Introduction

General

Description

The Model SA0972AW and SA0972AC Uroflow Transducers measure the weight

increase as fluid enters a graduated beaker placed on top of the transducer.

The Uroflow Transducer is calibrated to produce an output that is proportional to the

change in volume. The unit does not incorporate a display of the signal output.

Rather, the signal output is displayed on a digital channel of the recording device to

which the transducer is connected.

Uroflow

Transducer

Troubleshooting

Guide

The troubleshooting tips in this table will help you identify the possible causes of

problems you may encounter when using the Uroflow Transducer.

If…

Then…

The amount of

fluid in the

graduated beaker

and the reported

voided volume

don’t match.

•

•

•

Maintenance of

the Uroflow

Transducer

If the volume discrepancy exceeds ± 20 ml, the Uroflow Transducer may

have been damaged and require recalibration. Contact Technical Service

to make arrangements to return the unit for service.

Consider the possibility that the patient kicked the graduated beaker with

sufficient force to simulate the onset of flow. This would have started

recording and, if the patient did not begin voiding before the recorder’s

Post Void Delay timeout, the unit would have ended recording and printed

before fluid entered the graduated beaker. This is usually seen as a sharp

spike on the Uroflow waveform, followed by no further activity. Refer to the

recording system’s operator’s manual for more information.

The patient may have voided intermittently with long pauses. If a pause is

longer than the Post Void Delay setting in the urodynamic recorder

software, the unit ends recording, analyzes and prints. Refer to the

recording system’s operator’s manual for more information.

WARNING: Disconnect mains AC power to the system before conducting

any regular maintenance.

To maintain your Uroflow Transducer in optimum operating condition, do the

following:

1.

Have the instrument tested and calibrated to the factory specifications shown

on page 7, every 12 months.

2.

Protect the instrument from fluid spills and keep it free of dust and particulate

residue from infusion solutions, body fluids, etc. This is particularly important

when using contrast medium. Contrast leaves a sticky, thick, corrosive

residue and must be cleaned immediately. The procedures for cleaning and

disinfecting equipment follow.

3.

Protect the Uroflow Transducer from physical damage such as getting

stepped on or kicked during use, or damaged during floor cleaning.

CAUTION: The transducer platter

on Uroflow Transducer Models

SA0972AC or SA0972AW should

never need to be removed. If you

must remove it, unscrew it

counterclockwise until it comes

free of the transducer body.

Pulling the transducer platter

off instead of unscrewing it will

cause damage to both

components, which will void the

unit’s warranty.
