Ambix
activ
pump sets
The
activ
sets are specially designed for the
Ambix
activ
. Every set
includes a sophisticated particle/air filter which, in conjunction with the
air alarm sensor of the
Ambix
activ
, prevents air administration.
Downstream kink protection is also integrated to reduce the risk of kink
especially in ambulatory use. Free flow protection is provided by the
activ
clamp, an advanced second generation pinch clamp. This clamp
automatically closes when the pump door is opened, thereby preventing
free-flow. An integrated flow cap facilitates priming proceedings.
Information
Fresenius Kabi
recommends placing the container 50 cm
(± 10 cm) above the pump.
For further information about
activ
sets, please refer to the related
labelling on the
activ
sets.
Warning
In case of use of ASV (Anti syphoning valve), the pressure level may be
changed, see warning Section 1.9, page 8.
When set is out of the pump, ensure that the clamp is closed especially
when the container is placed above the injection site or that the set is
disconnected from the patient.
The
Ambix activ
is designed to operate exclusively with the
appropriate
Fresenius Kabi activ
sets including the patented
activ
clamp (see ordering information Section 11, page 55). The use of other
sets is prohibited and may endanger patient safety either through the
risk of air infusion, reduced flow rate accuracy or free-flow conditions.
For ordering information see Section 11, page 55.
