NOTICE Product water used to prepare dialysate, concentrates from powder at a dialysis facility, or
to reprocess dialysers for multiple use, should contain a total viable microbial count less
than 100 CFU/ml and an endotoxin concentration less than 0,250 EU/ml. The action level for
the total viable microbial count in the product water shall be < 50 CFU/ml and the action level
for the endotoxin concentration shall be < 0,125 EU/ml. If these action levels are observed in
the product water, corrective measures, such as disinfection and retesting, shall be taken
promptly to reduce the levels into an acceptable range.
NOTICE After a downtime of more than 72 hours, it is recommended that disinfection be executed
before the next treatment.
NOTICE If total viable microbial counts in Aquaboss® EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) are monitored on
a monthly base disinfection must be carried out whenever the action limit for total viable
microbial counts is exceeded but latest after 3 months (after citric acid cleaning). If the RO
system is monitored less frequently, preventive disinfection on a monthly base is recom-
mended. However, when system has not been in use for more than 72 h (system off) we
recommend disinfection. Extra disinfection is always necessary when hydraulic parts have

Opening screws or valves can lead to injury!
• Insufficient water quality in the intake can cause an inferior and impermissible product quality (see the
requirement → part 1, chapter 2).
• Changing process parameters (e.g. pressure, temperature) may effect water quality.
• If the system comes to a sudden standstill, the operator must not immediately change to another mode
of operation. The system may have been brought to a standstill so that manual adjustment can be
made. Switching the system on again without warning could lead to severe injuries.
• Avoid any contact with the product to be processed if it is a health hazard. First-aid treatment is to be
given in-house in the case of contact with the product.
• A daily report is to be drawn up on the conductivity values etc. in accordance with the medical device
log → part 2, chapter 8.
• If the permeate output is reduced by more than 20%, it is recommended that the number of connected
consumers be reduced by the same amount so that the functioning of the individual connected devices
is not affected.
WARNING Safety equipment is not to be modified, removed, bypassed or bridged.
• It is forbidden to run the pump dry!
WARNING Improper operation of this device could result in a low or no-flow alarm on the hemodialysis
machine.

1.2.3 Safety during repair, servicing and maintenance

When the switch cabinet is open:
WARNING High voltage
• The RO must be switched off by the main switch (1) and disconnected from the power supply before
starting maintenance and repairs!
• When working on pumps and pressurized pipelines, these must be depressurized first to prevent
injuries.
• Immediately renew any damaged or removed instruction and warning signs or safety labels.
• All dismantled safety equipment is to be properly refitted after repair work has finished.
• Operator conversions or modifications to the system can impair safety for persons and the system;
as a result such modifications and changes are forbidden.
• If the RO has a permanent connection, the system must be disconnected completely from the mains
using the upstream separator. (Supply cable, connection terminals and network filter to prevent
electromagnetic influence are located before the RO's main switch (1). (See IEC 61010-1/6.11.3)
IMPORTANT Only original spare parts, accessories and consumables from LMW are to be used
→ Spare part list TM080.
LMW does not accept liability for damage caused by the use of other spare parts,
accessories and consumables.
1.2.4 Risks due to non-observance of safety instructions

Not observing the safety notes can endanger the operator and/or the patient. Non-observance can lead to
the following risks (among others):
• Failure of important system functions
• Failure of prescribed methods of maintenance and disinfection
• Danger to persons through electrical and mechanical means

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
1.3 Microbiological safety
When used properly, the RO produces water to dilute haemodialysis concentrates.
The permeate quality is influenced by:
• The raw water quality
=> observing the national guidelines is required
• The pre-treatment (hardness, chlorine, heavy metals* …)
• The loop (size, material)
• Cleaning and disinfection cycles
After commissioning, the system is handed over in perfect working order (inc. microbiological test)
The operator is responsible for heeding the legal specifications (AAMI/ANSI/ISO 23500:2009
Guidance for the prepartion and quality management of fluids for hemodialysis and related
therapies and AAMI / ANSI / ISO 13959:2009 Water for hemodialysis and related therapies),
including the microbiological quality.
WARNING Never operate the water treatment system on microbiologically unsafe water supplies,
deionized water, or RO water. Use of another water supply other than properly treated
municipal water supplies may result in biological contamination of the entire RO flow path or
improper reading on water quality monitor.
NOTICE LMW recommends that a chloramine test be run on the system before each treatment.
The acceptable levels are shown in → part 1, page 2-1 (ff) of this operating instructions.
NOTICE Product water used to prepare dialysate, concentrates from powder at a dialysis facility, or
to reprocess dialysers for multiple use, should contain a total viable microbial count less
than 100 CFU/ml and an endotoxin concentration less than 0,250 EU/ml. The action level for
the total viable microbial count in the product water shall be < 50 CFU/ml and the action level
for the endotoxin concentration shall be < 0,125 EU/ml. If these action levels are observed in
the product water, corrective measures, such as disinfection and retesting, shall be taken
promptly to reduce the levels into an acceptable range.
It is recommended that the permeate be tested for its microbiological quality at least every six
months (see → part 1, chapter 2 Bacteriology, pyrogenics).
If the total germ count exceeds 50 CFU/ml, disinfection is recommended within 7 days (action limit).
A continuously high germ load can lead to the development of biofilms. Biofilms can usually be
eliminated only by a combination of mechanical and chemical cleaning.
Exceeding the limit set out by the legal specifications (see → part 1, chapter 2) requires immediate
cleaning and disinfection (alarm limit).

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
1.4 Residual risks

WARNING Residual risks remain despite the measures taken to avoid such risks.
Residual risks are potential hazards which are not apparent, e.g.:
• Risks which can result from the product or rinsing medium, such as allergies, inflammation of the skin
or burns.
• Risks arising as a result of control system irregularities.
• Danger caused by improper behaviour of the operator.
1. Electric shock
The osmosis system EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) is operated with an electrical voltage of 208V (AC). Improper
opening of the switch cabinet or damage to the electrical cables can cause electrocution (risk of fatal
injury!).
Any work on the system that requires the switch cabinet to be opened or contact with the connection
cables may only be carried out when the system has been switched off (main switch to “0”) and dis-
connected from the power supply!
If the RO has a permanent connection, the system must be disconnected completely from the mains
using the upstream separator.
(Supply cable, connection terminals and network filter to prevent electromagnetic influence can be
located before the RO's main switch (1) (see IEC 61010-1/6.11.3)).
2. Noise
A noise level of less than 80 dB (A) is measured up to a distance of 0.5 m from the system.
However, the noise level can increase in a location in which several sources of noise are positioned, thus
requiring hearing protection. Therefore it is recommended that an additional noise level measurement be
carried out if there are several devices in one room, and all the groups of personnel (cleaning personnel,
operators etc.) should be informed about individual measures for hearing protection.
IMPORTANT There is a risk of the entire water treatment system becoming contaminated if the system is
at a standstill for a longer period of time.
This is also applicable for the connected pipelines if these are not automatically rinsed.
IMPORTANT After a period of standstill (> 72 h), carrying out disinfection or hot-water cleaning (option)
is recommended.

