Figure 10-10 Empty Phase of the Processing Screen
For a detailed explanation of the
Empty phase screen, read
“Empty Screen” on page 5-41.
The volume of the blood transferred from the bowl is displayed on the processing displet and
constantly updated by the system’s software. The empty speed can be adjusted from the processing
displet (from 25 ml/min to 1,000 ml/min).
When the bowl empties, the cycle has completed, the pump stops, and the Ready Screen is displayed.
Note: If, for any reason, you need to stop a cycle before it has completed, please refer to “Stop
Button” on page 5-55.
After the air sensor detects that the bowl has been emptied and the Empty cycle has been completed,
you may repeat the procedure as directed or terminate sequestration processing and convert the
system for intraoperative blood recovery (see “Finishing Preoperative Separation and Preparing for
Blood Recovery” on page 10-19).
8. To begin another processing cycle, maybe using a different protocol, repeat the process from
Step 1 on page 10-11. Otherwise, to end the current case, touch the “End Case” button.
Ending the current case will display the End of Case Screen. Follow the instructions in the section
“Ending the Current Case” on page 5-14 to start a new case, or unload the pump loop and shut down
the system.
CAUTION
Air must be collected and be available to be returned to the centrifuge bowl
during the Empty cycle. Otherwise, plasma may be accidentally drawn back
into the centrifuge bowl. Ensure that the bag with the air remains attached to
the bowl outlet tubing and OPEN during the Empty cycle.
