t:slim X2 Insulin Pump Water Exposure Rating
The t:slim X2 insulin pump carries an IP27 rating, tested to withstand submersion up to 3 feet (0.9 meters) for 30 minutes. This provides meaningful protection against incidental water exposure.
Your pump should not be worn while swimming, scuba diving, surfing, or during any other activities that could submerge the pump for an extended period of time. Your pump should not be worn in hot tubs, whirlpools, or saunas.
Take care not to wear your pump in situations where the pump could fall off and be lost.
With Tandem insulin pumps, you have the option to temporarily disconnect. The Tandem designs make this simple and disconnecting is quick: Unclip the infusion set from your site, set the pump aside, and reconnect when you’re done. Many users find the workflow a natural part of water activities.
If you use the Stop Insulin feature while disconnected, Tandem pumps record the suspension. When you reconnect, Control-IQ+ technology incorporates that history into its predictions and adjusts accordingly.
ALWAYS inspect your pump for damage. If there are signs of fluid entry, discontinue use of the pump and contact Customer Technical Support - 877-801-6901.