4. Use in combination with other equipment
The operator combines the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) with further medical devices such as loops, media supply
units or dialysis machines.
The EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) and further medical devices can be put into circulation independently of one
another. No combination of medical devices will be put into circulation by the manufacturer as a variation.
The manufacturer, Lauer Membran Wassertechnik GmbH, stipulates the following reverse osmosis system
requirements for combination with other equipment:
• When used in combination with permeate loops, these must be implemented in accordance with
AAMI/ISO 23500:2009.
• When used in combination with media supply units (Medical Product Class I), the tapping points for
permeate must be implemented in accordance with ISO 23500:2009.
• Furthermore, the dialysis machine must comply with standard IEC 60601-2-16 (Special requirements
for the safety of haemodialysis, haemodiafiltrations and haemofiltration units) or the first issue of
standard IEC 60601-2-16.
IMPORTANT At the point of connection potable water a backflow prevention must be installed!
NOTICE The operator must ensure that the devices function and are in the proper condition before
using the combination of devices.
NOTICE It must be ensured that additional equipment that is connected to the analogue and digital
interfaces of the device satisfies the appropriate IEC specifications (e.g. IEC 60950 for data
processing devices, IEC 61010-1 for measuring/control/laboratory devices and IEC 60601-1
for electro-medical devices). Furthermore, all configuration must satisfy the valid version of
IEC 60601-1-1. The person who connects additional equipment to the signal input or output
sections is a system configurator and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the valid
version of system standard IEC 60601-1-1 is observed. If you have any questions, please
contact your local dealer of the Technical Services department.

functions including the disinfection mode in an individual and reproducible way.
Special advantages
• Operator-friendly operation thanks to the menu-guided control system with plain text display
• Low water consumption including rinsing water for Aquaboss® softener and standstill rinsing
• Shut-down and standstill rinsing with leakage monitoring during standby mode
• Membrane blockage protection using Aquaboss® impulse back washing
• Optional impulse shear force rinsing
• Durable stainless steel design
• Mains separation / unhindered input in accordance with national safety standards
• Option: Hot sanitation of the 1st and 2nd membrane stage (only for EcoRO Dia I/II (HT))
5.1 How it works

The treatment of water (for requirement see → part 2, chapter 7) by a reverse osmosis system results
in purified water (permeate) which is characterized by very low values for the chemicals within the water.
The separation rate of the undesired chemical contents is over 95%!
The permeate quality for water for diluting haemodialysis concentrates is defined Standard
AAMI/ANSI/ISO 23500:2011 (see → part 1, chapter 2).
The EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) works on the reverse osmosis principle. Reverse osmosis describes a process
involving a pressure-operated cross-filtration system. The water flows under high pressure (up to max.
22 bar / 319 psi) tangentially over a semi-permeable membrane. As is the case with normal filtration, the
system is cleaned by allowing one component (water) of the mixture to be separated to pass through the
membrane with almost no hindrance, while the other components (dissolved and undissolved water con-
tents) are held back to a greater or lesser extent and leave the filtration unit in the concentrate flow. This is
a purely physical separation process in the molecular range which does not change the components being
separated either chemically, biologically or thermally.
A polyamide membrane (nonporous polymer membrane) is used. The material transport through such
a membrane type can be described in high accordance with experimental results on the basis of the
solution diffusion model. This model views the polymer membrane as a real fluid in which the permeands
dissolve and are diffusively transported along the gradient of their propelling force.

5.2 Constructional features

5.2.1 Aquaboss® impulse back washing (option)

During normal operating mode of the reverse osmosis system, deposits can accumulate on the membrane
(see → figure 5-1 “Permeate mode / Dialysis operation”) depending on the quality of the supply water.
Depending on their origin, they can cause long-term damage to the membrane, thus reducing the
permeate quality.
Figure 5-1: Permeate mode / Dialysis operation
In order to increase the lifetime of the membrane, patented impulse back washing (IRS) is carried out at
regular intervals in the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT).
Here, reversing the flow direction loosens the deposits and rinses them out via the concentrate flow
(see → figure 5-2 “Impulse back washing”).
Impulse back washing provides a constant permeate quality and a high production efficiency.

Figure 5-3: Membrane module with no dead space
Thanks to the new design of the membrane module (patented), it is ensured that the dead space between
the outside of the membrane and the inside of the pressure pipe is continually flushed. All the connections
for raw water, concentrate and permeate are located on the top of the module.
5.2.3 Single pipe construction

The single pipe construction ensures the membrane a long service life. The membrane pipe is made of
stainless steel (316L).
5.2.4 Minimum dead space piping in stainless steel

A minimum of dead space throughout the entire system has been provided. Moreover, the risk of biofilm
growth on the pipe walls is restricted to a considerable extent by the high flow rate with the resulting shear
forces.
5.2.5 Hot water sanitization (option)

• The types EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) include Hot-Water-Treatmentsystems HotRinse SMART 10-50 – and its
connected loop-system.
During Standby operation the RO can be treated with hot water up to 85°C / 185°F.
This mode substitutes or exceeds the chemical disinfection in order to enhance microbiological quality of
the permeate.

