GENERAL INFORMATION
Introduction
The CardioQuip Modular Cooler-Heater (MCH) brings easy and accurate temperature control
to the operating room. The latest touchscreen technology offers fast, user-friendly, multi-
language device control. Redundant software and hardware failsafes ensure patient safety. A
combination of audible and visual alerts enable effective monitoring without undue
distraction. Conscientious design declutters the perfusionist’s work area to allow more
workspace. Thanks to intelligent features such as self priming, automatic defrost, and
patented Adaptive Temperature Control technology, the MCH requires significantly less
operator intervention than traditional cooler-heaters, giving the perfusionist more time for
patient care.
Indications for Use
The CardioQuip Modular Cooler-Heater (MCH) is indicated to supply temperature-controlled
water to heat exchange devices (e.g.; Cardiopulmonary Bypass Heat Exchangers) to help
control a patient’s temperature during extracorporeal circulatory support and/or thermal
regulation procedures lasting not longer than six hours.
The MCH is intended to be operated by, or under the supervision of, a qualified perfusionist.
This device is not designed, sold or intended for use except as indicated. While there are no
known contraindications, use of the MCH for purposes other than those indicated places
responsibility for performance and results with the user.
Expected Service Life
The MCH, when properly maintained and operated according to these instructions, should
provide at least ten years of reliable service in a typical hospital environment.
Manual Conventions
This Operator’s Manual uses the international alert symbol to indicate critical safety and
operational information. The alert symbol followed by a WARNING denotes an instruction or
procedure which, if not carried out correctly, may result in injury to the technician, the patient
or other personnel. The alert symbol followed by a CAUTION denotes an instruction or
procedure which, if not carried out correctly, may damage the MCH or connected equipment.
The water symbol indicates sterile or 0.22-micron filtered water use only.

GENERAL INFORMATION | Warnings and Precautions

WARNING: Servicing of this unit shall be performed by authorized CardioQuip
technicians only. Improper repair can result in patient injury and/or damage to the
system.
WARNING: This device must not be connected to a heat exchanger or blanket with
a manufacturer recommended maximum pressure rating of less than 83 kPa (<12
psi). Rupture or leakage may occur in the heat exchanger, resulting in patient injury and/or
damage to the system.
WARNING: The MCH must be properly cleaned and disinfected prior to operation
or storage to prevent high microbial count or residual chemicals that could cause
equipment damage.
WARNING: During clinical operations, do not drain equipment connected to the
MCH. Draining attached equipment will drain the entire heat exchanger network.
WARNING: U.S. law restricts this device for sale to, or use by or on the order of, a
licensed physician.
WARNING: Do not perform reprocessing procedures in operating or patient
rooms.
CAUTION: Read this complete Operator’s Manual before using this device.
CAUTION: No modification of this equipment is allowed.
CAUTION: Use a dedicated 20 Ampere AC “Hospital Grade” grounded (protectively
earthed) outlet for the MCH.
CAUTION: This equipment is designed to function properly in the presence of
radio frequencies typically encountered in a hospital operating room
environment. Some RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical
equipment. The operator should assure that this equipment functions properly in the
specific environment in which it will be used.
CAUTION: This device must be disconnected from the power source before
inspecting, reprocessing or preparing this device for use.
CAUTION: Do not operate the system with less than 4 inches (10cm) of sterile or
0.22-micron filtered water in the water tank, or completely drain the system
while in an operating mode. Dry operation will cause equipment damage.
CAUTION: The water tank should remain covered to prevent debris from entering
the system or water vapor from escaping, and to minimize the loss of ice
temperature.
CAUTION: Do not use acetone-based cleaning solutions to clean the unit. Acetone-
based cleaning solutions will cause equipment damage.
CAUTION: Use only CardioQuip approved cleaners and disinfectants. Operation with
unapproved agents may cause equipment damage.

GENERAL INFORMATION | Limited Warranty

Storage
If the MCH is to be stored for more than seven (7) days, ensure that the unit is drained and
cleaned per the Quarterly Maintenance Procedure listed under the Maintenance section.
The system can be safely stored after performing this procedure. The system and system
accessories shall be stored drained and dry (see System Drain and Tank Drain sections). The
MCH shall be stored in an environment where the temperature range is within 0°–43°C (32°–
100°F), and the relative humidity is less than 95%.
Transportation
The MCH should be transported in either the original carton, or an equivalent carton, to
prevent damage during shipment. If the unit has been in contact with blood, blood
components, or body fluids, it must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected per the Quarterly
Maintenance Procedure before packing. The MCH should not be exposed to environmental
conditions outside of those listed in the Storage section.
Lifting
The MCH-1000(i) should be lifted by no fewer than 2 persons, and should be drained prior to
being lifted. Use proper lifting techniques to avoid injury. The lift points are located at each of
the four corners. The lifters’ hands should be wrapped tightly around the wheelbase frame
projections at each corner. For short lifts (e.g., assisting the MCH over low obstacles such as
cords or thresholds ≥10mm), the convenience handles may be used with care. Facing the
MCH, with your back to the obstacle, grasp the handle with both hands, with an underhand
grasp, and lift upward on the handle while pulling the MCH toward you, over the obstacle.
CAUTION: Do not lift the MCH by the drain or water/hose connections. Lifting
by these connectors will cause equipment damage.

