Warnings WARNING: Use only 100% pure CO2 and 100% pure N2 gas. Use of other gases could result in serious injury, depending on the gas connected DO NOT: Disassemble or modify any part of the G185, or substitute any component for any other. Doing so may result in damage to samples. This voids the warranty and/ or service contract WARNING: To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected to a mains supply with protective earth
WARNING: Not to be used in a patient environment
WARNING: Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation

•
Never use or handle this unit in ways other than specified in this manual. Your safety may be at risk and the unit may get damaged
•
Never try to move the unit without consulting Customer Service
•
Never use the unit if the alarm system of the device has issued a failure message and the cause of the failure has not been identified
•
Protect the power cord from being damaged or being restricted in any way. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket or at the rear of the instrument to disconnect the mains supply

To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the G185 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the G185 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the [System Name here]. a

Placement The G185 should be placed on a level, secure surface, away from heaters, coolers, air-conditioning outlets, mists, splash and direct sunlight. Allow 10cm of clearance on all sides to allow adequate ventilation. Allow the G185 to acclimatize for two hours before installation. To maintain a device setpoint between 35-40°C the preferred ambient temperature should be between 20-30°C. DO NOT use the incubator at ambient temperatures exceeding 30°C as this may compromise the incubation process. This unit is designed for use at altitudes under 2,000 meters.
CAUTION •
Installation of the unit should only be performed by an authorized CooperSurgical Service Technician
•
Never block any of the ventilation holes on the unit
•
Make sure that all devices emitting electromagnetic radiation are kept at a reasonable distance from the unit in order to avoid any potential interferences
•
Make sure the power circuits used are intended for medical equipment
•
Make sure there is sufficient access to the device for ease of disconnection if required

Significant Performance Characteristics The incubator has been developed and optimized for gametes and embryos cultured with an overlay of either paraffin or mineral oil. Each chamber is designed to contain dishes from one patient only.
Operation Principle The fertilized egg (zygote) is cultured for up to 6-7 days in a growth medium in the incubator with a controlled environment (temperature and CO2/O2). It is then implanted in the same or another woman’s uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy.
User Profile A trained health professional, who has the appropriate assisted reproduction technologies qualifications. Only qualified personnel trained in using the G185 should operate the incubator. CAUTION: If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by this manual, the safety of the user may be at risk and the equipment may be damaged. Always use the equipment as stated in this User Manual
Operating Environment To be used at ambient temperature in a medical environment, clinic or hospital laboratory under normal working conditions.
9
Intended Use Product Description The G185 is composed of 10 separate culture chambers (2) and one larger warming chamber (3). The 10 culture chambers are exposed to both heat and gas mixtures while the Dry Bath Chamber is exposed only to heat. The gas is constantly cleaned for particles, volatile organic compounds and bacteria by circulation through a HEPA and VOC filter. The CO2 concentration is monitored by using a CO2 sensor and the O2 level is monitored by an O2 sensor placed in the gas mixing chamber (built inside the incubator).
Dish Inserts The chambers should only be fitted with special Dish Inserts (1), that allow safe placement of standard culture dishes (Falcon, Nunc, Vitrolife). Ensure the culture dishes are placed securely in the correct milled grooves of the Dish Inserts.

G185 SensorTech
Section 6 - G185 SensorTech G185 supports external and independent monitoring of the most critical parameters regarding CO2 concentration, temperature and pH measurement.
CAUTION: Installations of external sensors must be performed by CooperSurgical or by persons authorized by CooperSurgical only
External pH Monitoring This G185 SensorTech has been designed to work with Octax pH online. These parts are available from MTG GmbH. A fiber optic cable is built into chamber 1. A special Dish Insert must be used in the chamber where the pH optical fiber sensor is installed. There are three different Dish Inserts available depending on the dishes used:

Fiber Optic Cable in chamber 1
Special dish insert hole for Optical Fiber Sensor
The fiber optic cable is attached to a cover plate on the rear panel. When this cover plate is removed the fiber optic cable will follow out. An O-ring in the rear panel protects the cable from scratching against metal. A stopper is mounted on the cable inside to prevent the cable from being pulled out too far, thereby breaking the fiber.

G185 SensorTech External Temperature and CO2 Monitoring The CO2 sensor recommended is a widely used sensor from Vaisala (GMP 251). It is a 0-10% high precision IR CO2 sensor. Vaisala offers several devices to support this sensor; both standalone and built-in modules. The sensor is placed in the rear part of the filter holder. It measures the gas circulating in the incubator. The opening is closed by use of a plug as standard.
Port for external CO2 Sensor
G185 SensorTech has a hidden hole for a pin-type temperature sensor.

The opening is in the aluminum block on the left side, between chambers 1 and 2. It is designed for a 3mm diameter sensor. A suitable sensor is available as part number 22306, which is compatible with the K-Systems F100 thermometer The sensor can be used to detect temperature changes in the G185. This sensor works as an addition to the sensors inside the G185 and should not be used for calibration purposes. Hole for external temperature sensor (Pin Type)
