2. Attach the clamp-on ABD/Flow sensor to the blood circuit
tube. (Figure 1-35, Figure 1-36)
Fully insert the blood circuit tube into the detection window of the clamp-on
ABD/Flow sensor.

• When the air bubble detection sensitivity is high, attach the sensor so that
the ABD/Flow Sensor detection window and the direction of gravitational
force are orthogonal. It may not correctly detect air bubbles. (Figure 1-36)
