 FA Plus Test System 

4.

  Install the flow module into the test circuit. Align the flow direction arrow on the flow 

module with the positive direction of flow through the circuit; for ventilator testing the 
arrow should point towards the test lung or away from the “To Patient” port on the 
ventilator.

Bi-directional Flow 

(flow direction Arrow should be towards test lung)
