Pressure Accuracy Verification
u
Pressure Accuracy Verification is a function to inspect the accuracy of pressure measurement by the NIBP
module inside the device. Technician or equipment manager should do pressure accuracy verification every
half year or year in order to check if the pressure measurement still conforms to the requirement of product
performance. If the deviation is beyond the declared specification, it is permitted to return it to factory for
repair or calibration.
Before verification, please connect the monitor to a precise pressure meter such as a mercury pressure
mete, which is used as the reference meter.

Mode 1: Automatic inflation
The inflation can be activated by Monitor so the pressure will increase automatically until it exceeds the
limit value specified in table A. This pressure limit value depends on the patient type selection as shown in
