**Weight does not include infusate.
Operating temperature The ACCUFUSER® and ACCUFUSER® PLUS systems are calibrated to deliver solution at the labeled nominal flow rate when the temperature of the infusate in the distal end (ACCUFUSER®) or bolus button (ACCUFUSER® PLUS) is 32° C (89.6° F) [normal skin temperature]. The flow rate increases approximately 1% per 0.56° C (1° F) increase in temperature.
Fluid viscosity ACCUFUSER®/ACCUFUSER® PLUS systems are calibrated using 5% dextrose in water (D5W) as the infusate. Flow rate increases as fluid viscosity decreases (e.g., using sterile water as the diluent will increase the flow rate by approximately 10%)
Head height ACCUFUSER®/ACCUFUSER® PLUS systems are calibrated with zero head height. Increased head height will cause increased flow rate (e.g., + 17"/+43 cm of head height will increase flow rate by approximately 12%)
