Flush Error

(Medium Priority Alarm)
The FLUSH ERROR screen appears when the flushing solution is no longer being delivered
because the flush bag is empty or because of a clog between the pump and flush bag.
The pump determines this by measuring the amount of fluid in the tube over time. Large
amounts of foam or bubbles in the feeding solution can also be a cause for this alarm. Check
the bag to see if it is empty and re-fill the bag as required. If the bag still contains feeding
solution, remove cassette and check the bag side tubing for excessive foam or bubbles. Clear
bubbles from line and reload the feeding set or replace with a new feeding set. Check the
flush line to find the occlusion causing the blockage. If the occlusion cannot be cleared, load a
new pump set, prime it, and restart the feeding, Figure 29
If the error still cannot be resolved, press
of this alarm condition may take up to 2 minutes to occur.
Note: An occlusion may pressurize the feeding set, which can result in an unintended bolus of feed or flush solution when the
occlusion is cleared. This volume is less than 1ml.

Flow Error

(Medium Priority Alarm)
The FLOW ERROR screen appears when the feeding solution is no longer being delivered because
of a clog between the pump and the patient. The pump determines the presence of a clog by
checking to see if fluid can be pumped away from the sensor below the feeding set valve while the
valve is closed. Check the line to find the occlusion causing the blockage. If the error cannot be
resolved, check the valve pocket in the pump set loading area for dampness or dirt, which may be
a cause for a false error. Clean and dry the valve pocket. If the error still cannot be resolved, load a
new Pump Set, prime it, and restart the feeding, Figure 30.
If the error still cannot be resolved, press
different pump into service. Detection of this alarm condition may take up to 240 minutes to occur
at 1 mL/hr or up to 14 minutes to occur at flow rates greater than 125 mL/hr.
