Item Description
At Roche, we believe in giving people choice so that they can select the best pump to suit their needs. That's why you can now choose the Accu-Chek insulin pump only for greater flexibility, or with the Accu-Chek Mobile and mySugr Pro app, for automatic blood glucose data transfer and bolus advice* from the mySugr app.
Features of the Accu-Chek Insight insulin pump
- Sleek and modern design for more comfortable wearing
- Pre-filled cartridge of insulin - no need to fill cartridges by hand
- Very low basal rates to suit individual needs
- Variety of cannulas & tubing lengths for flexible wearing of the pump
* The mySugr Pro app with bolus calculator has not been evaluated for use in under 18's and therefore is not intended for use in this population.

Temperature ranges:
Operation: +5 °C to +37 °C (+41°F to +99 °F)
Air humidity (Relative Humidity):
Operation: 20% to 90%
Barometric pressure:
Operation: 50 to 106 kPa (500 to 1060 mbar)
Power supply:
- One 1.5-volt AAA Alkaline (LR03) or Lithium (FR06) battery
- Batteries should have a minimum capacity of 1200 mAh. Do not use carbon zinc or nickel cadmium (NiCd) batteries
Basal rate:
Minimum = 0.02 U/h , Maximum = 25 U/h E.g. Below 0.19 U/h, delivery is close dependent. 0.19 U/h and above delivery every 3 mins
Bolus:
- Maximum bolus amount per delivery is 25 U
- Standard, Extended and Multiwave Boluses, are adjustable in increments of:
- 0.05 U (up to 2.0 U)
- 0.1 U (2-5 U)
- 0.2 U (5-10 U)
- 0.5 U (10-20 U)
- 1.0 U (20-25 U)
- Duration of Extended and Multiwave Boluses are adjustable in intervals of 15 minutes up to 24 hours
- Multiple boluses can run in parallel
Temporary basal rate:
- Adjustable in 10% increments, from 0 - 250%
- Duration is adjustable in 15 minute intervals, up to a maximum of 24 hours
- Last duration programmed is the default setting for the next Temporary Basal Rate
Bolus delivery rate:
- Very slow = 3 U/min
- Slow = 6 U/min
- Standard = 12 U/min
- Moderate = 9 U/min
Maximum pressure:
350 kPa (3500 bar)
Maximum quantity delivered at a single fault condition:
≤ 0.5 U in case of failure of the pump it would give an alarm and go into the stop mode after an over or under delivery of max. 0.8 U (normative requirement)
Maximum Time to occlusion alarm:
160 U, Glass Cartridges (Pre-filled):
- Medium basal rate, 1.0 U/h: ≤ 2.2 h
- Minimum basal rate, 0.02 U/h: max 144 h due to tubing/cartridge change
Data storage capacity:
There are two types of data storage capacities:
- Data with time and date are safely stored in memory for about 1 hour after the battery has been removed
- Other insulin pump settings and the event memory are saved, regardless of battery power level and period of time the insulin pump has been without power
Cartridges:
Pre-filled 1.6 ml cartridge also available
Infusion sets:
Accu-Chek Insight infusion sets with a proprietary adapter
Data transfer:
Bluetooth® wireless technology
Water tight:
IPX8 - Protected against the effects of temporary immersion in water under standardised conditions (1.3 m/4.3 ft for 60 minutes) ex-factory
Safety systems:
- Alert system
- Beeps
- Information on the display
- Vibrations
- Dual microprocessors
- The Insulin pump is controlled by two microprocessors. The safety concept is based on one processor (supervisor processor) supervising the other (main processor)
- Whenever a defect or fault occurs in the main processor, it is identified by the supervising microprocessor. The motor is immediately switched off and an "Error E7: ELECTRONIC ERROR" occurs. Conversely, the main processor can also determine, at any time, whether the supervisor is working correctly
- The motor constitutes another important safety component. In combination with the main and supervisor processors, the brushless motor provides the best possible reliability and accuracy in insulin delivery
