General Information
The Jorvet IV Fluid and Blood Transfusion Warmer is a dry- heat device. This unit is
designed to warm IV fluids safely through the heating plate. The Warmer does not
control the fluid flow rate. Fluids can be warmed to temperatures between 95º-107.6º F
(35ºC-42ºC) at flow rates 25ml/hr to 1000ml/hr.
PrecautionsSave this Manual for Future Reference
▪IMPORTANT: Before using the Jorvet IV Fluid and Blood Transfusion Warmer,
please read and understand this User’s Guide and the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
prior to use. If you have any questions, please contact Jorgensen Laboratories at 1-
800-525-5614.
▪Carry out the inspections and maintenance periodically according to the manual to
avoid patient or user injury,
▪This operation manual is only used by professional trained Veterinary Personnel.
Warnings
(1) This device is used for heating the infusion, blood transfusion and can be used
only by the professional trained Veterinary Personnel.
(2) Securely attach the Warmer to an IV Stand to prevent damage to the unit by
sliding down or dropping to the floor.
(3) The unit should only be used with the power cord that came with the unit and is
not shared during the use of the Warmer.
(4) It is not allowed to use voltage other than that specified on the product label, or it
could cause damage or a fire.
(5) Inspect the Warmer and all accessories completely before use to verify it is
working in a safe manner.
(6) Do Not only rely on the Warmer’s Alarm to notify of a problem, the Warmer
should be monitored throughout the infusion.
(7) Stop the use of the Warmer during an alarm
(8) Do Not connect other brand heating devices or other brand heating accessories to
this Warmer as it could lead to wrong heating temperature or dangerous infusion.
(9) Keep the infusion line straight and unfolded to prevent a long-term occlusion and
heating to fluids/blood for long period of time.
(10) Do Not use the Warmer where there is strong sunlight, cold & hot, wind or a
dusty environment.
(11) Microwave will influence the function of the Warmer. All other devices next to
the Warmer must meet the EMC standard. Mobile phone, X-Ray or MRI will be
the cause of a malfunction due to its high frequency radiation.

3 | P a g e
(12) It is not allowed to dismantle or modify the Warmer. Opening the shell may cause
electrocution. Maintenance or upgrade to the Warmer must be done by authorized
staff from Manufacturer.
(13) Check the Warmer daily and check all the functions to determine it is in good
condition if it is not used for a long period.
(14) Turn off the Warmer and contact Jorgensen Laboratories 800-525-5614 when
a malfunction has occured.
Introduction
The use of room temperature (70ºF/21ºC) IV fluids in a patient suffering from shock,
or susceptibility to hypothermia should be avoided. Ideally fluids should be
administered as close to body temperature as possible for better therapeutic results.
Blood products are refrigerated or frozen prior to administration.
Application
It is intended to provide continuous heating during the infusion and blood transfusion.
Working Principle
The Jorvet IV Fluid and Blood Transfusion Warmer is an indirect heating device (dry
warmer). The IV fluids are heated as the fluids pass through the channel of the
warmer. The temperature can be set between 32⁰C ~ 42⁰C (89.6⁰F ~ 107.6⁰F. The
heating control board will work upon the set temperature.
Components and Function
The Jorvet IV Fluid and Blood Transfusion Warmer is made up of the following
parts:
▪Main control system: This system controls the whole unit by managing and
processing the system
▪Heating device: The heating device is made up of a heating sheet and heating
exchanger; this allow the heat to move through the exchanger to heat the fluid
▪Detection sensor: This includes a temperature detection sensor
▪Alarm System: The alarm includes an audio and visual alarm
▪Input and Display: This allows for the input of the heating parameter,
temperature, alarm message and other parameters.

User’s Operation
Operation Steps:
1. Hang the warmer on the IV pole, adjust the strap to the appropriate length
Note: If the infusion pump is being used, the IV Warmer should be placed
slightly under the IV line’s exit from the infusion pump.
2. Use the knob to tighten to the IV Stand
3. Prime the IV set line removing all air bubbles
4. Open the door of the warmer
5. Install the IV Set end from the top to down inside the heating path and select the
path based on the IV set length and heating requirement
•Long Heating Path, heating length approximately 52cm

8 | P a g e
•Middle Heating path, heating length approximately 31cm
•Short Heating Path, heating length approximately 25cm
6. Connect the power cord to the Warmer, the Warmer will automatically start once
the power cord is connected to the warmer. Once the power cord is disconnected
the Warmer will automatically turn off.
7. Adjusting the Temperature: In the standby mode, press , to set the
temperature in increments of 0.1⁰C
9. Adjusting the Temperature unit setting: In the standby mode, press to set
C or F unit. It will display once the unit is selected.
10. Start the warmer after confirming the settings by pressing Start/Stop to
start the warmer. It will start warming based on the temperature that has been set.

Appendix
Note:
•If adding other accessories, sensors or cable can increase the electromagnetic
emission and lower the anti-electromagnetic interference.
•Do not place other equipment next to the Warmer or overlap equipment with
the warmer. If it is required to do so, monitor the Warmer to ensure that it is
working properly.
•The Warmer must be maintained and installed in the environment complied
with the EMS Standard
•Avoid operating the Warmer during the operation of a MRI or similar
devices, it will cause the unit to breakdown from the electromagnetic
interference.
•CISPR Emission Standard equipment may also interface the Warmer
•The Temperature will become inaccurate if the input signal range is lower
than the specified lowest range.
•Interference of RF communication Equipment may interfere with the
performance of the warmer.
