Occlusion Detection Pressure
The occlusion detection pressure can be set in 10 levels.
Setting

± 40 kPa
9
± 110 kPa
5
± 50 kPa
10
± 120 kPa
Warning
• After the occlusion detection pressure is selected, check that the setting has been adjusted correctly.
Notes
• If using on “Level 10”, the pressure of an infusion line increases at occlusion, possibly resulting in the syringe connection etc.
being disconnected. Periodically check that the connection of the infusion line is secured.
• If using on “Level 1”, an Occlusion alarm is frequently issued, especially when using a drug solution with high viscosity, possibly
resulting in solution delivery being interrupted. In such cases, review the set value of the occlusion pressure by using the graph
of the history of occlusion pressure value as a guide.
• When an Occlusion alarm is issued, the occlusion icon
may not reach the orange level (more than 75%) for the following
reasons:
(1) When the bolus reduction function is activated in order to mitigate the occlusion status
(2) When the syringe is fully pressed (stopped after the Nearly Empty alarm or an internal pressure equivalent to the set “Level
4” occlusion pressure value is detected)
* After an Occlusion alarm is issued internal pressure may build up even if the occlusion icon has not turned orange.
• Use the occlusion icon
as follows:
(1) To check the in-line pressure when using a small syringe and a small diameter administration set and/or infusing a highly
viscous solution.
(2) To make sure the infusion line has been opened.
