Warning
Risk of injury from electrical voltage
All devices with accessible metal parts must be incorporated in the
potential equalization zone.
Warning
Risk of injury as a result of an electric shock
If treatments are performed with the aid of central venous catheters
positioned in the atrium, the following points must be observed:
– Connect the device to the potential equalization zone of the
installation.
– The use classification is Type B.
– The device must be removed from the patient environment
(1.5 meters away in all directions), as the contact current or patient
leakage current is greater than the corresponding limit values for
Type CF applied parts.
The limit values for patient leakage currents for Type CF applied parts
are:
– 10 µA AC / DC (normal case, no fault)
– 50 µA AC / DC (in case of first fault)
 If you have any questions, contact the local service support.
Warning
The user must not touch the patient and the connector contacts / socket
contacts of the device at the same time – there is a risk of a resulting
patient leakage current.

Hydraulic unit
Note
Compliance with EN 1717
When a water pretreatment (e.g., softener) is used, a pipe disconnector
or other protective device for category 2 liquids is essential.
Warning
Material strength
All the tube lines connected and the drain pipe must be resistant to /
must not be corroded by concentrated salt solutions, hot water up to
90 °C, or dialysis waste water (e.g., do not use cast-iron drain pipes).
Warning
Contamination hazard
 All the hydraulic connections must be cleaned / disinfected on a
regular basis.
 To prevent aerosols forming in the drainage area, it is advisable to
use only sealed drains (MSP, MSR, MediaP, MediaR, or MediaC
design).
 Open drains should not be used.
 Always avoid splash water.
 Flush the drain regularly (to prevent it from drying out).
 Check the drain funnel regularly and clean it depending on the
degree of contamination of the run-off liquid.
Note
 Using a softener with an open brine tank in the intensive-care sphere
is not generally recommended.
 Flush the entire water treatment unit regularly when it is not being
used for treatment.

1.2.6 Normative prerequisites for system expansion
Warning
Additional equipment that is connected to medical electrical equipment
must be shown to comply with the applicable IEC or ISO standards
(e.g., IEC 60950 for data processing equipment). Furthermore, all
configurations must comply with the requirements for medical electrical
systems as stipulated by the relevant standards (see IEC 60601-1-1 or
paragraph 16 of IEC 60601-1:2005 respectively).
The person who configures the system is the person who connects
additional equipment to medical electrical equipment. He is therefore
responsible for ensuring that the system complies with the requirements
for the system. Note that local laws take priority over the above-mentioned
requirements. If you have any questions, please contact your local
specialist retailer or technical support.
Warning
Operator hazard
Changes or modifications to the device outside the scope of its intended
purpose are not permitted.
Warning
The use of multiple sockets or extension cables is prohibited.
 External connection options
Any additional equipment connected to this device must be shown to

comply with the applicable IEC or ISO standards (e.g., IEC 60950-1 for
information technology equipment).
Furthermore, all device configurations must comply with the
requirements for medical electrical systems as stipulated by the
relevant standards (see chapter 16 of and Annex I to EN 60601-1:2006).
IT networks Connecting the device to an IT network that contains components not

installed and validated by the manufacturer can introduce unknown
risks for patients, operators, or third parties.
Standard These risks must be identified, analyzed, evaluated, and monitored by

the responsible organization. For assistance, consult IEC 80001-1:2010
and Annexes H5 and H6 to EN 60601-1:2006.

Any modification to an IT network that has been installed and validated
by the device manufacturer can introduce new risks and therefore
require a repeat analysis. Especially problematic activities include:
– Modifications to the IT network configuration

– Connection of additional components and devices to the IT network
– Removal of components and devices from the IT network
– Updates or upgrades of components and devices in the IT network

ISO standards
The Feed water tank ist the ideal system to meet the requirements of the ISO dialysis water quality standards.
ISO 11663:2009 – Quality of dialysis fluid for haemodialysis and related therapies
ISO 13959:2009 – Water for haemodialysis and related therapies
ISO 26722:2009 – Water treatment equipment for haemodialysis applications and
related therapies
Key features & functionality
Functional description – A feed water tank is used if the volume of feed water available
from the domestic water supply is insufficient. Generally a booster
pump assembly must be installed downstream of the feed water
tank. The feed water tank is installed downstream of the backwa-
shing filter to prevent deposits in the tank.
Integrated functionality – Dead-space free design

– Integrated leakage monitoring
– Functional test:
The functional test is performed during operational qualification of
the water treatment line as no fluid is present in the system during
installation. The switching activities of the two fill level sensors
must be checked:
– Opening and closing of the feed water inlet valve.
– Stopping of the booster pump assembly when running dry.
Leakage test:
The leakage test is performed with the complete water treatment
line.
– With the tank filled, check all connections for leakage.
Options
– External leakage sensor option

– AquaB connection set
– Flat gasket Vulcanfiber 38 x 27 x 1.5 mm
– Flat gasket 39.5 x 30 x 2 mm EPDM
– Flat gasket 39.5 x 30 mm Unitec green t=2 mm

Pure sand filters with a downstream microfilter often fail to adequately

purify water containing turbidity (e.g. silicates). In many cases, the SDI
value remains at a critically high level.
In these situations, a filter with the naturally occurring ceramic filter
medium zeolite provides a lower cut point.
Zeolite is a naturally occurring ceramic mineral that has a highly porous
structure as a result of its volcanic origin.

1.18 STANDARD / BASIC Big Blue (20") particle filter
1.18.1 Particle filter selection table
Note
Preferential use
 The following selection table is decisive for the selection of the
particle filters.
Permeate volume up to 2000 L/h up to 4000 L/h
Single 5 µm
Single 20 µm
Dual 5 µm
Dual 20 µm
 Functional description
The particle filter, downstream of the backwashable prefilter, is the

second filtration stage for the incoming feed water. In the first fine
filtration stage, it retains particles. This applies to cases where no sand
filter and / or activated carbon filter is used in water pretreatment.
Should the water analysis reveal that the use of a sand filter is required,
the particle filter must be installed downstream of this filter.
Tip
Applicability of general information
The general information regarding assembly as well as functional and
leakage testing applies to the following chapters.
 Sizing / configuration
 Depending on the configuration of the system (feed water supply,

see selection table), the water inlet filter is designed as a single or
dual filter with a Big Blue 5 µm (20").
 With standard filtration, use the 20 µm filter cartridges.
