Operating the Device

The fluid bags must be suspended at a height of h between 0.7 to 1.0 m above the

pump (Fig. 5-13 "Hanging the irrigation fluid bags") (pump inlet to the middle of

the fluid filling in the 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 (2) at the provided handle when connecting or discon-

necting.

3. Comply with sterile precautions when inserting the tap spike into the bag.

4. Open at least one tube clamp (3) at the irrigation tube.

5.9 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. Re-

move all air from tube and instrument.

1. Insert the tube set (see chapter 5.5 "Inserting a Standard Tube Set").

2. Connect the irrigation fluid bag (see chapter 5.8 "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 450 mmHg is generated in the tube. This admission

pressure is necessary to provide the full irrigation volume/output.

5. Start the irrigation process:

Actuate the trumpet valve or open the stopcock.

6. Stop the irrigation process:

Release the trumpet valve or open the stopcock.

The admission pressure begins to be rebuilt so that the full irrigation volume/

output is available for the next irrigation procedure.

7. Press the irrigation start/stop key again (LED goes out).

The tube is now relieved of pressure. The roller wheel spins backwards
