6.4. Procedures for tube and plug connections
6.4.1. Connections of fluid supply and drain lines, coupler and power plug
CAUTION
Before and after tube and plug connection, check whether installation environment
conforms to the requirements specified in 6.1.1 of this operation manual.
Connect dialysate coupler tubes to ports “To dialyzer” and “From dialyzer” securely by
full advancing the tubes followed by banding them.
6.4.1.1. Connection of dialysate coupler tubes
(1) Connect tube at blue band side of coupler to dialysate port “To dialyzer” securely by full
advancing the tube followed by banding.
(2) Connect tube at red band side of coupler to dialysate port “From dialyzer” securely by full
advancing the tube followed by banding.
(3) Cut red band any position. Connect CL filter to cutting point followed by banding.
Connect the side of inject port for CL filter to the edge “From dialyzer”.
6.4.1.2. Connections of drain port of machine side
Use tube of an internal diameter of 8 mm and a length of 2 m or shorter to connect to the port.
Fix the connection securely by strapping with metal clip.
CAUTION
By change of height of the tube free end from drain port placed at floor, dialysate
conductivity may be changed due to change of drain pressure. If the height is changed,
check the conductivity.
6.4.1.3. Connection of water supply port
Use pressure resistant tube of an internal diameter of 8 mm.
Fix the connection securely by strapping with metal clip.
6.4.1.4. Connection of power plug
Insert power plug of the machine in receptacle securely by full advancing the plug.
