The enFlow IV fluid/blood warming system consists of three products: the Warmer (No. 980105VS), the
Controller (No. 980121EU), and the Disposable Cartridge (No. 980202EU/980200EU), which together form a
system designed to warm intravenous fluids and blood products to reduce hypothermia.
The Warmer is a small, lightweight, robust fluid warmer that heats blood, blood products, and intravenous
fluids to 40 ºC from flow rates of KVO to 200 mL/min.
The Controller displays a temperature readout in degrees C, and features a keypad, to control the clock and the
mute feature. Additionally, it converts AC line power to 28.5 Volts DC, and is used as a power source for the
Warmer.
The sterile, single-patient-use Disposable Cartridge is used as an in-line component of an IV infusion set to heat
fluids/blood being administered to the patient's body.
The Disposable Cartridge with IV extension set contains the same Disposable Cartridge described above. In
addition, it includes a sterile, single-patient-use IV extension set.
