EBME Forums Forums Maintenance Technical Assistance Alaris VP Plus infusion pump

I have an error code on a VP Plus pump:-
Supply Fault
POW1
Sensor Failure

Anyone able to help out?

I could ask Carefusion but I borrowed the pump a year ago for a research project that I said would be a few months so do not want to remind them I still have it in case they ask for it back.
And yes I have googled there are a lot of manuals out there but I cannot find the VP Plus.

Thanks
Robert

PS It was left for quite a while off the mains so the battery went very flat, if that is a clue. But it is charged now.

OK Robert, here's my guess:-

Could the "sensor" in question be the battery temperature sensor?

POW 1 relates to either a Battery fault or Charge fault, replace either the battery or the Control PCB

Ah well, new battery has arrived and I still have the same problem.
Does anyone have the service manual for a Carfusion VP Plus IV pump.
Many thanks
Robert

PS Yes I have looked in all the usual places

You need the log in for this (CareFusion give this out if you phone them). PM me if you need me to give you it.

Thanks but I have it now via an alternative route.
