The pump was returned to d.O.R.C.For investigation, however the problem could not be reproduced.Pump performance has been checked and all measured parameters were within specification.Nevertheless, the suspected pump was replaced preventively.Functioning of the suspected pump was tested by performing a fat (factory acceptance test).This fat performed by the d.O.R.C.After sales department is an exact copy of the test used by the pump manufacturer to check new pumps.The after sales fat test includes a hardware test (tests on motors, pressure sensors, pneumatic valves, vacuum pumps and system) and a functional test (general test, tests on flow and vacuum mode).To be able to determine the root cause of the problem, additional information has been requested from the hospital three times.However, no further information has been received to date.Therefore the root cause for this issue cannot be determined.
