7. Wait until the coolant flow has stopped. Disconnect the drain line by
pressing down on the metal tab on the coupler. Gently pull out the drain
hose.
8. Dispose of the used coolant.
9. Clean the coolant well using distilled water. Do not use alcohol or any
harsh or abrasive cleansers.
10. Reconnect the drain hose as described in steps 4-7 and drain the liquid
used for cleaning. Dispose of the liquid.
11. Repeat this process while flushing the coolant well with distilled water.
12. When cleaning is complete, you may leave the coolant well empty (to
prepare it for shipment), or refill it with a 1:1 mixture of distilled water and
propylene glycol. Refer to
Preparation for First Use in Chapter 3 for
details.
13. Replace the cap on the coolant well.
14. Replace the drain hose in the clamp. Replace the front panel on the
console.
Spillage
Both saline and coolant are corrosive and electrically conductive. Although the
System is designed and tested to be in compliance with the spillage protection
requirements of ISO-60601, it is important to clean up spillage quickly:
1. To ensure a safe work environment. Spillage, especially of coolant, can
result in a very slippery floor.
2. To minimize the risk of corrosion or damage to the System.
Spillage is most likely under the following conditions:
1. During set-up of the Start-up Kit. Spillage of saline in this case should be
cleaned up as with the handling of any infusion fluid.
2. During filling or emptying of the coldwell. The coolant may be safely
wiped with paper towel and the towel disposed of in the standard trash.
Propylene-glycol:Water mix is slippery on sealed floors.
3. In the event of an air trap alarm. With any air-trap alarm, investigate to
see if there is spillage into the raceway. Remove the rotor and blot dry
the raceway and motor shaft.
