3400 Service Manual
This Technical Service Manual (TSM) together with the Instruction Manual for the 3400, contains the information that is required in order to carry out the following actions to the pump:
operation,
maintenance,
repair.
The TSM is primarily intended to be read and used by suitably qualified personnel.
General
Warnings and cautions
Warnings and cautions are given throughout this manual and are repeated below.
Only qualified personnel should maintain and repair the pump.
The pump's Configuration or Diagnostic mode must only be used by personnel who have been adequately trained in how to use the pump and have been assigned to enter these modes.
The pump must be disconnected from the AC power supply prior to opening the casing.
During the setting of RV1 dangerous AC voltages may be present when the case is open.
Do not immerse the pump in any liquids. Immediately wipe off any liquid accidentally spilt on the pump.
The safety and reliability of the pump may be compromised by the use of parts other than those specified in this Manual.
The pump must be set to display the brand and size of syringe that is going to be used. Using a different brand or size of syringe to the one that is going to be used could lead to the incorrect amount of drug being administered, resulting in injury or death.
When a new Size Sensor Flag has been fitted, then the pump must be tested using the Syringe Size sensor Gauges available from SIMS Graseby (Part No. 0131- 0202). The Appendix, Page 3 gives details of the Final Testing procedures required.
Only items of equipment that conform to EN60950 may be connected to the 9-pin RS232 connector that is situated at the rear of the pump. This conformity will prevent the safety of the patient being compromised.
When using a syringe smaller than 50/60 ml on a pump the occlusion pressure will increase as the diameter of the syringe decreases, i.e. the smaller the syringe the higher the pressure.
The internal pump batteries must be disposed of in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Lead acid batteries must
not be placed in the normal waste stream.
As with all computer electronic equipment, high powered electromagnetic radiation, such as from diathermy eqipment in close proximity, can affect the operation of the pump, although no hazard will be caused.
The pump is not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anaesthetics mixture with air, with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
The Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) contained in the pump are electrostatically sensitive. Use an earthing strap when handling a PCB to avoid electrostatic damage to the com­ponents situated on the PCB. Ensure that replacement PCB are stored in anti-static containers.

3400
ANAESTHESIA SYRINGE PUMP
3400 Service Manual Issue 6 (July 00)
1 — 1
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION, FEATURES, CLASSIFICATION AND SPECIFICATION
The 3400 anaesthesia syringe pump (Fig. 1.1) is based on a micro-controller design and has been purpose developed by Graseby for the administration of anaesthetics, mainly in a hospital operating theatre.
The pump allows a Manually Controlled Infusion, and/or a bolus to be infused using the normal brands of syringe. The infusion entails presetting into the pump both the required infusion rate and the dose of the drug that is going to be used.
The pump can be configured by a suitably qualified person to work with any one of several selected brands of syringe, plus, when converted, the Braun Perfusor syringe. The particular brand of syringe selected will be displayed.
The diameter of the syringe installed is automatically sensed by the pump and from this dimension and knowing the syringe brand the pump is able to calculate and display the following syringe sizes:
5; 10; 20; 30 and 60 millilitres.
The pump is a compact robust unit that is able to function either sitting on a table top or mounted on an IV pole via the pumps pole clamp.
Introduction
Introduction
General information
The pump can be configured to:
deliver a volume or mass unit, manual controlled infusion, or
a volume or mass unit bolus infusion.
A running total of the volume of liquid that has been infused is stored in the pump’s totaliser, and will remain available for display even though the infusion may have been stopped and then restarted. The totaliser can be set to zero when required.
The pump can be operated from AC power or from internal rechargeable batteries. When func­tioning on fully charged batteries, and under normal conditions, the pump gives more than ten hours of continual use.
The AC power can vary between 100 V and 250 V and 50 to 60 Hz, thus allowing the pump to be used anywhere in the world without adjustment.
A battery charging circuit within the pump keeps the batteries charged. The batteries are fully charged when the AC power has been connected to the pump for 14 hours, even though the pump itself may be switched off.
Numerous safety features have been built into both the software and the hardware, and the user is warned of such incidents as a power failure or an occlusion by both visible and audible alarms. The pump carries out a self-testing routine each time it is switched on.

