6.2 General Warnings and Cautions
!
WARNING
High Magnetic Field Strength of Impeller.
The pump head contains a rotor magnet with high
field strength. Pace maker may be influenced and
magnetic forces may lead to contusions. Keep
distance to pace makers and handle pump heads with
care.
CAUTION
Magnetic Forces
Pay attention to the magnetic forces when hand-ling
the pump head. It has to be avoided that magnetic
parts are attracted resulting in contamination or
damage (for example cracks) of the housing or
impeller. Specifically pay attention to the magnetic
forces, when handling two pump heads at the same
time.
CAUTION
Gamma Sterilization
The pump heads DCP-600 have been tested to be
robust against gamma radiation with a dose up to
40 kGy.
Handle the pump heads with care, especially after
gamma radiation with doses above 25 kGy, since the
radiation exposure decreases the flexibility of the
pump head material.
6.3 Mounting of Pump Head
6.3.1 Preparation
After removal of the pump head from its packaging
assure that no metallic part is magnetically attaching.
Specifically remove the
Fixation Disc
, which comes
delivered within the packaging in order to magnetically
fix the impeller against movements during transportation.
Figure 38: Pump head with Fixation Disc
Assure that the impeller speed is set to 0 rpm and that
the system is disabled.
6.3.2 Mounting Step 1: Insertion
Pull the
Locking Pin
radially outwards and insert the
pump head at the same time.