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
6.2 Functions
NOTICE Technical overview: see → part 2, chapter 7.13.2 “Operating modes”.
6.2.1 Water supply

Feed water is made available through a pretreatment installation with the appropriate capacity. It includes
softener, activated carbon filter and pre-filter systems, → see part 2, chapter 3.1.1.
To protect the reverse osmosis system, mechanical contamination that is still present is removed by
means of a filter element (VF) on the RO rack.
6.2.2 Supply tank

The pre-treated water enters the supply tank (VL) through feed valve Y10. The water level is recorded and
controlled using level switch LSHL2.
The built-in centrifugal pumps are safeguarded against lack of water by level switch LSHAL1 (pump pro-
tection). If the level drops below the lower switchpoint, the pumps switch off.
IMPORTANT Due to operational safety, the positions and switchpoints of the level switches LSHAL1 and
LSHL2 may not be changed.
The following are connected to the supply tank:

• Internal circulation via Y2
• Soft water intake via Y10
• Loop return via UV1
• Soft control (optional)
• Overflow
• Bypass valve Y30 to the overflow valve for the loop return (optional)
• Ventilation and venting filter (tank respiration)
6.2.3 Single stage reverse osmosis system EcoRO Dia I (HT)

The raw water flows over a 5 µm pre-filter and enters the free intake to the supply tank VL via the
solenoid Y10.
From there, it is delivered by means of pumps M1 and M2 to the membrane modules MM1.1 and MM1.2
by passing through a reverse osmosis membrane. The “feed flow” is divided into the concentrate flow and,
following passage of the membrane barrier, the permeate flow.
The concentrate flow leaves the membrane module through the needle valve NV4 which restricts the
volume of water discharged and ensures a constant production pressure. The concentrate pressure can
be read off on manometer PI2.
The concentrate flow regulated in this way is either re-circulated through solenoid valve Y2 back into the
supply tank or is conducted to the drain outlet through solenoid Y9. The cycle rate of Y2/Y9 and thus the
regulation of the concentrate amount to be discharged depends on the amount of permeate removed and
the set yield factor WCF. The amount of concentrate to be discharged is calculated from the upstream
FISCAL1 and return (FISCAL2) of the loop and recorded using FISCAL3.
The permeate flows through the opened solenoid Y5 and past PSAH1 and CISAHH1, whereby the para-
meters permeate pressure and quality are monitored. The amount of permeate is recorded by flowmeter
FISCAL1 before it enters the loop. In larger systems, part of the permeate amount produced flows back
into the supply tank through the overflow valve UV2 if the amount removed is too low in order to keep the
loop pressure constant.

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
The permeate enters the loop, which can be blocked by ball cock K6, via a hose bridge. The water flows
through the surge tank DG and is guided to the individual tapping points. Ball cock K7 can be used to block
the end of the loop. An additional hose bridge is used to reconnect the loop to the reverse osmosis system.
The permeate flowing back from the loop passes sampling cock PH2, pressure sensor PSAL4, water
meter FISCAL2 and the overflow valve UV1 during its return to the reverse Osmosis system. The loop
pressure set at UV1 can be read off on manometer P16.
6.2.4 Dual-stage reverse osmosis system EcoRO Dia II (HT)

The permeate generated in the 1st membrane stage (→ chapter 6.2.3) flows at an increased pressure to
the 2nd membrane module via pump M3. In this further reverse osmosis membrane, the “feed flow” is
divided into the concentrate flow and, following passage of the membrane barrier, the permeate flow.
The concentrate flow leaves the membrane module and passes through the needle valves NV2 and NV4
which restrict the volume of water discharged and ensures a constant production pressure. The pressure
set by the needle valves can be read off on manometer P14. The regulated concentrate flow is guided
back both via the solenoid valve Y8 into the supply tank and upstream of pump M3.
The permeate is carried further into the connected loop in the same manner as for the fittings listed in
→ part 1, chapter 6.2.3 “Single stage reverse osmosis system EcoRO Dia I (HT)”.
6.2.5 Impulse back washing (IRS), 1st stage

Impulse back washing (IRS) of the first membrane stage of the EcoRO Dia I HT and EcoRO Dia II HT
can be used to clean the membrane and provide preventative protection from biofilm formation (see
→ part 1, chapter 5.2.1). By closing solenoid valves Y5 (permeate exit), Y2 (internal circulation), Y9
(concentrate drain) and Y6 (swell valve) with the M2 pump running, pressure can be built up, and is sub-
sequently relieved by opening the solenoid Y6. For this, solenoid valve Y4 closes and Y3 opens to reverse
the flow direction. During swelling, solenoid valve Y6 is opened and the water flow is guided upstream of
pump M2 so that the membrane can be flooded by a higher overflow for a defined period. This procedure
will be termed “impulse back washing” in this document.
6.2.6 Impulse back washing (IRS), 2nd stage

Impulse back washing (IRS) can also be used for mechanical cleaning of the 2nd membrane stage.
Here, pump M2 transports feed water to the closed solenoid valves Y7, Y5 and Y8 to build up pressure.
By opening Y7 and Y8 and transporting additional water via M2 to M3, water flows at an increased speed
over the second stage membrane for a short time.
The increased concentrate flow speed removes the deposits on the membrane to a large extent and thus
maintains permeate capacity long term. During this flushing procedure, permeate valve Y5 remains closed.
6.2.7 System production pressure

The amount of permeate increases proportionally with production pressure PI2 and PI4.
The capacity of the pumps is selected in such a way that sufficient amounts and pressure reserves are
available. The needle valves NV2, NV3 and NV4 are used to set the pressures of the two RO stages.
Only personnel authorized by the manufacturer are permitted to make such adjustments.
IMPORTANT Maintain the production pressure! Production pressure that is increased too much may lead
to inadequate membrane flooding and thus to membrane damage.

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
6.2.8 Loop pressure

The following factors determine the pressure ratios in a loop:
• The maximum consumption (number of dialysis stations and other consumers)
• The minimum flow speed required (to avoid contamination)
• The minimum supply pressure at the last tapping point
• The pipe geometry (pipe cross-section etc.)
The overflow valve UV1 at the end of the loop must be set according to customer requirements. Without
permeate discharge and maximum performance, the setting pressure via UV1 should be 2.0–3.5 bar.
The flow speed in the primary loop should reach 0.5 m/s (with full discharge).
6.2.9 Membrane pressure vessel in the loop

The required constant pressure and an adequate supply of permeate is ensured by installing a membrane
pressure vessel. In turn, the size of the vessel and the necessary membrane air pressure depend on the
factors listed under → part 1, chapter 6.2.7 “System production pressure”.
LMW recommends a daily check of the Hydrowatch on the installed membrane pressure vessel (DG).
If the red indicator is visible in the viewing glass, please contact your Lauer Membran Wassertechnik
GmbH service technician immediately.
IMPORTANT The Hydrowatch must be checked before and after each chemical disinfection. If the red
indicator is visible, the loop must not be disinfected.
6.2.10 Prevention of excess pressure in the loop

