Dialysis Equipment
Product: T/TS Series

In the course of transperitoneal dialysis, metabolic waste products are removed from the blood through the peritoneum. The peritoneum is a membrane that covers inner organs in the abdominal cavity. By means of a catheter, inserted surgically, a sterile dialysis solution is introduced into the abdominal cavity and removed several times a day. The peritoneum serves as a dialysis membrane.

Most transperitoneal dialysis treatments are carried out by the patients themselves at home or at their place of work.

Two T50 (T/TS Series) displacement sensors are used for controlling and monitoring the dosing pump.

Procedure Tables and Chairs (Midmark)
Product: PL240

Midmark selected the PL240 Series of rotary position sensors for measuring the position of moving components in several of their universal procedure tables and chairs with a resolution of less than 0.1°. Midmark’s control system monitors multiple PL240s as patients are ideally positioned for a healthcare professional to perform a procedure with repeatability of 0.04%. This allowed Midmark to hold a tolerance of ±0.5° for each moving section of their tables and chairs.
