How to Do a Pressure Leak Test

The leak test measures leaks in a non-invasive blood pressure monitor, the hoses

connected to the monitor, and the pressure cuff.

Note

Before you do a pressure leak test on a monitor, do the pressure leak test
without the monitor to identify the leak rate of the Product. Use this leak
rate to offset the rate of the full system with the monitor connected.

Note

Put the NIBP monitor in “calibrate” or “service” mode to close the vent
valve, so the Product can inflate the pneumatic system. Refer to the service
manual for the NIBP monitor.

Connect the Product to the monitor and cuff as shown in Figure 37.
