1 Overview

1.1 General

The Pilot A2 RS 232 Events log is a syringe pump intended for the infusion of intravenous agents at a accurate, low flow rate. The wide choice of syringes, the use of the universally recognised control symbols and the synoptic display of the alarms contribute to making the Pilot A2 RS 232 Events log easy to use. The adjustable occlusion detection, the correct positioning detection and the overall syringe protection system guarantee optimum safety.

Its technical characteristics, the flow range from 0.1 to 400 ml/hr (configured at 200 ml/hr) and its excellent accuracy (+1% on the device) contribute to making the Pilot A2 RS 232 Events log, the ideal instrument for medical services.

The Pilot A2 RS 232 Events log is equipped with a 16ko-EEPROM enabling the memorization of 896 events. These events are available for consultation through the ISCTRL maintenance software, 4.1 and upper version.

1.3 Precautions to be taken before use

The symbol ! in the concise instrument instructions guide of the device recommends that the operator’s guide should be read complelety in accordance with standard EN 60601-1.

Fresenius Vial may in no case be held responsible for medical problems or any other problems resulting from inadequate use of the equipment.

Refer to the User’s instructions for further details.

1.4 Internal safety features

As soon as it is switched ON, the device activates a continuous function inspection system. Any internal failure or any problem related to the operating procedure in progress is detected immediately. Nevertheless, abnormal operation of the equipment with no obvious cause must always be reported to the qualified technicians in your establishment or our After Sales service.

In case of single fault condition, an alarm is activated for any flow rate deviation of ± 5% in comparison with the normal flow rate.

A second check activates an alarm in the event of deviation of 1 ml in comparison with the anticipated infused volume, or if a flow rate deviation of ± 20% is identified. The alarm is triggered by the most rapidly detected deviation.

The Pilot A2 Events log is fitted with an internal battery to continue operation in the event of a power cut. Furthermore, a safety fuse protects the mains from further disturbance.

2.1.4 Mechanical gear box unit

The mechanical base unit is composed of a motor-reducer block driving a screw-and-nut unit. At the shaft end, the motor receives a control panel associated with an opto-electronic switch.

The mechanical base unit also accommodates a potentiometer fitted with a rack pinion system.

2.1.5 Mechanical plunger unit

The mechanical plunger unit is mounted onto the mechanical gear box. The gear box ensures the displacement movement of the plunger through a screw / nut system.

The plunger is fitted with a disengagement control allowing to separate this from the screw- and-nut system.

2.2 Functional description

From a functional point of view, the Pilot A2 Events Log is composed of three subassemblies:

!A syringe position control and maintenance assembly.

!A motorisation assembly.

!An external connection assembly.

2.2.1 Syringe control and maintenance assembly

The syringe if fitted into the upper case and held in position by means of a syringe clamp.

Detection of the syringe size (60 cc or 20 cc) is carried out by two opto-electronic sensors mounted onto the syringe clamp.

The flanges switch ensures the syringe flanges are correctly positioned in the groove. Associated with an opto-electronic sensor, the anti-siphon arm controls the piston position.

Composed of a micro-switch fitted to the plunger, an anti-occlusion system triggers an alarm whenever force on the piston is excessive.

2.2.2 Motorisation assembly

This sub-assembly moves the piston in the syringe.

It is put into motion by means of a motor-reducer unit associated with a screw-and-nut system.

A motor rotation disk mounted on the shaft end of the motor and associated with an optoelectronic sensor controls the rotation.

A potentiometer controls the plunger movement by means of a rack pinion system.

A micro-switch allows for control of the disengagement device.

2.2.3 External connection sub-assembly

The Pilot A2 Events log has three connectors located at the rear end of the lower case:

!A 12-15 V DC, 15 W type external power supply connector.

!An RS 232 connector.

3 Description of the menus

3.1 Configuration menu of the current operation parameters

The configuration menu enables users to adapt the Pilot to the specific needs of each department. It provides access to the menus allowing for customisation of the parameters associated with current operation modes.

Fresenius Vial recommends users to implement the selected configuration procedures in the presence of a member of its qualified personnel or a member of the technical department.

It is possible to exit the configuration mode at any time by pressing the OFF key.

This menu enables users to:

!PAr1: select the type of flow rate memorisation.

!PAr2: select the syringe selection mode.

!PAr3: modify the maximum flow rates which can be selected using the keyboard.

!PAr4: configure the list of syringes that can be selected.

!PAr5: select the compulsory priming.

!PAr7: select the KVO flow rate.

!PAr9: select the RS232 communication speed.

!PArA: select the empty syringe mode.

!PArb: select the frequency of preventive checks.

!PArC: select the drug display mode.

!PArd: choose whether or not to activate the flanges detection mode.

!PArF: select the Bolus memorisation mode.

!PArG: enter the list of drugs.

!PArJ: choose whether or not to activate the mains disconnection signal.

!PAr0: enter the current date and time.
