HYDRAULIC OPERATION
1. Time constants
The overlap time (delay time) of the balancing chamber valves is always 50 ms. This time is
included in the switching time of the balance chamber (i.e., switching time is 6.00 seconds means a
5.95 second fill time plus a 50 ms delay time).
Time constants of the balance chamber.
Flow rate 100 ml/min t = 18.0 s ± 10%
Flow rate 200 ml/min t = 9.0 s ± 10%
Flow rate 300 ml/min t = 6.0 s ± 10%
Flow rate 400 ml/min t = 4.5 s ± 10%
Flow rate 500 ml/min t = 3.6 s ± 10%
Flow rate 600 ml/min t = 3.0 s ± 10%
Flow rate 700 ml/min t = 2.57 s ± 10%
Flow rate 800 ml/min t = 2.25 s ± 10%
2. Rinse
Rinse can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their rinse ports, the dialyzer
couplings are connected to the shunt, the shunt door is closed and there is no blood sensed.
During rinse the following occurs:
The UF pump runs at 4000 ml/h
V24 and V25 alternately open and close with the opening of V26 every balancing
chamber cycle.
V43 opens 6 out of 31 balancing chamber cycles.
V29 opens 3 out of 31 balancing chamber cycles.
The acid and bicarbonate pump stroke every balancing chamber cycle.
This pattern assures that all of the various parts of the hydraulics get adequately rinsed.
The rinse program lasts until it is stopped by the timer counting to 0 or by the operator. The
remaining time on rinse is displayed on the screen. If the remaining time is zero, the machine stops
the flow pump and displays a message “Press CONFIRM to exit” in the status box.
Note: The rinse time is selectable by the user in the Default Settings of Service Mode.

Note: The Rinse time, selectable by the user in the Default Settings of Service Mode,
minutes, otherwise it displays 15 minutes.
3. Mandatory Rinse
A Mandatory Rinse has to always be performed after or interrupted Chemical Disinfection/Dwell
and/or Acid Clean. The user is informed by a message in the status box. The only difference
between Mandatory Rinse and a regular Rinse program is that the Mandatory Rinse has to run for a
predefined time and cannot be terminated.
If the machine is turned off or the acid or bicarbonate connectors are pulled during Mandatory Rinse
before the needed time is over, the machine comes up with Mandatory Rinse again after power on.
Mandatory Rinse can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their rinse ports,
the dialyzer couplings are connected to the shunt, the shunt door is closed and there is no blood
sensed.
During a Mandatory Rinse, the remaining time is displayed. If the remaining time is zero, the
machine stops and displays a message “Press CONFIRM to exit” in the status box.
is used to time the Mandatory Rinse. For Diasafe, if the Rinse time is greater than 15
4. Chemical Disinfection/Rinse
Chemical Disinfection/Rinse can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their
rinse ports, the dialyzer couplings are connected to the shunt, the shunt door is closed and there is no
blood sensed. When Acid Cleaning is started, the lines are rinsed and then prompts to attach the acid
and bicarbonate connectors to jug(s) containing an acid cleaner. The Chemical Disinfection/Rinse
procedure is followed immediately by a Post Rinse.
If the machine is turned off or the acid or bicarbonate connectors are pulled during Chemical
Disinfection/Rinse before the needed time was over, the machine comes up with Mandatory Rinse
after power on. During pulling acid, returning acid to its rinse port.
If the machine has performed any program other than rinse or heat disinfect before, the Chemical
Disinfection/Rinse program always starts with a pre-rinse for 7 minutes (or 10 minutes if Diasafe
Filter is selected in Hardware Options of Service Mode) to rinse out concentrate or any disinfectant.
The pre-rinse time is displayed on the screen.
After pre-rinse, the machine pulls in 120ml of disinfectant, the timer starts decrementing until it
reaches 0 and the cycle is finished. The pre-rinse, the time remaining, and the post-rinse times are
displayed on the screen. If the remaining time is zero, the machine prompts to connect the acid
connector into its rinse port and a Post Rinse will begin.
During the Post Rinse the remaining time is displayed. If the remaining time is zero, the machine
stops and displays a message “Press CONFIRM to exit” in the status box.
Note: The Chemical Disinfection/Rinse time is selectable by the user in the Default
Settings of Service Mode.

