Flow rate monitor with optical sensing chamber

摘要: A flow monitor including an optical sensing chamber and electronic controller which allows determination of exact drop volumes rates. In one embodiment, the forms part a gravity fed volumetric in IV system. another takes form urinary output urine collection Basically, comprises microcontroller responds to parametric information into system through keyboard variable detected by novel diameter detector. The controller, response being it, is able determine precise volume solution or passing respective systems. causes linear actuator control flexible pinch tube found Under mode operation, regulated size. time interval between drops. By selectively combining two modes fluid may be administered patient. Also forming are audible visual alarms alert user any malfunctions need correction.