An increase in pressure after reverse osmosis may well be possible if a butterfly valve is blocking the loop.
The pressure switch PSAH1 prevents the pressure increasing above the set value. After the system is
switched off, the corresponding message appears on the display → part 1, chapter 14. A faulty expansion
membrane on the surge tank also leads to an increase in pressure when the system is switched on, and
thus to the system being switched off via pressure switch PSAH1 (factory setting: switch-off pressure =
6 bar / switch-on pressure = 4 bar).
6.2.11 Temperature-dependent discharge

6.2.11.1 Discharge through menu temperature discharge dialysis or standby mode (analogue valve)
When an adjustable start temperature has been reached in the permeate (factory setting: start 35°C / stop
33°C), the system discharges the concentrate via Y9 depending on LSHL2 until the temperature drops to
below the stop value.
6.2.11.2 Discharge via alarm evaluation (digital signal)

When the limit temperature set on the temperature limit value controller has been reached, the system
discharges the concentrate via Y9 depending on LSHL2 until the temperature drops below the limit value.
The message “Alarm 21, temperature too high” appears on the display.
6.2.11.3 System stop via error evaluation (digital signal)

When the set limit temperature is exceeded for more than 3 minutes (alarm 21), the system switches off
(consumer protection).

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
6.2.12 Standby mode

Standby mode is used to prevent the development of biofilms / contamination by interrupting standstill
times in periods in which no permeate is required.

The system is switched on automatically at the set times to flush out the loop and the modules.
For this, the operating mode selection switch is turned to position 2.
IMPORTANT Dialysis is not possible during “standby mode”. Switching to dialysis mode is possible at
any time.
6.2.13 Shutdown rinsing

A shutdown rinsing mode is carried out when changing over from dialysis to standby mode.
First, impulse back washing is carried out. With the system running, water intake via Y10 is shut down until
the liquid level has dropped to level LSHL1. During this time, concentrate is discharged via Y9 (“EMPTY-
ING TANK”). After the supply tank VL has emptied, permeate out of the loop runs back into the VL via UV1
and the relaxed surge tank DG.
After the time set in menu item 4 has expired, the VL is filled with soft water via Y10 up to the level switch
LSHL2. See → part 1, chapter 14.4 “Parameters for standby mode, menu item 4”, input permeate feeding
time.
6.2.14 Leak messages

To prevent major leaks during “standby mode”, the system inc. the loop is checked for water loss.
If water is removed between flowmeters FISCAL1 (loop feed) and FISCAL2 (loop return) after the surge
tank DG has been filled (adjustable delay time), the control unit shuts the RO down with the error message
Error 17 “Leakage alarm”.
If the filling level in the supply tank drops to below LSHAL1 during standby mode, this means that water is
being lost in the loop or in the system, and the system shuts down with error message “Error 17, leakage
alarm”.
6.2.15 Impulse shear force rinsing (ISS) (optional)

The impulse shear force rinsing operation (ISS) flushes out the primary and secondary loops at maximum
flow speed and impulse-type flow.
The loop pressure set at overflow valve UV1 in dialysis mode reduces permeate production and, as
a result, the theoretical possible maximum flow speed in the loop. By installing bypass valve Y30 parallel
to the overflow valve, it is possible to produce the maximum amount of permeate as a result of the low
counter-pressure with solenoid valve Y30 open. The resulting high flow speed acts as shear force on the
pipeline wall.
In addition, the flow speeds are varied by the cyclic closing and opening of the valve Y30, which prevents
biofilm growth. Furthermore, faster ventilation of the loop is made possible as well as filling or flushing out
with disinfectant at each tapping point in the loop.
This mode of operation runs within disinfection, cleaning and during standby rinsing.
As a result, there is no noise nuisance caused by media flow.

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
6.2.16 Hot-water cleaning EcoRO Dia I HT and EcoRO Dia II HT

The hot water sanitizabel ROs are installed with hot water installation HotRinse SMART 10-50. During
standby mode they can be heated up to 85°C / 185°F in order to optimize the microbiolocical quality of the
permeate as an alternative or supplement to chemical disinfection.
NOTICE LMW recommends a minimum of 20 minutes hot cleaning (Permeate Hot Disinfection/PHD)
at 80°C.
Lower temperatures require longer heating phases to kill off most vegetative bacteria,
yeasts, fungi and viruses (reference: ISO 15883-1:2006 “Cleaning disinfection devices […]”.
There is no detrimental effect on the quality of the permeate during hot-water sanitation. There is no need
to check for freedom of disinfectant.
Hot RO I / Hot RO I+II

Activating the operation mode Hot RO I (at EcoRO Dia I HT) or Hot RO I+II (at EcoRO Dia II HT), hot water
is guided to the 1st (and 2nd) membrane stages. The temperature monitoring is carried out at TISHAH1
and TISAH2. Dialysis mode is only possible after the cooling phase has been completed.
IMPORTANT Dialysis mode is not possible during hot cleaning of the RO.

WARNING High voltage
• Commissioning, operation and maintenance is only to be carried out by authorized, trained and
LMW-instructed skilled workers. Electrical work is to be carried out only after completely disconnecting
the system from the power supply and only by authorized, trained and instructed electricians.
• Read and carefully observe these operating instructions, especially the safety instructions → part 1,
chapter 1 ff. before starting up, operating and servicing the system.
• When putting into operation, check to make sure all water connections have been made properly
→ part 2, chapter 3 and that all connections are leakproof.
8.1 Machine start-up

Open the water feed (upstream of the system) and switch the system to ON at the main switch.
1. Switch operating mode selection switch to 1 (dialysis mode).
2. The control unit switches the pumps on and the system starts to produce permeate.
8.2 Interruption in production

The system can be left filled with water for a short time e.g. overnight, if it is not to be operated in the
standby mode.
NOTICE However, there is an increased risk of contamination in the system and loop in this case.
IMPORTANT After the RO has been at a standstill for > 72 hours, carrying out disinfection is recom-
mended.
The system should be switched on some time before the first dialysis to rinse out the system and loop.
8.3 Machine start-up after shutdown due to a fault

If the system is at a standstill due to a fault, the cause will be shown on the display. The cause of the fault
must be eliminated if possible → part 1, chapter 15.
The control system may need to be reset, depending on the problem. This is done by switching the main
switch off and on again or by pressing the reset key on the display.