Section II – Hydraulic Description
5. Chemical Disinfection/Dwell
Chemical Disinfection/Dwell can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their
rinse ports, the dialyzer couplings are connected to the shunt, the shunt door is closed and there is no
blood sensed. When Acid Cleaning is started, the lines are rinsed and then prompts to attach the acid
and bicarbonate connectors to jug(s) containing an acid cleaner.
When the program is complete, if the machine is turned off or the acid or bicarbonate connectors are
pulled during Chemical Disinfection/Dwell before the needed time was over, the machine comes up
with Mandatory Rinse after power on. During pulling acid, returning acid to its rinse port.
If the machine has performed any program other than rinse or heat disinfect before, the Chemical
Disinfection/Dwell program always starts with a Pre-Rinse for 7 minutes (or 10 minutes if Diasafe
Filter is selected in Hardware Options of Service Mode) to rinse out concentrate or any disinfectant.
The Pre-Rinse time is displayed on the screen.
After Pre-Rinse, the machine pulls in 120ml of disinfectant, the timer starts decrementing until it
reaches 0 and the cycle is finished. The Chemical Dwell follows after a short delay. The Pre-Rinse
and time remaining times are displayed on the screen.
If the remaining time is zero the machine stops. Then the machine prompts to connect the acid
connector into its rinse port. The machine will run for about a minute to draw up disinfectant left in
the acid line and then will display the message “Press CONFIRM to exit” in the status box. A
Mandatory Rinse must be performed prior to using the machine.
Note: The Chemical Disinfection/Dwell time is selectable by the user in the Default
Settings of Service Mode.
6. Acid Clean
Acid Cleaning can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their respective rinse
ports, the dialyzer couplings are connected to the shunt, the shunt door is closed and there is no
blood sensed. When Acid Cleaning is started, the lines are rinsed and then prompts to attach the acid
and bicarbonate connectors to jug(s) containing an acid cleaner.
When the program is complete, if the machine is turned off or the acid or bicarbonate connectors are
inserted into their rinse ports during an Acid Cleaning before the needed time was over, the machine
comes up with Mandatory Rinse after power on.
If the remaining time is zero the machine stops and prompts to connect the acid and bicarbonate
connectors into their respective rinse ports. The machine will display the message “Press
CONFIRM to exit” in the status box. A Mandatory Rinse must be performed prior to using the
machine.
Note: The Acid Cleaning time is selectable by the user in the Default Settings of
Service Mode.
2008T Technician’s Manual – 490130 Rev. H II-6
Section II – Hydraulic Description
7. Heat disinfect
Heat disinfect can only be started if the acid and bicarbonate connectors are in their rinse ports, the
dialyzer couplings are connected to the shunt and the shunt door is closed and blood is not sensed.
If the machine has performed any program other than rinse or heat disinfect before, the heat disinfect
program always starts with a Pre-Rinse for 7 minutes (or 20 minutes if Ext. Pre-Rinse is selected in
Default Settings of Service Mode or 10 minutes if Diasafe Filter is selected in Hardware Options of
Service Mode) to rinse out concentrate or any disinfectant. The Pre-Rinse time is displayed on the
screen.
After Pre-Rinse, the machine starts running in recirculation mode (V29 open and V30 closed).
When the water temperature reaches 80°C, the timer starts decrementing until it reaches 0 and the
cycle is finished. The Pre-Rinse time and time remaining are displayed on the screen. If the
predefined time has elapsed, the machine turns off all pumps and valves and displays the message
“Press CONFIRM to exit” in the status box or, if set, the machine will power off when heat
disinfection finishes.
Note: The Heat Disinfection time is selectable by the user in the Default Settings of
Service Mode.
8. Flow off
After the flow has been turned off, the heater is turned off and the deaeration pump will turn off after
one minute.
9. No program mode (Select Program screen)
In “no program state” everything is off except for the deaeration pump and V25, V26, V30, V31,
V32, V33 and V34 are on. All alarms are not active or displayed except for blood pressure alarms.
If blood is sensed there will be an audible alarm and a message in the display. The heater is disabled.
2008T Technician’s Manual – 490130 Rev. H II-7
Section II – Hydraulic Description
10. Filling Program
The filling program is a special hydraulic program that runs when air is detected at level sensor #6.
The flow rate is reduced and valve 43 is open depending on dialysate pressure so that when the
pressure is high enough, air in the air separation chamber is sent down the drain. Unlike normal
balance chamber operation, the spent side of the balance chamber is not opened to the drain. Instead,
all dialysate put into the fresh side of the balance chamber is used to push air and any additional
dialysate down the drain through valve 43. The level sensor #6 (Air Sensor in Air Separation
Chamber) is only checked at the end of the cycle. If there is still air in the air separation chamber,
the next cycle is performed. If not, the machine will go on with dialysis. If the filling program
occurs and there are no water alarms, valves 24 and 25 are open and valve 26 is closed during the
filling program. UF is stopped during the filling program. If the filling program runs for more than
60 seconds with blood sensed, a permanent fill alarm will occur and the message “Fill Program
Alarm” is displayed in the status box.
11. Flow alarm
Flow alarm will occur if:
a. The float switch opens valve 41, and the water level is not up within the approximately 6
seconds, all balance chamber valves shut off, heater is off until the sensor detects water (“No
Water” message is displayed).
b. If the float switch does not detect a low level within 2.5 seconds after the balance chamber did
cycle (“Flow Inlet Error” message is displayed). Exception is recirculation. Heater off
c. The CFS (chamber full switch) does not switch the balance chamber for 10 seconds. Exception
is flow off and no program state. Heater off (“Flow Error” is displayed).
d. The CFS switches the chamber faster than 1.8 seconds. Heater off (“High Flow Error” is
displayed).

