Covidien Kangaroo 924 Enteral Feeding Pump features:
The Covidien Kangaroo™ 924 Enteral Feeding Pump with Pole Clamp is a rotary peristaltic pump designed to regulate the flow rate of enteral feedings. Among the features provided by this pump are:
• Portable operation-built in rechargeable battery
• Wide flow rate range 1-300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments
• Small and lightweight for easy transport
• Language Selection (13 languages available)
• Touch panel and knob operation
• Shut off and activation of audible and visible alarms when:
− Feeding container is empty − Feeding tube becomes occluded
− Drip sensors blocked
− Battery low (alarms 15 minutes before pump shut off)
− Unit is left on “Hold” longer than 5 minutes
− Feeding set is improperly loaded − Self-diagnosed problem which requires technical servicing
− Pump motor malfunction
− Ambient light error
• Automatic systems check after the pump has been turned ON
• Large LED display
• Low occlusion pressure. The pump will not overcome back pressure greater than approximately 15 psi (103.4 kPa)
• Integral pole clamp
• Use of Optix feeding sets to prevent free flow from inadvertent misload of the feeding set onto the pump
• Pump running indicator lights
• DC motor with intermittent operation
• Adjustable alarm volume
• Memory of flow rate setting is retained for 16 or 24 hrs. after the pump shut off, depending on AC connection status.

Operating Range Rate:
1-300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments Dose: 1-2000 mL in 1 mL increments Volume Delivered: 1-9999 mL (rollover is accounted for)
Accuracy
10% or 0.5 mL/hr, whichever is larger, with the top of the fluid column at 71.12 cm (28”) ± 0.76 cm (0.3”) above the top of the pump, at a room temperature of 22 °C ± 2 °C (72 °F ± 3 °F), using a new 924 feeding set for no longer than the recommended 24 hours of maximum usage. Confidence limits for accuracy are based upon those included in the ANSI/AAMI ID26-1992 American National Standard for Infusion Devices. Reported accuracy is based upon the time-based accuracy calculation in this standard, as applicable for enteral feeding
Occlusion Pressure
15 psi (103.4 kPa) Nominal