Development of 3000 series
Brief history of SIMS Graseby bedside syringe pumps
MS2000
The first Graseby bedside syringe pump was the MS2000. This was a basic syringe pump capable of infusions within the range of 0.1ml/hr to 99.9ml/hr. It had a totaliser, a limited infusion capability, a built in pole clamp and was designed for vertical operation. The MS2000 was powered by an AC supply or its internal DC batteries. This pump is no longer manufactured by SIMS Graseby.
PCAS
The PCAS pump was developed from the MS2000 to satisfy the growing interest in Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA). The PCAS was very similar to the MS2000 in both appearance and mechanical design, but utilised a different micro-processor with the capability of running the extra features required for PCA and was eventually replaced by the 3300 pump. A printer port was also incorporated. This pump is no longer manufactured by SIMS Graseby.
3000
The first pump in the 3000 Series of syringe pumps was the 3000 itself. This pump was designed as a low-cost alternative to the MS2000 and satisfied the need for a horizontally mounted pump. The 3000 did not have an internal battery supply. This pump is no longer manufactured by SIMS Graseby.
3100
The 3100 syringe pump was developed from the 3000. It is very similar mechanically but the electronic design is superior. Dual processors were incorporated along with a vacuum fluorescent text display and internal batteries. The maximum infusion rate was increased to 199.9 ml/hr and different syringe sizes were able to be used (automati­cally sensed). Extra software features, such as the intelligent ‘near end’ alarm, were also incorporated. This is the only pump in the 3000 Series that is not fitted with an RS232 connector.
3300
The next bedside syringe pump to be developed was the 3300. This was similar in mechanical and electronic design to the 3100 but the features were specifically for the now more mature PCA market. A lockable syringe cover was added for security against drug theft, a four line LC display was added, and internal history recording (1500 events) with printout was also added. With the growth in PCA knowledge in the medical community, many more software features were incorporated into the 3300 to aid PCA administration.
3400
The 3400 was developed (again from the 3100) to satisfy the need for a high speed infusion pump for intravenous anaesthesia. Advances in micro-controller technology allowed the use of a single device to control all the pumps features. The maximum infusion rate was raised to 1200.0 ml/hr and bolusing facilities were also added. Later, an infusion rate calculation facility was added to the software.
A larger liquid crystal display was used on the 3400 with the ability to display text in different sizes, also ‘soft-keys’ were used to make the user interface simpler. The range of syringe sizes that could be used was also increased. For more advanced applications the pump could be controlled by a computer.
(contd.)
1 — 6 Issue 6 (July 00) 3400 Service Manual
Development of 3000 series
Brief history (contd.)
3200
The 3200 was developed as a general purpose syringe pump. Wet-side pressure sensing, intermittent infusion capabilities, and computer interfacing were added. The wet-side occlusion pressure monitoring made the pump particularly suitable for use in intensive-care baby units. A large text vacuum fluorescent display was added, and the increased syringe size range of the 3400 remained.
A DC input supply (10 V to 28 V DC) version of the 3200 is also manufactured by SIMS Graseby. This variant is primarily intended for use in an aviation environment.
3500
There are two versions of the 3500, as follows:
1. A Manually Controlled Infusion (MCI)
only
pump.
2. An MCI
plus
a Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) pump.
The 3500 was developed from the 3400 and retains all the 3400 facilities.
The ‘MCI
plus
TCI’ pump carries out a TCI using the Diprivan drug. This version of the 3500 incorporates a Diprifusor module manufactured by Zeneca Pharmaceuticals. A new main circuit board and new software allows the 3500 to interface with the Diprifusor module.
A 3500 non- TCI pump can be converted to become a 3500 MCI
plus
TCI pump.
3150
The 3150 is very similar to the 3200 general purpose pump. The main difference being that the In-line (wet-side) pressure sensing system in not available on the 3150, i.e. the pressure transducer is not fitted.

