6. Pressure Adjustment
The pressure control mechanism is located on the front
of the pump and ranges from 30-60mmHg. The pressure
exerted by the garments on the leg can be adjusted by
turning this knob. Turning the knob clockwise increases
the pressure; counterclockwise decreases the pressure.

The recommended pressure setting is 40 mmHg.
Alternatively, use the pressure prescribed by the
treating physician.
The Flowtron Excel pump pressure monitoring system
is independent of the pressure control and delivery
system, providing added reliability and safety. The
digital display indicates the actual pressure that is
delivered to the garments, and provides immediate and
continuous feedback regarding pump performance.
The pressure display is used for the following functions:
Pressure Output
Check
After turning the pump on, check that the pressure
display is showing the desired output pressure when the
garments are inflated. Visually recheck the display at
regular intervals.
Adjusting the Output
Pressure
If necessary, the pressure can be adjusted during the
active inflation period, by rotating the pressure control
knob until the desired pressure is displayed.
System Calibration
Check
To confirm the calibration accuracy of the pressure
control and display, perform the following check each
time the pump is turned on:
During normal operation when the pressure display
reads , the pointer on the pressure control knob
should be located within the 40 mmHg arc on the front
panel .
If the display reads 40 but the control knob is not within
the 40 mmHg arc, the pump should not be used and
referred to service for recalibration.
