Warning(s)
•Device (electrocardiograph, Class I) captures and presents data reflecting a patient’s physiological condition that when reviewed by a trained physician or clinician can be useful in determining a diagnosis. However, the data should not be used as a sole means for determining a patient’s diagnosis.
•To ensure that electrical safety is maintained during operation from AC (~) power, the device must be plugged into a Hospital Grade outlet.
•To maintain designed operator and patient safety, peripheral equipment and accessories used that can come in direct patient contact, must be in compliance with UL 2601-1, IEC 601-1 and IEC 601-2-25.
•Patient cables intended for use with the ELI 250/210 include series resistance (10 Kohm minimum) in each lead for defibrillation protection. Patient cables should be checked for cracks or breakage prior to use.
•Conductive parts of the patient cable, electrodes and associated connections of Type CF applied parts, including the neutral conductor of the patient cable and electrode should not come into contact with other conductive parts, including earth ground.
•To maintain designed operator and patient safety, only use parts and accessories supplied with the device and available through Mortara Instrument, Inc.
•ECG electrodes could cause skin irritation and should be examined for signs of irritation or inflammation.
•To prevent possible infection, single use components (e.g., electrodes) should be limited to one-time use only.
•To avoid the possibility of serious injury or death during patient defibrillation, do not come into contact with device or patient cables. Additionally, proper placement of defibrillator paddles in relation to the electrodes is required to minimize harm to the patient.
•To ensure the safety of both the patient and the device, 1.5 meters (5 feet) of open area should surround the patient.
•A possible explosion hazard exists; do not use the device in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
iv
•Before attempting to use the device for clinical applications the operator must read and understand the contents of the manual and any documents accompanying the device.
•Where the integrity of external protective earth conductor arrangement is in doubt, the ELI 250/210 shall be operated from its internal electrical power source.
•All signal input and output (I/O) connectors are intended for connection of only devices complying with IEC 60601-1, or other IEC standards (e.g. IEC 60950), as appropriate to the device. Connecting additional devices to the ELI 250/210 may increase chassis and/or patient leakage currents. To maintain operator and patient safety, consideration should be given to the requirements of IEC 60601-1-1, and leakage currents should be measured to confirm no electric shock hazard exists.
•The ELI 250/210 has not been designed for use with high-frequency (HF) surgical equipment and does not provide a protective means against hazards to the patient.
•The quality of the signal produced by the electrocardiograph may be adversely affected by the use of other medical equipment, including but not limited to defibrillators and ultrasound machines.
•The ELI 250/210 uses a lead-acid gel cell battery. Disposal of this battery must be in compliance with governmental regulations.
•This unit can operate using AC power. Caution should be taken when working on this unit to limit the exposure to high voltages. The unit should not be connected to AC power and the battery fuse should be removed when replacing any assembly of this unit.
v
Caution(s)
•To prevent possible damage to the keypad, do not use sharp or hard objects to depress keys, only use fingertips.
•Do not attempt to clean the device or patient cables by submersing into a liquid, autoclaving, or steam cleaning. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a warm water and mild detergent solution and then dry with a clean cloth.
•No user serviceable parts inside. Screw removal by qualified service personnel only.
•The rechargeable internal battery is a sealed lead acid type and it is totally maintenance free. If the battery appears to become defective, refer to Mortara Instrument Service Department.
•Do not pull or stretch patient cables as this could result in mechanical and/or electrical failures. Patient cables should be stored after forming them into a loose loop.
Electrostatic Caution
•
Notes
•Excessive patient movement could interfere with the operation of the device.
•Proper patient preparation is important to proper application of ECG electrodes and operation of the device.
•There is no known safety hazard if other equipment, such as pacemakers or other stimulators, are used simultaneously with the ELI 250/210; however, disturbance to the signal may occur.
•If the ECG amplifier input is out of normal operating range, the display will indicate a lead fail for the lead(s) where this condition is present and if the signal is being printed, the respective lead(s) will print out as a square wave.
vi
•As defined by IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-25, the device is classified as follows:
•Class I equipment or internally powered
•Type CF applied parts
•Ordinary equipment
•Not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anesthetics
•Continuous operation
NOTE: From a safety perspective, per IEC 60601-1 and derivative standards / norms, this unit is declared to be “Class I” and uses a three-prong inlet to ensure an earth connection is made along with mains. The ground terminal on the mains inlet is the only protective earth point in the unit. Exposed metal accessible during normal operation is double insulated from mains. Internal connections to earth ground are functional earth.
