Introduction 

MicroQuark is an instrument designed for lung function screening; the core of the system is the “intelligent” flowmeter that, connected to  a 

Personal Computer (laptop or desktop), turns it in a complete spirometric lab. 
The system is composed by the turbine flowmeter, the measurement and data elaboration device (lightweight and ergonomic), the 
communication cable and by the Software pack.
