When all fluid has been returned to the donor, an audible tone
will sound and the disconnect donor prompt will appear during the
final red cell collection. The donor may be disconnected at this
time, even though the final red cell collection may not be
complete. The remaining red cells in the separation chamber will
be pumped into the red cell container to collect the final targeted
red cell volume.
