Flow Characteristics
|
The fluid delivery rate for an Infu-DiskTM
pump is factory set. The rate cannot be changed
after it has been manufactured. Temperature, fluid
delivery pressure and viscosity that differ from the of the
Infu-DiskTM
pump's standard operating conditions will affect the pump's
delivery rate. The Infu-DiskTM pump's
standard operating conditions are 25°C ambient temperature,
fluid delivery pressure of 11 mm Hg and fluid viscosity of
0.89 cp.
