MR SUITABILITY OF THE SWITCH 2.0 COMFORT
AND SWITCH 2.0 SMART
In combination with the Rapid cuffs, the manometer was tested for ope-
rational capability in magnetic resonance space (MR) according to the
requirement of ASTM F2052 - 06e1 (Standard Test Method For Measure-
ment Of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force on Medical Devices
In Magnetic Resonance Environment). Both the functionality requirements,
as well as electromagnetic attractive force were in an area filled with
3 Tesla. This is indicated by the marking „MR Conditional" on the scale
CALIBRATION
On the back of the manometer, there is a square sticker with the words
„MTK" and the „year specification", in which the next calibration of
the instrument is required. The metrological control (MTK) must be per-
formed every 2 years, according to the latest Medical Devices Operator
Ordinance (MPBetreibV). This can be done by the manufacturer or
authorized maintenance services.

or by email to service@erka.org.
Even for private use, we recommend that you perform a metrological
check in 2-year intervals through the company ERKA.
Please note that instead of MTK in the model SWITCH 2.0, the
manometer head is easily replaced by a new one. The manometers
of SWITCH2.0 are not designed for a readjustment.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
The manometer is basically maintenance-free. We recommend that
you use a damp cotton or microfiber cloth netted with disinfectants,
if necessary. Avoid the penetration of liquids into the cabinet.
