Pole Clamp Installation
The pole clamp is fitted to the rear of the pump and will provide secure fixing to vertical I.V. poles of a diameter between 15 and 40 mm.
1. Pull the folded pole clamp towards you and unscrew the clamp to leave enough room for the size of the pole.
2. Place pump around pole and tighten screw until the clamp is secured to the pole.
Recessed area
*
Never mount the pump such that the I.V. infusion stand becomes top heavy or unstable.
A
Ensure the pole clamp is folded away and stored within the recessed area at the rear of the pump before connecting
to a Docking Station/Workstation* or when not in use.
Docking Station / Workstation* or Equipment Rail Installation
The rotating cam can be fitted to the rectangular bar on the Docking Station/Workstation* or equipment rails measuring 10mm by
25mm.
1. Align the rotating cam on the rear of the pump with the
rectangular bar on the Docking Station/Workstation* or
the equipment rail.
2. Push the pump firmly onto the rectangular bar or
equipment rail.
3. Ensure that the Pump is positioned securely. Verify Pump
is secure by gently pulling the Pump away from the
Docking Station/Workstation* without using the release
lever. When the Pump is securely attached, it should not
come off the Docking Station/Workstation*.
4. To release, push the release lever and pull the pump
forwards.

patient harm.

It is recommended that infusion bags be located on a hanger directly above the pump with which they are being
A
used. This minimises the potential for confusion of infusion sets when multiple volumetric pumps are used.
Pump can only be mounted on the horizontal section of the docking stations listed above.
