Instructions For Use
Preparation and Setup of the Ranger Irrigation Fluid Warming Unit
1. Attach the Ranger irrigation fluid warming unit to the I.V. pole. Tighten the pole clamp securely.
CAUTION:
To prevent tipping, clamp the Ranger irrigation fluid warming
unit to an I.V. pole with a minimum 14" (35.6 cm) radius
wheelbase and at a height no higher than 44" (112 cm). Failure
to do so may result in damage to the product (see Figure 1).
2. Slide the irrigation cassette into the slot in the warming
unit. The cassette can only fit into the device one way
(see Figure 2).
3. Prime the warming set. For more information about
priming the set, refer to instructions provided with the
warming sets.
4. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet. Turn the
unit ON. In a few seconds the alpha-numeric display
will illuminate. It takes less than 2 minutes to warm up
to the 41
°
C set point temperature.
5. Begin flow. When flow is completed, remove the
warming set and discard according to institutional
protocol.
Removing the Irrigation Fluid Warming Set from
the Ranger Irrigation Fluid Warming Unit
1. Close the inlet clamp proximal to the fluid warming
cassette and open all clamps distal to the cassette.
2. Disconnect the warming set from the fluid source, if
applicable.
3. Allow a small amount of fluid to drain from the end of
the patient line to reduce pressure in the cassette.
4. Remove the warming set from the warming unit and
discard according to institutional protocol.
