Testing; Add Water Alarm; Disposable Alarm - level 1 System 1000 Operator's And Service Manual

Testing
The System 1000 is equipped with disposable set sensing interlocks. To operate the
device and perform testing operations, a SIMS Level 1 non-sterile, not-for-patient-use
D-series disposable set with heat exchanger and filter assembly must be in place.
| WARNING ! Do not attempt to defeat the disposable sensing interlocks or try to
operate the System 1000 without a disposable set in place. Water may spill from the
unit if the interlocks are defeated.
CAUTION: Prior to placing the System 1000 into service, the device must be tested by
SIMS Level 1 technical personnel, an authorized distributor of SIMS Level 1 ora
trained biomedical engineer. Periodic testing and maintenance should be performed by
a biomedical engineer or trained personnel.
NOTE: Refer to Maintenance and Testing Log section of this manual for safety testing
frequencies and intervals.
Add Water Alarm |
The System 1000 is equipped with a float switch which senses the water level in the
onboard reservoir. When the water level is too low, a red indicator on the display panel
illuminates and an audible alarm sounds. In the alarm condition the pump will not
circulate water.
With a test disposable set in place, the ADD WATER alarm may be tested by turning
the drain valve on the bottom of the unit 90 degrees clock wise and allowing water to
drain out into a container. Drain until the water level falls below the minimum | mark on
the water tank. —
Disposable Alarm
Three interlocks sense a properly installed disposable set. If a disposable heat
exchanger and filter assembly is not in place and the power switch is ON, a red
indicator will illuminate and an audible alarm will sound. With a disposable in place and
the unit operational, the interlocks may be tested one at a time by following these
simple steps.
1. Top heat exchanger socket.
Slide up slowly, two red indicators will illuminate, one on the display panel and
one next to the +2 socket and the audibie alarm wili sound.
2. Heat exchanger interlock.
Gently pull on the middle of the heat exchanger. A red indicator on the display
panel will illuminate and the audible alarm will sound.
3. Filter holder interlock.
Remove the Filter with Gas Vent assembly, a red indicator on the display panel
will illuminate and the audible alarm will sound. |
