enFlow system
Power source
Infusion pump capable of maintaining up to 200 mL/min
IV line set
Water bath
Source of distilled water or normal fluid - 0.5 L at 20 °C ± 2.0 °C
2 extension sets - 22.9 cm (9 in)
Thermometer - capable of measuring 10 °C to 60 °C accurate to ± 0.1 °C, plus 2 type-K isolated probes

Graduated cylinder, 100 to 500 mL
Purpose
This test is performed to ascertain that the output fluid temperature of the enFlow system, while using a 22.9 cm (9 in) extension set, is 40 °C ± 2.0 °C when
the input fluid is 20 °C through the flow rates of 25-100 mL/min (Standard Flows). Additionally, it is run to determine that the rise in fluid temperature is
>16.5 °C when the input fluid is 20 °C utilizing flow rates of 100-200 mL/min (High Flows).
