 Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
• Only assemble and operate high-pressure systems if you
know the correct safety procedures. High-pressure liquids
and gases are hazardous and the energy from them can be
released without warning.
• Do not put metal objects into connectors.
The Product connects to an infusion device through the inlet ports on the side
panel. The side panel also has the connections for drain hoses and accessories.
Connect Infusion Devices
Figure 3 shows the Product connected for a flow test with a 20 ml syringe
attached to one 3-way stopcock inlet. Use a syringe to prime the line before a
test. Fluke Biomedical recommends that you make all infusion device
connections to the Product through 3-way stopcocks.

Follow these recommendations when you connect to the inlet tubing circuits:
• Use adequate prime volumes (for example, 10 ml) to push through any
bubbles.
• Use the stopcocks at the inlet to prevent fluid backflow out of the inlet
between tests.
