5.5 Connecting the Irrigation Fluid Bags
DANGER!
The device is only intended for use with flexible fluid containers. Do not use glass
containers as they might break. Fluid cannot flow quickly enough due to the vac-
uum being generated inside of the bottle. Risk of implosion.
The irrigation fluid bags should be suspended at a height of h between 0.7-1.0 m
above the pump (Abb. 5-5 "Hanging the irrigation fluid bags") (pump inflow at
center of fluid level in bag).
1. The inflow tube can take irrigation fluid from two fluid bags (1). Close both
clamps (3) at the branches of the inflow tube.
2. Grasp the tap spike/Care-Lock® connector (2) at the provided handle when
connecting or disconnecting.
3. Comply with sterile precautions when inserting the tap spike (or Care-Lock®
connector) into a bag.
4. Open at least one tube clamp (3) at the irrigation tube.
5.6 Irrigation
The device is designed to work with an instrument featuring a trumpet valve or
stopcock. Make sure tube set and instrument are completely filled with fluid. Fill
with fluid until the air is completely removed from the tube and instrument.
1. Insert the tube set (see chapter 5.4 "Inserting a Tube Set").
2. Connect the irrigation fluid bag (see chapter 5.5 "Connecting the Irrigation
Fluid Bags").
3. Connect the instrument tube to the instrument.
Close stopcock if using instrument with stopcock.
4. Press the irrigation start/stop key (LED lights up).
An admission pressure of 400 mmHg is generated in the tube. This admission
pressure is necessary to provide the full irrigation volume/output.
5. Start irrigating wash:
Operate the trumpet valve or open the stopcock.
6. Stopping the irrigation process:
Release the trumpet valve or close the stopcock.
The admission pressure begins to be rebuilt so that the full irrigation volume/
output is available for the next irrigation procedure.
