SECULIFE IF+ Gossen Metrawatt SECULIFE IF+ INFUSION PUMP ANALYZER The SECULIFE IF+ is a Microprocessor based High Precision infusion Pump Analyzer (IPA). It tests the flow rate of intravenous (I.V.) infusion pumps. The flow rates are displayed in milliliters per hour. The unit can test two volumetric pumps for output flow rate simultaneously using two volumetric chambers. The following are highlights of some of the main features.

SECULIFE IF+ SCREENS MAIN SCREENS – There are four main screens: Chamber 1, Chamber 2, DUAL and Connector. The available screens can be toggled using . CHAMBER SCREENS – The Chamber screens have a large time and flow rate display, as shown below. The arrow at the top of the screen indicates the connector used for that Chamber. The level indicator at the bottom of the screen identifies the level of water in the Chamber.
SECULIFE IF+ DUAL SCREEN – The DUAL screen shows the status of both Chambers at the same time.

SECULIFE IF+ MESSAGES Several status messages are available to indicate the present state of the system. The following is a brief description of the available messages: CHAMBER NOT DETECTED – This message indicates that a Chamber has not been detected. READY FOR FLOW– This message indicates that the Chamber is reset and waiting for fluid to be detected at the bottom sensor. As soon as fluid is detected, the timer will begin running and the test will begin.
SECULIFE IF+ LEVEL INDICATOR A special graphic has been incorporated into the display to identify the level of water in each Chamber. The graphic is located at the lower right corner of the display for each channel. This graphic indicates that water is not present at the lower or upper sensor. This graphic indicates that fluid is present at the lower sensor. These graphics are displayed sequentially to indicate that a test is running.
SECULIFE IF+ SETUP The Setup Mode allows the user to adjust the configuration of the meter. The Setup screen can be entered using the line and key. The parameters can be changed by using key to highlight the to toggle the available options. The Setup screen can be exited using the key.
SECULIFE IF+ OPERATIONS CONNECTING CHAMBERS Chambers are connected to the base unit with a straight through 8Pin Mini Din male to 8Pin Mini Din Male cable. Chambers can be connected or disconnected at any time. Disconnecting a chamber while a test is running will cancel the test. As a chamber is connected or disconnected, the display will change to display the available chambers.
SECULIFE IF+ THEORY OF OPERATIONS Infrared sensors are used to detect the presence of water in the chamber. There are two sensors in each chamber. As water is detected at the bottom sensor, an internal timer is started. The timer runs internally in hundredths of seconds but is only displayed in tenths of seconds. The test automatically ends when water is detected at the top sensor. A buzzer will sound to indicate that the test is complete.
SECULIFE IF+ RUNNING A TEST To run a flow test, the chamber must be Ready for Flow, as indicated in the base unit display (see Messages). When the base unit is setup for Manual Reset, the key must be used to manually reset the unit after each test. When the base unit is setup for Automatic Reset, the chamber will be automatically reset when the water level drops below the bottom sensor. A flow test can be started whenever the display indicates “Ready for Flow”.
SECULIFE IF+ OPTIMIZING MEASUREMENTS To optimize the performance of the SECULIFE IF+, it is recommended that a wetting agent be used to minimize the surface tension of the test solution. The test solution should be Distilled water mixed with “MICRO-90.” “MICRO-90” can be purchased from Cole- Parmer in a 1% solution (Part Number A18100-01, www.coleparmer.com, 1-800-323-4340). Further dilute the “MICRO –90” by using one part of “MICRO-90” to 10 parts of Distilled water.
