How does the lease concept work? For a period of two to three years, a defined number of uses is specified by contract from a minimum take-up of two devices. It is assumed that each device will be used at least once every working day (at least 25 times a month). This gives a total number of 50 uses a month assuming a minimum of 2 devices. The monthly usage can be increased at any time. The more often a device is used, the lower the costs per use. No investment costs are involved in acquiring the ASTOTHERM plus and ASTOPAD systems and/or the ASTOFLO. The equipment remains the property of STIHLER ELECTRONIC GMBH until the end of the contract period. The consumables required for use are delivered automatically every month, according to the number of uses specified in the lease agreement. In addition to the ASTOTUBE required for operating the ASTOTHERM, the "safety checks" which have to be performed annually are also covered by the lease and are not invoiced separately. The user will be invoiced separately for any repairs required which are attributable to mechanical damage or incorrect handling. We recommend that you take out insurance to cover leased equipment. Example: 2 ASTOTHERM plus 220S for a contract period of 3 years:
2 items of equipment	ASTOTHERM plus 220S blood and infusion warmer
50 units/month	ASTOTUBE infusion extensions
