Haemonetics Cell Saver 5
Haemonetics · Model Cell Saver 5
Rapidly processes a large volume of salvaged blood while keeping operation simple. Simple control panel. Centrifuge holds a disposable bowl. Bowl optics monitor the spinning bowl to determine the appropriate moment to initiate certain actions such as cell washing. Waste bag weigher alters the operator when the waste bag is full. Tubing manifold is installed into a keyed slot that ensures the tubing lines are installed on the appropriate valves.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Roller / centrifugal pump fault
HighSymptoms: A pump will not run at set flow, speed unstable, occlusion out of adjustment, flow-probe error.
Root cause: Worn roller-pump raceway / rollers, a centrifugal drive-motor / coupling fault, or a flow-probe fault.
Console / control-module fault
HighSymptoms: A pump module unresponsive, display errors, module not recognised by the console.
Root cause: Module electronics or the console-to-module link.
Battery / UPS fault
HighSymptoms: Short back-up run time, will not transfer cleanly on a power interruption.
Root cause: Aged battery / UPS pack.
Pressure / level / bubble-monitoring fault
MediumSymptoms: Pressure, reservoir-level or bubble-detector alarms implausible or not triggering.
Root cause: Transducer, level-sensor, or bubble-detector fault.
Heater-cooler / temperature fault
MediumSymptoms: Blood / cardioplegia temperature not tracking, heater-cooler alarm, flow fault.
Root cause: Heater-cooler pump / refrigeration or a temperature-probe fault.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: A pump will not run correctly
- Move the function to a spare pump module / mast position to isolate module vs console.
- Check the roller occlusion setting and inspect the raceway / rollers (roller pumps).
- Check the centrifugal drive coupling and flow probe.
- Verify flow against an independent flow probe.
- Replace the roller kit or drive components as isolated; a CPB console must pass a full functional check before clinical use.
Symptom: Monitoring alarm implausible or not triggering
- Verify each pressure channel against a reference.
- Test the level and bubble detectors per the service procedure.
- Reseat the sensor connectors.
- Calibrate the pressure channels.
- Replace a sensor that fails its functional test - these are safety systems.

Safety & Recalls
Synced live from the FDA openFDA API.
- RECALL
Potential to develop leaks at the inner core of Cell Saver 5/5+ and Cell Saver Elite/Elite +125ml and 225ml bowl sets. Which could result in fluid being trapped inside the bowl core, causing a long empty device error message with the possibility of incomplete washing.
- RECALL
Haemonetics has received isolated reports that in some cases the 70ml centrifuge bowl may leak during cell salvage processing.
- RECALL
Device emits radiofrequency which exceed the IEC 60601-1-2 International Standard
- RECALL
Disposable Set for Autologous Blood recovery may leak saline at the Y-connector