Max Rate
For example, even though the maximum continuous infusion rate for the BD Plastipak 50 ml syringe is 400 ml/h (see Table 2.1), if the Configuration MAX RATE is set to, say, 200 ml/h then the syringe will only be able to infuse at up to 200 ml/h.
Thus the Configuration MAX RATE setting can be used to control, in preset steps, both the continuous infusion (up to 400 ml/h) and the bolus infusion (up to 1200 ml/h).

WARNINGS The following procedures must only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Electric shock hazard The pump
must
be disconnected from the AC power supply before opening the
casing.
Disassembly and assembly of casing
The casing of the pump will have to be opened in order to carry out any adjustments that may be required to the occlusion thrust, and also for various setting up and repair procedures. These procedures are detailed in Chapters 4 and 5.
1. Disconnect the AC power connector and utilising a scratch free flat surface, turn the pump over in order to gain access to the base of the pump.
2. Undo and retain the six screws that hold the two halves of the pump casing together. One of the six screws is situated in a channel in the rear cover.
3. Place the pump upright and from the top carefully ease the two halves of the casing apart, taking care not to put any strain on the internal connecting cable looms that form a hinge between the two halves of the casing.
1. Each time the casing has been taken apart and reassembled the syringe size functional tests detailed on page 6-1 must be carried out.
2. Being careful not to trap any leads, assemble the casing by reversing steps 2 and 3 detailed above, ensuring that the two case halves have ‘snapped’ together and that the front and rear mating edges are equal and parallel. The screws should be tightened to a torque of between 70 and 75 cNm, and in the order shown in the diagram below:

Syringe stiction
Occlusion thrust
Thrust measurements
The two most frequently used methods to measure the point at which an occlusion occurs are the thrust and pressure methods.
At the present time SIMS Graseby set the occlusion by using a thrust measurement proce­dure. This method measures the plunger clamp thrust by using a set of weights (as de­scribed below), but has the slight disadvantage that the characteristics of the syringe have to be taken into account.
The occlusion pressure is obtained by measuring the pressure that occurs in the infusion line. This in-line method gives a good accuracy (better than 5%) over a wide range of pres­sures, but also has the slight disadvantage of requiring a disposable that is unique to the pump being measured.
The internal occlusion sensing system within the pump is always active.
The occlusion thrust checks must be carried out whenever the super nut assembly is dismantled.
Translation of the thrust depends on the syringe diameter and the stiction of the syringe. The formula for calculating the thrust is given below:
T = P x A +S
732 1
where: T is the thrust in kg,
P is the delivery pressure in mmHg, A is the cross sectional area of the syringe in cm2,
and S is the syringe stiction in kg.
The occlusion thrust of the pump is factory set to be between two limits (i.e. a minimum and a maximum tolerance). The customer may reset the thrust for their own particular require­ment. The thrust of a particular pump may, therefore, differ from the original factory set level.
The occlusion thrust of the 3400 pump is factory set at Graseby’s to be between
5.7 kg and 6.2 kg (767 mmHg and 834 mmHg).
Stiction for a syringe varies from brand to brand as well as from batch to batch. Stiction can be as low as 0.1 kg and as high as 2 kg. The stiction of some syringe brands has been found to be particularly high.
Stiction can also vary along the plunger travel and is usually lowest in small diameter syringes. Using a sample syringe and allowing for a safety margin for sticky syringes, adjustments can be made by measuring the thrust generated. If the stiction characteristics of a syringe are known then by using the formula given above the occlusion thrust can be set.

