DESCRIPTION
1.1
INTRODUCTION
This
section
includes
general
operating
character-
istics,
physical
description
and
operating
specifi-
cations
for
all
versions
of
the
IMED®
GEMINI
PC-2TX®
Volumetric
Infusion
Pump/Controller
(PC-
2TX").
1.2
OPERATING
CHARACTERISTICS
The
GEMINI
Model
PC-2TX
is
a
two
channel
volumetric
infusion
pump/controiler
used
in
the
administration
of
intravascular
drugs
and
fluids.
Both
channels
are
capabie
of
independent
operation
in
either
the
Pump
or
Controller
delivery
mode.
The
pumping
mechanism
employs
linear
peristaltic
action.
The
peristaltic
action
is
provided
by
a
series
of
12
cam-actuated
fingers
that
sequentially
collapse
then
release,
in
a
ripple-like
action,
the
soft
pumping
segment
of
a
GEMINI
administration
set.
This
action
produces
a
positive
pressure
at
the
outlet
side
and
a
vacuum
on
the
inlet
side
of
the
pump,
thereby
delivering
a
continuous
flow
of
infusion
solutions
reliably,
accurately
and
with
a
high
degree
of
safety.
The
two
channel
configuration
enables
a
variety
of
infusion
techniques
including
independent
primary,
simultaneous
primary
and
sequential
secondary.
Independent
and
simultaneous
primary
infusions
can
deliver
either
a
specified
volume
or
the
entire
contents
("ALL")
of
a
solution
container.
Use
of
the
ALL
setting
requires
installation
and
connection
of
an
Empty
Container
Detector
(ECD)
which
is
available
as
an
optional
accessory.
Sequential
secondary
(piggyback)
infusions
with
independently
defined
delivery
parameters,
for
both
the
primary
and
secondary
solutions,
can
be
provided
on
each
channel.
Operational
contro!
of
the
PC-2TX
is
affected
through
the
control
and
indicator
panel
on
the
front
of
the
instrument
and
the
Audio
Control
switch
on
“the
rear
of
the
instrument.
Basic
operating
instructions
are
printed
on
the
right
side
of
the
instrument
case.
Functional
control
is
provided'by
a
16
bit
micro-processor
with
a
stored
program
that
includes
a
Maintenance
mode
to
monitor
instrument
performance,
an
audio/visual
alarm
subsystem
to
alert
operators
to
abnormal
conditions
and
redundancy
checks
to
confirm
system
accuracy.

PC-2TX

CONTROLLER
MODE
In
the
CONTROLLER
mode,
the
PC-2TX
js
pro-
grammed
to
control
the
infusion
of
a
specific
volume
of
IV
solution.
The
instrument
senses
and
responds
to
patient-side
pressure
and
container
height
in
a
manner
similar
to
a
gravity
infusion.
The
instrument's
pressure
sensor
measures
the
hydrostatic
pressure
from
the
bottle
and
compares
that
pressure
against
distal
tubing
in-line
pressure.
When
in-line
pressure
exceeds
pump
input
pressure,
an
occlusion
condition
exists
and
an
alarm
is
initiated.
Actual
delivery
pressure
is
directly
proportional
to
container
height;
increasing
container
height
raises
and
decreasing
the
height
reduces
occlusion
pressure.
Controller
mode
occlusion
pressure
tolerance
is
+12
(30.5cm)
inches
from
the
bottle
height.
Transient
surges
in
patient-side
pressure
of
<60
seconds
duration
will
produce
a
LOW
FLOW
condition
which
stops
the
infusion
while
the
pressure
is
above
the
occlusion
threshold.
Pressure
transients
above
the
occlusion
threshold
>60

or
cumulative
time
required
to
compensate
for
volumetric
deficiency
caused
by
periods
of
Low
Flow
in
excess
of
30
minutes
will
cause
an
occlusion
alarm.
PUMP
MODE
In
the
PUMP
mode
of
operation,
the
instrument
employs
a
preset
occlusion
pressure
limit
of
10
+2
psi
(69
+14
kPa)
predicated
on
a
nominal
container
height
of
24
inches
(61
cm)
and
a
delivery
rate
>30
mU/nr,
For
delivery
rates
<30
mL/hr,
the
occlusion
pressure
is
rate
dependent
to
ensure
timely
detection
of
occlusion
conditions.
Any
transient
distal
in-line
pressure
above
this
limit
will
generate
a
patient-side
occlusion
alarm.

The
PC-2TX,
when
operating
in
the
Pump
Mode,
can
be
locked
into
a
rate-independent
(10

occlusion
pressure
mode.
This
mode
will
result
in
significantly
increased

for
rates
<30
