STANDARD PRESSURE TEST - TESTING AIRFLOW AND CHECKING FOR A FAULTY COMPRESSOR
The control unit compressor is designed for longevity and covered by a two-year warranty from Froner Therapeucs Inc. From
me to me compressor failure can occur. The Standard Pressure Test should be carried out to check the compressor is working at
full operaonal capacity and that sucient airow is being generated to maintain maximum performance.
1. Equipment Set-up
Connect one air pipe to the rear
of the Sphygmomanometer and
another to the base of the
Airow meter. These two air
hoses are then connected by a
‘Y’ piece to form a single air pipe
outlet.
Check all pipe aachments are
secure before commencing the
test.
Inially set the equipment to
free-ow mode, i.e. no
resistance or backpressure
against the full ow of air from
the compressor.
Ensure the airow valve at the
front of the airow meter is fully
open by turning the valve
an-clockwise.
2. Switch Test
Aer the 2 minutes the “warm-
up” period has elapsed, connect
the ng of the pressure test
equipment to the female
connector on the side of the
control unit.
Ensure the equipment is set to
‘free ow mode’ The valve at
the front of the airow meter
should be fully open. If not, turn
an-clockwise to open the valve
to the maximum. With the
system in free-ow mode, the
ball inside the airow meter
should rise to a minimum of 11
litres per minute (LPM).
Close the airow meter valve
(maximum resistance). The ball
bearing inside the Airow meter
should drop to 0, and the
Sphygmomanometer pressure
reading should rise to a
minimum of 140 mmHg.
3. Results
If airow measurements fail to
meet the specied minimum
levels during any stage of the
pressure test, the compressor is
not operang at full capacity,
and replacement is required.
Proceed to Compressor
replacement procedure.
If all pressure and airow
measurements met the
expected levels, the problem
might be due to a leaking Air Cell
or another defect with the
Control unit.
Required Tools:
Phillips Screwdriver
Sphygmomanometer
Air Flow Meter
Required Parts:
Directly connecng the compressor to the pressure tesng equipment (Sphygmomanometer
and Air Flow Meter) conrms the system pressure readings at maximum and minimum airow
(in free-ow mode or with dierent degrees of backpressure applied). If the pressure test fails
and pressure readings do not achieve the required performance, replace the compressor and
repeat the test.
It is advised to allow the control unit to “warm-up” before undertaking the Standard Pressure
Test, to ensure the diaphragm inside the compressor has loosened and is operang at
maximum capacity. Aer opening the unit, reconnect power and allow the system to run for a
minimum of thirty minutes before commencing this test.
