MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
ANNUAL CERTIFICATION OF CALIBRATION
Verathon
®
recommends that the BVI 3000 be certied by an authorized Verathon Service Center once a year.
Certication service includes a comprehensive inspection and testing of the instrument in order to ensure
accurate measurement performance. For more information, please contact the Verathon Service Center or your
local distributor.
If the calibration due date for your BVI 3000 has passed, the message “Calibration Due” will appear every
time you turn on the instrument. You can still measure bladder volume; however, this message will continue to
appear until an authorized Verathon Service Center calibrates the instrument.
PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
WEEKLY INSPECTIONS
Once a week, you should inspect the control unit, scanhead, cable, power supply, power cords, batteries, and
plugs for damage or cracks. Cracks that allow the ingress of uid into the control unit or scanhead may affect the
performance of the instrument. Any apparent cracks or faults in the control unit, scanhead, or the cable that links the
control unit and the scanhead must be referred to your authorized Verathon Service Center or your local distributor.
MONTHLY ACCURACY CHECK
Each month, or whenever accuracy assessment is desired, you should test the accuracy of the instrument
according to the instructions in the procedure Verify Instrument Accuracy on page 47.
