4-6 Describing the MCS+ Disposable Collection Material
P/N 85213-30, Manual revision: B
Blood pump “stops” and tubing
These elements, found on disposable sets which do not utilize the Transfer pump,
will secure the pump tubing in preparation for pump autoloading.
Note: Pump tubing can be easily distinguished because it is more elastic. This
elasticity helps to reduce twists and occlusions when the tubing is thread around
the pump rotors.
Dual-pump manifold adapter
The adapter is necessary when using MCS+ disposable sets which do not require
the Transfer pump. It adapts the tubing which contains pump “stops”, so that it
can be secured on the dual-pump housing, during autoloading and operation of
the MCS+ Blood pump. It also contains specific identification information.

Note: These elements should not be discarded after use, but saved for subsequent
MCS+ collection procedures.
Bowl connector
This element on the harness-in section attaches the donor-line tubing assembly
to the inlet port of the centrifuge bowl.
DPM line section The 0.22 µm hydrophobic filter on this section links the disposable set to the
MCS+ donor pressure monitor. The filter also provides a bacteria-free connection
between the disposable set and the DPM.
There is a slide clamp on the tubing leading to the DPM filter. The clamp is used
when connecting and disconnecting the filter from the DPM.
