Instructions for use Isolette 8000 plus SW 5.n 75
Getting started
7.2.8 Weighing system (option) functional check
The weighing system functional check should be performed before the system is
first placed into service and after any disassembly for cleaning or maintenance.
CAUTION
Risk of patient injury
Incorrect weight measurements could interfere with therapies.
► Do not use the scale if it fails to function as described in the functional check
procedure.
► Refer service to qualified personnel.
7.2.8.1 Standard scale
1 Ensure that the bed is level and not in the Trendelenburg or Reverse
Trendelenburg position.
2 Activate the Weighing system (see Standard scale measurements on page 94).
The Weight display appears.
3 Remove any objects from the bed.
4 Press the ->0/T<- button twice (see Buttons on page 42).
5 Verify that the Weight display reads zero.
The weight sampling bar searches for weight samples and shows the weight
sampling progress.
6 Place a weight of known value, but less than 7 kg (15 lb), on the bed.
7 Verify that when the weight sampling bar stops searching, a beep sounds.
The weight sampling bar is filled, and the weight is then locked and displayed
in the Trend/Alarm window.
8 Reweigh the object (see Reweigh on page 96).
9 Verify that the display again shows the value of the weight on the bed.
The correct weight is shown.
7.2.8.2 OIML/NAWI scale (if installed)
Verify that the latitude and altitude recorded on the OIML/NAWI scale calibration
label on the back of the incubator are correct for the geographical location of
use. Verify that the serial number of the scale in the incubator matches the serial
number on the scale calibration label on the back of the incubator.
If the OIML/NAWI scale is moved to a different geographical location, the scale
must be recalibrated. Also, the Isolette 8000 plus controller must be
reconfigured, and the scale calibration label on the back of the incubator must
be updated with new latitude and altitude values. OIML/NAWI scales can only
be calibrated by service personnel.
