Introduction
The IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump (hereinafter referred to as 'Pump') is a small lightweight volumetric infusion pump that provides accurate and
reliable infusions over a range of rates.
The IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump automatically regulates the infusion rate of intravenous solutions. The microprocessor-based pump uses a linear peristaltic,
volume displacement mechanism to regulate fluid flow at the desired rate. The pump's many features include:
• Easy setup and operation:
Advisory prompts to assist in setup and operation.
Quick start mode.
Diagnostic alarm messages to simplify operation and troubleshooting.
Easy viewing of rate and volume-to-be-infused (VTBI) settings.
• Wide range of infusion rates: 1 to 999 ml/h in 1 ml/h increments.
• Volumetric rate entry.
• Volume-to-be-infused capability with automatic switchover to the "keep vein open" (KVO) rate.
• Integral ultrasonic air-in-line detection.
• Detection of upstream/downstream occlusions.
• Low occlusion pressures (nominal 6 to 8 psi).
• Lightweight and portable with self-contained rechargeable battery.
• Automatic flow shutoff with activation of audible and visible alarms.
• Audible and visible low battery alert about one hour before battery alarm.
• Optional flow sensor (Model 192).
• Optional remote computer monitoring capability.
INTENDED USE:
The pump is designed to meet the infusion requirements within the operating environment specified in this Directions For Use (DFU)
including general wards, critical and intensive care, operating rooms and accident and emergency rooms.
This pump is suitable for use by appropriately trained clinicians or nurses. This pump can be used for Intravenous modes, supporting fluid
therapy, drug therapy, blood transfusions and parenteral nutrition.
About this Manual
The user must be thoroughly familiar with the pump described in this manual prior to use.

Operating Precautions
Infusion Sets
To ensure correct and accurate operation, only use Cardinal Health single use infusion sets described in this
Directions For Use.
It is recommended that infusion sets are changed according to the instructions in the 'Changing the
Infusion Set' section.
Use of non-specified infusion sets may impair the operation of the pump and the accuracy of the infusion.
When combining several apparatus and/or instruments with infusion sets and other tubing, for example via
a 3-way tap or multiple infusion, the performance of the pump may be affected and should be monitored
closely.
Uncontrolled flow may result if the infusion set is not properly isolated from the patient i.e. closing a tap in
the set or activating an in-line clamp / roller clamp.
The infusion set may be fitted with an in-line clamp, which can be used to occlude tubing in case it is
required to stop fluid flow.
The IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump is a positive pressure pump, which should use infusion sets fitted with luer
lock fittings or equivalent locking connectors.
To infuse from a burette, close the roller clamp above the burette and open the clamp on the vent on top
of the burette.
Discard infusion set if the packaging is not intact or the protector cap is detached. Ensure sets are not
kinked as this may occlude the tubing.
It is recommended that the air vent be opened on the IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump set if using glass bottles
or semi-rigid containers, to reduce the partial vacuum formed as the fluid is infused from the container.
This action will ensure the pump can maintain volumetric accuracy whilst the container empties. The action
of opening the air vent for semi-rigid containers should take place after the spiking of the container and
priming of the drip chamber.
Carefully read the Directions For Use supplied with the infusion set prior to use.
Using Collapsible bags, Glass Bottles & Semi Rigid containers
Steps for the Collapsible bags
Steps for Semi-rigid containers
Follow steps 1 to 3 as shown for the
semi-rigid containers, however do not
open vent as in step 4, but prime the
set as per step 5. Ensure the bag outlet
is fully pierced before filling the drip
chamber.

Operating Environment
When using any infusion pump in conjunction with other pumps or devices requiring vascular access,
extra care is advised. Adverse delivery of medication or fluids can be caused by the substantial variation
in pressures created within the fluid channels of such pumps. Typical examples of those pumps are used
during dialysis, bypass or cardiac assist applications.
The pump is suitable for use in all establishments, other than domestic establishments and those directly
connected to the public low voltage power supply network that supplies buildings used for domestic
purposes.
This pump is not intended to be used in the presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air or
oxygen or nitrous oxide.
Operating Pressure
The pumping pressure alarm system is not designed to provide protection against, or detection
of, extravasation or tissuing complications which can occur.
1000DF00161 Issue 1 6/24

Operating Precautions (Continued)
Alarm Conditions
Several alarm conditions detected by this pump will stop the infusion and generate visual and audible
alarms. Users must perform regular checks to ensure that the infusion is progressing correctly and no
alarms are operating.
Electromagnetic Compatibility and Interference
This pump is protected against the effects of external interference, including high energy radio frequency
emissions, magnetic fields and electrostatic discharge (for example, as generated by electrosurgical and
cauterising equipment, large motors, portable radios, cellular telephones etc.) and is designed to remain
safe when unreasonable levels of interference are encountered.
In some circumstances the pump may be affected by an electrostatic discharge through air at levels close
to or above 15kv; or by radio frequency radiation close to or above 10v/m. If the pump is affected by
this external interference the pump will remain in a safe mode; the pump will duly stop the infusion and
alert the user by generating a combination of visual and audible alarms. Should any encountered alarm
condition persist even after user intervention, it is recommended to replace that particular pump and
quarantine the pump for the attention of appropriately trained technical personnel.
This p ump is a CISPR 11 Group 1 Class A device and uses RF e nergy only for its internal f unction in the normal
product offering. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference with
the nearby electronic equipment. However, this pump emits a certain level of electromagnetic radiation
which is within the levels specified by IEC/EN60601-2-24 and IEC/EN60601-1-2. If the pump interacts with
other equipment, measures should be taken to minimise the effects, for instance by repositioning or
relocation.
B
Earth Conductor
The IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump is a Class I device, therefore must be earthed when connected to an AC
power supply.
This pump also has an internal power source.
When connected to an external power source, a three-wire (Live, Neutral, Earth) supply must be used. If the
integrity of the external protective conductor on the AC power cable has been compromised, the pump
should be disconnected from the AC power source and operated utilising the internal battery.
Hazards
An explosion hazard exists if the pump is used in the presence of flammable anaesthetics.
Exercise care to locate the pump away from any such hazardous sources.
Dangerous Voltage: An electrical shock hazard exists if the pump’s casing is opened or removed.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
If this pump is dropped, subjected to excessive moisture, fluid spillage, humidity or high
temperature, or otherwise suspected to have been damaged, remove it from service for inspection
by a qualified service engineer. When transporting or storing the pump, use original packaging
where possible, and adhere to temperature, humidity and pressure ranges stated in the
Specifications section and on the outer packaging.
If this pump behaves abnormally, remove from service and contact a qualified service engineer.
Latex Content
The IVAC® 598 Volumetric Pump does not contain any latex.
