Chapter 2: Important information Brief description AquaC UNO H The AquaC UNO H is a single station reverse osmosis system with heat disinfection function for producing permeate in an economical and environmentally-friendly manner. The system can be extended by the responsible organization with additional components to form a complete water treatment system for use in a dialysis unit.
Intended use 2.6.1 Intended purpose The AquaC UNO H Portable Water Purification System is a reverse osmosis unit intended for use with hemodialysis systems to remove organic and inorganic substances and microbial contaminants from the water used for treating hemodialysis patients or related therapies.
When operating and servicing the systems, it is mandatory to properly and meticulously adopt the safety precautions described. For that reason, every responsible organization and every service technician should be familiar with and apply the safety rules and regulations. Fresenius Medical Care AquaC UNO H IFU-EN-US 5E-2019...
Transport and storage (see Chapter 10 on page 10-1). When ready for operation, the AquaC UNO H should be considered a stationary device (as opposed to a mobile one). As such, the device may not be moved.
If the Technical Safety Checks are performed as prescribed and at the defined intervals, the device will run safely between checks. In addition, the manufacturer recommends performing maintenance procedures at the same intervals in order to prevent the device malfunctioning due to wear.
