2.3.7 BLOOD LEAK CALIBRATION
The glass tube in the blood leak detector must be clean before the blood leak
detector calibration can be completed successfully. The glass tube in the detector
is cleaned by performing a bleach rinse, which washes the tube out along with the
rest of the hydraulics.
There are two calibrations performed on the Blood Leak Detector. One calibrates
the detector itself and the other calibrates the dimness circuits. Perform the
procedures as described below.
From the Calibrate Sensors screen, select the Blood Leak Detector screen
button. The screen will change to the following:
Note: The blood leak and blood dimness calibration is performed
automatically. Once started, the calibration will proceed on its own until
the calibration complete screen is displayed.
1. Verify that the machine has received a bleach rinse recently, or perform a
bleach rinse as described in the Operator’s Manual before calibrating the
blood leak detector.
2. Press the [CONFIRM] key. The screen will change and the blood leak
calibration will start.
