A handheld, analog instrument that measures conductivity of water and dialysate fluids associated with hemodialysis delivery systems. It is used for monitoring the conductivity of dialysate and is a Class II medical device. The D-2 features dual scales and can be used to test both acetate and bicarbonate dialysate. It is powered by a 9-volt battery. It’s FDA Product Code is FLB: Meter, Conductivity, Induction, Remote Type.
A battery-powered electronic device designed to measure two or more parameters (e.g., temperature, conductivity, pressure, pH, flow) to calibrate or test a medical device (e.g., haemodialysis equipment, anaesthesia machine, suction system, ophthalmic laser). It typically consists of a hand-held electronic box with appropriate connections and a digital display; dedicated measuring devices (e.g., probe, sensor, electrode, buffer solution) are typically included. It is not dedicated to a specific clinical discipline and is intended to be used by a professional in a professional setting (e.g., clinical engineering).
