OPERATING TEMPERATURES, FLOW AND OVER-TEMPERATURE SAFETY CIRCUIT CHECK
This section provides a complete check of all T/Pump functions. Refer to Functional Check and Safety Inspection
Form to record test data. Follow the steps in this section carefully, paying particular attention to each step, and its
expected result. If at any time the expected result can not be verified, press the On/Standby button to stop the test,
then restart the procedure. If after a second attempt the expected result can not be verified, press the On/Standby
button to stop the test, then unplug the T/Pump and call your dealer or Stryker’s Technical Service Department for
assistance.
PHYSICAL CONDITION CHECK
1. Examine the plug and line cord along its entire length for physical damage, such as cuts or cracked insulation. A
damaged line cord should be replaced rather than repaired. Check the quality of the strain relief of the line cord.
2. Examine membrane panel for cuts or cracks. If damaged, replace.
3. Visually inspect pump. Check for cracked or damaged plastic parts.
Be sure unit is unplugged.
Remove four (4) screws securing upper housings to tray. (reference #13 Parts Illustra-
tion - (1) screw by power cord, (1) screw by hose strap and (2) screws in front corners). Perform visual inspection
of all internal parts. Remove any accumulated dirt with a vacuum cleaner or compressed air hose.
4. Check connectors for cracks, missing O rings, or other damage. Replace connectors if necessary.
FLOW & OPERATING TEMPERATURE TEST
Note
: Stay present for the full duration of the test to observe all readings and to prevent damage to the T/Pump.
Perform this test on a fully assembled unit.
1.
Connect the T/Pump to the TPT9 and Mul•T•Pad as shown in Figure 9a, 9b. Un-kink the pad and hose. Open
the hose clamps.
2. Open the fill cap on top of the pump.
3. Fill with room temperature water to the
Heating
water line.
4. Plug the T/Pump into a properly grounded Hospital Grade receptacle.
The T/Pump performs its self test of the lights and audible alarm, with light pattern and short audible beep.
The T/Pump goes to Standby mode with only the
Standby
light on.
5. Press the
On/Standby
button.
6. Set the temperature to 107ºF (42ºC). For TP700 Series pumps, select Continuous Therapy Mode. Allow
temperature to stabilize. Stabilization is indicated by a steady (not flashing) light at the temperature setpoint.
7. After stabilization, allow 5 minutes before proceeding. The T/Pump controls to 107°F (42°C) at the inlet to the pad
for the duration of the test.
8. On the TPT9, take a temperature reading every 1/2 minute for 5 minutes, average the 10 readings and record the
flow reading from the TPT9. Verify the average temperature is at 107°F +/- 2°F (42ºC+/-1°C) and flow is 7 gph
(26.5 lph) minimum.
Note
: If the T/Pump does not reach the temperature and flow, press the
On/Standby
button, unplug the unit,
check the pad and hoses for kinks and start over.
9. Press the On/Standby button and unplug the unit.
Note: If at any time the Function test needs to be stopped, press the
On/Stanby
button.
