Occlusion Pressure Range Tests<br />
Occlusion Pressure Range Test I<br />
Description<br />
Pressure is generated by activating the pumping mechanism with an<br />
attached filled, clamped Medication Cassette Reservoir. The pump is<br />
started and fluid is injected until the high pressure alarm sounds.<br />
Equipment needed<br />
50 or 100 ml Medication Cassette Reservoir containing distilled water<br />
1-ml syringe<br />
Procedure<br />
1. Insert 2 AA batteries or turn pump on and wait for the pump to<br />
power up.<br />
2. Attach a Medication Cassette Reservoir containing water to the<br />
pump.<br />
3. Prime the Medication Cassette Reservoir tubing. The tubing<br />
should be filled with fluid to the end of the Luer lock connector.<br />
The system must be free from air bubbles for this test.<br />
4. Withdraw the plunger of the empty 1-ml syringe to the 1.0-ml<br />
marking. Now attach the syringe to the end of the Medication<br />
Cassette Reservoir tubing.<br />
5. Start the pump.<br />
6. When the pump is running, slowly depress the plunger of the syringe,<br />
noting when the High Pressure alarm is activated.<br />
7. The pump should alarm when the syringe is between 0.5 and<br />
0.1 ml.
