7.1 Garment Connections
There are two 12-way connectors on the front of the pump. They are covered
by a 2-part, hinged, rubber cover, which is secured to the pump by a strap. The
cover is fitted over both connectors when the pump is being cleaned to prevent
ingress of fluids.
The garments are connected to these two 12-way connectors, which are push-
fit and polarised to prevent incorrect orientation of the connectors. The following
pump/garment connections are possible:
•
If two garments are used (either two arm garments, two leg
garments, or one arm/leg garment and one garment insert), one will
be connected to the upper connector and the other connected to the
lower connector. The two connections are interchangeable - both
garments will inflate at the same time and to the same pressure.
•
If only one garment is used, it must be connected to the upper
connector and the rubber cover must be securely fitted to the lower
connector (folded as shown).
All garments (arm garments, leg garments and garment inserts) have multiple
chambers. The chambers are inflated in a pre-determined sequence.
The inflation of the chambers follows a preset pressure gradient, but the
deflation of the chambers is effectively instantaneous.
