Smart-Vue Administrator Manual Thermo Fisher Scientific
• For timely notification of an emergency/alarm, it is critical to
establish primary, secondary and tertiary call-out procedures with
escalation so contact is not dependent on reaching one individual.
Ideally, ultimate contact is with a security department or company
with 24/7 monitoring.
• When routing cable for Smart-Vue sensor (if necessary), avoid direct
contact with or close proximity placement of the sensor cabling with
any high voltage wiring. Cabling should be placed with no less than a
minimum of 5 cm (2 inches) distance from high voltage components.
Also, avoid running the sensor cable in parallel with high voltage
wiring.
• For all other manufacturers’ equipment, contact the manufacturer of
the instrument for instructions regarding proper placement of the
Smart-Vue end-point sensor.
Please see the relevant product manuals included on the Smart-Vue
CD-ROM for details on installing Smart-Vue receivers and Smart-Vue
Server/Smart-Vue Client software.
2.1.3.4 Proper device handling Smart-Vue end-point modules must be handled with care to avoid
damaging any of the internal or external components. As common sense
would dictate, you must not drop end-point modules or subject them to
undue shock.
Two cases in particular are worth mentioning:
CO2 end-point module care
•CO
2
sensor end-point modules must be removed from the interior
chamber of incubators or ovens if operating at temperatures above
50C, such as in the case of a heat sterilization cycle.
• Do not spray CO
2
sensor end-point modules with liquid cleaners. Use
a soft cleaning cloth as described in the preceding section.
Differential pressure end-point module care
• Disconnect the plastic tubes from the Smart-Vue end-point module
before decontaminating a room where pressure is being monitored.
This is to avoid damaging the internal sensor with aggressive solvents
and cleaning products.
