Description

THE SPACE STATION IN DETAIL

SpaceStation serves to accommodate up to four infusion and infusion syringe pumps.

The single SpaceStations can be assembled to form one or up to three columns which

are separated from each other. The individual columns require their own mains supply

and are interconnected with each other via special extension cables. Every column

must be closed with a cover, SpaceCover Standard or Comfort, to ensure safe and

complete system functionality.

Caution:

Every SpaceStation or one column consisting of several SpaceStations must

be covered with a lid. This lid protects the upper connections from humidity and

damage and ensures perfect system functionality.

The SpaceStation and the individual pump are connected to each other via the

connectors F2A to F2D. The plugs are to be protected from damage and humidity. 

Proper Use:

• The modular Space System is made for treatment of a single patient. It is especially designed for use on Intensive Care Units and Operating Theatres. The Space System is used in hospital. Operation mainly by physicians and medically qualified nursing staff.

• Check if the current software and hardware version of the components of the Space System are the same as this Instructions for Use refers to.

• At fm mobil, accessory for mobile use, it is not permitted to use short stands, as the centre of gravity of the Space System may change.

• Insert receptacle suspension of the fm mobil before transport. Check stability and secure position, especially when fastening the system to the fm mobil.

• Prevent the fm mobil from rolling away on horizontal surfaces by using the locking device. If there is an incline of more than 5°, additional locking is necessary.

• When the pumps in the Space System are switched off the control systems are not active. Therefore, close roller clamp or selector valve at the connection point to prevent uncontrolled backflow.

• Do not plug the power supply lead into the socket before connecting all the other interfaces!

• The Space System is designed for operation with a single power supply connection per pillar.

• All configurations must comply with IEC/EN 60601-1-1.

• Possible explosion hazard if used in presence of flammable anesthetics!

• Use only compatible combinations of equipment, accessories, working parts and disposables.

• Use only original spare parts. Functional safety is only guaranteed if by the manufacturer recommended resp. compatible disposables  are used.

• Read carefully Instructions for Use of the infusion pumps and infusion syringe pumps used.

• Application of infusion and infusion syringe pumps only under regularly supervision by specially trained staff.

• The user must make sure the pumps and other components of the system are locked correctly.

• Do not deposit things on the pumps. Avoid leaning on the pumps!

• The connecting leads must be laid so that people do not stumble over them and work with the Space System is not hampered.

• Do not place disposable near the connections of the pumps – use hose routings.

• Make sure the pumps are inserted and removed correctly.
