TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The Quantum Blood & Fluid Warming System has been tested and found to comply with recognized
standards for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interferences in clinical use environments. The System generates
radio frequency energy and should be installed and used in accordance with these instructions.
Essential Performance:
The Essential Performance of the Quantum Blood & Fluid Warming System is to indicate outow uid temperature
when at or outside the pre-set temperature range (≥ 36 to < 44ºC at steady state) to the Operatoand to detect proper
operational status.
Essential performance is conrmed by verifying start-up LED sequences of the Battery and Controller upon connection.
This conrmation should be performed before each use of the System. Upon connection, all three (3) Battery RED LEDs
will blink simultaneously with or without an audible tone (depending on whether the Audible Alert System is enabled)
while the Controller initiates its start-up sequence (i.e., LED ash sequence: blue, yellow, green,clear ).
