7.0 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PLAN
The T° HOLD®temperature controller should be verified once every five (5) years).
The following items are needed to accurately measure the bag temperature for
verification:
oFluke 51 II Digital Thermometer.
o6.00˝long .093˝Diameter Type T Needle Thermocouple calibrated to the
Thermometer.
To verify the temperature controller.
1. Pre-warm to 40°C (104° F) a 1000 ml I.V. fluid bag for the size T° HOLD®being
calibrated to 40°C (104° F).
2. Remove the outer wrap from the fluid bag.
3. Pierce the bag through the needle injection port on the bag with an 18 ga needle to
make it easier to insert the Thermocouple.
4. Place the bag into the T° HOLD®and secure the bag to the Heater Plate with the
I.V. Bag Strap.
5. Insert the Thermocouple into the bag and position the probe in the center of the
bag, both front to back and from side to side.
6. Turn on the T° HOLD®. Allow the unit to operate for a minimum of one (1) hour
before verifying the temperature.
7. After the allotted time, the temperature reading on the Fluke Thermometer should
be within one (1) degree Celsius (two [2] degrees Fahrenheit) of the factory preset
temperature.
8. If the two temperature readings are within one degree (1) Celsius (two [2] degrees
Fahrenheit) of each other, the temperature controller has been verified. If they are
not, please contact Medical Solutions, Inc., at 800-435-7600.
