Torque Guide - CareFusion Alaris GP Technical & Service Manual

Torque Guide

The torque levels established during the manufacturing process are outlined in this chapter, for example 40cNm. Torque levels selected
apply throughout product life.
Use the information as a guide to the 'do not exceed' torque levels when servicing the pump. When servicing, it is recommended that
torque is applied gradually until the component is secure. In any process do not exceed the stated levels.
If a torque driver is available for servicing this will help control the applied torque; otherwise, be aware that excess force may cause the
component to fail.
• Always use the correct torque level when performing an assembly stage.
• Take care with the torque applied when re-assembling parts.
• The head patterns of the fasteners are of the following types:
- Torx T8
- Torx T10
- Allen key 2mm
- Small flat blade
- Hex 4.5mm
- Hex 10mm
• Always select the correct tool and bit pattern for the fastener.
Note: Where a torque
level is not stated then
fixing should be hand
tight.
