Abstract: A flow meter alarm device easily attached to and removed from a flow meter at various locations along the length of the flow meter. The device is compatible with flow meters which have a float for measuring flow velocity. The device preferably has two housings, extending from a third housing having a display surface, that define an area for receiving a flow meter. The extending housings are preferably drawn together by a threaded member thereby clamping the device onto the flow meter. A sensor mounted on the device, preferably an optical emitter coupled with an optical receiver, is able to detect the float. When the float is detected, a signal is produced by the device notifying that the flow rate has fallen outside a desired range. The device is adjustable to function with flow meters of various different dimensions.

Abstract: An apparatus for testing and calibrating respiratory therapy equipment. A single compact unit is pre-programmed to automatically valve in each selected test, and display pertinent parameters in a digital format. The system includes two flow transducers, one each for high and low flows, a regulated heater to test thermometers, and measurement circuits for checking the electrical insulation integrity of the equipment tested.
