ALARM TESTING PROCEDURE (Continued)
Occlusion Alarm Test
1.
Program a primary infusion rate for 200 ml/h and VTBI
for 50ml.
2.
Press the
RUN/STOP
key to start the infusion.
3.
Close the roller clamp on the administration set located
directly at the distal side of the pump.
4.
After a few seconds, the infusion status indicator will
turn blinking red, audio alarm will sound, and the Main
Display will show alarm screen with “Occlusion”. The
infusion will stop.
5.
Press the
RUN/STOP
key to acknowledge the alarm
condition. The Z-800F Pump will be in PAUSE state.
The “PAUSE” message will appear on the screen.
6.
Open the roller clamp to release pressure. Press the
RUN/STOP
key again to resume infusion.
Time Delay to Occlusion
The maximum time for activation of the downstream
occlusion alarm at the minimum flow rate of 1ml/hr is
around 5 minutes at the minimum occlusion threshold
setting. It is more than 1 hour at the maximum occlusion
alarm threshold setting.
The maximum time for activation of the downstream
occlusion alarm at the intermediate flow rate of 25ml/hr is
around 20 seconds at the minimum occlusion threshold
setting. It is around 3 minutes at the maximum occlusion
alarm threshold setting.
Occlusion Bolus Volume
The maximum bolus volume generated as a result of
operation at 25 ml/hr and reaching the minimum
downstream occlusion alarm threshold is 0.25ml.
The maximum bolus volume generated as a result of
operation at 25 ml/hr and reaching the maximum
downstream occlusion alarm threshold is 0.8mL.
Note:
At slower infusion
rates, the occlusion alarm
may take longer to
trigger.
