2.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The design of the housing allows rapid and simple fitting to all suitable
infusion stands and equipment rails. The temperature of the warmer element
can be set between 37°C and 40°C in steps of 0.1°C and is clearly displayed.
The preset temperature after switching on the CH-EIW-02 is 38.5°C. The alarm
and self -test functions for high and low temperature that are incorporated into
the device assure safe operation.

3 INITIAL OPERATION
in detail with the contents of these instructions for use before putting
the system into operation.
3.1 INITIAL OPERATION OF THE DEVICE
Fix the CH -EIW -02 firmly to the infusion stand using the clamps at the back
(Diag .1/8). Only use infusion stands , tripods or equipment rails that are
sufficiently stable.
Connection of the optional tube warmer C & H Tubeflow (to the CH-EIW-02):
The tube warmer C & H Tubeflow must be inserted with light pressure as
indicated in diagram 3 into the intended fixture (Diag. 3/4) on the CH-EIW-02.
Remove the dust cap from the CH-EIW-02 and attach the connector of the
Tubeflow to the female connector on the CH-EIW-02.
Connect the power cable to the power supply. Before connecting to the
mains power supply, check the voltage specified on the device label. The
device emits a short beep and the standby light (Diag.1/4) lights up.

Diag. 2
Position of the tube in the groove of the heat
exchanger
Beginning at the back of the heat exchanger, gently pull the extension tube
and coil it in a counter-clockwise direction towards the front. It is advisable
that the distance between the CH -EIW -02 and the patient does not exceed
much more than 80 cm.
Important: The tube must be completely inserted into the groove (Diag. 2)
The flow direction specified in diagram 1 must be complied with.

DE - Edition 02 / 2007 11
Instructions for Use – CH-EIW-02 C&H
The Tubeflow is also activated when the CH-EIW-02 is turned on; this
is indicated by a green control light on the Tubeflow.
3.2 ALARMS
The low temperature alarm is activated when the temperature of the heat
exchanger drops below 36 °C. The audio low temperature alarm is
deactivated during the first 60 seconds after switching on.
The high temperature alarm is activated when the temperature of the heat
exchanger exceeds 42.0°C. In this event visual and audio alarm signals are
given and the heating is switched off. To reset the device or switch off the
alarm, disconnect the device from the power supply.
Important: The temperature alarm can also be set off externally e.g. by
exposure to sunlight.
After being used for treatment, the device is shut down as follows:
Switch the device into Standby mode using control (Diag.1/3).
Release pressure from the system by switching off possibly used pressure
cuffs or infusion pumps. Empty and disconnect the system as far as possible.
Remove the consumable materials from the heat exchanger (Diag.1/1) and, if
used, also from the optional tube warmer and dispose of in accordance with
the applicable local regulations
Disconnect the device from the power supply and clean and disinfect
according to the section "Cleaning and disinfection".
4 MAINTENANCE
The CH-EIW-02 is designed as a low-maintenance device. To preserve the
quality and functional safety, please comply with the following points:
12 DE - Edition 02 / 2007
C&H Instructions for Use
• Always keep the device clean (see the section: "Cleaning and
disinfection").

section "Periodic inspections")
DE - Edition 02 / 2007 13
Instructions for Use C&H
Do not disinfect the device with steam (i.e. in autoclaves), hot air or
thermochemical cleaning solutions.
6 PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
The periodic technical safety inspections (according to the local standards in
force – e.g.. in Austria ÖVE /ÖNORM E 8751 -1) must be carried out on the
CH -EIW -02 at least every 12 months by persons able to carry out such
technical safety inspections based on their training , knowledge and experience
gained by practical activities.
The results of the periodic inspection are to be documented, together with the
date and the inspecting agency.

absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a
Field strengths from stationary transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular /cordless) telephones and
land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to stationary RF transmitters,
an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which
the CH-EIW-02 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level as specified above, the CH-EIW-02
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures
may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the CH-EIW-02.
