Preparing the System For Use
CAUTION!
Check to ensure the available wall outlet voltage matches the data listed on the
label attached to the back of the system. Incorrect voltage can cause errors and
malfunctions and may destroy the system.
Ensure the connection data and technical specifications of the power supply
comply with DIN VDE or national requirements. The wall outlet power supply
cord must be plugged into a properly installed safety wall plug (see DIN VDE
0107). Read the device label located in rear of pump to determine the operating
voltage of the system.
The power connection must be equipped with a grounding contact. Use the Aqui-
lex power cord to establish a connection between the wall outlet and the power
cord connection located in the rear of the system.
Use only a certified (UL-listed), removable power cord, type SJT, minimal 18 AWG,
3 leads. The plug connectors must comply with NEMA 5-15 or IEC 320/CEE22.
Grounding will only be reliable if the equipment is connected to a corresponding
hospital grade outlet.
Integrate the system into the potential equalization system as specified by local
safety rules and regulations.
Medical devices are subject to special safety and protective measures concerning
electromagnetic compatibility (hereafter abbreviated as EMC).
This system is to be used only for the purposes described in the manual and has
to be installed, set up, and operated in compliance with the EMC notes and in-
structions.
