The Fresenius Medical Care Dry Acid Dissolution Unit is semi-automated electro-mechanical design, which is
designed to mix a 132 gallon (500 liters) batch of acid concentrate with a minimum of operator supervision,
and is to be only used for the mixing of Fresenius Medical Care Dry Acid Products.
There are two (2) pre-programmed cycles built into the Fresenius Medical Care Dry Acid Dissolution Unit; the
RINSE CYCLE and the DISSOLUTION CYCLE. The RINSE CYCLE has four operations- FILL, RECIRCULATE, DRAIN,
and CYCLE COMPLETE. The first three: FILL, RECIRCULATE, and DRAIN are done twice before it reaches CYCLE
COMPLETE Operation. The DISSOLUTION CYCLE has eight operations-FILL, ADD GRANUALES, MIX,
DEAREATION, FINAL FILL, HOMOGENIZE, TRANSFER, and CYCLE COMPLETE
The control panel will display the Dry Acid Dissolution Unit status at any given time, making it easy for the
operator to follow the progress of the operations in each cycle. The right side of the panel displays the RINSE
CYCLE, and the left side of the panel displays the DISSOLUTION CYCLE.
In addition, a manual override has been incorporated into the unit (See Section 9, page 27).
