The description focuses on the physical and chemical processes of reverse osmosis and water treatment, with automated functions based on pre-set intervals and sensor readings (like conductivity and flow). There is no mention of learning, adaptation, or complex pattern recognition characteristic of AI/ML.
No
The device produces water for hemodialysis, which is used in a therapeutic procedure, but the device itself is not directly therapeutic. It's a water purification system, not a device that treats a patient's condition.
No
The device is designed to produce high-quality water for hemodialysis, focusing on purification and disinfection rather than diagnosing a medical condition.
No
The device description details a physical water treatment system utilizing reverse osmosis, pumps, valves, and other hardware components. It is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, the Gambro Central Water Treatment System CWP 100 – WRO H is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to produce water of adequate quality for hemodialysis. This is a process that supports a medical treatment (hemodialysis), but it does not involve testing samples taken from the human body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical process of water purification using reverse osmosis and heat disinfection. It describes the mechanical and operational aspects of the system for producing purified water.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
- Using reagents or assays for testing
The device is a water purification system used in a clinical setting (hemodialysis unit) to prepare water for a medical procedure. While the quality of the water is critical for the safety and effectiveness of hemodialysis, the system itself is not performing a diagnostic test on a patient sample.

Device Description
The Gambro Central Water Treatment System CWP 100 - WRO H is designed to produce water of adquate quality for hemodialysis, both chemically and microbiologically with an adequate flow, provided that the feed water complies with the existing standards for drinking water and has been properly pre-treated. The WRO or the base unit of the CWP system, operates under the principle of reverse osmosis (RO) which is the preferred method for the purificationof water for hemodialysis. This system removes at least 95% of the total dissolved salts (based on conductivity measurements) and more than 99% of the bacteria and endotoxins from the inlet water. The WRO H also include a heat disinfection unit for disinfection of the distribution system which utilizes hot water to minimize any form of microbial growth and biofilf formation. With this system, dialysis machines can be included in this heat disinfection cycle, provided that they have heat disinfection capability. This procedure is called integrated heat disinfection.
In order to ensure that the microbiological quality will be maintained, this system has:
- an automated disinfection procedure to keep the membrane surfaces clean and to . minimize bacterial growth;
- a hygenic design with smooth surfaces and a minimum of stagnant zones; .
- automatic flushing programs at preset intervals when the system is not in use ●
In addition, the WRO H has been designed to reduce water consumption by automatically regulating the pump speed to the actual demand of pure water.
After pretreatment (i.e. sediment filter, water softener, charcoal filter, etc.) the water enters an inlet tank (please refer to position 4 on the following diagram) via a solenoid valve (1). The inlet water tank (4) has a float valve (5) and an air gap to help isolate the flowpath from the municipal water system. The main pump (33) then creates a pressure of up to 20 bar that is required for the reverse osmosis process.
Pure water from the WRO unit is distributed directly to the distribution system in the hemodialysis unit via solenoid valves (48), (103), and (105). Excess pure water that has not been used in the hemodialysis unit is recirculated back to the inlet water tank (4) via solenoid valve (106).
In order to reduce water consumption, the speed of the pump is automatically adjusted so that the return flow of water is kept constant. Part of the reject water is recirculated back to the sucking side of the main pump via valve (71) to help minimize water consumption and to maintain a high flow velocity over the membrane surface. The rest of the reject water is, however, continuously sent to the drain via a needle valve (41).
The WRO unit utilizes a proportioning pump (45) and solution container (46) to proportion disinfectant during the disinfection cycle. The proportioning pump is disconnected from the flow path during normal operation.
The pure water line has a solenoid valve (36) for automatic flushing to drain at the start up, in conductivity alarm situations, every two hours, when the unit is in stand-by mode and at rinse during disinfection. The pure water line also has a solenoid valve arrangement to isolate the system from the distribution system during disinfection. The WRO unit has an overflow valve (64) on the pure water side to control pressure and to relieve pressure peaks.
Conductivity Monitoring
The conductivity of the inlet water and pure water are continuously monitored by two conductivity cells (32) and are presented on the display on the operator's panel.
Flow Monitoring
The following flow rates are monitored
- Inlet Water, Sensor Position: 3, Designation: F1
- Reject From the RO Unit, Sensor Position: 42, Designation: F2
- Return Pure Water from the Clinic, Sensor Position: 51, Designation: F4
These flow rates are used to calculate the following:
- Actual pure water consumption, . (F5=F1-F2)
- Outlet pure water flow, . (F6=F1-F2+F4)
All flow rates are presented on the operator's panel on request.
Heat Disinfection Unit
The heat disinfection unit consists of a tank (90) made of stainless steel and an electrical heater (91). The heater maintains the temperature of the pure water in the tank at either 60 ℃ (Low) or 90 ℃ (High). Heat disinfection of the pure water distribution system is initiated by the operator at the end of the dialysis day / session. A circulation pump (96) circulates hot water in the loop until the process is interrupted either manually by the operator, or at a preset time prior to the start of the next dialysis day / session. During the disinfection period, integrated heat disinfection with the dialysis machines can also be performed if the dialysis machines have a heat disinfection capability. The tank automatically refills with pure water from the WRO unit during the next operation. Heating of the water from 60 ℃ (Low) to 90 ℃ (High) takes approximately 2.5 hours if no circulation the loop takes place. During circulation periods the required time is longer because of heat losses and varies depending on the length and design of the system.
Heating Capacity
The heat disinfection unit is capable of maintaining 85 ℃ in a well insulated piping system with a maximum length of 150 meters.
