Hose Kits

The MCH Series supports multiple hose kit configurations to suit the growing array of
perfusion applications. The external plastic tubing must be inspected according to the
Weekly Maintenance Procedure. With any hose kit, quarterly maintenance must include
checking the connectors for leaks, and tightening the clamps if needed. To ensure proper
function, exterior tubing must be replaced every 2 years regardless of condition.
Replacement involves the detachment of the current hoses and attachment of new hoses as
outlined in the Maintenance section of this manual.
If the external tubing appears cloudy or discolored, immediately remove the device from
service and contact CardioQuip Customer Service for details regarding servicing assistance.

Standard Hose Kit

The MCH Series includes a Standard Hose Kit (MCH-10SHS
and MCH-11SHS), with dripless connectors at one end,
nylon-reinforced PVC tubing, ball valves and a short section
of flexible clear tubing at the oxygenator end. Standard
lengths are 10ft (3m) for the MCH-1000(i) and 6ft (1.8m) for
the MCH-1000(m).

Dripless Hose Kit

The optional Dripless Hose Kit (MCH-10DAM and
MCH-11DAM) keeps cooler-heater water away from the
operating room environment, reducing the risk to the
patient of secondary infections from exposure to water-
borne pathogens. The kit incorporates PVC tubing with
dripless connectors at both ends. The dripless connectors
eliminate oxygenator-side water leakage during connection
and disconnection.
At the end of a procedure, leave the brass Hansen connectors attached to the CPB heat
exchanger, and disconnect the dripless connectors. The short sections of hose can be
taken out of the room along with the heat exchanger, then disconnected, drained, and
returned to the room post-procedure.

Custom Hose Kits

Hose kits can be customized for particular applications. Contact CardioQuip for assistance
in creating a custom hose kit for use with your MCH Series device.
