NO FOOD (Figure 3-6)
Pump will sound a dual tone beep repeatedly
and display will read NO FOOD.
Why: This alarm has occurred because
pump has detected air in the tubing. It takes
approximately 1 ml of air, which is approximately
5 inches (12.7 cm) in length entering the
teal colored tubing to cause an alarm.
To correct the problem: Press the
key to silence alarm and place pump in
pause mode, then check the following:
1. Check feeding bag for food. If it is empty,
refill bag and prime the set to remove air from the bag and tubing.
2. Check tubing for air bubbles. If bag is full but air is present in the
tubing, disconnect set from patient, press and hold the
key until air bubble has moved to the end of the tubing.
3. Check cassette receptacle for cleanliness, especially around the air
sensor. If cleaning is necessary, refer to
CHAPTER 5 - CLEANING (page 38).
4. Check that an Infinity disposable set is loaded
into pump properly and door is closed.
5. Check disposable set for worn tubing.
If it is worn, replace with a new set.
NOTE: Blenderized or aggressively mixed solutions
may have foam. Small foam bubbles may collect in
the air sensor area and must be cleared in order to
avoid a NO FOOD alarm. Allowing foamy solutions
to sit for 10 to 15 minutes after mixing and prior to
pouring into the bag will reduce the amount of foam.
