Discussion of the exemplary embodiment of the sensor elements is included above.
  • the pumping cassette in use is as a mixing cassette as part of a hemodialysis system.
  • the mixing cassette would be used to mix dialysate to feed a dialysate reservoir outside the cassette.
  • the cassette would be connected to two containers of each citric acid and NaCl/bicarbonate.
  • Two metering pumps are present in the cassette, one dedicated to the citric acid and the other to the NaCl/Bicarbonate.
  • one metering pump works with two source ingredient containers.
  • the NaCl/Bicarbonate is a powder and requires the addition of water to create the fluid source ingredient solution.
  • wafer is pumped into the first fluid inlet and into the source containers of NaCl/Bicarbonate.
  • Both pod pumps can pump out of phase to rapidly and continuously provide the necessary water to the source containers of NaCl/Bicarbonate.
  • the citric acid is pumped by a metering pump into a pod pump and then towards the mixing chamber. Water is pumped into the pod pumps as well, resulting in a desired concentration of citric acid. Sensor elements are located upstream from the mixing chamber to determine if the citric acid is in the proper concentration and also, the pod pumps can pump additional water towards the mixing chamber if necessary to achieve the proper concentration.
  • the NaCl/Bicarbonate is pumped by the second metering pump and into the fluid outlet line upstream from the mixing chamber.
  • the citric acid and fluid NaCl/Bicarbonate will enter the mixing chamber.
  • the two source ingredients will then mix and be pumped out the fluid outlet.
  • sensor elements are located downstream from the mixing chamber. These sensor elements can ensure the concentration of the finished solution is proper. Also, in some embodiments, a valve may be located downstream from the fluid outlet. In situations where the sensor data shows the mixing has not been successful or as desired, this valve can block the dialysate from flowing into the reservoir located outside the cassette.
  • addition metering pumps can be includes to remove fluid from the fluid lines. Also, additional pod pumps may be included for additional pumping features. In alternate embodiments of this dialysate mixing process, three metering pumps and two mixing chambers are used (as shown in FIG. 9 ). The citric acid, salt, and bicarbonate are each pumped separately in this embodiment. One mixing chamber is similar to the one described above, and the second mixing chamber is used to mix the salt and bicarbonate prior to flowing to the other mixing chamber, where the mixing between the citric acid, NaCl/Bicarbonate will be accomplished.
  • the fluid lines, valving, metering pumps, mixing chambers, pod pumps and inlet/outlets are modular elements that can be mixed and matched to impart the desired mixing functionality onto the cassette.
  • the valve architecture varies in order to alter the fluid flow-path. Additionally, the sizes of the pod pumps, metering pump and mixing chambers may also vary, as well as the number of valves, pod pumps, metering pumps, sensors, mixing chambers and source ingredient containers connected to the cassette. Although in this embodiment, the valves are volcano valves, in other embodiments, the valves are not volcano valves and in some embodiments are smooth surface valves.
