12.11 Extracorporeal blood circuit and safety systems
Pressure transducer
(art. / ven. / pre-filter
pressure)
A filled pressure transducer is identified by the fact that no more
pressure fluctuation is detected at the pressure transducer within
5 minutes (arterial and pre-filter pressure) or 2 minutes (venous).
Arterial pressure Display range: –280 mmHg to +300 mmHg
Resolution: 20 mmHg
Accuracy: 10 mmHg
Alarm window width: 20 mmHg to 200 mmHg, size and position
adjustable around actual pressure
Venous pressure
System safeguarding
against blood loss into the
environment
Display range: –80 mmHg to +500 mmHg
Resolution: 20 mmHg
Accuracy: 10 mmHg
Alarm window width: 20 mmHg to 200 mmHg, size and position
adjustable around actual pressure
Minimum alarm limits:
The optical detector senses non-opaque fluid: –20 mmHg during
treatment
The optical detector senses opaque fluid: 0 mmHg during treatment
The optical detector senses opaque fluid: –20 mmHg when
disconnecting
When the upper venous alarm limit is exceeded, the venous clamp will
not be closed to allow for release of the pressure in the system. In the
event of a simultaneous air detector alarm, the clamp will close.
TMP Display range: –60 mmHg to +520 mmHg
Resolution: 20 mmHg
Accuracy: 10 mmHg
Alarm window width: 20 mmHg to 200 mmHg, size and position
adjustable around actual pressure
In MPS, the upper alarm limit is limited to 100 mmHg.
The TMP will be calculated using the following formula and will then be
displayed:
TMP = transmembrane pressure
Pven = venous pressure

pF Display range: –60 mmHg to +520 mmHg
Resolution: 20 mmHg

Alarm window width: 20 mmHg to 200 mmHg, size and position
adjustable around actual pressure