• If biofouling of the membrane is not to be expected and if the membrane is to be protected for storage,
a solution with 0.5 wt./vol.% sodium metabisulphite can be used.
9.5% wt./vol.% glycerin must be added to guarantee frost protection down to -5°C / 23°F.
• It is helpful to produce a basic solution with sodium metabisulphite in a 20-fold concentration and to fill
the supply tank with this basic solution.

• 200–350 mg/l magnesium chloride (in the form of MgCl2) must be added to maintain membrane
stability if this solution is to be stored for longer than one month.
• Let the preservative solution circulate through the membrane. Recirculate the solution through the
mixing tank for one hour. The temperature must not exceed 35°C / 95°F.
• It is helpful here, too, to produce a basic solution with MgCl2 in a 20-fold concentration and to fill the
supply tank with this basic solution.
Emptying the supply tank
• Empty the mixing tank down the waste drain when the protective treatment has been completed.
NOTICE If the system is exposed to a temperature of 0°C / 32°F (during transport etc.), it must be
emptied completely (especially the membrane), as otherwise excess pressure due to water
anomaly could cause the pipelines and membrane to be destroyed.
• Only leave the preservative solution in the membrane after completing the steps above if the
membrane will not be subject to frost.
Flushing
• To flush out the preservative solution (element 8040), a maximum permeate production and
a concentrate flow of at least 60 l/min (35–45 min) is required.
• Flushing can be terminated when the conductivity in the permeate (display) is 2–10 µS/cm /
1–5 ppm NaCl (depending on yield and raw water constitution).
EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
NOTICE During preservation, the system must be clearly marked with the following information:
• Type of preservative
• Preservation date
• Contact to responsible doctor and operating personnel.
NOTICE After preservation, disinfection must be carried out according to → part 1, chapter 12 before
normal start-up.
NOTICE Preservation is recorded in a separate log provided for this purpose, as well as in the
medical device log (→ part 2, chapter 8).
NOTICE Sodium metabisulfite is sensible to oxygen! Without any air-contact the shelf life is
6 months. It is recommended to check the concentration of preservation agent monthly
and to renew its concentration if needed.

Temperature discharge
During temperature discharge, the concentrate is routed via Y9 into the drain system in order to lower the
water temperature in the system. The operator can use menu item 2 to activate or deactivate this mode
of operation (see → part 1, chapter 14.2). If temperature discharging is not activated and the fixed limit
temperature of 35°C has been reached, the system rinses for 3 minutes to drain. During this time the
system has to coole down, otherwise it stopps with a fault message.

Standby mode temperature discharge

During temperature discharge in standby mode, the concentrate is routed via Y9 into the drain system in
order to transmit the water temperature in the system. The operator can use menu item 4 to activate or
deactivate this mode of operation (see → part 1, chapter 14). If temperature discharging is not activated
and the fixed limit temperature of 35°C / 95°F has been reached, the system switches to the standby
break.
At regular time intervals, the system checks the current water temperature in the standby intermediate
rinsing mode of operation. If the temperature drops below the limit value, the system continues standby
intermediate rinsing. The system switches back to the standby break if the value is above the limit.
During temperature discharge a potential water loss can not be noticed at the RO.

12. Disinfection / Cleaning
Disinfection of the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) is carried out
• After commissioning and flushing of the preservative
• As a preventative measure
• When the microbiological action, warning or alarm limits are attained or exceeded
• After opening the system for maintenance or repair work or other constructional intervention
With EcoRO Dia HT systems disinfection can be carried out either thermical or chemical. Both disinfection
procedures are equal regarding their effectiveness. However, thermal disinfection does not require a test
for remaining residual disinfectant before system is brought back into operation.
12.1 General points
WARNING The system may only be disinfected or cleaned during the dialysis-free period.
Acute risk of poisoning!
• The permeate must be disconnected from the dialysis machines before the disinfection
process is started.
• It must not be possible to carry out dialysis!
At the point of connection to potable water a backflow prevention (e.g. PPBA) must be installed!
The system must be disconnected completely from the mains supply line before disinfecting or cleaning
pretreatment. It is absolutely essential to disconnect the RO during disinfection or cleaning.
WARNING The RO must be disinfected if the germ count is found to be higher than normal
(action limit: 50 CFU/ml).
IMPORTANT After the RO has been at a standstill for > 72 hours, carrying out disinfection
is recommended.
WARNING An LMW reverse osmosis system may only be disinfected or cleaned by LMW-authorized
and trained personnel.
IMPORTANT Before disinfection or cleaning:

• The Hydrowatch on the membrane surge tank (DG) must be checked before each
disinfection or cleaning process. If the red indicator is visible, the loop must not be
disinfected.
• To increase the effectiveness of the disinfection process, it must be ensured that the
membrane modules are free of organic and chemical contamination. The membrane
modules must be cleaned beforehand with a commercial membrane cleaner to
remove hardness salts or iron deposits on the membrane.
• Chemical disinfectants must comply with FDA requirements (Chemical disinfectants
and antiseptics: test procedure for bactericide basic action).
IMPORTANT Hydraulic connection to municipal water supply must comply with local regulations!
Rev. 4.00 December 2014 Disinfection / Cleaning Part 1 • Page 12-1

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
IMPORTANT LMW strongly recommends membrane cleaning prior to disinfection.

