump in an upright position (keyhole release upward).
3.
Apply the compatible cleaning agent with a dampened cloth per the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions using appropriate dilution ratio.
Disinfectants should remain on the pump’s surface in an even, but not dripping, film for the
recommended contact time for the compatible cleaning agents.
4.
Open the pump’s door using a standard IV set’s slide clamp.
5.
Clean the speaker vent, power adaptor connector, door release, keyhole and pumping chan-
nel areas with soft swabs.
6.
Apply solutions sparingly to the swabs and wipe down the necessary areas.
Do not use rigid cleaning instruments or spray solutions directly on the pump and its acces-
sories.
NOTE:
For severe solution spills it is recommended that the standard battery/
wireless battery module be removed. The battery pack cavity area of the
pump may be cleaned by wiping down those regions with a dampened
cloth as described previously.
7.
Visually inspect the tubing channel and remove any foreign material. An obstructed set tub-
ing channel could cause accidental free flow.
8.
Subsequent disinfecting is recommended using the same application technique. Disinfec-
tants should remain on the pump surface in an even, but not dripping, film for the manu-
factures' recommended contact time. Wipe dry or air-dry after completion of contact time
period before pump reuse.
9.
Dispose of all cleaning materials (including the slide clamp) as required per facility proto-
col/biohazard policy.
