Removing the Administration Cassette
When the infusion is complete, close the clamps, disconnect the administration set
from the patient, and disconnect the administration cassette.
In case of emergency, you can stop pump operation by opening the safety door,
closing the clamps, removing the administration cassette from the pump and
disconnecting the administration set from the patient.
The following procedure describes how to remove the cassette from the pump.
> To remove the Q Core administration cassette:
1. Close all clamps on the administration set.
2. Disconnect the patient from the administration set.
3. Open the safety door (Opening the Safety Door on page 86).
4. At the top end of the administration cassette, loosen the cassette by raising the
metal lock that secures it to the pump.
5. Pull out the cassette, and close the safety door.
Although the AFFV offers automatic free flow protection, a small
amount of fluid (up to 0.09 mL) may be expelled when the
administration cassette is detached. In order to ensure full
protection, disconnect the patient from the administration set
before detaching the cassette from the pump.
