11 Technical information
11.1 Performance
11.1.1 Essential performance
Essential pump performance is defined as follows in standard operating conditions:
■
flow rate accuracy (see
on page 88);
■
occlusion detection time (< 4 min. at 25 mL/h with medical water);
■
management of high priority alarms, see
The different types of information signal or
on page 79.
WARNING
Flow rate accuracy can be influenced by administration set model, administration
set configuration, tube stretching, fluid viscosity, fluid temperature and container
height.
11.1.2 Flow rate accuracy
Accuracy
± 5%*
Flow rate ≥ 10 mL/h
± 0.5 mL/h*
Flow rate < 10 mL/h
* In Ramp mode, the values stated are the average flow rate accuracy of the ramp up phase
and the ramp down phase.
Test initial conditions following 60601-2-24. Cumulative volume measured on a two-hour
period, with 25 mL minimum volume and medical water (apply to 12 mL/h above ).
Temperature: 20 ± 2 °C.
Container height: 50 cm above the upside of the pump.