•The ELI 250/210 will automatically turn off (blank screen) if the batteries have been severely discharged.
•After operating the ELI 250/210 using battery power, always reconnect the power cord. This ensures that the batteries will be automatically recharged for the next time you use the ELI 250/210. A light will illuminate, next to the on/off switch, indicating that the unit is charging.
•The ELI 250/210 is a UL Classified Device:
WITH RESPECT TO ELECTRIC SHOCK,

Cleaning and Inspecting Techniques
This section contains instructions for periodic cleaning and inspection of the instrument as preventative maintenance measures. It also contains specific cleaning procedures to be conducted after disassembly. Parts having identical cleaning procedures are grouped under common headings. No special tools are required.
Interior Cleaning
WARNING
Ventilate work area thoroughly when using solvents. Observe manufacturers warnings on solvent containers with regard to personnel safety and emergency first aid. Be sure that first aid equipment is available before using chemicals. Observe all shop safety and fire precautions.
Magnetic Cleaning
CAUTION
Do not use solvents to clean transformers or inductors. The chemical action of solvents may remove the varnish from the wire coils, rendering the components useless. The solvent also neutralizes the adhesive of the cover tape, resulting in eventual tape separation from the windings.
Clean transformers and inductors with a dry, non-metallic, soft bristle brush.
Printed Circuit Board Cleaning
The printed circuit board assemblies in the ELI 250/210 system contain static sensitive devices. Use special handling procedures to prevent damage due to ESD.
Clean assembled parts with a vacuum cleaner or low pressure compressed air (30 psi). Take care when cleaning printed circuit boards that wires or component leads are not bent back and forth in such a manner as to weaken them and cause them to eventually break.
Dry with low pressure compressed air.
2-2
____________________________________________________________________________Section 2
Metallic and Plastic Parts Cleaning
CAUTION
Do not wipe over surfaces of nameplates or labels with abrasive cleaners or materials, as this will eventually wear away the nameplate information. Do not use solvents to clean plastic parts.
Brush all surfaces and parts with a nonmetallic, soft bristle brush.
Wipe metal surfaces with soft, nonabrasive cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol.
Dry surfaces with clean cloth.
Wipe surfaces of nameplates and labels with dry cloth.
Exterior Cleaning
Use a damp cloth to clean external covers and the line cord. Do not use alcohol, solvents, or cleaning solutions. These cleaning agents may damage the surfaces of the instrument.
Printhead Cleaning
Open the writer cover as explained in the section on final assembly.
Apply isopropyl alcohol to a clean cloth, and wipe the writer printhead until all foreign matter is removed. Dry the printhead thoroughly before use. Use a dry clean cloth for this.
After cleaning is completed, inspect the unit using the techniques described previously.
After the inspection is complete, install the cover as explained in the section on final assembly.
Inspection of Writer Assembly Harness
Visually inspect the wire harnesses for wear, maintenance damage, corrosion, deterioration, and damage resulting from dropping.
If no defects are found, install the cover and restore the unit to service.
If a defect is found in the cables, replace the damaged cable with a new cable.
2-3
ELI 250/210__________________________________________________________________________
Exterior Inspection
Visually inspect the entire instrument for wear, maintenance damage, corrosion, deterioration, and damage resulting from dropping.
Interior Visual Inspection
Check all connectors for loose, bent or corroded contact points
Check wire, harnesses and cables for signs of wear or deterioration.
Inspect components and their leads for security of mounting, deterioration or leakage.
Check terminals and connections for proper installation, failed soldering, loss or wear.
Inspect PCB surfaces for charring, cracking or brittleness.
Note: Some degree of discoloration of the PCB surface may be expected due to continued exposure to the operating temperatures of some of the components.
Check the identification nameplate and other decals for legibility.
Inspect chassis, covers, and brackets for warping, bending, surface damage or missing captive hardware.
Check all screws and nuts for tightness or signs of stripped or crossed threads.
Check for any other form of mechanical damage, which may indicate a failure.
If, during the process of normal maintenance or repair, the PCB assembly, AC connector assembly, or writer assembly are removed and replaced, perform the leakage test as describe in the section on Testing and Troubleshooting.