Sealing product on membrane surfaces can irreversibly damage the membrane.
The following disinfectant (combination treatment) has been approved for the disinfection of
Aquaboss® reverse osmosis systems:
• Minncare Cold Sterilant (Minntech BV)
• Puristeril 340 (Fresenius Medical Care)
NOTICE Disinfection (or cleaning) is recorded in the respective log provided and in the medical
device log (→ part 2, chapter 8).
WARNING Dialysis is not permitted during disinfection or cleaning.
WARNING The warning instructions of the disinfectant or cleaning agent manufacturers must be
observed when these products are being used, and personal protective equipment must
be worn.
WARNING Acute risk of poisoning if disinfectants or cleaning agents are taken or administered.
12.2 Disinfection
Disinfection working steps
1. Rinse the RO system by starting standby mode.
2. Fill the supply tank with permeate.
3. Determine the system/loop volume to be disinfected (→ part 1, chapter 12, table 12-1 “Disinfectant
application concentration”).
4. Program sequence: See → “Program steps”.
5. The commercial preparation is to be provided as an approx. 2% solution for reliable water bacteria dis-
infection.
In this respect, a basic solution is used in the supply tank, where the concentration of the disinfectant
must not exceed 8% (otherwise the membrane would be damaged!). Consult LMW in the case of
proven contamination by fungi/yeast or spores.
IMPORTANT Make sure the contents are well mixed in the supply tank, because layers can form on the
bottom of the tank due to the different specific densities of the disinfectant and permeate.
6. The contents of the supply tank must be circulated until the concentration is the same in the loop
supply and return flow. (Aid: conductivity)
IMPORTANT Contamination in the water treatment system can lead to an unspecified disinfectant
reaction to occur which can greatly reduce the concentration of the effective disinfectant.
In certain cases, the amount of disinfectant needed can differ greatly from the calculated
requirement.
Part 1 • Page 12-2 Disinfection / Cleaning Rev. 4.00 December 2014

EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
7. Following disinfection (DI), the reverse osmosis system and loop are flushed with permeate.
The following tests are available for specifically testing for disinfectant residue:
– H2O2 (peroxide test – Merck item no. 10011) or
– Peroxyacetic acid (peroxyacetic acid test – Merck item no. 110084)
All permeate tapping points must be checked separately to make sure there is no disinfectant left in
the system. This check must be repeated to ensure there is no disinfectant left in the system after the
disinfected and rinsed RO has stood still for 30 minutes.
IMPORTANT The colouring of the test strips merely indicates that the disinfectant concentration is above
the limit to be determined by the test strip. It is not possible to determine the concentration
of a substance this way. The reaction time (with final concentration of disinfectant) is at least
15 minutes. The reaction time of the disinfectant in its diluted form on membranes must not
exceed 30 minutes and must be immediately followed by rinsing.
IMPORTANT Only use LMW-approved disinfectants.

Minncare Cold Sterilant 1% 3.5
Minncare Cold Sterilant 3% 2.5
Minncare Cold Sterilant is delivered as a concentrate that has to be diluted with water to a 1% or
3% solution.
To calculate the consumption of Minncare Cold Sterilant you have to add the volumes EcoRo Dia II HT
to the volume of the loop (including the surge tank).
Example:
Volume of EcoRo Dia I/II (with 2 membranes): 94l
+ Volume of loop (100m with diameter = 20mm): 31l
+ Volume of surge tank 25l
Total 150l
Divided by 100 = 1.5l
You have to fill 1.5l Minncare Cold Sterilant in order to get a 1% solution in the overall system.
You have to fill 1.5l x 3 = 4.5l Minncare Cold Sterilant in order to get a 3% solution in the
overall system.
Volume of EcoRo Dia II HT mainly depends on the number of membranes.

WARNING After disinfection, the dialysis personnel must check that there is no disinfectant in the
system at each dialysis station before commencing dialysis.
WARNING At the point of connection to potable water a backflow prevention (e.g. PPBA) must be
installed!
The system must be disconnected completely from the mains supply line before disinfection
of the softener. It is absolutely essential to disconnect the RO during disinfection.
Program steps
NOTICE If total viable microbial counts in Aquaboss® EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) are monitored on
a monthly base disinfection must be carried out whenever the action limit for total viable
microbial counts is exceeded but latest after 3 months (after citric acid cleaning). If the RO
system is monitored less frequently, preventive disinfection on a monthly base is recom-
mended. However, when system has not been in use for more than 72 h (system off) we
recommend disinfection. Extra disinfection is always necessary when hydraulic parts have
been opened and/or changed.
The EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) has a menu-guided disinfection program. The operator is guided step by step
through the program. Function and safety-related actions to be carried out by the operator are only
triggered after manual confirmation.
The disinfection times are set as described under → part 1, chapter 14.5 “Disinfection data, menu item 5”.

12.3 Cleaning
IMPORTANT Only use LMW approved cleaners!
12.3.1 Technical memos for CLEANING Aquaboss® reverse osmosis systems

Citric acid cleaning of 8" modules to remove metal hydroxides and calcium carbonate.
• Prior to the cleaning process: Rinse the system with permeate. 120 litres of permeate are required
for the complete rinsing of an 8" module.
• Put a 2% citric acid solution in the supply tank. The quantities of citric acid required can be found
in the following table. To prevent the pH value on the membrane from dropping below pH 2.0, we
recommend adding sodium hydroxide to the solution in the supply tank. (The addition of sodium
hydroxide does not influence the effectiveness of the citric acid since the calcium of the CaCO3 forces
the sodium out of the Ca citrate so that it enters the solution.) The recommended pH value for citric
acid cleaning is pH 4.0–4.2.
Table 12-2: Amounts of descaling agents required
Number of 8" modules Citric acid in kg Added NaOH ml (29%)

(8040) min. technical grade
1 0.8 400
Increasing the citric acid concentration by more than 2% does not increase the effectiveness of the rinsing
process.
• Cleaning is carried out with the permeate valve closed and internal recirculation completely open.
• System pressure must not exceed 6 bar during rinsing with citric acid.
• Iron which has been deposited on the membrane is also released during citric acid rinsing. When the
citric acid solution becomes saturated with iron, it turns a reddish brown colour in the supply tank and
has to be replaced.
• After the acid rinsing has been completed, the system must be rinsed with water. For this, at least
150 litres of water per 8" element (or at least 1 hour of rinsing time) are required. Rinsing may only
take place at low pressure (6 bar / 87 psi).

13. Hot disinfection
Hot-water disinfection is a chemical-free supplement to tried-and-trusted methods of disinfection which
optimises the microbiological quality of the permeate. Hot cleaning is carried out in standby operation.
NOTICE Hot disinfection is not possible in the “off” operating state.
NOTICE Effectiveness of the system in killing bacteria can only be achieved at temperatures
> 80°C and a contact time of min. 20 minutes.
13.1 Hot disinfection of the loop

An additional external hot disinfection system (e.g. Aquaboss® HotRinse SMART) makes it possible to
sanitise the loop with hot water.
Since permeate from reverse osmosis can be supplied in this operating state and no dialysis operation is
permitted, the activated hot cleaning is indicated in the display of the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT).
IMPORTANT Only use heat resistant materials for the fluid pathway to be disinfected with hot water.
13.2 Hot disinfection of the loop and reverse osmosis

Regular hot disinfection can be triggered automatically through the weekly program ( see Menu 12,
Automatic operation) or started manually ( see Menu 12, Manual operation).
The basic requirement for implementation is always standby operation of the reverse osmosis system and
release through the external hot disinfection system.

