Alaris® System Alarms

An Alarm is an audio and visual signal indicating that a potentially unsafe condition is present. Immediate action is required and the infusion stops until the condition is corrected. The audio may be silenced for approximately two minutes by pressing the SILENCE key.

The example pictured here is an Occlusion. When this particular alarm occurs you must clear the occlusion and restart the infusion.
