Principles of Operation
Syringe pumps use a series of sensors and a
motor driven plunger head to infuse liquid at
a precise rate
Inputs
Outputs
AC
Moving Plunger
Full syringe
Liquid released at
steady rate
Principle of Operation
Chassis contains:
LCD screen
Alarm to alert user of failures and other
issues that need attention
Power supply
2 power distribution boards
Memory capabilities
Records doses, rates, and settings
Principles of Operation
Chassis contains:
Flange clamp sensor
Determines if syringe flange is present
Position sensor
Determines how far plunger head is from
chassis
Principles of Operation
Chassis contains:
Motor and worm gear
Smoothly moves plunger head outwards
Unidirectional
Principles of Operation
Plunger head contains:
Force sensor
Syringe plunger pushes
against sensor
Springs attached to
plunger flippers and
force sensor detect
presence of syringe
plunger
Applications
Infuse fluids, medication or nutrients into
circulatory system
Administers fluids more reliably than humans
Improve patient safety by increasing
consistency and accuracy
Assist in investigation of incidents by collecting
data in memory
Safety
Always use PPE
Read manual before using
Operation
Place syringe in three clamps (flange,
barrel, plunger flippers)
Designate infusion settings on screen
Press start
Bolus option: quickly moves plunger head to
prime syringe
Preventive Maintenance
Preventative Maintenance
Examine plug and line cord
Verify battery chargers and indicators are working
Check suggested replacement date for the battery to see
if the date is passed or approaching
Calibrate machine as necessary
Check for unusual noise or vibration
Examine internal cables and connectors
Lubricate as required by syringe pump manufacturer
No power
Battery not holding charge
No display
Bad keypads
Broken handles
Flash memory errors
Plunger sensor errors (syringe)
