Description Of The Aquilex® Fluid Control System - Hologic Aquilex Fluid Control System Manuel D'instructions Et D'utilisation

CAUTION!
Wall outlet voltage
Check to ensure the available wall outlet voltage matches the data listed on the la-
bel attached to the back of the pump. Incorrect voltage can cause errors and mal-
functions and may destroy the system.
CAUTION!
Transport
The device is transportable. The roller wheels of the Fluid Monitoring Unit (cart/
scale) are used for positioning at the place of use. To transport the device, remove
all fluid bags from the hooks and make sure there are no containers or only com-
pletely emptied containers on the cart/scale. Inflow and outflow tubes must be
completely removed. Make sure the power supply line does not touch the ground
and there are no other objects located on the Aquilex® Fluid Control System. Al-
ways use the handle to move the system safely.
CAUTION!
Combination of AQL-100P with AQL-100CS
The irrigation pump unit AQL-100P may only be used with the fluid monitoring unit
AQL-100CS as only this combination is approved to bear the SGS NRTL mark.
CAUTION!
Cleaning the system / Sterilization not allowed
The pump and the cart/scale can be disinfected by wiping off the outer surfaces.
Do not sterilize the pump and the cart/scale.
CAUTION!
Filter
The vacuum tube with integrated filter is designed for maximum 30 days. The va-
cuum tube may not be sterilized. Replace the vacuum tube sooner if it is obviously
contaminated. The filter prevents body fluids from entering the interior of the
device.
3.2 Description of the Aquilex® Fluid Control System
The intrauterine pressure can be adjusted on the front of the pump. It can be pre-
set to a range between 40 and 150 mmHg. The maximum inflow rate is 800 ml/
min and is reduced automatically by the pump once the pre-set intrauterine pres-
sure setting has been reached.
The system has been designed to provide both fluid and vacuum systems that max-
imize the performance of the MyoSure® Tissue Removal System.
The Aquilex® Fluid Control System can be used with hypotonic, electrolyte-free me-
dia (e.g., glycine 1.5 % and sorbitol 3.0 %) and isotonic, electrolyte containing media
(e.g., saline 0.9 % and Lactated Ringer's).
The system operates with a completely non-contact pressure measurement of the
irrigation medium. The contact-free pressure measurement is achieved by integrat-
ing the pressure chamber into the tubing system. The pressure chamber transmits
the irrigation fluid pressure to the electronics of the device via a pressure sensor.
The pressure control circuit continuously compares the desired preset intrauterine
pressure with the actual intrauterine pressure. The function of this algorithm is to
maintain the pre-set intrauterine pressure. Check for possible leaks if the pre-set
intrauterine pressure cannot be achieved.
