When consumable part such as pressure-resistant cover (300) is installed
on a chemical solution injector (100), consumption degree data is read
from storage means such as an RFID chip of the consumable part and
temporarily held. If the consumption degree updated according to the use
of the consumable part exceeds the consumption criteria, a replacement
preliminary warning is outputted and the updated consumption degree data
is written in the consumption storage means (310) of the consumable part.
Since the consumption degree of a consumable part installed on a
mechanical device is automatically detected and a replacement preliminary
warning is issue to the user at an adequate timing, continuous use of a
totally consumed part, unnecessary replacement of a non-totally consumed
part is prevented.