15.1 Fault messages
WARNING In the event of a alarm or error, the medical director should immediately be notified. It is then
the medical director‘s responsibilty to direct whether or not to discontinue the treatment
immediately, or if it is acceptable to finish the current treatment. After the treatment has
been discontinued or completed, the trouble-shooting in → part 1, page 16-1 of these
operating instructions should be read and followed thorougly to determine the problem.
The problem must be corrected before any future treatments can begin.
When a fault is determined in the system, the following appears in the

display.
Fault message
Menu (reset)
15.1.1 Types of faults

A distinction is made between the fault types ALARM and ERROR.
15.1.1.1 ALARM
A deviation from normal operation has been established. The effects could impair system operation.
The control system is not switched off automatically.
Signaling an alarm:
• The display shows the fault message as a fault code.
• The red signal lamp is active, the red LED “Error” and the green LED “Run” flash alternately.
• The alarm relay passes a message to the higher-order system, which can be a central management
system or the RO remote control available as an optional accessory.
The alarm is reset automatically when the cause has been eliminated.
15.1.1.2 ERROR
A fault has been established. The effects could lead to system damage. The system is switched off
automatically.
Signaling an error:
• The display shows the fault message as a fault code.
• The red signal lamp is active, the red LED “Error” flashes.
• The alarm relay passes a message to the higher-order system
Depending on which error has occurred, it may be possible to continue running the system in an emer-
gency operating mode. The system can thus continue to produce permeate, even if the error cannot be
eliminated immedately. Instructions for the emergency operating mode are given in the help text for the
respective error messages.
NOTICE An existing alarm or error message is indicated by flashing. If several faults exist, the follow-
ing message flashes after the previous one has been acknowledged. When all messages
have been acknowledged, the first message is displayed. The other messages (if several
exist) can be queried using the arrow keys and .
NOTICE LMW recommends that the alarm output (fault message) and warning information output
(disinfection operation) be connected to a central alarm. This can be the LMW remote con-
trol system, for example.

15.2 Causes of faults and their correction

15.2.1 Fault messages

Fault history
The occurance and the acknowledgement of alarms or errors is described in the section error history
(menu item 15).
If the main switch is switched off during an alarm/error, only the occurrence of the alarm/error can be
stored and not the error acknowledgement.
50 alarms or errors can be stored. The 51st error overwrites the first error.
Acknowledgement of errors
All alarms/errors are acknowledged by switching the selection switch to position 0.
Certain alarms/errors specified in → chapter 15.1 “Fault messages” can be acknowledged using one of the
reset keys shown on the display or with the help of the remote control “Reset”.
Self acknowledged fault messages start on their own during the last operating phase as soon as the failure
is no longer present.

Leak monitoring
• Leak monitoring is only active in standby mode.
• Leak monitoring via level switch LSHAL1 and through the flow meters FISCAL1 and FISCAL2.
• In order to avoid fluctuations during start of intermediate rinsing, the monitoring can be delayed by the
time defined in the menu 4.7 “Delay in leak monitoring”.
• The leak monitoring is only performed by the level switch LSHAL1 during the heat cleaning operating
phase HWD1.

16. Emergency operation modes
In the event of system malfunctions, such as partial failures e.g. of a pump of the RO stages or control
system, there are different emergency operation possibilities available. In replacement operation mode
“Emergency mode I/II” water transport continues using one RO stage.
Heed the warning notes.
If a replacement operation mode has to be switched on, LMW Service must be contacted.
WARNING Emergency mode is only permitted if the physician responsible agrees!
16.1 Production of permeate in emergency mode

If a pump or a complete RO stage fails, the system can be switched to the other RO stage to permit further
operation.
The “fault” lamp lights up, the display provides information about the relevant working steps.

16.2 Emergency mode with soft water

Soft water can be fed into the loop if all the pumps and the control system fail.
WARNING The emergency operation of a dialysis machine with soft water is only permitted in agree-
ment with and written approval by the physician carrying out the treatment!
NOTICE LMW advises carrying out a comprehensive analysis of the soft water quality with regard to
chemical and microbiological limit values if soft water is used for emergency operation.
WARNING Disinfection of the dialysis machine in soft water emergency operation is only permitted
after complete separation (pipeline separation) between the dialysis machine and the soft
water supply.
1. Switch the system off at the main switch

2. Place the sterile filter insert in the pre-filter (note intake water pressure)
3. Open valves K1/K3 (K1 lever setting: horizontal = closed, vertical = opened) by pulling the flap lever
to the outside and moving 90° upwards.
4. Switch on the hard water monitor by hand (if available)
During soft water emergency operation, LMW recommends closing the flap on the loop return to avoid
premature depletion of the softener.
WARNING During soft water operation, no active control of conductivity takes place through the RO.
For this reason, water hardness must be checked regularly according to legal regulations.
IMPORTANT If the water intake pressure is greater than the loop pressure set at UV1, the water passes
through to the supply tank through this overflow valve:
• Danger of supply tank overflowing, even without dialysis machines and consumers
connected!
• The softener will become depleted prematurely.
In this case, LMW recommends installing a shutoff valve at the end of the loop and clos-
ing this during soft water emergency operation. Consumption them corresponds to water
requirements for dialysis.

If there is a Hot RO II function available, butterfly valve K3 is replaced by solenoid valve Y5.1. The valve
is opened during
• emergency mode through RO I, according to regulation (→ part 1, chapter 16.1.1 “Emergency mode
via RO I”)
• Manual soft water operation by turning the small grey lever on the valve directly (→ part 1,
chapter 16.1 “Production of permeate in emergency mode”).

