Ikus – the efficient all-rounder

The Ikus driving unit is designed for the stationary use of our EXCOR® and EXCOR Pediatric® blood pumps. Ikus meets all requirements regarding frequency of the pump, synchronous and alternate mode as well as varying driving pressure. While operating biventricular, both blood pumps can be controlled separately.

A laptop with an installed monitor program is integrated into the Ikus housing and all parameters can be adjusted and viewed.

High Safety through triple redundancy

The pneumatic system of the driving unit is based on a triple developed construction, so that in case of malfunction it is automatically switched to the next vacant system without interruption.
                  

In case of a breakdown of the supply voltage the installed charging unit takes over the power supply.

Acoustic and visible warning signals on the monitor inform the user of the current condition of the system.
