Audio Bolus Range:
• 0.1 - 2.0 U in 0.1 U step
• 0.5 - 10.0 U in 0.5 U step
• 1.0 - 20.0 U in 1.0 U step
• 5.0 - 35.0 U in 5.0 U step
Flow Rate Accuracy*
Delivery Mode Accuracy
Bolus +/- 5%
0.100 U/hr Basal and higher +/- 5%
*Accuracy rate will be lower at basal rates less than 0.100 U/hr.
Occlusion Detection time to alarm**
Typical Maximum
Bolus 3 units or more 8 sec. 30 sec.
0.025 U/hr basal 72 hrs. 120 hrs.
1.0 U/hr basal 90 minutes 3 hrs.
**Certain factors, such as the presence of air in the infusion set or the cartridge and/or
ambient temperature changes, can delay an occlusion alarm.
Occlusion Pressure Threshold: 75 kPa typical, 241 kPa max.
Bolus Volume after Occlusion release: (1.0U/hr basal)
• 1.0 U max with occlusion sensitivity set to high
• 3.0 U max with occlusion sensitivity set to low
Delivery Rates:
• Bolus, under 1 U: 1.1 to 2.2 U/sec
• Bolus, 1 U or more (normal delivery speed): 0.5 to 0.9 U/sec
• Bolus, 1 U or more (slow delivery speed): 0.2 to 0.4 U/sec
• Prime: 1.8 to 2.9 U/sec
Insulin Types Used: Rapid-acting U-100 insulin or regular (short-acting) U-100 insulin
Basal Rate Range: 0.025-25 U/hr in 0.025 U/hr steps
Bolus Range: 0.05-35 U in 0.05 U steps