In emergency mode via RO I, the valve Y5.1 is opened through the control system (→ part 1, chapter 16.1
“Production of permeate in emergency mode”).
During emergency mode with soft water, the fittings K1 and Y5.1 are opened manually (by manual turning)

4. Commissioning
WARNING The system may only be commissioned by trained and skilled personnel or by a trained
representative authorized by LMW.
Incorrect commissioning of the system can lead to damage to the system and personal
injury.
The customer/operating personnel are instructed fully on the use of the system when it
is commissioned.
4.1 Language selection

First of all, the display language set must be checked and changed if necessary. The menu guide and
display messages can be provided in English, German, and Spanish.
• To do this, switch the system on using the main switch and select the language and the unit in
sub-menu 10 software language.
4.2 Flushing out the preservative

As a rule, the system is supplied with preserved membranes. This is why the preservative must be flushed
out before the system is connected to the loop. Care must be taken that the open permeate line is long
enough to reach the waste water connection or an appropriate floor drain.
• The water supply is opened and the system switched on at the main switch. Then the operating mode
selection switch is used to switch the system to dialysis or night-time operating mode.
• Select the dialysis operating mode to flush out the preservative. The supply tank starts to fill up.
Once the level is above the lower level switch LSHAL1, the control unit switches the pumps on one by
one and the system starts (temporary) permeate production (in this case to flush out the system).
IMPORTANT Bleed all the pumps and the modules in the pressure pipes.
If no pressure (< 5 bar) should build up after some time (30 seconds), the pump may not be rotating in the
correct direction (check direction of arrow on the pump). In this case, the system must be switched off at
the main switch, disconnected from the power supply before two external conductors of the power supply
are exchanged.
After being switched on again, the pump will build up the required operating pressure. If the system is
running in dialysis mode (→ part 1, chapter 8.1 “Machine start-up”), the conductivity display (conductivity
instrument) indicates whether the preservative has been flushed out or not. When conductivity has
attained its normal value (2–10 µS/cm), the system is switched off using the selection switch and
connected to the loop.
After the system has been flushed out, the pipe must be rinsed for some time (aerated).
Then disinfection must be carried out (→ part 1, chapter 12).
NOTICE After preservation, disinfection must be carried out before start-up (→ part 1, chapter 12).
WARNING After disinfection it must be ensured that there is no disinfectant left in the device and loop.

7.3 Raw water requirements

Aquaboss® reverse osmosis system have been designed in such a way that they can usually be operated
with feed water quality of “drinking water” quality (according to EPA “National Primary Drinking Water
Regulation” (2009)) (→ part 1, chapter 2.1).
The service lifetime of the reverse osmosis membranes used and the permeate quality of the product flow
of the reverse osmosis system depend directly on the concentration of the individual water contents and
can be optimized through suitable pretreatment methods.
The critical parameters are highlighted in → part 1, chapter 2.1, in the column “Feed water for reverse
osmosis” in these operating instructions (bold print).
NOTICE Additional information on life expectancy of carbon filters, softener resin, pre-filtration,
reverse osmosis membranes that are relative to the user's typical feed water is available
upon request.
WARNING Product water is proportionally related to feed water quality. Feed water must be monitored,
since changes in product water may exceed acceptable limits if feed water deteriorates
significantly, the operator is responsible for monitoring.
Raw water requirements

Water intake (raw water) At least double the pure water capacity (when using a pretreatment
system, the minimum water consumption for this system must be added)
Dynamic pressure, minimum (removal) 1.5 bar / 21.75 psi
Static pressure, maximum 6.0 bar / 87 psi
pH range 9.5 ≥ pH ≥ 5.0
Free chlorine (permanent load) max. 0.0 ppm
Iron < 0.1 ppm
Fine filter 5 µm
Silt Density Index (SDI) ≤ 5 (for (Eco)RO version), ≤ 3 for RO version
Raw water setting value (TDS as NaCl) 500 ppm
Temperature range 6–30°C / 42.8…86°F
NOTICE Incoming tap water contaminants, temperature, pH, pressure and flowrates have a direct
impact on the quality and quantity of the water treatment system output.
You must be aware of changing tap water conditions. This can be easily accomplished
with good, two-way communications with your municipal drinking water supplier and with
routine testing of the tap water provided to you.
WARNING The raw water quality must be in accordance to National Primary Drinking Water or
Standards of the United States Enviromental Protection Agency (EPA) (US). Raw water
must not contain more than 0.1 ppm Iron or 0.1 ppm Manganese.

Portable and mobile RF communications
equipment should not be used no closer
to any part of the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT),
including cables, than the recommended
separation distance caculated from the
equation applicable to the frequency of
the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance

d = 0.70 √P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz
where P is the maximum output power
rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer
and d is the recommended separation
distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic
site survey,a should be less than the com-
pliance level in each frequency range.b
Interference may occur in the
vicinity of equipment marked
with the following symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed 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 fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) is used exceeds
the applicable RF compliance level above, the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) should be observed to verify normal operation.
If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the
EcoRO Dia I/II (HT).
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strength should be less than 10 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment

and the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)

The EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a miminum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the
EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communication equip-
ment.

8.2 Medical device log and maintenance / technical safety check log
The functional safety of the reverse osmosis system can only be maintained if the medical device log is
maintained properly and made accessible to technicians during the technical safety check / maintenance
work.
Completely and correctly kept log books are absolutely essential to determine the type of maintenance and
checks to be carried out periodically.
The type of activity, the date carried out and the person doing the work must be entered in the respective
log book every time a check is made.
Sample pages for the medical device log and the maintenance and technical service check log are pro-
vided in these operating instructions. You can copy these pages as often as required.
Please always keep the completed pages near the system.

10. Draft letter for municipal water suppliers
To the
[municipal water supplier]
........
........
[City], [Date]
Dear Sir or Madam,

Artificial kidneys make high demands on the quality of water used. For your information, I have enclosed
a copy showing the present quality standard for water used to dilute concentrated haemodialysis solution.
If this quality standard is not met, it can lead to situations which threaten the lives of patients.
Especially chemicals such as aluminium, fluorides, free chlorine and chloramines, which are generally
used for municipal water treatment, can have a detrimental effect on the health of haemodialysis patients.
In our dialysis centre, we have installed a water treatment system which, under normal conditions, enables
us to achieve the standard of water quality required for diluting concentrated haemodialysis solutions. This
water treatment system has been designed and configured to process the average composition of water
that you supply.
The system consists of a softening plant and a reverse osmosis system. These components are capable of
removing all the water components harmful to patients found in drinking water.
We would like to ask you to inform us immediately if there are any changes in the composition of the water,
particularly about the use of any disinfectants such as chlorine, or dosing of any other chemicals, so that
we can take the necessary steps to protect our patients.
We would like to thank you in advance for your considerate cooperation.
Yours sincerely