Operation Overview
The MCH operating software serves two basic functions. First, it provides an intuitive, feature-
rich touchscreen control interface, giving the operator quick access to temperature settings,
pump speed control, system test and status information, and customization features. Second,
it constantly monitors the MCH’s internal systems to ensure that the hardware is functioning
properly. An alarm will sound within seconds of any operational problem, alerting the operator
to the issue.
The operator controls the MCH using an LCD touchscreen display, using four basic modes. In
TESTING mode (which is run automatically when the system is powered on), the MCH tests all
internal relays and displays the results to the operator in a simple pass/fail format. In STANDBY
mode, the system is idle, awaiting operator input. In PRIMING mode, the MCH operates the
pump and valve to remove air from the tubing lines. In RUN mode, the device circulates the
water through the water tank and the heater chamber as necessary to maintain the circulating
water at the operator-selected temperature.
The MCH is designed with EMI protection to operate effectively with minimal interference from
other nearby equipment. It is shielded so that electronic noise generated within its enclosure
will not affect operation of other equipment in use in the same area as the MCH.
Add Ice!
The MCH uses sterile or 0.22-micron filtered ice-based cooling and has a valved, insulated
water tank that is able to retain ice for a considerable length of time. For procedures that do
not require extensive cooling, the MCH will operate safely and effectively with room-
temperature sterile or 0.22-micron filtered water in the tank; however, the temperature control
algorithms are optimized for the use of sterile or 0.22-micron filtered ice water. The MCH will
operate more efficiently with water (0-10˚C) in the tank.

OVERVIEW | Operation Overview

CONTROL SCREENS
Power-on
When the Mains Power Switch is first
turned on, the CardioQuip logo will appear
on the Control Unit screen along with the
text, “Initializing...” to indicate that the MCH
is booting. After approximately five
seconds, the MCH will enter operational
mode. If this screen remains active for
more than a few seconds, check the
connection between the Control Unit and
the Main Unit.
Water Level
The water tank must contain at least four
inches (10 cm) of sterile or 0.22-micron
filtered water for basic operation. If at any
time the tank water level drops below safe
operating level, the Control Unit screen will
display the Low Water warning screen
shown at right. An audible alarm will sound
a two-beep pattern at 20 second intervals.
The alarm may be silenced for 60 seconds
by touching the Alarm Silence icon at the
bottom left corner of the screen.
Note: When the Refrigeration Module is installed, the tank
should be filled to the top edges of the chiller plates with sterile
or 0.22-micron filtered water.
CAUTION: Operating the MCH without water will cause equipment damage.
15

System Test
On startup, the MCH enters TESTING mode and runs a system test to verify proper operation
of all internal components. Onscreen indicator lamps display the status of control and
feedback signals for the various internal systems, and the “Test Status” column (far right)
displays the test results. If any test fails, its “Test Status” will display a red “X” symbol and the
FAILURE screen will appear. Touching the button will retry the system test. The MCH
will not enter operational mode if any internal system test fails.
Once the system test has successfully completed, the operator must press the
button to enter Standby mode.
This symbol is the Temperature Differential indicator. When
displayed onscreen, it indicates that the measured temperature
differential between the MCH’s two internal temperature
controllers is greater than 2.5˚C. This is usually caused by
blocked or impeded water flow. Check the water path to be sure
connectors are fully seated, hoses are not kinked, valves are fully
open, and the internal recirculation valve (if so equipped) is fully
in either the NORMAL or INTERNAL position. If the MCH runs in
this condition for more than ten seconds, it will automatically
cease operation and display a FAILURE screen.

Standby
CAUTION: At the end of a system test, the audible alarm will sound once. The
operator must verify that the alarm is audible within the operating
environment.

Standby
In STANDBY mode, the pump and heaters are off, and the operator is able to preset the
desired temperature and other settings in preparation for entering RUN mode.
To set the desired temperature in tenth-degree
increments, touch the or temperature
control button. Holding the button for more
than one second will cause the temperature
setting to change more rapidly. Alternatively,
touching the “SET POINT” temperature field will
cause a numeric keypad to appear onscreen,
allowing direct input of the desired temperature.
After entering the desired temperature, touch
the button to confirm, or touch to
cancel.
To modify the customizable message at the top right of
the screen, touch the message field to bring up an
alphanumeric keypad onscreen.
After entering the desired customized message (up to
12 characters; e.g., “CARDIOPLEGIA”), touch the
button to confirm, or touch to cancel.
The temperature setting, temperature presets, and customized message are stored in
non-volatile memory, and will be retained until changed.

Priming
From the STANDBY screen, touch the button to enter PRIMING mode. While the MCH
is designed to be largely self-priming, running a priming cycle will remove all air bubbles from
the lines, offering quieter operation and better heat transfer. During the priming cycle, the
pump runs at high speed, and the cooling control valve automatically alternates the water flow
between cooling mode and recirculating mode every ten seconds. No operator intervention is
required. The MCH may be returned to STANDBY mode at any time by pressing the
button.
The standard priming cycle length is 2 minutes, but touching the Extended Prime button
—the stopwatch icon to the left of the countdown timer—will increase the priming cycle
length to 10 minutes. This feature is most useful when performing the Quarterly
Maintenance procedure.
During priming, if the pump speed setting is below maximum, the MCH will automatically
override the setting for the duration of the priming cycle. When this occurs, the PUMP SPEED
label will change to an OVERRIDE label. Once priming is complete, the pump speed will return
to the preset.
