Getting Started
Product Connections
The Product connects to infusion devices through the
front-panel inlet ports. Fluid drain hoses and accessories
connections are made through the rear-panel
connections.
Connect Infusion Devices
As shown in Figure 3, it is recommended that all infusion
device connections be made to the Product front-panel
inlet connectors through 3-way stopcocks.
The channel 4 inlet shown in Figure 3, shows a 20 ml
syringe attached to one 3-way stopcock inlet. The syringe
can be used to help priming. It can be used as shown or
can be connected further away from the inlet to help for
flow tests. The syringe can be shared among the
channels and removed after the channel is primed.
Follow these recommendations when you connect to the
inlet tubing circuits:
•
Use adequate prime volumes (for example, 10 ml)
to push through any bubbles.
•
Use the stopcocks at the inlet to prevent fluid
backflow out of inlets between tests.
•
When you connect to the inlet circuits (for example,
when you attach the priming syringes to the
stopcocks) make sure no new bubbles are
introduced.
