1.4 Conductivity Monitoring
The conductivity monitoring system in the WRO 300 H has three limits,
allowing for individual adaptation of alarm settings to local preferences
and regulations. The three limits are described in the sections below.
All three limits are set at the factory.
NOTE
If the notification, alarm and stop limits are set to the same value as
the priority of the action are in the order of stop, alarm and notification.
1.4.1 Conductivity Notification (set at 20 µS/cm)
Indicates that the product water conductivity is above normal reading.
It will be issued when the WRO 300 H enters standby mode if the notification limit has been exceeded for more than 30 consecutive seconds
during the previous run period. It may be caused by several reasons
10
P/N 3027436 Rev. C
WRO 300 H
Introduction
such as incipient fouling, degradation of the RO membrane or change
in the feed water quality.
NOTE
If the feed water conductivity is known to vary significantly, the conductivity notification limit should be inactivated by setting it at the
same value as the conductivity alarm, see below.
1.4.2 Conductivity Alarm (set at 30 µS/cm)
The clinic's predefined maximum product water conductivity for water
for dialysis has been exceeded for more than 30 consecutive seconds.
An audible and visual alarm will be issued. The WRO 300 H will continue operation to allow for finishing the dialysis treatment. The buzzer
can be muted indefinitely by pressing , or . The button
remains lighted to indicate that the alarm persists.
1.4.3 Conductivity Stop (set at 60 µS/cm)
The clinic's predefined maximum permissible product water conductivity has been exceeded for more than 30 consecutive seconds. An
audible and visual alarm will be issued and WRO 300 H will stop. The
alarm can be acknowledged by pressing , or . The
WRO 300 H can be restarted. The alarm will reappear and the
WRO 300 H will stop after 30 seconds if the conductivity remains over
the limit.
1.4.4 Setting of Conductivity Limits
•If the intention is to have an early warning of a change in the product water conductivity, set the notification limit at a value between
the normal product water reading and the set alarm limit.
•If the intention is to stop operation in case of a conductivity alarm,
set alarm and stop limits to the same value.
•If, in case of a conductivity alarm, the intention is to allow for continued dialysis in order to finish the ongoing dialysis treatment, set
the alarm limit at the desired limit. The stop limit at which the WRO
300 H will stop then has to be set at a higher value.
To adjust the limits, refer to the Service Manual.
1.4.5 Low Rejection Rate Notification
The rejection rate is the reduction (in percent) of the conductivity of the
water in a reverse osmosis system. It depends on a number of factors
such as conductivity, pH and temperature of the feed water and may
vary significantly from one location to the other. It should therefore not
be considered as an absolute measure of the quality of the water but
rather as an indicator that can help to detect changes in performance
of the WRO 300 H which may be caused by incipient fouling or degradation of the RO-membrane.
The low rejection rate notification default setting of 90 percent is relevant for most inlet water supplies. It may, however, need to be

Introduction
Mains power switch
WRO 300 H
adjusted at installation to a lower value by a qualified technician to fit
local conditions, especially in cases of low feed water conductivity
(<100 µS/cm). The limit should be set at least 5 percent lower than the
initial value recorded at installation.
The low rejection rate notification will be displayed when the
WRO 300 H enters standby if the set limit has been exceeded for more
than 5 consecutive minutes during the previous run period.
1.5 Mains Power Switch

NOTE
The procedure below assume factory settings of the protocol.
NOTE
If the internal water temperature exceeds 45 °C when initiating the
preferred procedure the display reverts to the
CHEM SELECT menu.
This situation is resolved by initiating RUN and letting the WRO 300 H
operate and perform an active cooldown until the temperature is
below 45 °C.
3.1 Heat Disinfection
The required heat disinfection frequency to fulfil the desired microbiological requirements for the product water depends on several factors
such as:
•the quality of the feed water
SELECT menu or the
•local regulations regarding the microbiological quality of dialysis
water, etc.
No general rules can be given that cover all situations. The disinfection
schedule should be based upon microbiological testing performed by
the clinic. A maximum period between disinfections should then be
established to ensure acceptable bacteriological quality of the product
water according to the clinic’s standards.
MCP recommends a minimum frequency of weekly heat disinfection to
ensure consistent microbiological quality of the product water.
If the WRO 300 H will not be used for an extended period of time, regular automated heat disinfection preset by the time channels will maintain the microbiological quality of the product water.
3.1.1 Heat Disinfection Procedure
The following paragraphs describe the heat disinfection of the WRO
300 H and the product water loop.
NOTE
The dialysis machine shall be turned off when the heat disinfection
procedure is performed.
NOTE
The heat disinfection procedure can also be initiated by the time chan-

the Service Manual.
3.2 Chemical Disinfection
NOTE
Chemical disinfection is not required for WRO 300 H units. Heat disinfection is the preferred method to maintain bacterial control.
NOTE
The MINNCARE® disinfection option is disabled at the factory and
can be re-enabled by referring to the Service Manual for instructions.
For certain peracetic acid disinfectants the manufacturer recommends
that the WRO 300 H should be cleaned with an acid cleaning agent in
accordance with the cleaning instructions prior to chemical disinfection
to preserve the RO membrane. Refer to the section, Cleaning on page 24.
The use of an ultrafilter on the dialysis machine will remove possible
contaminants originating from the product water and may therefore be
used as a method to extend the time between chemical disinfection of
the WRO 300 H.
Contact MCP for suitable chemical disinfectant for the procedures.

1. NOTE: UT is the AC mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
2. NOTE: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
3. NOTE: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
4. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/
cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio
broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To
assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in
the location in which the WRO 300 H is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the WRO 300 H should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be
necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the WRO 300 H.
5. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less
than 3 V/m.
