Schippers-Medizintechnik PMS-Future-3
Schippers-Medizintechnik · Model PMS-Future-3
A simple handling instrument with the modern high tech for hospitals/clinics and science. Schippers-Medizintechnik's physiological PMS-future-3 measuring system is a modular system baded on up-to-date technology. Several URODYNAMICS MEASURING UNITS for daily routine measurements in hospitals and practices are available on the international market. Most of these systems are compact-systems. The physiological PMS-future-3 measuring system is based on modular technic - that's why it offers essential advantages.
Key tips
- ·When no category-specific guidance fits, default to the manufacturer's own service manual and the general troubleshooting method in the Engineer's Guide.
- ·Run an incoming and annual electrical safety test regardless of how niche the device is.
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.
Pressure channel will not zero / reads wrong
HighSymptoms: Vesical, abdominal or detrusor pressure offset, will not zero, implausible traces.
Root cause: Transducer not open to atmosphere / not at the correct reference during zero, a damaged transducer / dome, or an amplifier fault.
Infusion pump / fill-rate fault
MediumSymptoms: Filling volume inaccurate, pump will not run at the set rate, occlusion alarm.
Root cause: Peristaltic pump rollers / tubing, or a pump-drive fault.
Uroflow / flowmeter fault
MediumSymptoms: Flow trace noisy, zero drift, flowmeter inaccurate.
Root cause: Flowmeter load cell / disc, or a calibration fault.
EMG / patient-cable fault
MediumSymptoms: Noisy or absent pelvic-floor EMG.
Root cause: Electrode contact / cable or the EMG amplifier.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Follow the manufacturer's PM schedule
- ·Perform incoming and annual electrical safety testing per facility biomedical program
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: Pressure will not zero / reads wrong
- Open the transducer to atmosphere at the correct reference level and re-zero.
- Flush the line and dome; clear any air.
- Swap in a known-good transducer / dome.
- Verify against a water column (known cmH2O).
- Replace the transducer or refer the amplifier.
Symptom: Fill-rate / flow inaccurate
- Check the pump tubing segment and rollers.
- Calibrate the infusion pump against a measured volume.
- Calibrate the uroflow flowmeter with a known volume / rate.
- Replace worn pump tubing / rollers.
- Re-verify fill and flow accuracy.
