1. Scope

This chapter contains a description and specifications of the Qseal-extra, a Battery
Powered Tube sealer with handle from Conroy Medical AB.

1.1 Introduction

Qseal-extra is a fully automatic system for sealing PVC tubes, especially for tubes in
blood pack systems. Following the sealing procedure the tube is easily pulled apart, due
to the distinct sealing pattern, with no damage to the blood inside the tubes.
The intended clinical benefit of Qseal-extra is safe sealing of tubes and bags. Intact
seals minimize the risk for contamination and discards of blood component and provide
safety for the user and patient
The Main unit is connected by the Coaxial cable to the Hand unit, where the sealing
takes place when the trigger is pressed. Different types or sizes of tubes can be used and
the necessary sealing time is self-adjustable to fit the tubes that are being used.
Qseal-extra works with radio frequency (RF) energy to generate heat for sealing. Users
are requested to be cautious of potential electrical shocks or hazards while handling this
sealer. Always turn the power switch off before disconnecting cables or cleaning.