Thrust checks
Occlusion thrust
The thrust checks that are detailed below use the weights that correspond to the factory set occlusion threshold levels for a 3400 (i.e. 5.7 and 6.2 kg). If a different occlusion level setting is required then the weights will have to be adjusted accordingly.
The thrust adjustment procedures are detailed on page 2-8.
1. Set the pump's plunger clamp to approximately midway along its support tube.
2. Remove the plunger from a BD 60 ml syringe and then saw the end off the syringe (see
Fig. 2.1). Place this modified syringe onto the pump so that it will act as a guide for the weight support rod and also position the size sensor flag.
3. With the pump switched ON, set the infusion rate to 200 ml/hr.
4. Place the pump in a vertical position, with its left hand side uppermost (see Fig. 2.1).
5. Place the weight support rod through the modified syringe and onto the pump's plunger
clamp.
6. Place a weight of 5.7 kg on top of the weight support and check that the pump
operates for at least 30 seconds and does not occlude (i.e. the alarm does not sound). Remove the weight.
7. Place a weight of 6.2 kg on top of the weight support and check that within 30
seconds the pump does occlude (i.e. the alarm sounds).

2 — 8 Issue 6 (July 00) 3400 Service Manual
If the occlusion thrust requires adjustment then the following procedures will have to be car­ried out:
1. Switch the pump off and disconnect the AC supply.
2. Take the casing apart as detailed on page 2-5.
3. If necessary rotate the leadscrew to reveal the grub screw that is located on the occlusion adjusting nut. Loosen the grub screw with a 1.5 mm hexagonal key.
4. Alter the setting of the occlusion adjusting nut as necessary. One full turn of the adjusting nut using a 50\60 ml syringe gives approximately 2.73 kg (369 mmHg) of adjustment.
Rotating the adjusting nut in order to decrease the tension on the leadscrew spring will decrease the pump's occlusion setting.
Rotating the adjusting nut in order to increase the tension on the leadscrew spring will increase the pump's occlusion setting.
5. Tighten the grub screw.
6. Temporarily assemble the two halves of the pump, being careful not to trap any leads.
7. Carry out the thrust checks detailed on page 2-7.
8. In order to obtain the thrust required it may be necessary to repeat steps 2 to 7 above.
9. Finalise the assembly of the pump casing (see page 2-5).
10. Carry out tests No 9 and 10 detailed in the functional test procedures (see page 6-3).

CHAPTER 3
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
This Chapter explains how the 3400 operates. Reading this chapter will help a technician to rectify any possible faults that may occur within the pump.
The functional descriptions of the pump may be divided into five separate areas, and each of these functional descriptions have been detailed separately in the descriptions that follow:
Drive system.
Occlusion sensing system.
Electro/mechanical control system.
Sensing (alarm) systems.
Software.
Introduction
The motor, gearbox, leadscrew and associated components (see Fig. 7.1) are mounted on a glass reinforced polycarbonate casing. The strength of this casing enables a precise mechanical location to be achieved for the various components.
Both the inner and outer metal tubes are made of substantial material in order to eliminate all unwanted flexing.
The drive system comprises a DC motor working through a gearbox in order to rotate a leadscrew. A half nut assembly engages onto the leadscrew, and the assembly is also con­nected to a steel tube. The steel tube is in turn connected to the plunger clamp.
As the motor spindle rotates the
leadscrew
rotates and the
half nut assembly
travels to the
left, along the
leadscrew
. The
half nut assembly
pulls the outer of two steel tubes to the left. This outer tube travels over and along a support tube; the support tube is the length of the pump. The plunger clamp moves with the outer tube pushing ‘in’ the syringe plunger.
Drive system
DC motor and leadscrew
The DC voltage applied to the motor is derived from a pulse width modulated output from the processor.
A spring-loaded toggle mechanism is attached to the bottom of the half nut. This toggle mechanism enables the plunger clamp to be physically swung ‘in or out’ thus rotating the outer metal tube so that the half nut is either fully ‘engaged or disengaged’ (respectively) from the leadscrew.
When the plunger clamp is pulled down the
half nut
engages with the
leadscrew,
and the
clamp itself engages with the end of the syringe.
The syringe plunger slots into place behind a slotted pair of lips. These lips prevent the syringe plunger from moving forward in the event of negative pressure on the syringe.
Two small push-buttons on the edge of the plunger clamp make contact with the top of the syringe plunger. These push-buttons control the operation of a
lever
which protrudes from
the plunger clamp.