Section II – Hydraulic Description
DIALYSATE CIRCUIT
In the dialysate compartment, water and concentrate are mixed at the set ratio and then deaerated and
heated to desired temperature (range 35-39°C).
1. Water Inlet
Allowable incoming water pressure: 20 to 105 PSI. Water temperature must be a minimum of 10°C,
and a maximum of 25°C. The water must meet AAMI (Association for the Advancement of
Medical Instrumentation) standards for water for dialysis. Periodic maintenance and disinfection
procedures are required to maintain the water quality. Refer to the “Machine Specifications” section
of the 2008T Operator’s Manual (P/N 490122) for the water quality specifications.
2. Deaeration
The dialysate is deaerated by negative pressure created by the deaeration pump.
3. Heating
The 1300 watt heater adjusts the dialysate to the desired temperature. There is a control which
allows adjustment of the dialysate temperature between 35 and 39 °C. A heat exchanger is used to
recover the heat from the drain fluid.
4. Dialysate Balancing Chamber
The balance chambers assure that equal amounts of dialysate enter and exit the dialyzer. The UF
membrane pump withdraws extra fluid at a set rate. This causes a UF pressure or transmembrane
pressure (TMP), dependent on the dialyzer and the UF rate. The fluid withdrawn by the membrane
pump flows from the blood as ultrafiltrate. The function is described on the following pages.

5. Proportional Mixing System
The balance chamber is also part of the mixing system. After each filling of a balance chamber, the
acid pump makes one stroke supplying the correct amount of acid into the hydraulic mixing
chambers. If bicarbonate is employed, the bicarbonate pump will make one or two strokes depending
on the bicarbonate level selected and the type of acid used.

equal to the volume of the chamber.
In the two described cases the volume expelled from either compartment equals exactly the total
volume of the chamber:
The use of only one chamber would produce an irregular flow. In order to obtain a continuous flow
of dialysate, a further chamber is switched parallel to the first chamber and operated at an inverse
sequence.

Figure III-1b: Dialysate Balancing Chamber (Phases of One Chamber)
It is insured that the same amount of dialysate is always fed to the dialyzer and discharged by the
dialyzer.
Phase 1:
The right-hand side of the balance chamber fills with
fresh dialysate. The resulting pressure on the
membrane forces the spent dialysate solution out.
Phase 2:
The left hand compartment fills with used dialysate.
With just one balance chamber, dialysate would be unable to flow constantly through the dialyzer, as
the two phases have to succeed one another. Therefore, the system has two balance chambers that
work alternately.
The fresh dialysate is pressed to the dialyzer.
